Our little family came to Hendersonville as a convenient spot from which to see family and friends in Gastonia, Shelby, Hendersonville, and Asheville during the holidays. My kiddos loved walking across the street to see the horses, and we had a delightful afternoon in downtown Hendersonville. It was rainy during our stay, so we didn’t take advantage of the cute fire pit and the proximity to beautiful hiking trails and waterfalls that my family rave about. We hope to return in the summer or fall to do so! I adored cooking on the cute yet spacious stove and cleaning up dishes in front of the large kitchen window.
Excellent small property in a great location. Close to numerous State Parks, trails, water falls and local eateries. We plan to go back and finish what we missed doing.
Really enjoyed our stay. Comfortable, updated, vintage farmhouse overlooking a working horse farm.
very close to hiking trails and waterfalls in the state parks.
Quiet country farmhouse, near great hiking, close to Brevard and Hendersonville. Great fun watching the horses while sitting on the porch. Nice place to get some rest.
Best location for peace and quiet! Enjoyed morning coffee on front porch watching the horses. Located near Dupont state park, beautiful waterfalls. Cottage was excellent. Hope to stay there again.
We loved our stay at the quaint farmhouse. It is a precious small cottage in all the best ways. Our children are already asking to go back. We loved greeting the horses in the morning and loving a sweet pup as well. Great proximity to all Hendersonville has to offer. We went snowtubing, explored the downtown area and hiked to triple falls before heading home.
The house was very clean and had everything we needed.
Can’t wait to come back for another visit.
Everyone in Hendersonville was extremely nice and pleasant, great food, great trails and beautiful waterfalls. The only thing I would have minimal complaint about is the low hot water pressure in the rental.
Perfect spot for weekend getaway with small children
We loved our stay and will definitely come back. Outdoor space was nice, and furniture/beds were cozy. Kitchen had everything we needed, and the cottage was clean and super cute. Note- the mattresses are on the softer side. We all slept great, but noting for folks that prefer a harder mattress. Plenty of linens and towels for everyone, and super convenient to Dupont State Park hikes and waterfalls. Also convenient to Pisgah and Brevard. The bathroom is on the smaller side, but that wasn't an issue for us. My kids loved watching the horses in the pasture across the street. Overall perfect for our weekend getaway.
The 1920’s farmhouse cottage is charming and a privilege to experience. The farm is beautiful, and every window in the cottage has an exceptional view. We arranged for our granddaughter to have a riding lesson during our visit, and we all appreciated viewing the horses in the the pasture across the street from the porch. Anyone who appreciates vintage charm in a farm setting would enjoy this location.
We wanted a beautiful stay in the country and that’s exactly what we got! Tranquility, beauty and relaxation, all while being close to the things we came to do: hiking, swimming in waterfalls, horseback riding. I highly recommend this beautifully updated 1920’s farmhouse nestled in the middle of a working horse farm. Where you can sit on the porch and eat your supper and listen to the horses neigh, have amazing sunset views, and watch the fire flies dance when the sun goes down. It was a little slice of heaven.
We always enjoy the stay at Shoal Creek. The cottage is over a 100 years old which provides character with all the amenities. We appreciate the use of a couple pastures for our trusty steeds while there. The location is perfect for riding out to the Dupont trails or trailering over to other trailheads nearby. It's just a short drive to Brevard with cute shops and good restaurants. Bring lots of fly spray for the horses if you bring them this time of year.
Amazing location, very cute and comfortable cottage
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The setting is magical - beautiful mountains, rolling hills and farmland, with horses right across the street. A nice little yard for the kids to roam around. The house was comfortable and well laid-out. Perfect location for exploring DuPont and Pisgah. Note that there is no cell service in the area, and the wifi is dependent on satellite. There were limited supplies in the house, but we brought our own food and only stayed for two nights so that wasn't an issue. We will be back!
Loved the doggies (Willard!), who greeted us upon arrival. Loved the serenity of the natural surroundings. The cottage is totally comfy and almost magical if you’re ok with a vintage vibe. Super private. The covered porch looking at the horses and mountains was like therapy (I lost my 30 yo thoroughbred the same week). The bathroom was really challenging but it wouldn’t deter us from booking again. It’s the perfect balance of unpretentiousness and charm! Short drives to Hendersonville and Brevard were fun. The hour drive to Greenville SC was totally worth it! Saw a black bear on the NC Arboretum trails. So much fun! The mountains and peace and quiet were healing to the soul. We took everything at a chill pace but packed a lot in.
We liked this property overall. It’s comfortable, quiet, clean, nicely landscaped, and the front porch is a plus. The big drawback is the bathroom. It’s annoyingly tiny and could use an upgrade. We stayed at the property for its proximity to DuPont State Forest. The hike to the waterfalls was worth some strenuous sections and the falls were stunning. Go early to avoid crowds. Now that we’ve checked that off our list of things we wanted to experience I don’t think we will book the cottage again. We spent our last day in the mountains at the Biltmore Estate and had a great time.
So we were going to cancel our trip because the Cradle of Forestry cancelled our tour to see the blue ghost fireflies. Thankfully Olivia was able to tell us some other places to look and we had a successful adventure! The house was awesome and so cute. My youngest really enjoyed seeing the horses across the street. As an added bonus, Brevard was having their White Squirrel Festival. We didn't think they were real until we saw one while driving down the road. What a cool weekend. Thanks!
