About the host
Hosted by John Durham
Laurel Ridge began with the purchase of a small farm in 2006 with a hunting cabin and a beautiful view of neighboring John’s Mountain. The owners retired to the property in 2007, expanded the property holdings and have managed timber, farm, and vacation rental and recreational enterprises of Laurel Ridge over the years. What started as a small farm and hunting cabin has grown to nearly 1000 acres of beautiful hardwood and pine forests. The owners hope that you will join them to share in the natural beauty and participate in some of the many opportunities in the surrounding area to enjoy the refreshing change of pace that is part and parcel of an Orchard House stay. If the owners can’t point you in the direction of something fun to see and do in the surrounding areas, then the Tide doesn’t Roll, the War Eagle doesn't fly and Alabama is not the Heart of the South! They look forward to seeing you at the Orchard House at Laurel Ridge soon…don’t be late. Come soon and come often……

Why they chose this property
We originally did not have plans to build or list the Orchard House for lease, but all of our friends that visited the farm just did not want to leave. They encouraged us to add the Orchard House so that we could share this beautiful secluded rural mountain area more readily with others.
