🌿 Welcome to Starry Nights — Your NC Farm Adventure

If you’re craving a place where kids unplug, adults exhale, and memories happen naturally, we deliver a one-of-a-kind farm stay experience you won’t find anywhere else.

This cozy upper level of our Barn sits on a 20-acre farm with a trout stream (that doubles as a tubing creek), ponds, ANIMALS, and built-in adventure, creating the perfect blend of peaceful retreat and hands-on fun — ideal for families, couples, or anyone needing a reset in nature.

🌄 Outdoor Experience (This Is What Guests Remember)

Built-in Adventure for Discovery:
• Private Hot Tub for stargazing and unwinding
• Trout stream perfect for fishing, splashing, or tubing
• Zipline adventures for kids and adults
• Full-Size Pickleball Court
• Giant Year-Round Water/Snow Tube Slide
• Friendly farm animals that delight guests of all ages (Petting Zoo: Pig, Goats, Bunnies, Full Bird Aviary & Ponies), and hopefully baby goats
• Fire Pits & outdoor seating for slow evenings and S'mores
• Trampoline, Land Art, Swings Galore & Hiking Trails

We aren't just a place to sleep — we are an experience guests, young and old, talk about long after they leave.

🐾 Dog Friendly. One dog max & under 50 pounds. We do NOT accept dogs that bark uncontrollably when guests are not present!


🏡 Your Barn

Welcome to Fairytale, the lower-level cabin inside our 100-year-old barn — thoughtfully restored with salvaged wood, vintage tin tiles, and modern comforts woven throughout.

This is where rustic charm meets cozy magic.

Step inside and you’ll find single-level living designed for comfort and ease year-round. King master, 2-twin guest bedroom and a futon (sleeping 6 max). The cabin features a fully stocked kitchen, open living space, and unique Social Media-worthy finishes giving the space its unmistakable character.

Outside on your private side deck, you’ll have:
• Your own hot tub
• A private, rock fire pit
• A grill for evening cookouts
• Peaceful views of the farm

And then… there’s the rest of the property.

The petting zoo is just about 100 yards away. Wander through the gates and meet the goats, bunnies, and whoever else happens to be holding court that day, they are a real trip. Kids love it. Adults love it. Everyone leaves smiling.

Follow the manicured trails down to the state-stocked trout stream, discover whimsical land art, swings tucked into the woods, or just slow down and breathe in the quiet.

Fairytale is perfect for:
• Couples wanting something cozy and unique
• Small families who love animals and the outdoors
• Anyone craving a farm stay that feels playful but peaceful

This is not a sterile, cookie-cutter cabin.
It’s a storybook space with history in the walls, tin on the ceilings, and goats in the distance.

Single-level, easily accessible year-round, and designed for guests who want a little charm with their adventure. ✨

NOTE: This is the lower level of the Barn, there will be guests above you, but nothing is shared but a roof. You have your own entrance on a different level, your own hot tub, grill and even have your own HVAC.

Neighborhood highlights

The Bethel community is an old school farming community with beautiful neighbors and state-maintained roads. It reminds guests a lot of Valle Crucis but even more laid back. It is where you would go to unplug and unwind away from the hustle and bustle. If you want restaurants 5 minutes away, we are no the spot! :)
