About this property

Pet & Family Friendly Log Cabin On Family Farm

LOCATED IN THE NATURAL SCENERY OF WESTERN KENTUCKY JUST NORTH OF NASHVILLE, TN.

Family friendly, pet friendly and laid back is our mantra! The cabin sits in the middle of 700 acres so no neighbors, no street sounds and lots of open sky to star gaze at night, not to mention the OVERLOOK, be sure to ask where it is.
We have a pond you can fish on but bring your boots.. This is a farm and they are all natural!
At this time, we are not providing pillows or blankets.. be sure to bring your own.
We hope you don't mind dogs, because we have 4 rescues that run the farm! They are very friendly and lovable.
Be sure that everyone can swim and that no one will be left alone, there is no lifeguard on duty.
Pool is open from Memorial Day Weekend to Labor Day Weekend and is shared with the property owners.
There is no WIFI, this is your opportunity to check in to nature and check out of all the distractions!
We want you to have a relaxing experience at Burdoc Farms!

dogs must stay here

My husband and I, along with our 2 dogs, stayed on our way to moving from Chicago to Florida. Wish we could have stayed longer. The dogs LOVED the chickens and roosters and rabbits and dogs. Do plan do awaken early to sunlight and roosters! Worked great for us. Sara is awesome, pool was clean and ready to go, grounds were fantastic. Families and those with pets will love this farm. One star missing only because no grocery stores nearby! Not fault of farm, but come prepared.

Disappointed

This is a very beautiful area to stay. On arrival (5/13) we found that the pool was not open yet. Listing said it would open May 1. Also, refrigerator was not working and appeared to have been broken for a while (freezer temperature was 80 degrees). I messaged owner to let them know about the refrigerator and they thanked me for letting them know. No offer to supply coolers and ice or anything. I thought it was very poor customer service.

Fit our needs for our dogs. A full size bed and better mattress would have it better. Directions to tv and DVD would have been great. Definitely would recommend this place and would stay again.

Perfect getaway for the family!

We had a wonderful time at the farm! The cabin was great and the pool was very clean as the owners took care of it every day during our stay. It's a very large pool (with a deep end) that our son absolutely loved playing in! In their listing it says it's a shared pool but the owners were extremely nice with letting us use it like a private pool. The only downfall for me was that it only has one bedroom with dormitory-like sleeping arrangements but the fact that they allow larger dogs totally made up for it! The Overlook was absolutely breathtaking as were the farm grounds. Lots of wildlife to see as well! All-in-all our family had a great time and would definitely recommend staying at Burdoc Farms!

Girls weekend

My group loved every minute of our stay. The accommodations were wonderful. The farm was gorgeous. We were there for a girls weekend, but I could see having a wedding there would be beautiful. I loved the little photo opportunities that were set up. The pool was just what we needed. The restaurant in town recommended by the owner was delicious. It was quiet and wonderful.

Great Country Escape with a Pool

If you're looking for a private pool in an idyllic rural setting, this is a great choice. The accommodations are more down-to-earth than high luxury, like visiting a favorite aunt at her cool working farm, but the pool is refreshing and the secluded countryside is incredibly relaxing. Be sure to stop at the Crofton Country Cupboard and stock up on all the Amish canned foods and baked goods you could ever eat. Don't miss the overlook at the top of the hill, either. My 9yo daughter and I had an amazing Father's Day weekend. We hope to return.

Great family vacation

We had such a nice weekend. We loved the pool and being able to just relax. Sara was helpful in letting us know what was nearby and showing us the overlook. The only thing I wish we knew ahead of time was that while there are 2 grills on the property you must provide your own propane. We had brought lots of food to grill and would have brought a tank too if we knew that, but we had to run out and buy a tank so we could use the grill. We did enjoy our stay though.

Great unpkugged, relaxing stay

This location is beautiful and super relaxed. There is no internet so do be prepared to use a hotspot for that if you have kids with virtual learning. That was the only blip in our stay and was quickly remedied by communicating with Sara. The pool is great, the view of the night sky is wonderful and we definitely want to come back!

About the host

Hosted by Sara Shepherd

Host profile image
We are a family farm, owned by Sara and Keith Shepherd. What use to be a tobacco and beef cattle farm is now a conservation and agritourism farm located on 700 acres of rolling hills in Western Kentucky. If you like a family friendly and laid back atmosphere with nature, relaxing, watching the sunset and hiking some trails, then come spend some time on Burdoc Farms.

Why they chose this property

We have been on this farm since 1943 and now have the 3rd generation working on the farm.
We have 4 rescue dogs, so be sure you don't mind being around animals! We also have a pool with the cabin for your friends and family to hang out but don't be surprised if the Shepherd family takes a dip in the pool as well, so you might have to share with us!

What makes this property unique

There are some major sunsets at Burdoc Farms, it is the 2nd highest spot in the county! It is not uncommon for deer to run up in the back yard of the cabin in the afternoon! Wildflowers, wild blackberries or nature walks are available 24/7....Come to Burdoc Farms, a one of a kind rural experience for your whole family!
