Spacious Historic Manor with Chef's Kitchen • Horse-Friendly

This enormous Southern Pines house boasts 7 inviting bedrooms, including 4 king beds, 3 queen beds, and 2 twin beds (bunk beds). Bring the whole family together in our stately yet cozy historic manor, nestled peacefully among mature longleaf pines. Built in 1916, Skyline Manor was made for hosting, historically serving as a bed & breakfast, nightclub, and even a speakeasy! Now, with 7 bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms, and many comfortable lounging areas, the manor is the perfect place for large groups (up to 18 guests) to spend time together. On-site stalls for horse boarding are also available at a rate of $30 per horse per night.

Max occupancy is 18 guests (and children under 2 years of age do not count towards the occupancy limit). We look forward to welcoming you!
