I loved this place! I booked it as a crash pad while I visited friends. I wish I had planned better, I would have booked it for all of us to stay. The place is really cool and Lisa is a helpful host.

Weekend Trip to Sacred Dog Ranch
This property is truly a hidden gem! The scenery is stunning — very peaceful, perfect for both camping and glamping. You can tell Lisa & Gary take great pride in keeping everything beautiful and welcoming. They’re incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Whether you’re looking to relax under the stars or enjoy a cozy glamping stay, this is the perfect spot. We can’t wait to come back! 🌿✨

1 night at Sacred Dog Ranch
Beautiful property with all the feels for a relaxing and simple place to chill. Lisa and Gary made me feel immensely welcome and I feel like I have new long lost friends that we've finally met back up again in this dimension. If you love nature, judgement free, artistic and creative expression type people and places, this is for you.

We had the best time at Sacred Dog Ranch this past weekend and feel like we made lifelong friends with Lisa and Gary. Our dog, Sage, played with his fellow Dal new friends, my daughter rode Fancy the gorgeous horse and we felt like instant family. It’s right outside Nashville and remote enough we didn’t feel like we were in a cookie cutter suburb. Lisa was so welcoming and generous with her authentic self. My kids and I loved our visit and will be back.

1 night at Sacred Dog Ranch
Sacred Dog Ranch is unreal! The hosts are the kindest people ever. We got to ride horses, hang out with the sweetest dogs, and even feed a fox (!!). The whole place feels open and peaceful—outdoor shower, hot tub, fresh tomatoes from the garden—it’s just the perfect spot to reset and recharge. Already dreaming about going back.

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.

Beautiful property and friendly hosts. My kids got to name kittens and enjoyed seeing all the livestock. We spent hours roaming around the gardens or in the woods, down to the creek. The cabin is very cool. My wife and I particularly enjoyed sitting on the porch for an afternoon rain storm. Quick drive to Lenny’s Country Kitchen for great food.

Group trip
Lisa’s Sacred Dog Ranch is a veritable Garden of Eden. Lisa and her family welcomed us with open arms to their beautiful home and gardens. They have stewarded the land with care and intention, cultivating a series of wonderful spaces complete with art, animals, and authenticity.

1 night at Sacred Dog Ranch
This was such a great experience and I will definitely be back next time I am in the area! Lisa was so welcoming and made sure I had everything I needed. I made friends with all the dogs and even got a little cat drool in my lap. The cabin itself was a work of art, literally, and I was spoiled for a place to sleep. If youre into art, this place is a haven. My only regret is that I had to wake up and leave early to beat the rain.

Weekend Trip to Sacred Dog Ranch
Lisa is super friendly and willing to go out of her way to accommodate you if possible. The cabin my friend and I stayed in was one room with a screened in front porch, it had a bunk bed with full or queen bed on the bottom. There was a mini fridge. No running water but she brought us a gallon of water and a couple cups. There is an outhouse nearby that seemed pretty clean, no smell! She’s working on improving the WiFi signal there. I used my own data. Was able to park right in front of the cabin. Lots of friendly dogs here. Recommend!

The only way to describe this really is that you are literally home when you are here. Rejuvenate and enjoy the magic that is Lisa and the sacred dog ranch. It's not just a place to stay while you're on your trip, this is a destination 💜

WILL BE REVISITING! The hosts are lovely, friendly, interesting people who will treat you like you’re a close friend. I brought my dog with me and she had a great time playing with their 8 dogs on the property, and the screened in porch is a game changer! There are a couple fun farm animals around. The cabin is perfect for a camping/shelter feel, a bed in a comfy decorated studio with windows. nothing too fancy just how we like it! Some of the cabins are still a work in progress so I’m very excited to visit Lisa and Gary in the future :) thankful to have found this and them!

1 night at Wooded Farmland
This is a great little spot to stay! It feels like you're way out in the country, but it's so close to downtown Nashville. Rustic, charming and semi-private with room to roam and a fire pit. Cody (resident dog) greeted us, just as he did a year ago. There's friendly goats, pigs and other animals on site. I've stayed twice now, nearly a year apart and will certainly stay again if it's available next time I'm in the area and need a spot. Communication with host was great and he was very accommodating. Highly recommend!

My boyfriend and I LOVED our stay at Sacred Dog Ranch. We had the best time! We stayed in one of the clamping cabins. It was very warm and clean. Decorated so cute as well! Lisa and Gary were amazing and some of the nicest people we have met. Lisa toured us around the beautiful property. Her and her husband have put so much hard work into making the property so beautiful and holistic. I highly recommend staying here! You will feel at peace here.

Weekend Trip to Sacred Dog Ranch
A great experience and escape from busy Nashville city life! I chose a cabin in close proximity to the main house though enough distance that felt private and quiet. Lisa and Gary were gracious hosts. I learned a lot from Lisa as she walked me around the ranch to meet the horses and tell the story how the property had been developed and worked into a magical get-away that is great for solitude camping or gatherings. Also, a great place for creatives to find inspiration and ignite a person's (or collaborators) imagination and visions! Sacred Dog Ranch is a mystical get away and perfect for meditation and alignment of mind, body and soul.
