Sebastian Springs Retreat

We bought this amazing 2.5 acre wooded land with a spring and creek on it from our friends who already had a huge healing impact on the land. This land is quiet, it is in a neighborhood and back up to a cow farm.  Everyone keeps to themselfs,  we have three other rentals on the property to share community areas. 

Catawba Falls Pitchin Post

Cedar log home was built in the late 70. Aesthetic views. Walk the trail behind the house and see the mountain views or just relax on the Catawba river. 

On a clear day you can see Mr. Mitchell.

Large field for games. So far away, but so convenient

Babbling Brook Campground

Before the Kerr Scott Reservoir was built, in the 40's and 50's, this neighborhood was a local swimming hole and vacation area. Public buses  came from neighboring communities so people could boat, swim, camp, and picnic. 

While we don't have access to the pond, our part of this land still is calling out to people, 'Come,  rest, unload your burdens, and find peace.'  

When we started this project with Hipcamp, we didn't fully realize that we were reconnecting with the history on this property. So, come, take your shoes off, and wade in the creek.  Read a book while laying in a hammock. Sit by the fire and chat with family and friends. 

Come and participate in our little homesteading project, and leave your burdens behind. 

LOCAL ACTIVITIES:

To the west is the Blue Ridge Parkway, which is 30 minutes away. 

15 minutes away is Kerr Scott Dam where you can rent kayaks, pontoon boats, as well as other sporting equipment. Fish, go mountain biking on the extensive trails, and hiking.

The Sacred Path

This land was purchased by my parents over 55 years ago. At the time is was a 48 acre farm. It belonged to a bootlegger. I was just seven years old when we came to live here on the "farm" as I have called it all my life. It was loved by family until my fathers' passing 5 years ago. My husband Terry and I came back to the farm to be with my father in his final years. Terry and I have continued  loving and caring for the land. This property backs to a 200 acre nature reserve and 600 acres of natural forest. It has a 30 foot creekside overlook and a beachfront at the creek. The is lots of nature to be heard and seen. We have resident foxes, a blue heron that frequents the pond, egrets, kingfisher, a bobcat, raccoons, crows, birds, fireflies, and (bear were seen last fall). It is beautiful land with rolling hills and horses grazing in the pastures.Learn more about this land:Come and pitch your tent in our park like setting by the pond and springs. You will feel the sacred breeze kiss your face and you will be re-energized, your energy restored and re-charged. This is a very special and sacred ground, if you allow it, you will feel the energy shift the moment you step foot onto the grounds. we welcome you to come stay, relax and visit or just retreat into meditation. Sherri is an energy worker.

Seven, very calm and beautiful horses here on the farm.
