Your own privacy and acreage, but still with full access to our popular farm! Families with little ones LOVE being able to leave the farm to "slow their kids down" and separate farm life from sleepy time.


We are located on Sugar Grove NC, a small, quiet farming community and a 15-20 minute drive to Boone NC, the center of the High Country!


PETS REQUIRE PRE-APPROVAL: Usually one dog under 50 pounds & $50 fee … pls message us with the weight and breed of your dog(s).
During your stay at this cabin, you're just a quick walk from Watauga River. The cabin includes amenities such as a kitchen and 2 bathrooms.
  • Air-conditioned cabin with kitchen, washing machine, and 2 bathrooms
  • Just a 1-minute drive from Watauga River and 11 minutes from Watauga Lake

Gingerbread House and Farm
This place was absolutely amazing. We had 4 cows at the Gingerbread house that we could watch graze while we set in the hot tub. There was a lovely fire pit and wood for sale on the property. The house was so clean. We went to the farm 3 days and stayed for hours at a time. We rode the waterslide, played pickleball, spent a lot of time in the petting zoo, hiked, and relaxed in the many swings and benches throughout the property. Our girls rode inner tubes down the creek and I did the zip line which was so much fun. We really enjoyed ourselves and would definitely recommend it and go back. Connie, the host, was so nice. There are s’mores kits, fresh eggs, charcoal, and other miscellaneous items for sale in the shed when you come into the farm. We had a blast!

Beautiful House, Location, Large Property and Animals
We visited the farm and had a blast on the multi-acre farm with lovely critters. The Gingerbread House was great and we loved our cows on the hill and 3 or so chipmunks in the front yard. Great views from every angle. ....We had a ton of fun here. This country boy felt right at home. The fire pit and hot tub were an added bonus.

Worked well for us
The location was great for our travels to The Land of Oz at Beech Mountain. Boone was full for a ballgame and I was happy to find this lovely home. The house was super clean and quiet. The only issue we had and is just a suggestion, other places I have stayed have a Keurig or coffee machine and coffee supplies there. Nothing is close by so we all had to wait until Boone for our coffee stop that morning. Again that isn’t a big deal just a suggestion for future guests. It would have been a gorgeous porch to start the day on with a cup. I imagine that when autumn colors arrive this is an exceptional place to stay as well.

Great stay
We had a great time at the Gingerbread House. Beds were comfy. We had everything we needed. It was fun to watch the butterflies, humming birds, and cows. The kids loved rolling down the hill in front. We had quite a lot of rain that stopped some of our outdoor plans. We got to go to the farm for a short while.

Everything was amazing! The house was perfect for my friends annual girls trip. There was 6 of us and we had plenty of space to spread out. The hot tub was our favorite. The farm was so much fun, we went twice to play with the baby goats. Communication was very good wirh the owner. She reponded quickly to my questions.

White Christmas at Sugar Grove
We arrived to find a beautifully decorated, super clean, warm, comfortable home with plenty of room to celebrate a peaceful Christmas Eve! We saw deer browsing in the snow on the hill behind the house. We enjoyed the sheltered hot tub even as a light snow was falling. Thank you!

Great experience. My girls love the goats and bunnies!! Wish it didn’t rain most of our stay, but other than that it was great. The bunnies and goats barn could use a lil cleaning, but I understand it gets messy quick. The goats and bunnies appeared happy and pretty well taken care of❤️.

This is a great property exactly as advertised. The granddaughters loved the rabbits, chickens, and goats...not to mention all the other wild animals. Property was clean, well maintained, and comfortable. About the only negative comment we would have is that we could not find a large fry pan? But the house is so well equipped we made due.
