This cabin was the perfect place for a group of outdoor lovers to ring in the new year. We spent time hiking nearby trails and enjoyed a snowy hike on the farmâs loop trail. Our four-legged companion had an equally great time. Canât wait to come back over the summer during blueberry season!
The grounds are beautiful. The cottage is surrounded by small mountains and thereâs a small stream and places to sit by water to enjoy the view. However, cooking supplies are limited (no frying pan for example) and master bedroom with larger bed is upstairs where there is no heat or air. We didnât want to open window because of bugs as there were only a few windows with screens. Downstairs beds are full sized which are great for children but not for couples. Owners are accessible and friendly. Best to stop at grocery store before coming as not much nearby in secluded setting.
We really enjoyed our stay at Old Orchard Creek Farm. It is a beautiful and peaceful place. The cabin was very comfortable, and the hike was wonderful. Our dogs had a great time as well. We would love to visit again.
Beautiful farm with 2.5 mile walk around the property with gorgeous pastures, woods and Mountain Views! Cute and comfortable cottages and wonderful hosts! Our second visit and we will return!
Old Orchard Creek Farm was wonderful. We stayed in the Chestnut Cottage which was super quaint and comfortable. Sitting on the porch later in the evening, all you could hear were the apples dropping from the trees!
The property is actually better than described. The owners are very thoughtful and have provided most everything you will need. I highly reccomend a vacation or just a simple getaway. We will be going back!
Beautiful location. Great views. Hike was amazinglyâŠabsolutely beautiful. Our dog loved being off leash to explore!! Will definitely be back to try the other cottage with the deck for viewing stars! Hopefully we can stay longer next time. Thank you. And the general store was so cuteâŠbest blueberry scone ever!!
I cannot say enough about how wonderful our stay was at Old Orchard Creek. The cabin was beautiful and comfortable. But the farm itself was amazing. Quiet and peaceful. Blueberries and apples, chestnut trees and hiking. What more could you want?
And Walter was the perfect host.
The weekend was a much needed respite before the start of a busy school year. The farm is so peaceful and inviting. Loved cool mornings on the porch. Easy walks around the farm.
Yes on blueberry hill or rather Old Orchard Creek's farm and VRBO. It is rare to step into a corner of the world where everything is just right. Our long weekend at Old Orchard Creek farm's Chestnut cottage was the space and place we needed to get away. We loved the cabin - details, comfort and coziness. We dove into the surrounding nature with a powerful walk around the ridge that provided views to Mount Rogers and the rest of the Blue Ridge in North Carolina's Lost Province. We enjoyed the hospitality of Johnny and Walter (and Colin and Emma) who made our stay as easy and peaceful as possible. Finally this part of North Carolina is a revelation - from the history to the culture and nature - you have so much to experience. The Lansing General store offered tasty baked good and excellent coffee drinks for our time in town. We will be back and plan on making this a tradition. thank you.
A charming property on a beautiful peaceful location with a touch of whimsy
If you are looking for a quiet, peaceful time in a beautiful place, you'll enjoy this historic cabin/cottage. Nothing fancy, but full of charm. The upstairs bedroom is of particular interest. A bedroom with it's own library. When I saw this, I immediately thought of my relatives that would love this property. Not only upstairs but all through the cabin, books are everywhere. Look at the farm, pet the pooches and cats, and read all day. The bathroom is kind of a throw back to old timey showers in styling but, the water is hot! Many times, in these rentals, owners can sometimes have a tendency to have the water temperature set for economy, but, not here. Bravo! If you choose to stay here, be sure to visit the owners new coffee/antique/art shop in downtown Lansing. It's going to be a great place to hang out after walking in the town's new park. The owners are great people and have great history to share with you about this blueberry/apple/pear farm. Thanks to Walter and Johnny sharing some of their heaven with us.
Fantastic visit. Hosts are gracious and easy to communicate with. Hiking trail on the farm was very well maintained & have amazing vistas. Close to lots of great trails & Lansing definitely has a cool & friendly vibe to it. Hope to visit again!
