Farmhouse Gallery & Gardens


As you drive through the covered bridge and enter our 73-acre family farm nestled between the mountains, you will understand why we want to share this special place with our guests. A nature-lover’s dream, our log cabin studio art gallery by the pond is now available for overnight stays — a unique opportunity to experience the artist’s inpiration.

The gallery has a separate, private guestroom with a queen sized bed, cozy bathroom with shower, small fridge with freezer, microwave, and single-serve coffee and tea maker with complimentary pods. The guestroom is connected to the gallery but has a separate keyless entry to the outside. After hours access to the common area is available for the enjoyment of our guests. A porch with table and chairs is also available for relaxing outdoors.

We live in an area rich in history, and the cabin dates back 250 years. We have always landscaped for wildlife and provided food and habitat for multiple species. Gardening has always been a key ingredient in our lifestyle, as well as cooking, canning, art, antiques and music. We also have a small buffalo herd, and Sammy Fathead, our buffalo bull, is always happy to greet visitors who come with us to his pasture. We have an authentic, working log cabin blacksmith shop, where our son Robin produces beautiful and functional artistic metal work. Johnny has been a wildlife artist for over 40 years, and his watercolors, prints, and pencil drawings are in the gallery, as well as the metalwork and other items we make here on the farm. Pat has had a commercial kitchen and catered and baked on site for nearly thirty years — you might get lucky and time your visit on a baking day, when she is preparing her goodies for a local farmer’s market. We look forward to welcoming you to our farm!

Perfect hideaway in the mountains
Our stay was exactly what we needed. Cozy and quiet; peaceful and very comfortable. Super clean inside and out. We loved having our coffee on the porch in the rocking chairs. Watching the mist float over the mountain was picture perfect. The gallery and pond add to the rich history of Unicoi. We can’t wait to return.

Lovely peaceful getaway
This property is lovely. We were so happy to find a peaceful hideaway. Quaint and comfortable. Clean and serene. The cabin is nestled in a beautiful valley rich with color and natural beauty. Easy to find, quietly remote but conveniently close to anything you might want to do or need to go out for. We loved meeting Mrs Pat and Mr Johnny. We will certainly be back!

Stop over stay
Excellent!! We enjoyed our time here so much. Between our morning coffee on the porch while watching buffalo come down out of the mist to the relaxing sounds of a bullfrog serenade while enjoying a glass of wine by the pond. Our gracious hosts were the final piece and we couldn’t have picked a better spot. Plus, my husband got to try his hand at blacksmithing thanks to Robin. Core memories were made and we will will treasure our time at the “cabin by the pond” for years to come.

EXCELLENT!
This stay was fantastic and was one of the most fun experiences me and my boyfriend have ever had. The host Pat and her family were so kind and welcoming and we had a blast with Robin learning all about the animals and his blacksmithing. The property was homely and beautiful with so much to explore. Will definately be staying here again when we return to the area in the future!

A TRIP TO REMEMBER
My spouse and I travel alot and this was definitely one of our top favorite trips! Pat, Johnny, and Robin were so welcoming. They are a very talented and kind family. Robin taught us how to blacksmith and feed the Buffalo. Pat showed us the grounds including the studio/art gallery we stayed in. It was filled with Johnnys beautiful art along with several antique pieces. It was quiet and cozy. If you are looking for a different but exceptional kind of experience, book with this beautiful family. We will definitely be back!

Rustic peaceful farm house
Very scenic, peaceful stay at a working farm. No Tv to disturb you. Art studio/ sun porch gives very poetic environment to watch animals in the pond and the deer. . They had Buffalo, chickens and a working blacksmith shop onsite. Cozy studio sleeping quarters slept very well. Microwave, K cups and small fridge provided gives perfect facilities to enjoy breakfast to watch otters and birds in pond. Everything was very clean. Private shower was small but accommodating and studio had private entrance. Grounds were beautiful and Hosts were very quick to respond. Neighboring towns had great food and entertainment. We Visited several waterfalls in the area. We will be back! Could not have loved it more.
