How We Got Started

Embracing the Heart of Southern Hospitality

Once upon a time, in the heart of Alabama, a young professional named Michelle had an epiphany. Having spent 17 years in the field of education, she felt an undeniable calling to embark on a new path. Michelle’s heart was deeply ingrained with Southern hospitality, and she knew that she could use this gift to make a difference in people’s lives. Thus, Southern Backroad Retreats was born – a haven of warmth and comfort nestled in the beauty of Alabama’s countryside.

Growing up, Michelle was immersed in the genuine kindness and generosity that the South is renowned for. The memories of family gatherings, where neighbors became kin and strangers became friends, left an indelible mark on her soul. She wanted to recreate this feeling of kinship and belonging for others, and that’s precisely what she set out to do with her newly-founded company.

Getting Our Footing

Southern Backroad Retreats began humbly, with a single retreat known as “The Pool House.” This charming one-bedroom escape became the cornerstone of Michelle’s vision. It was a place where guests could unwind, find solace from the world’s bustle, and experience a genuine sense of home away from home.

As the word spread about the enchanting haven that was The Pool House, Michelle knew she had the opportunity to expand her vision further. She partnered with her husband, David, and they embarked on an ambitious journey to create more retreats that would reflect the heart of Southern Backroad Retreats.

As the pages of this story continue to turn, Michelle and David’s vision remains steadfast. Welcome to Southern Backroad Retreats, where a world of comfort, adventure, and friendship awaits.
