Settle in to a lakeside retreat just outside Nashville, Tennessee
Imagine waking to the sight of a blue heron on the shoreline as the sun rises over the water. Enjoying coffee with your spouse with a full day of nothing planned before you. Space to breathe. Time to reconnect with God and one another. All in a rural setting but just 45 minutes from Nashville. Close enough to enjoy endless options for live music and far enough away to see stars in the night sky.
Enjoy a Lakeside Getaway in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee
Guests stay in a 38’ luxury motorhome with a private patio, an outdoor fire pit, and stand-up paddleboards with a lakeside setting that will soothe your soul. This getaway is frequented by grazing deer and wandering turkeys. This is an ideal basecamp for exploring small towns, rolling countryside and Music City.
Lakeside Hosts
Every Teamness pastor getaway is hosted by a caring and discerning couple who understand the challenges of church ministry, hold space to listen and care, and are sensitive to the need for couples to have ample time alone. Getaway couples at Lakeside will be hosted by one of our two Lakeside host couples.
Tim and Sarah Robinson
Tim and Sarah Robinson met at a horse show while Sarah was riding horses with Tim's sister—Sarah likes to joke she had it easy because she knew Tim's parents before meeting Tim.
Married for 13 years, they're parents to two active boys and love spending time cheering on their sons in youth leagues. With backgrounds in church tech/AV ministry, kids, and hospitality roles, they've witnessed burnout firsthand in both ministry and professional contexts.
Tim designs AV systems for conference spaces and medical facilities while Sarah works in corporate finance, and they're honored to join Teamness as hosts—pouring into those who fill others' cups even when their own have run dry.
Nick & Renee Amick
Nick and Renee Amick met in high school and have been married for over 22 years. They live just outside Nashville in a lovingly restored 1905 farmhouse and are parents to a 21-year-old daughter, an 18-year-old son, and a 26 year old special needs daughter whom they have conservatorship of since she was 12 years old.
Renee teaches at a local Christian school, and Nick works as a project manager in the millwork industry. Over the years, they’ve stepped into a variety of ministry roles, including leading a house church for 12 years. Today, they attend Connect Church, where they’ve found a new rhythm of serving and growing.
Nick and Renee have a heart for creating safe, welcoming spaces and simply being present. They continue to live by the reminder in Philippians 1:6—God is faithful to finish what He starts.
