About this property

Cottage at Changing Hearts Farm Sanctuary

Welcome to the Cottage at Changing Hearts Farm Sanctuary, a 3-acre getaway for animal lovers, where every aspect is designed for your comfort.
Just a short walk from your accommodations, you can discover the beauty of Changing Hearts Farm Sanctuary, which spans 15 acres of scenic pastures that provide a safe haven for rescued animals, including cows, pigs, horses, goats, and sheep. Our spacious and unique pet-friendly lodging is conveniently located just one mile from Gardner-Webb University.
Enjoy two dedicated workspaces with high-speed internet and YouTube TV. A Level 2 EV charger is onsite.
Unwind on the expansive deck overlooking your 2-acre, gated and fenced, completely private - for your use only - dog park, which features both open pasture and wooded area. Enjoy s’mores by the fire pit in the evening.
Have you ever met a cow or a pig up close? The Cottage accommodations are located next to @changingheartsfarm.org, a farm animal rescue home to cows, horses, pigs, goats and sheep.
Guests of the Cottage can join us in the evenings for “snack time” where we give the animals their evening snacks. Enjoy our beautiful, peaceful acreage and pecan grove, while you visit with friendly rescued farm animals.

Best Dog Park

My friend and I stayed in this home with our 3 dogs while attending a nearby herding trial. Rick put so much thought into this property. A huge 2 acre play yard complete with toys for the dogs. Comfortable accommodations for the humans. He met us at the house upon check in. Came back for us in the evening and took us on a tour of his large animal sanctuary. It was such a great experience! We will definitely be back!
