We came to the farm for a holiday weekend getaway from Charlotte as our senior dog is terrified of fireworks. I think we had the most relaxing fireworks holiday we have ever had as there were so few fireworks heard, and even then, they were off in a distance and were done at a reasonable hour.Aside from the quietness, the house is well kept and clean. It has every thing you need for a comfortable stay - nice furniture in all rooms, kitchen fully stocked, wifi, etc.We had fun exploring the property, as well as sitting on the porch enjoying the mountain views in the mornings before it got to hot. If you are a hiker, the house is very close to Hanging Rock State Park.Highly recommend this home if you find yourself in this area!

We loved our stay at this lovely farm house. The host, Bryan, was welcoming and helpful. I loved that they sent us a detailed document with some history of the home and local places to check out for dining and entertainment. The location is perfect if you're visiting Hanging Rock State Park, because you are just a couple of miles away from the park and have a great view from the home.

About the host

Hosted by Bryan Scott

Host profile image
We purchased the farm in 2021 from the 4th generation property owner, whose great-grandfather built the house around 1902. The old Vaden family cemetery is still located on the property. Our family enjoys hiking at Hanging Rock State Park, tubing the Dan, and exploring Stokes County. We love all that the area has to offer and are excited to share this special property with you.

Why they chose this property

We love the stunning mountain views on our private 58-acre outdoor playground. We bet you will too!

What makes this property unique

There's not a better view in Stokes County, and we are as close as it gets to Hanging Rock State Park. Pet Friendly.
