Birthday Weekend Getaway

My family and I loved this house! It was clean, the location is great, and the farm animals are adorable. If we are in the Hendersonville area again, we will definitely put it at the top of our list to stay there again.

Great place out off the beaten path but still close to civilization

We loved being able to wake up and see the livestock out the front window. The owners were very communicative and gave us direct contact numbers Incase we needed anything during our stay.

Great farm getaway

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!

Enjoyed our stay in the mountains

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.

Mountain getaway

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.

Farm House

The location of this house is great for scenic views and if you are visiting The Cabin Ridge venue. The house is simple and clean. It was roomy enough for our family of 6 adults and one child. The farm animals didn't bother us at all. Owners were very friendly and accommodating.

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!

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.

Relaxing Getaway!

We had an amazing time at the Farmhouse Retreat. It was so very relaxing and it was the perfect place to just unwind and reset. It's convenient for just about any food or shopping you may want, but "off the grid" enough to just sit back and forget about your cares for a little while. The hosts were awesome, inviting us to help feed all of their wonderful animals at dinner time. Their farm is a must see for anyone that has little ones or for anyone that loves animals. From Minnie the dog to Wednesday the mini donkey to Theodore the pig, we enjoyed all of them! We hope to visit again soon.
