Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Scott Brians
We have hosted for 10 years in Saint Augustine, Florida before relocated to beautiful Black Mountain. We came half back from our original home of Cincinnati, Ohio. We love engaging with our guests when they have questions about the area or just our life and home. We enjoy boating on Lake James (about 45 minutes away) hiking some nearby trails or walking our dogs around lake tomahawk (less than 1 mile away.) Our life is our farm and our family. You will usually catch us at the farmers markets or local restaurants. We love hearing about all the different families that stay with us, making relationships and hosting the same families for years to come.
Why they chose this property
To have 2.5 acres within a mile of downtown Black Mountain is a dream. We completely overhauled our house and then got to work on the cabins. The property was then fenced in and the pastures set up to safely protect our animals. We love the proximity to Highland Farms Givens retirement home and hope that many families that are here to visit their loved ones will come stay with us and be able to walk to visit their family members there.
What makes this property unique
We are a farm stay so if you love animals and nature you will love our cabin. You can look out your windows or your porch and see the goats playing with each other or our mini ponies running around or just laying in the sun. We are moving our ducks into our duck pond this spring and hoping they will bring us some baby ducks. Our chickens have a large run and we are doubling our numbers this spring so chances are you will be able to see our baby chickens. From the fountain in the pond, the waterfall in the koi pond, our gardens that we are currently working on to the bees we hope to keep soon there will be so much to engage you and learn about. We hope to offer educational programs and field trips next year and we are continually growing and adding to our halfback home.
