What a great place to relax and enjoy the colors of fall. Our kids loved exploring by the creek, making smores by the bonfire, and loving on the cats, Gizmo and Hannah. Your hospitality was wonderful.
I would love to see this place when the snow falls. We'll plan another trip here when it does!
Thank You,

The McSpadden Family, Evans, Georgia

Joan and Andre, we really enjoyed staying at Sunflower Farm. We were a bit reluctant to rent a "house" in the mountains, as we are typically "cabin renters". What a pleasant surprise we found here at the farm! It was a great place for us to spend our 6th Anniversary. We really felt quite at home the entire time, and hate to leave tomorrow. This is the most relaxed we've both been in quite some time. We really appreciate your hospitality and the lovely decorations and special touches around your home. We can't wait to come back!

We had a fabulous time and enjoyed staying here. This is our fourth vacation in the mountains, and your house is by far the most beautiful and welcoming place we've stayed. The grounds are gorgeous, the pool was refreshing, and the house was so well decorated with great amenities.
We recommend Blue Mt.Pizza, Stoney Knob Cafe and the North Star Diner in Weaverville. We recommend Lake Julian for family friendly fishing.
We look forward to coming back!

Dear Joan and Andre,
Your house has been the perfect place to unwind and play! From the cats entertaining Luke to the fresh garden tomatoes to eat, this really has been a wonderful weekend.
The house and grounds are beautiful and are even better than in the photos on the web ~ which isn't always the case! At times it has almost felt like we were in Europe rather than N.C.~ must be your travels rubbing off and the wonderful decor.
We shall certainly be back and tell all we know about this special place ~ despite wanting to keep it for ourselves! Thanks again!
