The Hollow is located in northern middle Tennessee, only fifty minutes East of Nashville. It is where the Nashville Basin begins to roll and forms the foothills to the Cumberland Plateau. Butterfly Hollow is centrally located between beautiful lakes, prestine rivers and some of the area's best State Parks and within a ten minutes drive to the historic towns of Carthage and Gordonsville. Stop in for a visit? Due to the intimate, natural setting and in respect to the privacy of our guests, we do ask that you call to make an appointment first. 615.683.4163 Directions to Butterfly Hollow From Nashville, follow I-40 East to Exit 254.
