Featuring one bedroom and bathroom upstairs, and two bedrooms and a bathroom downstairs, this home is the ideal nest in.

A great break from the heat

We spent Mon-Fri at the Hilltop Cottage. Mike met us right when we arrived, actually calling to check on our arrival time earlier that day. He showed us around the farm first hand and then lead us to the Hilltop. While you're allowed to drive, we actually enjoyed walking around the farm back and forth to the ponds, game room, and cook house. We were able to find Mike anytime we needed, but it was as if we had the Hilltop to ourselves for some quality family time. The 70-80 degree weather was amazing since we're used to 90+ degree days in South Georgia. We spent most of our time on the farm with a quick visit to the Biltmore and other outdoor attractions like Pigsgah National Forest for Sliding Rock and also Chimney Rock by Lake Lure. Great time, 5-days wasn't long enough!

About the host

Hosted by The Horse Shoe Farm

Host profile image

The Turchin Companies is a dynamic organization, headed by third generation designer/developer John Turchin, specializing in construction and development, design and marketing, property management, alternative energies, and retail. The Turchin Companies began construction in South Florida in 1927 and over the last 90 years have built a well-deserved reputation as one of the premiere development companies in the state.

No strangers to North Carolina, the Turchin family fell in love with the Blue Ridge Mountains in 1970 and made it their second home from then on. Combining their passion for this exquisite area with their creative instinct and unique taste in architecture and design, the Turchin family created a one-of-a-kind luxury mountain community, The Lodges at Eagles Nest, in Banner Elk, NC. A 1,350 acre inspired mountain retreat, with altitudes over 5,000 feet, The Lodges at Eagles Nest was created as a place where residents would be reminded of their childhood summer camp days, but with an unmatched sense of luxury and distinction.

They have since focused their passion and love into The Horse Shoe Farm.

Why they chose this property

Feeling a deep connection to the bucolic nature of the property, the Turchins acquired the farm in 2017, with the desire to embrace the intimate setting and share it with the world. Open to guests looking to experience the magic of this sanctuary, The Horse Shoe Farm is designed as an open palate ready to fulfill and facilitate any of our guests desires and be their ultimate home away from home.

What makes this property unique

This home is located on The Horse Shoe Farm, which has eight houses available to rent, from small cottages to timeless manors. The property is 85 acres and features:

The Farmhouse is our game room that offers a pool table, ping pong tables, record player and record collection, big screen TV, games, puzzles and arts & crafts.

There are bikes in the game room that are free for guests to use to explore The Farm’s 85 acres.

We have fishing gear (poles and tackle) available to use in the two ponds located on the property.

Paddle boards and canoes that can be used at the group’s leisure (life jackets provided).

The Farm is home to horses, goats, sheep, ducks, and lots of chickens. We are happy to give tours down to the animals. They always love visitors.

Each night we have a bonfire next to the Silo Cookhouse. The view is spectacular! This is a great time to decompress and enjoy the s'mores kits that we leave in each home at arrival.

Our wonderful Stable Spa is also an option for anyone wanting to enjoy a treatment or yoga class. Be sure to take a look at our Spa Menu so that you can see what we offer.

If guests would like to go off site, we are centrally located between Hendersonville, Asheville, and Brevard so there are many things nearby including hiking, horseback riding, and great shops to explore.
