Nestled on over a hundred acres of rolling Washtenaw County countryside, Hickory Lodge Farm is where generations have gathered to slow down, breathe deep, and remember what stillness feels like.
Each lodge is individually crafted from reclaimed Michigan timber and native stone, designed to offer a private sanctuary while remaining part of something larger — the rhythm of the farm, the whisper of the wind through old-growth oaks, the slow turning of the seasons.
Our signature lodge, seating up to twelve guests. Vaulted ceilings, a fieldstone fireplace, and a wraparound deck overlooking the meadow.
An intimate retreat for two, tucked beside a spring-fed creek. Copper bathtub, chef's kitchen, and private garden terrace.
A full farmhouse experience for families and small gatherings. Three bedrooms, a commercial-grade kitchen, and a games room.
At Hickory Lodge Farm, the experience begins before you arrive. From the farm-to-table breakfast prepared each morning with eggs from our own hens and berries from the hedgerow, to the evening fireside conversations beneath a sky full of stars — every detail is intentional.
Breakfast and dinner sourced from our pastures, gardens, and neighboring Michigan farms. Seasonal, local, unforgettable.
Twelve miles of private trails through old-growth forest, wildflower meadows, and along the creek. Maps provided at check-in.
Intimate weddings, milestone birthdays, and retreats. Our Cedar Ridge Lodge hosts up to 40 guests with full catering support.
An IBLA-dark-sky certified location. Our rooftop deck features a mounted telescope and quarterly meteor shower viewing events.
What makes Hickory Lodge Farm remarkable isn't just what we've built — it's what was already here. A hundred acres of mature hardwood forest, a year-round creek, rolling pastures that have supported livestock since the 1920s, and a sky so clear on a winter night you can see the Milky Way arc from horizon to horizon.
We don't manage the land for you. We invite you to walk it, sit in it, and let it do what it has always done: slow you down.
We came for a weekend and left with something we didn't know we were missing — the kind of quiet that actually restores you. The lodge was perfect, the food was extraordinary, and the stars? We've never seen anything like it.
Whether it's a weekend escape, a family reunion, or the quiet celebration of something important — your lodge is prepared and waiting.
