Nature Lovers Family Friendly Farmhouse near Pickwick Lake | Other in Olivehill
4 Bedroom Place in Olivehill
New high speed fiber optic internet!
Downing Hollow Farm is a 35 acre farm nestled in a hollow in the rolling hill country between Memphis and Nashville. Located in Middle Tennessee east of Savannah TN, Olivehill is 30 minutes from Pickwick Landing State Park and 30 minutes to Natchez Trace Parkway. It's a magical place full of sunshine and babbling creeks and mysterious forests. Watch the fireflies lift up from the pastures, hear the whippoorwill sing her lonesome song and enjoy the cool air drifting down through the hollow.
The farmhouse has central heat and air and is very comfortable throughout the seasons. Big windows allow lots of natural light to filter in and there's always a nice view from every window. The kitchen is fun to cook in cause there's room for friends and family to help out. We have lots of board games and lots of DVDs for adults and children. Two porches to relax on, the back porch is screened in where one can hear the babbling creek a stones throw away, and the front porch looks out over the green pastures and the wooded ridges in the distance. Bring your dogs and your instruments and just kick back and enjoy the peacefulness of the hollow. I also have an outdoor wood-fired oven, fire pit, charcoal grill and a hammock that guests can use. Through the summer, you’ll encounter migratory and native birds, hummingbirds, butterflies, lizards, raccoons, groundhogs, foxes, deer and owls along the paths cut through the pastures of wildflowers. Yes, and the occasional snake. Lot's of hiking around the property and a small waterfall about 45 min hike along the creek.
Guest access
Our country road is paved well in spots, bumpy in some spots. GPS may take you on a wrong turn so please ask for driving directions. Our driveway is a grassy lane leading way, way back into the hollow. Take it easy there for sure! There are outdoor security cameras at the entrance to the driveway, the barn and the greenhouse. They are actively monitored for vehicles coming and going.
Downing Hollow Farm is located 6 miles off the the Trail of Tears National Scenic Highway and 30 minutes from the Natchez Trace Parkway. Canoeing and kayaking just 6 miles down the road. If you are a Civil War buff then Hardin County is the place to be. Shiloh National Park and Battlefields are an easy drive just 30 minutes away from the farm. Even closer is the Tennessee River Museum in Savannah and the Crump Flea Market across the Tennessee River from Savannah. Catch record-breaking catfish in the waters of Pickwick Lake at Pickwick Landing State Park, 30 miles away. There you can access swimming areas, boat rentals, jump off waterfalls, golf and eat fried catfish and hushpuppies at the local restaurants.
