Charming Farmhouse on Beautiful Horse Farm

The Flying Duck Farmhouse is a restored vintage farmhouse located at the foot of Three Sisters Mountains less than 4 miles from downtown Dahlonega. Surrounded by horse pastures, wineries, hiking trails, waterfalls, breathtaking views and one of the most delightful small towns in the USA. Spend a weekend in our clean mountain air enjoying the unique shops and restaurants in Dahlonega and local wineries (Cavender Creek, Wolf Mountain, Frogtown and Kaya Vineyards are all less than 5 miles away). Or, you can enjoy hiking, rafting, kayaking, mountain climbing, zip lining, trout fishing, or just relaxing. Our Farmhouse is the perfect get away in a great location.

The farmhouse can accommodate up to 5 people. There are two bedrooms each with a queen bed and one pullout sofa in the living room. To make your sleep more comfortable, we use PeachSkin Bedding and hypoallergenic pillow covers. There is a fully equipped kitchen if you want to eat-in. The decor is cozy with a quirky edge to add some happy to your stay.

Just a short walk away is a large deck overlooking a beautiful stream - a perfect place to pan for gold or have cocktails. You may run into Katie, our miniature donkey, who loves to have her ears rubbed or see horses grazing in the pastures.

There is a large pond on the farm that has lots fish. You are welcomed to bring your poles/bait and try your luck. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Catch and release only please.

We have just added a fire pit at the farmhouse for your use.

We love our horse farm and enjoy sharing it with others.

We came for a short trip to explore and loved it so much we stayed an extra night ! The house and property are even better than they appear in pictures. My kids loved visiting the animals and catching fish. We felt right at home and would love to return one day.

Mothers Day Getaway

My mom and I stayed at Duck Farm for a Mother/Daughter Mother's Day weekend getaway in May 2025. We had a wonderful experience! The farm house is exactly as pictured - well stocked, clean with a lovely, homey feel! Perfect location, very convenient to several wineries and downtown Dahlonega. Would definitely stay again!

Loved this little farm cottage!!

The property is beautiful, the house is adorable, the horses and mini donkey (Katie) are so cute. This was the perfect getaway! We did the Amicalola falls hike (about 30 mins away). Love this place! We will definitely be back!

Excellent accommodation for nearby wedding.

The house was easy to find, very clean, decorated nicely, and had everything our family of 5 needed. We walked the horse farm property and our kids loved seeing the horses, donkey, and dogs. We enjoyed talking to the property owners and watching them ride horses before going into Dahlonega and attending our wedding 1mile away. Peaceful location and beautiful stars but close to many things to do. We would stay here again.

Great Horse Farm and Hosts!

We enjoyed our stay here, in the country but close to lots of wineries, food and shopping! Loved that you can walk around the property and pet the horses and especially the miniature donkey! Hosts were very friendly and responsive!

Best VRBO Ever!

This VRBO should be rated 10 stars instead of 5! We had the best stay last weekend with our family. Brenda & Mike are wonderful and Katie the Donkey, stole our hearts! My children loved all the animals and caught SO much fish. The house is so clean and well stocked! Beds are very comfy :) We can not wait to come back again. We highly recommend staying here.

Our second time here!

Our family came in April for a quick weekend wedding, but knew we wanted to come back in the summer to experience more in the town. We had the best time doing all things! Dahlonega is such a sweet town. We even visited the community pool in town and paid a small fee to enter, highly recommend going in the summer if you have kids! Lazy river, water slides and pool were a hit! The property once again was amazing. The house is so clean and Brenda and Mike are amazing hosts. My girls loved seeing all the animals again especially Katie & John Wayne and catching so many fish! My 10 year old daughter reeled in a 5lbs 3oz bass! The property was great to relax on. We can’t wait to come back again, our kids ask often! I highly recommend staying here if you’re looking in this area.

This property is awesome and on amazing property! Very spacious and very nice cottage! The only thing that we wish would have been bigger was the shower but we managed! It was an easy drive from town to house and the wineries were great! Highly recommend the Duck property! Thanks for a great time!
