About this property

The Farmhouse Retreat- House A “Come experience life on a farm! Pet Friendly”

Have you ever wondered what it’s like waking up in the morning and having a farm right outside your front door? Then look no further then the farmhouse retreat on our private 44 acre hobby farm! The 3bed/2bath family style home sits at the very front of our property over looking our many pastures of animals and the garden! Imagine sitting on the front porch in the morning enjoying your coffee listening to all the birds sing and watching the goats play, the chickens hunt for bugs to eat or the emu taking a bath in the creek. The personalities and characteristics of our wide variety of animals are sure to keep you entertained all day long without ever leaving!! We also love to give farm tours & will allow guests to get a more Hands on experience here on the farm!

We created the farmhouse retreat to feel like a home away from home wether you’re in town on business or looking for a place to escape with the family and spend quality time together. The house features a primary bedroom with a king size bed(sleeps 2) a second bedroom that has a queen and full size bed(sleeps 4) with a full bath attached & the last bedroom that has a full size bunk bed over a full size bed that is able to sleep 2-4 people depending on the weight limit of the top bunk that holds 200lbs max capacity. The large sectional could also sleep up to 2 people comfortably depending on the size of your group! The rental house is only the main floor and DOES NOT include the basement that is attached. The basement is used for storage & will not be accessed by us during any rental stays unless previously approved by the current guest. We use exterior ring cameras on the property One looking at the front entrance to the property and another looking over the animals. This is for the safety of our animals & guests.

We like to think that we are located perfectly in the middle of everything you may want to do or see on your stay to the area. Located right in the middle of apple country (apple szn June- Oct.) We are centered in between chimney rock & downtown hendersonville 20 minutes driving in each direction. The Asheville regional airport is only 27 minutes away. The famous biltmore house is a 30 minute drive. Other local places close in proximity to our house is the gorgeous point lookout winery just a 4 minutes drive. The blackberry vineyard across the street from us grows the most gorgeous palm sized blackberries (spring seasonal) Just 5 minutes down the road we have Danny’s fish’n’camp where you can catch your choice of trout or catfish & fishing pole rentals on site. Directly next door to Danny’s is black bear snow tubing! This is a very popular family fun activity to do during winter season. We are surrounded by the blue ridge mountains, the parkway only and hour drive away! The great Smokey mountains and Gatlinburg only 2 hours away. So many Historic places, breathtaking hiking spots, waterfalls and much much more all jammed packed within an hours driving distance from this house. We go a lot more in-depth with things to do, places to see, where to shop and so much more in our in home welcome guidebook!

Pet rules:
-$25 pet fee paid before arrival
-all animals must be on a leash when outside.
-no unattended pets left alone in the house without being in a crate. We have some to borrow. Please let us know in advance if you need one.
-no pets allowed off of the rental property near the animal pastures.

This house is the cutest little farm house. The kids enjoyed staying here and seeing the animals. There’s lot of kids toys, pack n play, high hair, etc. This is the perfect house for a family with young children. We enjoyed watching the variety of movies and playing games with the family. We will be back!

Home on the Range
This property was as advertised. Communication with the owners was excellent. Check-in was a breeze. We found our home clean and stocked better than most. The animals were delightful and the farm setting peaceful. The central HVAC unit worked well. The beds and pillows were quite comfortable. Pet friendly was truly appreciated. We found the price point of this home appropriate and affordable. We would rent again if in the Hendersonville/Lake Lure area.

We had a wonderful time! Great location, very clean, easy check-in and check-out process. Loved the black out curtains. Haha, you don’t realize how important those are till you have kids. We also got to enjoy the farm and our kids pet and fed all the cute animals. Fantastic and unique view to wake up to. We will stay there again in a heartbeat!

Fall Fun
Many thanks to Jonathon and Tonya!! Our weekend stay with some family friends was so peaceful. The house generously accommodated two families (six kids ages 3-10) and four adults. The animals were such a fun addition, and there were many inside and outside games and toys to occupy our time. We didn’t really want to leave the house to explore the area for too long because it was so beautiful right there on the property. We felt like we had everything we needed. Thank you for being such wonderful hosts!! Many blessings!!!

Home away from home
If you are looking for a home away from home feel this is your place. The owner was very quick to respond and answer any questions for us. The location is great and close to downtown Hendersonville and a ton of other activities. The place is very kid-friendly and provides toys and other items for your infant to your younger kids. The animals are a great bonus and once a day you have the opportunity to help feed the animals. When we are back in town we will be booking again and we already can't wait to come back.

We have a friend that lives in Hendersonville, so this was the perfect getaway for us to see them, watch some football, and enjoy the mountains and all the animals all while being 25 minutes from the Apple festival! Great place and Johnathan was so hospitable!

Myself, husband and our children ages 12, 9, 7, 4, and 1 1/2 stayed for the week. We enjoyed feeding the animals each evening and went to Lake Lure beach, Chimney Rock, Asheville, and hiking during the day (all within an easy drive). We had plenty of space for our family and some space for the kids to play outside.

Indescribably Fantastic ☆☆☆☆☆
Very spacious ranch design farmhouse. Not sure where to start... The Farmhouse Retreat name fits, but we have a small hobby farm, so it was like home away from home... "HOWEVER", Having an Emu watch as we unloaded our gear, getting several visits from a Beautiful Ostrich that wanted to play with the football, the donkeys introducing their presence, to meeting the cat, (not usually my favorite pets), that absolutely won us over and is now dubbed, "Coolest Kitty Ever". It could've have been more fantastic. I spent 10 years as a Property Manager with Starwood and Marriott branded hotels in Charlotte. Le Meridien & Sheraton Charlotte Uptown ☆☆☆☆☆'s compared to branded hotels. Very well equipped kitchen, very comfortable, not commercial furnishings, fantastic firepit, nice deck with qualty gas grill, paved access and parking, board games, too much to list. Highly Recommend for families, friends, fishing trip retreats, etc. We are already planning a return trip.

Had such a great time at the farmhouse! We had three kids ages 6,6 and 5 with us and they loved feeding the animals and getting to pet them everyday. Thought I wasn’t going to like not having a tv in the room but it was actually kind of pleasant. Fire pit was really nice. Loved that wood was provided. I will say kitchen could’ve used a few more things as far as Pyrex and some mixing bowls. Other than that it was perfect! Would definitely stay again!

lovely place to stay in the fall!
The farmhouse was great, and there were so many cute animals right outside the front door. The driveway was marked well so we couldn't miss it. They had toiletries in case you forgot something, which was great because it's a ways to a store. The kitchen had everything we needed. And the fall leaves and frosty mornings were charming and lovely.
