Its on a distillery with a field containing donkeys and cows. The property was decorated uniquely with time period items and very quaint. It was a beautiful property woth a fire pit, snacks and a view.

Lovely girls weekend

We had the best time! We really appreciated the fresh milk we drank with our coffee each morning and loved looking at the cows and donkeys. It was cool to visit the distillery too. We’d love to come back! We recommend renting kayaks on the Dan River and Molasses for dinner.
