The Homestead | Pet-Friendly Farm Retreat near Birmingham

The Homestead at Blackberry Lane Farm

Step back in time without sacrificing modern comfort at The Homestead at Blackberry Lane Farm. Built in 1812 and thoughtfully restored, this historic three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath cabin sits on 40 peaceful acres in Chelsea, Alabama, offering a one-of-a-kind farm stay just minutes from Birmingham.

Inside, you’ll find original hand-hewn beams, wide-plank wood floors, and the timeless character of a home that’s been welcoming guests for more than two centuries, along with a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable living spaces, and everything you need for a relaxing stay.

Outside, slow down and enjoy life on the farm. Sip your morning coffee on the screened porch, watch the longhorn cattle and horses graze, stroll to the pond, or gather around the Cowboy Cauldron grill for dinner under the stars.

Whether you’re planning a family getaway, a couples’ weekend, or simply looking to escape the everyday, The Homestead offers the perfect blend of history, nature, and Southern hospitality.

As featured on television with Ozzy and Jack Osbourne, this unforgettable cabin has become one of Alabama’s most unique getaway destinations.

Planning a wedding, reunion, retreat, or special event? Blackberry Lane Farm also hosts private gatherings. Please contact us for custom event pricing for groups of more than 10 guests.

Thank you for considering Clements Vacation Rentals. We hope to welcome you back for this stay—or another one of our distinctive destinations in Alabama, Georgia, or Florida.

About the host

Hosted by Susie Clements

Host profile image
At Clements Vacation Rentals, we believe the best vacations aren't measured by where you go—they're measured by the memories you make while you're there.

We're Randy and Susie Clements, a family-owned business passionate about creating unforgettable places for families and friends to gather. What began as a single vacation home has grown into a thoughtfully curated collection of historic farm stays, luxury mountain retreats, and beachfront escapes across Alabama, Georgia, and Florida.

Every property in our collection has been personally selected, renovated, furnished, and cared for by our family. Randy's years as a general contractor and Susie's background in property management have allowed us to create spaces that are beautiful, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed down to the smallest detail.

Our mission is deeply personal. As parents of a son with significant special needs, we understand how meaningful it is to find places where families can truly relax, reconnect, and feel at home. That perspective shapes every decision we make—from the layouts we choose to the amenities we provide and the level of care we offer every guest.

Today, our family business has grown alongside our own family. Our children, son-in-law, and two grandsons all play an important role in this journey, and we're grateful to share our love of hospitality with every guest who walks through our doors.

Whether you're staying in a 200-year-old homestead, a luxury treehouse overlooking the North Georgia mountains, or a beachfront retreat along Florida's Forgotten Coast, our hope is the same: that your stay becomes the backdrop for moments you'll remember long after you've returned home.
From our family to yours, welcome to Clements Vacation Rentals.
