A step back in time... This yellow farm house has been restored in the most remarkable way! The house is beautiful and our whole crew enjoyed themselves so much!!! The host was helpful and available (which we so appreciated). If you are looking to experience history in a beautiful setting, this is your place.
Kelly T. 8/01/2022The Iconic Yellow Farmhouse was an idyllic, relaxing destination for my family and me. Located about 15 minutes from downtown Burnsville, it's a convenient location that still enables you to feel like you're set off from the humdrum of everyday life. The babbling creek that runs along the property provides a constant, calming soundtrack for the house's quiet, clean interior. The farmhouse is clean, well-stocked and perfect for those looking to get out into the country, unplug and truly relax. Kerstin and John were consummate hosts as well: clear communicators and always offering to help answer questions or alleviate concerns (we had no issues at all while staying the house. It was great!).
Greg 7/30/2022Quiet stay in historic home. We really enjoyed our stay in the farmhouse. It was one of the best kept historic homes we've stayed in. Our kids ages 3 and 6 loved the large yard. However, the creek was too advanced for their age. Thankfully there was a wide, shallow creek/river nearby that was much more our speed. The house was very comfortable and we loved the sound of the rushing creek through the open windows. It's right near the road and other neighbors so it's not a secluded location if that's what you're looking for. The internet was perfect so we were able to stay in touch without cell signal. The only downside is that it is a solid 15-20 minutes from Burnsville and isn't near anything. We only went out once a day so it was manageable. Burnsville itself has so many great dining options so we really enjoyed our stay!
Natalie 7/25/2022The little yellow farmhouse did not disappoint… It’s very close to Burnsville and about 40 minutes away from everything else because of having to drive around the mountain! The house is very comfortable the yard is great, fire pit amazing and the creek is the best… I suggest leaving the windows open at night and listening to the babbling Brook! A new favorite that we found down the road is Carolina hemlocks State Park… I totally recommend this property for a great getaway in the mountains!!! I would also add thatJohn and Kirsten were super responsive regarding any issues or questions that we had….. We mainly cooked in so I have no recommendations about local restaurants etc.… Highly recommend this location!
