The peaceful oasis that is the Perdue Farm house is surrounded by beautiful views and rolling fields on one of the area's oldest continuously-operating family farms.
Located 45 miles north of Nashville and 20 miles south of Bowling Green (Western Kentucky U and the National Corvette Museum), it's perfect as a base for a Girlfriends' Weekend or for visiting family in the Portland area.
In fact, this house is perfect for a retreat of ANY kind: starting or finishing your book, connecting with nature, stepping off the treadmill of modern life, escaping the hustle and bustle of the city, or rekindling romance for couples. The jetted whirlpool tub increases the relaxation factor. Most guests report the peacefulness of watching the deer families loping across the fields at twilight or dawn; others love sitting on the deck with their morning cuppa, listening to the birds chirp and trill in the maple and plum trees. And the big sky! It produces beautiful dawns and magnificent sunsets. Scattered across the night sky are so many stars, plus a clear view of moonrises and moonsets. Come see for yourself!

Mark - I'm so happy that you were pleased with my place. You were a wonderful guest...I do hope you give me the opportunity to welcome you again. All the very best, Lila
We have an annual vacation to Portland/ Franklin area, and this farmhouse has become our peaceful oasis for our trip for more than a decade, and we hope to continue this tradition for many years to come.

Diana - thank YOU for being an amazing guest. Happy to stand in for your favorite grandma anytime. :-)
Safe travels back home and DO come again soon.

Lila, once again thank you for opening your home. It's reassuring that we can always expect all the comforts of home when we visit family in Tennessee.
This was a nice and private home. Everything was perfect! Lots of kitchen gadgets and room for family to meet and prepare for a wedding. Would definitely book again!
Our trip was wonderful. The house sits in a quiet serene location, but close enough for us to go to the races at Kentucky Downs, see the show Shiners in Nashville, visit Mammoth Cave, and have some bourbon tasting in Bardstown. This is my favorite destination, and plan to return annually as long as Lila will have us.
The area was nice and quiet. The sunrise and sunsets were beautiful. Highly recommend.

Hi Patti - Thank you SO much. Thanks for being such a great guest.
BTW, my area is supposed to be getting fiber in our area, so I'll be able to get a Smart TV and offer streaming and solid TV watching. We hope you'll come back and give it a try.
Many thanks!

Thank you, Leeanna! We can’t wait to have you stay here again either!
All the very best,
Lila
The location of the home was very nice and peaceful. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and saw several deer in the fields each evening. Plenty of space for everyone and the kitchen was well equipped. My only reason for giving a rating of 3 is that the couch cushions were pretty worn out so sitting inside wasn’t very comfortable and the queen mattress in the back room sunk into the middle of bed.

Hello Darren and Happy New Year! We were privileged to be able to host you and your family and we are so happy it worked out for you.
We look forward to welcoming you again in 2022.
All the very best,
Lila
We lived in this house when our kids were little and it's great to be able to visit again. We're building & wanted to spend Christmas in a real house (not our camper) and this was prefect! We love this area and this farm.

Thanks so much, Michelle! What a lovely review. I'm so happy this worked out. Thanks for your understanding through the record low temperatures and the misbehaving furnace. Glad we got the furnace sorted out so that you could have a fun Christmas with family and friends on the farm.
All the very best for the New Year! Hope to see you around the neighborhood...or back at the house! Lila
About the host
Hosted by Property Manager/Owner
I grew up in Indianapolis. However, my father and his father - on back to the mid-1850s - were born and raised on this farm. Travel, photography, houses and this farm are some of my passions. California has been my home for over 30 years, but I come back here as often as I can. I love that VRBO gives me a way to support this house, yet block out time for myself and my family to enjoy it as well. Animals are also a passion - I have Valentina, a German shepherd who's 9; Frances, a 15-year-old calico cat that my previous German shepherd Cheechoo and I rescued as an abandoned kitten.
Why they chose this property
This is part of my 200-year-old family farm that I inherited from my mother when she passed back in 2005.
What makes this property unique
This is a peaceful property, surrounded by crop fields and woods. The house is light and bright and spacious. Based on guest reviews, I'd say the house is welcoming to everyone. This was the dream house for my mother and father...I think they'd be pleased that it provides an oasis of peace and quiet for our great guests!
