We are a semi retired couple with a farm. We both are from Carter County (Elizabethton) born and raised.
We have other rental properties in this area and decided to turn my husband's grandparents place into a VRBO rental. We enjoy meeting people from all walks of life and having them stay at our Farmstead.

Why they chose this property

We live on our farm next to the Farmstead home. We think it's a nice quiet area in the country.

What makes this property unique

We're out in the country, but close to the town of Elizabethton
