The space
The Seed House is renovated in a rustic Americana farmhouse style. Its unique octagonal shape is derived from eight former seed bays that fan out around the central silo. Most of the space is comprised of contiguous living areas for dining, lounging, yoga, board games, TV, or however you want to spend your time indoors! There is an adorable octagonal kitchen in the center silo stocked with all the basics. The 2 bedrooms are at the back of the space with an adjacent bathroom that is accessible from the main living area. There is a full wall between the bedrooms. The walls to the living area are about 10ft high and open to the soaring ceiling the rest of the way. There are curtains on all of the French doors for privacy. There is also a queen sofa-bed and single day bed in the main living area. Sound also travels very well in the Seed House. It’s a great place for a private getaway or to share with people you know and love!

We have a small covered deck out front, a fire pit around the side, and a huge lawn to stretch out on; all great spots to sip on your favorite beverages, read a book, steal a wink, or whatever you do to relax. There is also a historic, renovated cotton gin building on the property which is available for wedding and event rentals! www.theoldcottongin.com

Hi, I’m Scott, a friendly North Carolinian who loves people (especially their dogs). My long career in food & bev has taught me how to take care of people and I’m grateful for the privilege to be your host! We’ve been lucky enough to collect a few special places that we’ve poured lots of love into to make them ready for you. Our spaces are unique, just like all of the guests that stay in them. Everyone is welcome in our homes! A few of my favorite places to travel: New Orleans, Miami, the Hudson Valley, and the Blue Ridge Mountains.
