Recent Frequently Asked Questions
Our sales team is happy to discuss the exact details of our rates; however, we normally offer a discount for stays of 4+ weeks and periodically we will run a promotion here and there. The best way to see if there are any discounts is to contact our sales team at 615-667-8055.
The short answer is maybe. During the initial sales process, we can only make reservations for our standard arrival and departure days because our program is sold in one-week increments. However, during the last week of your stay, you can work with our onsite staff to see if an extending your stay is an option. We want to say yes. If the room is available, we'll work with you to make it happen.
Yes, absolutely. We do ask that you are respectful to the other guests when using your devices.

We believe transparency in pricing is important. Please refer to our rates (Fitness Retreats or Weight Loss Retreats) for a complete list included in every package we offer.
If you choose to purchase merchandise or accessories from our general store or schedule any additional services and activities, additional fees or charges will apply unless otherwise specified in your package. The additional services would include (but are not limited to) massage, spa services, personal training, nutrition consultation, or life coaching from our instructors.
We partner with a third-party financing company to help you with the financing of your stay. Check out Upstart for their rates and application process.
This really depends on your insurance. You will need to work with your doctor and your insurance company to determine your available coverage. To start the process, work with your doctor to declare a medical necessity and submit for reimbursement through your insurance medical savings account. We've provided a form to help with this process which can be downloaded here.
On average, women lose between 4-6 pounds per week, and men lose 6-8 pounds per week (we know – it’s not fair!). But everyone responds differently to the program. Most likely, your body is not accustomed to a daily fitness regimen of 6-7 hours, so you may react differently than other guests. Some guests retain water during their stay and lose the water weight when they go home to a regular routine.
Some guests lose more than the average. We encourage you to look at your success in a holistic way and measure your success with multiple items: weight loss, inches lost, increased strength, increased mobility, increased endurance, body fat loss, and feeling better both mentally and physically. While weight loss may appear to be the goal, we’ve found our guests realize so much more in addition to the overall weight loss.
Our classes are 7 hours of various levels of movement and education throughout the day. Before you begin any classes, a trainer will work with you to address any physical limitations you may have to meet you at your current physical level.
Your safety is our top priority.
Overall, we focus on a whole-body workout that combines strength, mobility, cardio, and recovery throughout every day. We will do everything from HIIT, Weight Lifting, Boxing, Hiking, Biking, Yoga, Spin, and aquatic. Our schedules change each week so that we provide a wide variety of classes during the entire length of your stay. However, we also balance that variety with repetitiveness, so you feel confident in walking away with the knowledge to continue your fitness activities when you return home.
Absolutely! You can find a sample schedule for our retreats here.
Yes and no. Each of our classes is uniquely designed to challenge guests of all fitness levels. This is accomplished by the vast experience of our trainers, who can provide modifications for every exercise based on your specific fitness level. So, we have group classes where all fitness levels are together and classes that are grouped by fitness level. Rest assured, you will be challenged based on YOU and not the person next to you. Our typical guest-to-trainer ratio is 15:1, so you will always have the personal attention you need to have a safe and challenging workout.
We won’t lie; there is a certain level of competitiveness that naturally comes out in most guests during their stay. But that competitive spirit is most often you competing with yourself. Where you want to do more, you push yourself to achieve your goals. And you find the fire from within. It doesn’t happen for everyone, and that is certainly just fine with us. This is YOUR JOURNEY. We’re simply here to be your coach, accountability partner, and friend all along the way.
Your first class each day will start at 7:00 am, with breakfast being served at 8:00 am. Each day you will review your accomplishments from the day before and set new goals for the day. Then you work through a variety of classes that take you through the peaks and valleys of fitness intensity. Your last class of the day will end at 5:30 pm. As for meals, again, breakfast is every day at 8:00 am, lunch will be served at noon, your afternoon snack at 3:00 pm, dinner at 5:30 pm, and an evening snack that you take back to your room. The rest of the evening is all yours! You may find that the intensity of the training regimen prompts a natural desire to ‘wind down’ during the evenings.
We encourage you to relax, enjoy a nice slow walk, read, and take advantage of the recovery therapies available in our Serenity Spa. The exceptions to the schedule are on Thursdays and Sunday’s which are half days; after all, your body needs recovery time! Breakfast and lunch on these days will be “take-home,” so you can enjoy your meal anywhere on or off the property. However, we will serve dinner in the Mess Hall both evenings.
Strictly speaking, participation is entirely at the discretion of our guests. This is YOUR JOURNEY. Communication and goal setting are key elements to a successful experience. We encourage you to talk openly with your training during your initial meeting and develop the plan of participation needed to reach your goals. We will use this information to be your accountability partner during your stay. Ultimately – this will set you up for success both during camp and beyond. It is entirely up to you.
Absolutely! Our program is designed for guests of all fitness levels. Our trainers are experts at assessing your current fitness level and providing modifications that allow you to build strength and achieve your goals now matter where you are in your journey.
Our trainers will work with you every step of the way to ensure that your safety is first. Before you begin any classes, they will assess your current physical level and modify any exercises to meet you where you are.
The Rock Springs Retreat Center chefs cook real, healthy food during your stay. We have a fixed meal each day. If we’re ever serving a meal that isn’t appealing to you, we always offer a tasty chicken dinner as an alternative.
We recognize that you may have special dietary restrictions, allergies, or intolerances that need to be accommodated. Simply let us know about these items, and we’ll happily adjust your meals to these needs.
Our nutrition philosophy easily supports lactose-free, gluten-free, vegetarian, and pescatarian dietary restrictions. Please contact a Rock Springs Retreat Center consultant about our approach with other dietary restrictions.
Rock Springs Retreat Center spans across 200 acres of rolling countryside. Our guest cabins are located between the main lodge and the Whippy Barn. Each cabin has different configurations of singles, doubles, and suites, with access to indoor and outdoor common areas. Click HERE for more information about our cabins.
In addition to our guest cabins, Rock Springs Retreat Center features a pool area located conveniently in the heart of our village area for both training program usage and recreational swimming during non-training hours. Click HERE for more information about our on-site activities.
Cabins have mixed genders; however, the shared rooms within the cabins do not (unless a guest books a room to share with their friend/family/spouse, etc). If you select a shared room for your stay, you will be paired with a roommate of the same gender. This is designed to provide a comfortable environment for all guests, allowing everyone to enjoy their stay without feeling uncomfortable about who is in the same room.
Cabins share a common space where a sink, microwave, refrigerator, and laundry facilities are available. If you prefer privacy, our suite has all of the amenities, direct room access, and the ability to lock and not go through the shared common space.
Absolutely! Choose between our shared room or our suite. We have a second guest rate for both rooms. For more information on our rates, check out our pricing for our Fitness and Weight Loss Retreats.
We have a promotion going on right now with our Summer HOT HOT HOT Deal* where both you and your friend can save 10% off of your stay if you book between now and 8/19/22 for a stay arriving on/before 9/7/2022! If you would like to come at a later date, there are discounted rates available for stays that are 4 weeks or longer.

We’ve found that the most successful way to send someone else to a fitness and weight loss retreat is through open communication. We’re happy to answer any questions you may have to help start the conversation because this topic can be sensitive. Once you’ve had the initial conversation with them, we can do a follow-up call to answer their questions to help them decide if this is the right fit. Ultimately, your family member is the only one who can decide.
We offer a local program that allows for participation in our fitness and weight loss retreats for 30 or 60 days based on your schedule. Please contact our sales team for details.
We have spa services available on property. Massages, facials, and foot detoxes are available at an additional cost. The sauna, hot tub, pool, and massage chair are complimentary with your stay.
We know many of our guests have pre-existing conditions that can flare up during an intensive fitness regime, so we are happy to welcome Dr. Kenny of The Fix Chiropractic office as part of our recovery team. Check out more information about Dr. Kenny here.
Although we don't currently have a therapist on site, there are still many ways to access therapy. You can bring a therapist onsite to meet with you, or you can take advantage of your half days to visit a therapist in person. Additionally, many therapists offer virtual sessions through video or telephone calls. No matter what your schedule is like, there is always a way to access the emotional support and guidance that therapy can provide.

A fitness tracker lets you watch and record your heart rate, daily burned calories, step counts, and so much more.
Self-tracking allows you to stick to a healthier diet, exercise more, and sleep better. Regular use of a fitness tracker boosts your daily workouts and makes them achievable. We'll start your new habit while you're here at the farm through our daily round-up. To learn more about how we use fitness trackers in our program (specifically the Fitbit), visit our blog, Tracking Your Heart Rate.
Although we prefer Fitbit, any fitness tracker that tracks heart rate and calories will work (ie Apple Watch or Garmin).
You are welcome to bring spin shoes but they're not required. Most of our guests are trying spin for the very first time and wear sneakers during their stay.
All of our newly arrived guests will participate in an orientation and tour to get you familiar with what to expect during your stay. During this orientation, you will receive the week’s class schedule, daily meal schedule, an overview of what to expect, and your fitness journal.
After orientation, we’ll have a welcome dinner and a little meet and greet with the staff and guests. Then you have the evening to yourself. Take this time to explore the property and unwind. Let the pressures of everyday life melt away through the serenity of your new home away from home.
Check-in hours are between 12:00 noon and 7:00 pm on Sundays. Checkout hours are on Sundays between 9:00 am and 11:00 am, and guests are welcome to continue their fitness journey with us or enjoy our activities while waiting for shuttle pickup on Sundays.
A welcome dinner is provided on the evening of your arrival and breakfast is included on the day of your departure. We can provide additional meals on these days at an additional cost. Please contact a staff member to make arrangements.
Your fitness program will start early Monday morning. Here is how the day will look:
• Testing: RMR, Styku, and THE SCALE (Yes, we have to do it!)
• Trainer consultation: This is your time to talk with the trainer about your goals, previous injuries, physical limitations, and concerns.
• Breakfast
• Program Orientation
• Gym Orientation
• Fitness assessment
All this happens before 10:30 in the morning, and then you will go into your first class.
Main Lodge - 7:00am - 10:00pm daily
Rock Springs Retreat Center Staff on-site - 7:00am - 6:30pm daily
General Store - 9:00am - 5:30pm daily
The Swimming Hole is open from March 15-November 1. During the pool's off-season, guests may wish to use the indoor pool at the Gallatin Civic Center as an alternative.
Yes, we have WiFi in all accommodations and throughout the main lodge and common areas in the cabins. Due to our location, cellular service can be somewhat spotty, depending on your wireless carrier and device.
Our Executive Center in the main lodge provides workstations where you can connect with your friends and loved ones and even use a printer.
Each cabin has a washer and a dryer free of charge. Private suites have their own washer and dryer facility.
Guests from all walks of life come to Fit Farm. We have guests as young as 18 all the way up to their late 70s! You'll find that as each new week on the farm begins, guests of all shapes, sizes, and fitness levels vary, making no two weeks alike!
For insurance and safety reasons, retreats are restricted to guests of 18+. We are an all-inclusive retreat center where adult guests of all ages, gender, and fitness level are welcome. Our training team is experts in meeting you where you are in your fitness journey and taking you to the next level.
We offer complimentary shuttle service from the Nashville Airport (BNA) to the retreat center on our regularly scheduled arrival days of Sundays (11:30 am or 3:00 pm) and Wednesdays (3:00 pm). Please schedule your flight to arrive at least 30 minutes before our scheduled shuttle time to give you enough time to collect your luggage and walk over to the ground transportation area to meet the shuttle.
Directions to meeting the shuttle: The Fit Farm at Rock Springs shuttle will meet you at the Ground Transportation Center. The vehicle will have a Fit Farm sign on the side.
Exit the Main Terminal on Level 1 and turn right.

The Ground Transportation Center is on Level 1.
You can hire an Uber, taxi, or car service for transportation from the Nashville Airport to travel to the retreat center if you are unable to make our scheduled shuttle pick-up times.
Our complimentary shuttle service runs on our regular check-out day of Sunday for arrival at the airport at either 11:30 am or 3:00 pm. The ride to the airport is 1 hour which means our shuttle will leave the retreat center promptly at 10:30 am or 2:00 pm. For departure, you should schedule your flight for at least 1 hour (depending on how much time you prefer to give yourself to get through security and to your gate) after our scheduled arrival time at the Nashville Airport (BNA).
ARRIVALS & DEPARTURES: Sunday 11:30 AM & 3 PM | Wednesday 3 PM
After classes and lunch are done for the day, you are welcome to enjoy the amenities on property or go explore middle Tennessee. On property, we have 200 acres of beautiful grounds to explore that include our heated pool, spa services, and sauna. Not to mention that you never know what fun things our team may schedule.
Many guests visit our local towns and do some shopping or visit Nashville. At the same time, you may simply want to rest. You've earned it after the hard work you've put in during the first part of the week.
Yes, you can book a room with a bathtub by requesting our Single Room. This room has a full-size bed with a private bathroom and a shower/tub combo. However, if you stay in a different room type, you can always request a foot soaker to use your Epsom salts.
A fitness retreat isn’t the appropriate place for a cleanse because you'll need proper nutrients in order to have the energy to complete your 7-hour days. Our macro-balanced meal plan is designed with the perfect balance of carbs for energy and protein for building muscle.
For our weight loss program, we recommend the following for maximizing your results here on the farm. DHEA, Estradiol, Progesterone (all can impact the ability to lose weight). TSH (thyroid), Cortisol levels (stress hormone), Insulin, Complete metabolic workup (lipids, CBC levels, Vitamin D) if desired.
Fit Farm is proud to be the only boot camp (we know of) that invites our guests to come and “sweat it out” alongside their canine companions. We welcome dogs of all breeds and ages to join in and explore the wide-open spaces of our Farm under your supervision (not allowed in public enclosed spaces due to allergy concerns).
Here are the pet fees:
• $25 daily pet fee (non-refundable)

We love having your furry friends join you during your stay. While you're attending classes, your dog (or cat) will need to stay in your room or be tethered outside. There are plenty of opportunities between classes to let your furry friend out and even take a walk.
In keeping with Fit Farm’s commitment to a transformative, life-changing environment, caffeine is not provided on the Farm. Also, while it is not forbidden, we strongly recommend smoking cessation during your stay for optimal success.
Tennessee's weather varies from day-to-day even during different seasons. Our retreat sits on 200 acres of farmland that has options for both indoor and outdoor activities including indoor gyms with air conditioning and a heated outdoor pool. Before any outdoor activities are planned, our trainers monitor the weather to ensure conditions are safe for our guests.
We continue to provide our regular program during the holidays such as Thanksgiving, Halloween, the 4th of July, and more! Our team acknowledges and celebrates each holiday in a special way to make your stay a little more like home. Our chefs provide healthy versions of traditional holiday meals, our trainers often design holiday-themed workouts, and our teams are even more creative with the fun around the farm!
You'll be happy to know that our indoor fitness facilities do have air conditioning! Our trainers carefully monitor the weather to ensure that conditions are safe when using any of our outdoor facilities. Your room and the lodge are also air-conditioned.
The coldest time of year in Tennessee is between December and late February with an average daily high of around 50 degrees F, but the sun shines frequently. The good news is that we have 5 individual indoor gym spaces to host all of your classes, a nice cozy fireplace in our main lodge, a private movie theatre to enjoy in the evenings, and a hot tub to soak and stare at the stars. It may get a little colder during the winter, but we do everything we can to keep you comfy and cozy during your stay.
At Fit Farm, you are never forced to partake in any activities that you don't want to.
If you would prefer to stay on the property instead of hiking, you are more than welcome to walk/bike the trail on the farm, go for a swim in the pool or use any of our indoor/outdoor fitness facilities. If you are looking for a comparable alternative, reach out to our team who will work with you on what activities you can do on the farm for a similar calorie burn.
When you come to Fit Farm at Rock Springs, we want you to feel safe and protected on your health and wellness journey.
Our program has always been driven by data-backed science to make people as healthy as possible. You can view our full COVID policy here.

Good evening. I have noticed in your literature that you, at times, have a promotional offer for local residents. I am interested in coming to the fitness retreat, staying for one 1-2 weeks and then continuing for 2 additional weeks but staying at home and coming daily. Is this possible and what would the pricing be for an arrangement like that? Does the pricing vary at different times of the year?
Author
Hello, Amy! Thank you for your interest in Fit Farm. We do offer special promotions for local residents, and we’d be happy to discuss a customized arrangement that suits your needs. Pricing can vary depending on factors like the specific program you’re interested in. To get all the details and explore the best options for your extended stay and daily visits, please contact our team directly.

Will insurance cover my stay
Author
Hi Kathy! It really depends on your insurance if they will cover your stay. You will need to work with your doctor and your insurance company to determine your available coverage. To start the process, work with your doctor to declare a medical necessity and submit for reimbursement through your insurance medical savings account.
We’ve provided a form to help with this process which can be downloaded here: https://rockspringsrc.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/ff-insurance-form.pdf

Author
Hi Jayme! The facilities are available 24/7. We have scheduled classes from 7am – 5:30pm. Then the fitness facilities can be accessed 24/7.
I would love to send my husband to a retreat like this. We are retired military. He was on active duty in the Middle East and gained a lot of weight after he returned. Now he is unable to lose it and keep it off.
Is there a way to make payments for a more extended stay? He needs a minimum of 4 weeks, if not longer.
Author
Hi Petra! The great news is we can work with you to make payments for your husband’s stay! We have the option to set up weekly or monthly arrangements depending on your needs. Emily, a member of our team, will be reaching out to you to discuss how we can make things work.

Hello, have you had any clients with autoimmune thyroid disease Hashimotos and do they get different workouts because of the way antibodies react to exercise stress on heart…and also would they get gluten free, grain free, dairy free and soy free meals?
Author
Hi Meredith, thank you for your inquiry! We have had guests at Fit Farm with Hashimotos. They discussed with our certified trainers their diagnosis and worked together to identify what they can and cannot do. As far as diet is concerned, we are able to accommodate gluten-free and dairy-free diets. However, grain and soy are not within the dietary restrictions that we are able to fully accommodate.
Hey this looks pretty interesting.
I am 35 and skinny fat, ha. Dad bod kinda thing.
I wish I could spend all day like I did when i was a kid, playing sports and being active.
Are there enough “roughly in shape” guests there to actually play sports with and stuff. I tried one camp once and left after a day because everyone was much larger and I felt like the program wasnt designed for people trying to lose that last 10-15 pounds.
Also, do yall have a results images / success stories section?
Thanks : )
Author
Hi Philip, this is a really great question! Though the guest mix up changes from week to week, we normally have a great blend of all levels of fitness, ages, and weight loss goals. As a matter of fact, when deciding to open Fit Farm, the owner wanted to make sure we were an all-inclusive facility where everyone feels welcome and challenged. A common trend of many guests is the fact that they were athletic when they were younger and want to feel that way again. So we love to incorporate sports into our workouts. Our trainers even jump in to help even the playing field. And yes, we do love to share our success stories! Within our blog section, you can find a number of inspiring transformations from our former guests!
I want to join but can only get away for the extended weekend. Can I be in the group of really overweight people during my weekend stay?
I have 70lbs to lose and lack confidence to be grouped with athletic people. I need to be around people at my level.
Thank you.
