The cabin was perfect! My husband and I talked about how you seemed to have thought of every little detail! We loved the area, it was quiet, and the view of the sunrise the next morning was something to see! If we are in the area again. I will definitely be getting in touch with you!

The host was nearby and personally greeted us soon after arrival. She was friendly and let us know that she would be on hand if we had any questions or needed extra towels etc. The rental was very well stocked with several little extras that made this stay a delight.
Porch swing..my favorite start to the day. Coffee and sunrise.

House was exactly how it was described. Loved the country setting. The one thing that was a little frustrating was getting around with all the detours into Pickens. Our GPS seemed to take us down too many roads.

Peaceful Country Getaway

Twin Farms is precisely what I was looking for to have some peaceful alone time. Very relaxing, comfortable and clean. The hosts were courteous and respectful of my privacy, while making sure I knew they were available if I needed anything. Enjoyed watching the chickens and beautiful sunrises. So grateful, and will definitely come back!

Quiet cabin

We only stayed one night, but the cabin was perfect for us. A very quiet location (until the rooster crows…which was muffled by the walls). We enjoyed the chickens, since I’m a chicken tender also! There aren’t many restaurants to choose from in the area, but there is a large grocery store nearby. Ample towels and the beds were super comfortable.
