We stayed at the horse barn RV hookup. The facility was wonderful. We were surrounded by rescue animals and had the pleasure of playing with the litter of puppies on the premise; a highlight of the trip for my boys. The host was kind and gave us a tour of the farm including the mountain top cabin with beautiful views (including a rainbow). We were close to many parks and trails which we enjoyed. I would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a peaceful mountain stay.
My son loved being on the farm! We were surrounded by wildlife, beautiful rolling hills, and a very nice breeze. We saw puppies, cats, pigs, chickens, and horses. Everyone we encountered was very nice and accommodated us in every way they could. Very close to Grayson Highlands, which we visited twice during our visit.
A warm welcome for a late night arrival. Everything was perfectly setup to make us feel at home in an instant. The magic really begins when upon morning light when we could soak in the surrounds and be AMAZED! Beauty is every you can see and that's just the start. This is a real working farm with rescue animals and they are something to behold. When it was feeding time we met the host who couldn't have been nicer and was happy to answer the toughest of questions consisting of what are the animal's names - some of them are celebrities in their own right. Explore the grounds, make some animal friends, enjoy and repeat.
Whatever stress you may have come with dissolves in an instant.
Loved our stay! The cabin is great. It is well stocked with kitchen supplies and bedding. The fridge was big (for a mini fridge) and has a separate freezer portion. The smart TV worked well and internet was really fast. We enjoyed a fire in the metal pit one night. The deck with patio furniture was a nice place to enjoy the view over the pond. It is on a farm rescue so there were animals in surrounding fenced areas. It was nice to watch them, especially the mini horse, Flame, as he had a funny personality. We stayed 3 nights and it was very quiet, even during the day. The people living there were close by but didn't bother you if you didn't want company. I'd love to stay again. It's a great place to get away and relax.
The gypsy wagon home was perfect for our trip! My kids loved the puppies and everything was clean. We enjoyed a fire a night and it was like we had the whole place to ourselves. We will definitely come back to stay.
