About this property

Deep Roots Retreat, a historic home with a story to tell. Originally a 1900 two-room Cedar Hill School, this space has evolved through five generations of family history. Crafted by my grandfather, the home exudes warmth with custom cabinets and shelving. Each corner holds the echoes of laughter, tears, and celebrations, creating an authentic and loving atmosphere. Granny's legacy lives on, especially in the kitchen where her biscuit cutters proudly hang. More than a place to stay, Deep Roots Retreat invites you to become a part of its enduring legacy – a unique blend of history, warmth, and hospitality.

Spring break with the family

We had a great extended weekend at Deep Roots. We relaxed over the weekend, did a little hiking, sat around the fire, and played games. Monday and Tuesday we sent into the city to see museums and eat delicious food. Recommend the Parthenon and centennial park. First museum was great. Johnny Cash museum was amazing. The Harpeth River trails were beautiful and well maintained. Ten Star weekend!!

Great Tennessee Get-away

We had a wonderful stay at Deep Roots Retreat. This is a wonderfully decorated home with all the conveniences. Especially loved the coffee bar. The location is ideal, close to hiking trails and beautifully situated in the Tennessee hill country. I highly recommend this property.

Secluded and special getaway home

The Deep Roots house is a great place to get away! Every day we found another supprise thing that made us love the house and location more. It is on a very private road, so private that our puppy barked like crazy at the one and only car that drove by. You feel like you have the entire mountain to yourself! There are great short hiking trails LITERALLY across the street and longer trails a short country drive away. Nashville was an easy drive, and the small town Main St for food in Kingston Springs. The host was excellent with communication and you can truly sense the pride she takes in her family home.

Great weekend getaway

We really enjoyed staying at this home while visiting with our daughter at college it was adorable and very welcoming. We definitely appreciated the coffee, snacks and fresh eggs after our long drive. I especially enjoyed hanging out on the porch having coffee in the morning with the resident kitty. ❤️ Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Peaceful

Amazing! This was my first trip to Nashville and I absolutely loved everything about our stay. The house was clean, beautifully decorated and had so many extras...snacks, wine, coffee, cream and even a dozen of fresh eggs! After a busy day walking around the city, it was so nice to come home and sit on the pouch with a beverage and enjoy the quite. Alicia was so amazing with providing information about the area and the "to do's." I will be coming back!

Perfect farmhouse getaway

We so enjoyed our stay at this beautiful farmhouse. It is so very peaceful and quiet. You are close enough to Nashville and the surrounding areas to enjoy trips into the city. Our family enjoyed also being able to fish and enjoy the river and state parks close by. Alicia was a fabulous host. The fresh eggs, complimentary wine, and fresh flowers were a welcoming touch. We would not hesitate to stay there again!!

Beyond Amazing!!!!

I can’t say enough about our stay. We were made to feel at home and celebrated. The property is beautiful and secluded. The house it is perfect. You are made to feel so welcomed from the moment you walk through the door. From the fresh flowers and birthday balloon for my daughter. To the fresh eggs, wine and coffee. It was such an amazing stay. Couldn’t have asked for more. The home owner was a pleasure to work with also.

Cute and Clean

We brought four teenagers with us to stay at this cute school/farmhouse and it was a very comfortable stay. It was very clean and well-kept. There were thoughtful touches throughout such as extra toiletries in case we forgot our own, snacks, wine, and plenty of coffee. I loved the history of the house and the little reminders of its schoolhouse days. We spent our days out and about sightseeing, and it was the perfect place to land at the end of each day. When we had questions, the hosts were quick to respond. Honestly, our questions would have been answered had we just read through the well-planned out brochure the owners left us. ;) Nonetheless, they were patient and accommodating with us.

Deep Roots at Christmas

My son and grandsons stayed at this adorable farmhouse for the holidays. It was wonderful! Everything was as described. The house was cozy well equipped and comfortable. Alicia added many special treats for our stay- Christmas decor, farm fresh eggs, and fresh flowers! Snacks coffee and wine were available too! I highly recommend staying at deep roots farm! I especially appreciate that it is pet friendly! The house is secluded and very private. A bit off the beaten path but within a few miles of shopping and near the Harpeth river outfitters! I will be back again! Thanks Alicia!

Peaceful

This property was perfect for us on our anniversary trip. Close enough to Nashville to go out when we wanted, but quiet and peaceful for relaxing and reconnecting. Alicia was communicative and so sweet. She gave excellent recommendations and even kept us up to date with potential closures of the Harpeth State Park. We already want to go back.

Easy peasy, lemon squeezy!

The home was absolutely perfect for my son and I. We take a yearly trip to reconnect and spend quality time with our dogs and this was perfect. You can see, and feel the history of the home. I would image Grandma Hedgpath and the family shared a lot of wonderful memories here, as did my son and I. Thank you,

Lovely property!

My 82 year old father and I stayed here on our recent trip to the Nashville area. It was close enough to run into Nashville for a few hours but far enough away to spend the evenings gazing at the stars and listening to crickets and toads. Grocery store in town had everything we needed to make our dinners and the kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed for utensils. Having laundry facilities was an extra bonus! The house is exactly as pictured and the owner clearly takes pride in the property.
