We loved our stay at Shepherd’s Retreat! We had a group of 6 women come to town for a girls’ weekend, and we had a GREAT time! The host was super responsive to all of our questions, the pool was so clean and relaxing, the kitchen was fully stocked, and we got to feed and pet the donkey and all of the sheep!We will keep it in mind for future weekend getaways!
It is an amazing place! The house is so cozy and looking out over the pasture is so relaxing. We got attached to the sheep and all their babies. The host is really nice and helpful. I would highly recommend staying here!

What a wonderful place to stay! A perfectly peaceful place to come rest. My family enjoyed the house as well as beautiful outdoor space. It was perfect!
We had 5 adults staying and everyone had plenty of room. Loved all the beautiful antiques and artwork all over the house. Nice to have coffee and all the "fixins" provided :) Definitely would stay here again!
Can’t say enough about this place. Perfect place for reflecting on life & taking in natures beauty all at the same time. Would definitely stay there again. Owners very friendly & accommodating.
This house was clean and just perfect for us. We loved the location, just a mile from businesses, restarants, etc but felt as if you were in the country due to the setting and the surrounding acreage. We saw the sheep, deer, rabits, birds, squirrels, a chipmunk and a fox! We would definitely recommend!
Love this little slice of paradise. Nestled among the trees on a hill, life slows down where you can read in the hammock, feed the sheep, or float in the pool. This home has everything you could possibly need for a great stay. We will be back!
My college friends and I SO enjoyed this place to just be together, enjoy the pool, and reconnect! It's close to town but feels like it's FAR away. The owner is very attentive and there was nothing we needed that wasn't there. Would definitely recommend and hope to return!
I've stayed in the main house and in the cottage and love this place so much I almost hate to give it a glowing review because I want it to be available when I need it! I pretend the property is mine when I stay there. It's so beautiful and peaceful! 10/10 recommend
We have stayed at Shepard's retreat many times now. It is a beautiful country setting but near several cities for dining and entertainment. However, we love just spending our day outside around the pool or pond just relaxing. There are also sheep and a burrow for the kids to watch in the pasture.
Peaceful - and an accommodating owner who was available daily if we had needed anything. This was everything that my 4 sisters and I were looking for to be together for our "once a year reunion". We would definitely return to this property in the future and have already recommended it to others.
We were in Alabama for my 14yo’s baseball tournament and were looking for a way to double the trip as a family vacation. This was the perfect way to do it! All of his games were about 30 minutes away. There was something for everyone to do at Shepard’s Retreat. Property was well maintained, hosts were great, and we are leaving rested and reconnected!
I’ve stayed in all of Stewart’s properties and they don’t disappoint! Very attentive and there to assist with any issues. We enjoyed watching the sheep and burro in the fields…listening to the rooster crow in the am and the owl hooting at night. Comfortable nights under the porch just chatting. Highly recommended!
This was my second stay at Shepherds Retreat. In the summer of 2022, my husband, son and I visited and had a wonderful time. So this summer (2023), I reconnected with a friend of 20+ years here. It was exactly what we needed. We sat in the living room, looking out over the beautiful property and talked for hours. The home itself is wonderfully kept, comfortable, and has everything you need. And the pool is so clean and refreshing. I have nothing but good things to say about Shepherds Retreat and I hope to return again next summer for a third visit. If you are looking for a place to rest, relax, and retreat - this is it.
