1 night at Baker Hollow Farm in Nashville

My boyfriend and I stayed at the beautiful cabin for 1 night. We arrived late at night but they still welcomed us, showed us how to get to the cabin and how everything works there (outside shower, lights, power etc.). The cabin was very hidden from everything, very quiet, it felt like a real nature retreat. The whole property itself was also absolutely stunning, they have the sweetest animals, honestly they were so andorable and friendly, and you guys were so nice! Thank you again for everything! Btw, the dog and that one lighter brown horse are so cuddly and happy for visitors 😍 we would’ve loved to stay longer but we were on a tight time schedule.

Weekend Trip to The Slab (by the Barren)

My husband, our 2 Shih Tzu’s, and I came here for a relaxing weekend and it did not disappoint!! Carrie and the crew were very nice and helpful. They have two dogs that are friendly too!!! There is water slides, dirt bike/ four wheel trails and plenty of camping areas. The water is amazing and clear!! We will definitely be back soon! We highly recommend this camping spot ❤️

Weekend Trip to Hidden Timbers Homestead

I stayed here for my bachelorette trip and it was so much fun! Not only was Hazel such a fun and simple stay, but the property was awesome too. I especially loved the dogs and cat (+kittens) and the other fun surprises that came with our stay. Lauren and Jeremy are GREAT hosts. We felt right at home and we all said we wanted to come back and/or live on the homestead!

Weekend Trip to Hidden Timbers Homestead

Lauren & her husband were some of the most caring hosts I have encountered. We came here for a Bachelorette trip and we had so much fun and felt so safe. They helped us with anything we needed whether it was extra places or recommendations for fun activities. I 100000% recommend staying here and becoming BFFs with Oliver <3

Weekend Trip to Cedar Ridge Cabin

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!

1 night at Barren River Magic

I love every experience at Barren River Magic. This is my second time staying in the Tin Bin and it's a lovely, secluded spot still close to all the places you want to roam on site. 2D is a consummate host and the spaces are always interesting and comfortable. The land, however, is the real draw. Just being on site, in the woods and water, the fireflies at night, the stars, sitting by the firepit and just being...it is, in fact, Magic.

Weekend Trip to Cedar Ridge Cabin

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.

2 nights at Hidden Timbers Homestead

We enjoyed the clean and beautifully decorated bell tent. Perfectly nestled in the trees making a camping experience without the discomfort and work of traditional tent camping. It gave us the opportunity to disconnect from the hold of electronics and enjoy family time. In addition to the wonderful hosts and their family a highlight was the comfort of home with restroom facilities. Can’t wait to book our next stay!

2 nights at Barren River Magic

This is a truly magical camping location. It’s a very safe and secure area with multiple options of different glamp sites as well as traditional camping. The experience surpassed any ideas of expectations I could’ve even imagined. I highly recommend Barren River Magic.

1 night at Barren River Magic

Totum was a relaxing property maybe 150 feet away from a creek that was super relaxing to listen to all night. The campsite as a whole is super eccentric while still remaining cozy. 10/10

4 nights at Noble Pine Campground

We loved spending time at the farm! Kristen was a wonderful host with amazing communication! The glamping tent was great! We had 20-25mph winds most of our visit. We didn't even notice when we were in the tent, other than hearing it. The heaters kept us plenty warm on the chilly nights. 35°F was the coldest night and I had to turn one of the heaters down. The restrooms/showers were clean and well stocked. Highly recommend a visit to the farm! We would definitely return!!

My husband and I spent one night here after exploring Mammoth Cave National Parl. We loved how private and off grid it felt but still had all the cozy comforts .

1 night at The EH frame

Marie has a beautiful and tranquil property. I am a solo traveler and i felt very safe. The rushing stream was a peaceful sound. I stayed very cozy as it had turned a little cold and I wasn't prepared. Thank you Marie.

The entire property is thoughtfully composed with a generous host and beautiful surroundings with creek and river explorations, hiking trails, and bonfire ability. You have the option to be quite private or communal in your experience. Love this space and 2d as a host so much.

Weekend Trip to Mollys Ridge Glamping and Camping

Great private spot, wonderful rock for ring. Everything supplied for eating a meal and making coffee, taking a good hot shower! Thank you for thinking of the small things. We cooked steaks on the fire ring, it was perfect. The tent stayed warm with the propane heater!

2 nights at Barren River Magic

This site lives up to the name magic, 100%. Gorgeous, peaceful, well spaced out, just a lovely spot to be, the land feels GOOD. Highly recommend any of the glampsites, although primitive campers have great location options. The glamps are creative, well appointed, and each has a whimsy unique to itself. And don’t miss getting in the River, it’s cold but worth it!

The Slab (by the Barren)

Due to circumstances beyond our control, we are broken hearted to announce that we will be closing our doors at midnight on July 13th 2025. We want to thank everyone that has came out to the farm over the past five years and supported us. It was a genuine pleasure to have the opportunity to meet each and every one of you, and to share our beautiful family farm with you, your families and friends. We will be refunding anyone with reservations after the 13th of July 2025 and hope that you all can find another hidden gem like ours, and continue to enjoy and make memories in the great outdoors. Thank you so much for all of your amazing support, reviews, and recommendations over the years. Our hipcampers are what made The Slab such an amazing place, and we are truly sorry that things didn't work out to where we could stay open. Kent and I are still looking into other options as to how we could move forward in the future with the part of the farm that we still own. So stay tuned for announcements for 2026. You never know what the future holds...
