About this property

This antique log cabin on Green Frog Farm is part of a settlement of restored historical buildings from around west Tennessee.
Guests will experience the quiet charm of a slower pace of life. Reconnect with history without the distractions of internet or television.

This unique cabin sleeps up to 5 with a full kitchen and bath. Note that the original corner staircase to the upstairs bedroom is narrow and may be difficult to access for some guests. A queen bed is in the downstairs bedroom which is adjacent to the bathroom. If you're traveling in a group, consider also renting the Cotton Gin Cabin which is nearby.

The cabin has central air & heat, fireplace, porches and outdoor grill. It's near a pond and catch & release fishing is allowed. It's located two miles from West TN Safari Park.

A free self-guided tour of the historic grounds of Green Frog Farm is included with your stay.

The Holly House is located in Green Frog Farm, a historic settlement off of Highway 412 between Jackson and Dyersburg, Tennessee. We're located about an hour east of Memphis and two and a half hours west of Nashville.

Our other nearby listing, the cabin in the Pines also accommodates five. If you're trying to decide which is best for you, consider that the Pines Cabin has a more private setting but open loft sleeping arrangements. The Holly House is closer to a main road and has separate bedrooms.

Step Back in Time

A great property to step back in time and so peaceful. We only stayed overnight, but the Holly House was quaint, but big enough for 3 adults and a preteen. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Wonderful step back in time!

Holly House Cabin was so cute. It had all the decor of it's period with many modern comforts. The furniture was comfortable. The porches are nice enough to spend the whole day on just relaxing. The setting of the historic buildings you can tour was a very nice bonus. Beautiful ponds.

About the host

Hosted by John and Nancy Freeman

I've been collecting and restoring historical buildings and artifacts in West Tennessee for 30 years. If you visit the cabin please take some time to see the other unique sites nearby, including a working Linotype machine and a cotton gin from 1910. I live in a log house on a farm with my wife, Nancy.
