Deep Roots Retreat is a beautifully restored historic home in Kingston Springs, Tennessee, just 25 minutes from Nashville. Originally the 1900 two room Cedar Hill School, this pet friendly retreat blends small town charm with modern comforts like WiFi, a full kitchen, washer and dryer, and peaceful outdoor space. Set in a quiet rural setting near the Harpeth River and local hiking, this home is perfect for couples, families, or friends looking for a relaxing getaway close to nature while still being an easy drive to Nashville dining and music. Deep Roots has been part of our family for five generations. The walls were crafted by my grandfather, and the custom cabinets and shelving still reflect his workmanship today. Each room carries stories of laughter, celebrations, and everyday life. Granny’s legacy lives on in the kitchen where her biscuit cutters still hang. More than a place to stay, Deep Roots Retreat invites you to slow down, settle in, and be part of something that has stood the test of time.

It was such a lovely quiet place. Just what we needed to take a rest from our travels. We loved sitting on the front porch and listening to all the birds.
Our stay was great. It’s a beautiful quiet setting. You can listen to the wildlife playing around in the woods. The kitty cat added a nice country touch.

The hosts thought of everything! The home was so cozy and warm (a warmth that comes from the heart). The hosts have created a stunning retreat and I am already looking ahead to my next stay at their lovely home.
This is such a quaint white farm house in a beautiful location. The check-in process was so easy, and we would highly recommend this house to anyone who enjoys small town charm.
Great country home close to State park/hiking trails . Real Tennessee country feel just minutes from groceries and fast food in nearby town. Really enjoyed our family vacation. Was a great rental/experience.
Beautiful and quiet country farmhouse with tons of charm and history to call home for our trip to Nashville! We loved the attention to detail, the country farmhouse decor, the sweet extras left by our hosts to make our stay more comfortable. Loved it!
We had a wonderful stay at Deep Roots Retreat. This is a wonderfully decorated home with all the conveniences. Especially loved the coffee bar. The location is ideal, close to hiking trails and beautifully situated in the Tennessee hill country. I highly recommend this property.
Kept finding ourselves saying, "What a nice touch!" regarding how the house was set up for us. Great location for proximity to hiking, outdoor activities, and still close to Nashville. Great visit!
I could not have enjoyed this house more! It was very rural which is a definite plus for me. The beds were amazing! We had a carton of fresh eggs on the table. Anything and everything you would need in the kitchen. Although this place was in a rural area it was very easy to get to anywhere you wanted to go. Definitely recommend a lengthy stay here as you won’t want to leave! Thank you so much for letting us experience your home!

About the host
Hosted by Alicia Mayes
Mario and I are longtime Middle Tennessee locals, and Deep Roots Retreat is my Granny’s house. We restored it with a lot of care, keeping its history while making it a comfortable place to truly relax. We love hosting because we know how special it feels to arrive somewhere and immediately slow down. Our goal is for guests to feel welcome, settled, and at home from the moment they walk in.
Why they chose this property
This area is home to us. Kingston Springs has a quiet, rural feel with deep roots and a strong sense of community. We love the slower pace, the nearby river, and being surrounded by nature, while still being close enough to Nashville when you want it. It’s peaceful, grounded, and just feels right.
What makes this property unique
Deep Roots Retreat is a family home with a lot of history. It’s been thoughtfully restored and filled with personal touches that make it feel warm and inviting. The porch, the quiet setting, and the overall sense of calm are what guests seem to love most. It’s a place to rest, unplug, and enjoy simple moments.
