Relaxing Home Base
My spouse and I stayed here with my 3-year-old, along with my brother and sister-in-law, as we gathered in Greenville for a family reunion. We loved this clean, relaxing spot and enjoyed meeting the goats and other animals! Everything was neat and orderly in the house and there was enough space for us to be together comfortably. We'd stay here again next time we're in the area!

Peaceful retreat
Clean, quiet place to stay. Our grandkids enjoyed the goats, friendly dogs, and occasional visit from two cats that stayed outside. Easy and quick responses from owner/propery manager. Would stay here again.

Weekend Getaway
Our stay was incredible! The lighted gazebo was amazing and we enjoyed every second of it! It was so homie and the location was perfect! We have already talked and we want to come back when it’s cooler so we can enjoy the fire pit outside! Thank you again for an amazing stay!
