Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.
This cozy cabin features 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, a full kitchen, and a comfortable living room, making it the perfect place to slow down and enjoy a few quiet days on the farm.

Start your morning on the porch with a cup of coffee, wander the property, explore the old barns, meet Dixie the horse, or try your luck fishing in the pond. In the evening, gather around the fire pit under the string lights and watch the sunset over the fields.

This is the kind of place country songs are written about.

⭐️Country music fans shouldn't miss the Hardison Mill Farm.

⭐️The farm is conveniently located just 10 minutes from Downtown Columbia, 45 minutes from Franklin, and less than an hour from Nashville.

⭐️This farm has quite a story behind it. The land was originally part of a larger parcel granted by George Washington to Colonel Grant for his leadership during the Revolutionary War.

Over time, the property made its way to the Armstrong family, who came here from South Carolina and worked the land for many years. Local history also says that Davy Crockett spent many nights here on the farm while traveling through the area, which is one of our favorite stories connected to this place.

It's pretty amazing to think about the people who have gathered on this farmover the years. There’s something about this place that sparks creativity. The quiet and history of the farm inspired my husband to write a book while we were in the process of restoring it.

Eventually the farm was owned by Dr. George, a beloved livestock veterinarian in Maury County. For decades, Dixie’s Cottage actually served as his veterinary clinic. After he passed away, the farm sadly fell into disrepair for a time, until we began slowly bringing it back to life.

When we found it, we could see the history and the potential right away. Since then, we’ve been slowly bringing the farm back to life and turning it into the kind of peaceful hobby farm and gathering place we knew it could be.

Our hope is that when people come here they can slow down, breathe a little deeper, enjoy the land, and leave feeling a little more refreshed than when they arrived. And if you stay with us, you’re really becoming part of the next chapter in the farm’s story. Guests have the cabin, porch, and fire pit exclusively to themselves.

Hi! I'm Holly. I fell in love with this 31-acre farm in 2017 and knew right away it was something special. My family was looking for a peaceful place to slow down and get away from the busyness of life, and this land became that for us. We came here thinking we were going to restore an old farm, but the truth is this place restored us too. Now we love sharing it with guests who just need a place to relax, breathe a little deeper, and enjoy a little farm life for a few days.
