About this property
The Holly House at Green Frog Farm
This antique log cabin is part of Green Frog Farm Cabins is, 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.

About the host
Hosted by John and Nancy Freeman
Dr. Freeman has 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. Dr. Freeman lives in a log house nearby with his wife, Nancy. Their daughter Krista lives in her grandmother's ancestral home on the farm and manages the wedding venue and cabin rentals. She has renovated the cabins with beautiful interiors and landscaping to capture the rustic charm in these historic structures.
Why they chose this property
This property has been in our family for 5 generations, and we just welcomed the first representative of the 6th generation!
What makes this property unique
Green Frog Farm is a settlement of historic structures lovingly restored to evoke West Tennessee pioneer history. There are five 200-year-old bed and breakfast cabins to choose from that include access to the grounds and buildings filled with artifacts of daily life from the early 1900s. Our mission is to preserve history and share it with our guests in a comfortable, beautiful setting.
