Farmstay holiday rentals in Cape Fear River

We had a fantastic stay at this cottage! This was my first Airbnb experience, and it couldn’t have been better. We were in town for a working dog seminar, and traveling with a working/active dog can be challenging, as hotels are often surrounded by traffic and businesses. This place was absolutely perfect for us—just the right size for two adults and our large dog. The highlight of our stay was the host’s incredible hospitality. They not only allowed us to use one of their horse pastures to exercise our dog but also completely understood why it was so important for him to run. That level of understanding made all the difference, and we truly appreciated it. When we were not using the pasture we kept him on a leash as required and that was communicated ahead of time. We also loved meeting and feeding the horses on the property, which made our stay even more special. The peaceful setting, combined with thoughtful accommodations, made this first Airbnb experience an unforgettable one.

Nancy and Peter were warm and welcoming. We enjoyed hanging out with them and their animals as well as playing croquet. Lovely location. Would definitely return!

We had a wonderful time. The cabin is absolutely gorgeous and the view of the river is second to none. Would highly recommend this stay if you need a break from the noise of the city.

We absolutely loved this place and our stay. Such a peaceful place plenty of space indoors and outdoors. Stocked with anything you may possibly need, felt right at home would stay again and would definitely recommend wish our stay would have been linger.

This was a great hidden gem and the host always made sure to accommodate. Will definitely plan to stay here again.

Amazing stay - we loved feeding the sheep and lambs in the morning. Very comfortable, incredibly peaceful atmosphere. Ms. Lucy was kind enough to show us around the property and introduce us to all the animals. My girls are 3 and 5 and this stay was a core memory. We loved meeting the Great Pyrenees, peacocks, chicks and more!

I spent two full days here with my mom and my two-year old daughter. The little farmhouse was well-appointed and there were many charming little touches that made us feel at home. My daughter and I enjoyed sitting on the front porch and watching flocks of birds descend on the tall trees surrounding the property. Also, there is family graveyard in full view of the front porch and I liked the feeling of being connected to the history of the farmland. I think another review mentioned seeing chickens, but I took my daughter on a little walk and we didn't see any chickens or any other farm animals. We did hear some chickens (and maybe a goose?) near the trailer on the other side of the graveyard and we did see a small dog who came up to our porch and barked at us (I think the small dog belonged to the people who live in the trailer on the other side of the graveyard); that scared my daughter a little bit, but after that first day the little dog didn't come back.

Vickee was an amazing host and made sure we felt comfortable in her home during our stay. She communicated the whole time with me and was very responsive to any questions that I had. We stayed in her home for a couple of weeks so her and her cleaning team would come in periodically throughout our stay to change sheets, towels, etc. She has food available to us in her fridge for us that she prepared which was YUMMY. She also offered to cook us breakfast/ do anything she could to make sure we were recharged for our long work days at the IHFC. She also went out of her way to set up a table for our small team dinner that we hosted in her home during market. The home is in a beautiful and quiet location so do not hesitate booking. You can tell Vickee has a heart for what she does and she is wonderful at it. This is the BEST Airbnb house I have stayed in by far. We enjoyed our stay and we will be returning next time we are in North Carolina.

The place has personal touch to it. There is an authentic style in every detail. When we got to the house, it was already warmed up for us. Fully furnished coffee station. There was a lot of space in the backyard for our dog to run around. Overall, I was very impressed, photos don't give the full credit for what you get. Plenty of room for a pet and kids in the house. So far, my favorite Air BnB place by far.

Good location in proximity to the zoo. House was clean and easy to find. We had a lovely stay!

Amber's place is dream. The hot tub and space were charming and comfortable. waking up to all the animals helped start my day off the right way and was a complete mood booster. it was very clean and the hot tub is to die for. I would love to stay here again

Nice quiet get away from Fayetteville/Bragg. Wish we would have booked another night it was so nice! Hope we can make it back some day

We really enjoyed our stay at Lori's place. The house was very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed checking out the goats and donkeys on the property and the backyard was big enough for our dog to roam and explore. Lori is a great host and quick to reply with helpful tips and directions. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to the area.

It was perfect for our last Minute trip. Lock on bathroom didn’t work!

We had an incredible stay! The hosts were beyond kind and made us feel right at home. The house was absolutely adorable, cozy, and well-equipped. Our toddler loved the friendly farm animals, especially the cows and horses with the stunning view from the property. The hosts were so thoughtful, letting her interact with the animals and making her feel special. It was the perfect family getaway, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!

Had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lodge. The outdoor scenery was breathtaking. It was plenty of room for my family & I had zero problems checking in & out. The only issue I had was with the fireplace. I messaged Ashley if it was ok to start a fire & she informed me that the fireplace was out of order. Other than that, everything was perfect.

Absolutely perfect! Location perfect for our multiple college tours. The property is amazing. Bird song, deer, private pond. House is perfect for 4. Definitely will return.

This was not my first stay at the Scout House, and it will not be my last. Everything about it is perfection - from the location, to the property, to the sensational hosts (Marie & BJ). My stay was delightful in every way and I cannot wait to return!

LeAnn’s place was clean with a beautiful surround. Everything was as described and fit my family of 5 perfectly!

This beautiful little farm house felt just like home the moment we pulled in. The photos do not do this home justice. Very clean, comfortable and spacious. I prefer to unpack immediately and there was tons of space for our clothes, shoes and toiletries. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals, I appreciated the coffee, creamer and sugar being available on arrival. We also took advantage of the outdoor firepit despite the weather, we enjoyed it so much. This was the perfect place to escape, rest, and reconnect with my family.

I often stay at Airbnbs for vacations. My entire family including the dog found this to be the most relaxing and beautiful place thus far. Currie as a host is exceptional. The home was inviting from the driveway and through. We relaxed and hated to leave even when we had to go places. Thanks Currie - we will return!!!

We were made to feel like royalty. The Prescott Farm is a jewel in South Carolina. The log cabin is perfect in every single way. We also were totally spoiled with fresh eggs, juice and muffins. This trip was to relax and regroup with family. Thank you Prescotts for the lovely visit!

We stay here twice a year for a week at a time, and this is our third year. Always a pleasure to stay here with our two dogs. Tile floors and throw rugs, great with dogs! Nice fenced in back yard and away from town. We enjoy staying here and visiting our family. Lorraine and Mike are the best hosts, and always happy to see them. I very much recommend the Hermitage.

We’ve stayed in lots of Airbnb’s and this was definitely one of the loveliest. Really great space, peaceful, private and well equipped, with all you could need and lots of welcome treats. The wildlife (deer, squirrels and loads of birds) and Juno and Scout added to the fun. Thanks Rebecca for hosting, just the break we needed and lovely being able to walk to places too. Hope to be back soon!
