Crockett's Retreat @ Muletown Farm • Fishing Pond • Fire Pit • Horse • Sunsets

One of the things we love most about this farm is you're just a short drive from Nashville and Franklin but when you come back here, life slows down.

We came here thinking we were going to restore an old farm, but the truth is this place restored us too. That’s the kind of peace we hope people find when they visit..

This farm has quite a story behind it. The land was originally part of a larger parcel granted by George Washington to Colonel Grant for his leadership during the Revolutionary War.

Over time, the property made its way to the Armstrong family, who came here from South Carolina and worked the land for many years. Local history also says that Davy Crockett spent many nights here on the farm while traveling through the area, which is one of our favorite stories connected to this place.

The log walls of this cabin have been standing here for generations, and it’s pretty amazing to think about the people who have gathered inside them over the years. There’s something about this place that sparks creativity. The quiet and history of the farm inspired my husband to write a book while we were in the process of restoring it.

Eventually the farm was owned by Dr. George, a beloved livestock veterinarian in Maury County. After he passed away, the property sadly fell into disrepair for a time.

When we found it, we could see the history and the potential right away. Since then, we’ve been slowly bringing the farm back to life and turning it into the kind of peaceful hobby farm and gathering place we knew it could be.

Our hope is that when people come here they can slow down, breathe a little deeper, enjoy the land, and leave feeling a little more refreshed than when they arrived. And if you stay with us, you’re really becoming part of the next chapter in the farm’s story.
