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.

A darling place to stay!
The Air Stream was clean, nice decor, and had all the essentials plus a/c and good WiFi!
There was privacy from the other camping camper guests and the environment was peaceful.
The owner was kind and responsive.
It was super convenient tp nearby places of interest and the sweetest, dogs, pigs and chickens who came to visit us each day made it our chosen place to stay when we visit friends in the area.

So fun! We stayed the weekend here and didn’t leave after arriving. There’s a ton to do, hiking, an awesome creek, games, bon fire, TV, and a cute “panty” in the barn with glamping goods. The cabin also had a well equip kitchen with a mini fridge. Not to mention the sweet bucket shower with HOT water! Such a game changer. The hosts were so nice and helpful too!

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.

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.
