The Retreat at Flying Change farm is an adorable ADU located on a gorgeous farm in Troutman, NC. While we did have two people, it's probably better suited for a single person. Text check-in directions were good, though we missed the driveway entrance. We were greeted with a personal note from the owners with a contact number which we used to request linens for the pull-out. Both the main bed and the pull-out bed were very comfortable. The TV worked well and a folder with instructions is in the unit. There are plenty of paper plates and coffee filters so don't purchase more! Locally, stores and Lake Norman are close and definitely do the drive through at Zootastic! It's so much fun feeding camels, lamas, zebras and some very persistent ostriches and emu's. It's lots of fun and just 5 minutes from the Retreat. The Blue Ridge parkway is within an hours drive and worth it! The evenings are quiet, and we sat on the back porch and listened to the croaking frogs. This was a terrific stay for my Sister & I. We'll stay again if we're back in the area.

Great Property

My stay was wonderful. The house was very clean and well put together upon my arrival and the hosts in the main house are great people. There is no full kitchen but the hot plate, propane grill, and toaster oven are enough in my experience. If you are looking for a quiet place to stay for any amount of time within a 20 minute drive of either Troutman, Mooresville, or Statesville this is the place.

Charming place

We had an amazing time at the cottage in Troutman. The place looks exactly like it does on the pictures. It was great, clean and had everything needed for restful stay. The bed was very comfortable. It’s located in the beautiful area, on the charming farm with horses right outside of historic Troutman. It’s also very close to Lake a Norman state park. The area is very quiet and relaxing. In the evenings, we enjoyed watching synchronized fireflies flickering. Martin and Heather are extremely friendly and delightful hosts. Would absolutely recommend staying there! We are looking forward to staying there again soon!

The Perfect Place at the Perfect Time

This hidden gem in the middle of the country was the perfect home base for us as we helped our daughter through a move. Heather and Martin were ideal hosts, helpful and accommodating, but giving us plenty of space, as we were trying to keep relatively quarantined. They even allowed us to stay on when our moving date changed. The cottage is small, but has everything you need. In the evenings, we watched the lightning bugs and listened to crickets. We woke most mornings to see a horse grazing right outside our window. Relaxing, picturesque and affordable!

Peaceful

The cottage was just wonderful. I loved the rocking chair front porch every night to just sit back and enjoy the peace. For some much needed rest and a break from the hustle and bustle of life, this is the place. Thank you to the owners for sharing this very special place. Stephanie R.

Peace and Quiet, Cozy Comfort

This cottage is AMAZING! I don’t even know if amazing does it justice. I loved staying here. It had everything we needed. Completely comfortable and relaxing. You can’t the sitting on the front porch watching the horse. We will definitely be booking here again next to we are staying in the Mooresvillle area!

Lovely Serenity

This cottage was home for four months and I enjoyed every minute there. This house has everything you need for you me stay, but by far it’s greatest asset is the beautifully bucolic setting of the horse farm. Waking each morning to the sights and sounds so of the horses in the treed corral was so relaxing and heartwarming. Further, my hosts were exceptionally friendly and attended to every need I had. This is perfect for a single or a couple for a short stay, or make it your home for longer as I did. Do not pass up this opportunity for peace and quiet. If you’re traveling with horses it is the ideal spot. Thank you so much H & M for making me feel like family.

Cozy cottage overlooking peaceful horse pastures

Sweet cottage overlooking rolling pastures with grazing horses. Cottage was clean and thoughtfully decorated. As my husband said “Everything you need and nothing you don’t.” Great place for a peaceful getaway to reboot and relax. We’ll definitely be back.

It was as advertised, meeting our expectations, and in some aspects exceeding them.

The location was great for us, a farm setting, secluded, away from the traffic, yet only minutes from (10-15 minutes) shopping and restaurants. Its slightly larger than a studio, lacking a stove and decent dining table, we ate out most evenings. The setting is so serene, quiet, among pastures, horses very peaceful. Parking was plentiful. I would recommend it for a nice weekend getaway.
