Very quiet, lovely space to stay while visiting family in Rutherfordton. We didn't have a chance to explore the property, but the farmhouse itself was lovely, clean, and well-equipped.

Thank you the wonderful review! We are so glad to hear the Farmhouse made a great basecamp for you to explore the area.
This is our 3rd stay on the property and 2nd stay in the farmhouse. My daughter lives in Rutherfordton so we spent most of our time with her to include visiting Biltmore, which took all of Sunday. We stayed from Friday evening to Sunday morning. No time to explore as we have done in the past.
