4. The Farm at Grace Hill

37mi from Bardstown · 3 sites · RVs, Lodging
The Farm at Grace Hill is a living, breathing sanctuary — a blend of history, healing, and heart. It’s not just land; it’s a place where people, animals, and nature reconnect. The property holds deep roots, both literally and spiritually. At the soul of the farm is the herd — a group of special-needs and retired horses who have found peace and purpose here. They’re not “working” animals; they’re partners in transformation. The land feels like a retreat from the modern world: rolling Kentucky pastures framed by mature trees, the gentle rhythm of wind, birdsong, and horses grazing. There’s a sacred stillness in the mornings and a golden warmth in the evenings. Every detail — from the renovated 1977 Airstream tucked near the paddocks to the gardens and cozy corners — reflects intention, creativity, and care. It’s a space that invites both freedom and grounding, perfect for reflection, restoration, and inspiration.

The land that is now Terrapin Hill Farm has been a gathering place over the ages, and we have continued the tradition with music festivals, yoga retreats, weddings, and other celebrations. We believe that getting out in Nature... by camping, hiking, gazing at a campfire or at starry skies... is not only beneficial but necessary to our mental health. That's why we want to share our little slice of heaven with others.

We used this spot as a home base for our yearly hunting trip. It was perfect for what we needed. Everyone on the farm was friendly and welcoming! You’ll get to know the horses and cats as they wander around the farm and sometimes come up to you to say hello. The cabin was a great common area and place to wind down after a long day of being out in the woods.

This is a wonderful little spot to stay. I was here for 2 nights but it would work very as a long term stay. The trailer is set up expectionally well. It is easy to access and incredibly comfortable. Sitting on the deck you feel as if you are out in a swett valley but you are only 15 minutes from some great restaurants, hiking trails and parks. 25 minutes gets you to just about any place else in Louisville. I recommend the outdoor shower under the banana trees. Shelby does a wonderful job as a host and is very accommodating. I will definitely be back here.

This little place was the greatest. Was the perfect size and atmosphere was wonderful. They had nice setup to be able to have a campfire or even grill outside. Cute little pond as well. The bed was so comfortable. Was just perfect for 2. If we ever got back to Louisville we would love to try and rent this place again. Thanks for a great weekend.

I loved glamping in the camper on Shelby's land. The place is so comfy and the land is a dream. Saw the moon from the deck at night and woke up to the birds chirping. Every detail was perfect and the camper had every amenity you could dream of, including an amazing shower, both indoor and outdoor. Paradise in the country with first class amenities. Would definitely recommend and return.

The Cedar Ridge Cabin was impeccably clean and had the coolest off-grid gadgets! I maintained a similar cabin for several years and know how much work goes into such a spot. The craftsmanship and attention to detail at this cabin was inspiring to say the least! My son and I enjoyed the adventure hike down to the river and watching the nighttime critters in the field. Thank you for opening up this lovely spot to guests!

We loved staying in Danny’s cabin! Since we usually camp, this was the perfect mix of roughing it and glamping while still feeling like we were one with nature. Nothing was better than sitting on the porch and watching all the fireflies come out. Bring plenty of bug spray for the hike down to the river because there were lots of ticks.

Weekend Trip to The Tipi Village
It’s a cool campsite. The decorations and atmosphere make it very unique. The bed was good. It was a bit cold because we couldn’t find the remote for the heater. It’s a shared shower and kitchen, but it clean.

The land that is now Terrapin Hill Farm has been a gathering place over the ages, and we have continued the tradition with music festivals, yoga retreats, weddings, and other celebrations. We believe that getting out in Nature... by camping, hiking, gazing at a campfire or at starry skies... is not only beneficial but necessary to our mental health. That's why we want to share our little slice of heaven with others.

The Farm at Grace Hill

37mi from Bardstown · 3 sites · RVs, Lodging
The Farm at Grace Hill is a living, breathing sanctuary — a blend of history, healing, and heart. It’s not just land; it’s a place where people, animals, and nature reconnect. The property holds deep roots, both literally and spiritually. At the soul of the farm is the herd — a group of special-needs and retired horses who have found peace and purpose here. They’re not “working” animals; they’re partners in transformation. The land feels like a retreat from the modern world: rolling Kentucky pastures framed by mature trees, the gentle rhythm of wind, birdsong, and horses grazing. There’s a sacred stillness in the mornings and a golden warmth in the evenings. Every detail — from the renovated 1977 Airstream tucked near the paddocks to the gardens and cozy corners — reflects intention, creativity, and care. It’s a space that invites both freedom and grounding, perfect for reflection, restoration, and inspiration.
