A Nashville tradition, reimagined.
Since 1933, our grounds have been a sanctuary on the banks of Marrowbone Creek. We are currently closed for a thoughtful restoration—quietly evolving into a working herb farm, artisan woodlot, and future cabin retreat.
Located just 20 minutes from downtown Nashville, yet a world away from the friction and pace of modern life. Tucked into the quiet valley of Marrowbone Creek, we offer an immediate escape—where the neon fades into night skies, and city noise is replaced by the rustle of the timber.
Close to the city. Deep in the woods.
The Vision
For almost ninety five years, families have gathered here to swim, share stories and slow down. While the old catfish kitchen and swimming pool are resting, our spirit of hospitality remains unchanged.
We are breathing new life into this historic property and trading the roar of the old summer crowds for the quiet hum of a working landscape. The Rawlings is becoming Rawlings Farm -- an intentional, agrarian escape designed to reconnect our family with the community, nature and heritage.
The Farmstead
Cultivating organic culinary herbs—dill, cilantro, parsley, and basil—bringing intentional, small-batch provisions straight from our soil to local tables.
Seasonal Firewood
Sustainably managed and seasoned wood production, cut to bring the crackle and warmth of the estate to your home hearth.
The Cabins at Marrowbone
A footprint for the future. We are designing low-impact, modern tiny cabins and intentional outdoor gathering spaces along the creek.
