Oak Hollow Cabins exists to create space—literal space, quiet space, and time without pressure.
Set on rural land in Alabama, Oak Hollow is shaped by a simple idea: life doesn’t need to be optimized to be meaningful. It needs room. Room to slow down, to notice, and to be present without an agenda.
The cabins here are intentionally modest. They are not designed to impress or entertain, but to support stillness and attention. Mornings arrive without urgency. Evenings settle naturally. The land does much of the work on its own.
Oak Hollow is not a retreat center and not an escape in the usual sense. There are no programs, schedules, or expectations. Guests are free to walk, read, write, rest, or do nothing at all. The absence of performance is part of the design.
This place is connected to a broader way of living. The philosophy that shapes Oak Hollow—simplicity, honesty, and unscripted time—is explored more personally through my writing at RichardLFricks.com, where The Pencil-Driven Life reflects on attention and daily practice. It also grows out of a longer inquiry into belief and meaning, documented at GodOrDelusion.com through The God Question.
Oak Hollow is where those ideas are lived physically.
If you’re looking for entertainment, this may not be the right place.
If you’re looking for space—to think, to breathe, or simply to be—you’re welcome here.
Nothing is required of you once you arrive.
