Just What the Doctor Ordered

Fabulous stay in a wonderful apartment in a beautiful setting. The farm was so peaceful and the animals were so entertaining. Homestead Farm was close to town but yet far enough away. The apartment was well appointed and very cosy. Everything went very smoothly and Ken was a great host Can't wait to return.

Loved our farm stay

Was a great time for our family, so close to Brevard! You do have to drive to waterfalls/hikes but it’s short! The kitchen is super equipped and! The donkey is the sweetest! Also, with kids, the laundry access is a win!

Country Cottage in the Mountains

This clean, quiet cottage was conveniently located between Brevard, DuPont State Recreational Forest and the Pisgah National Forest. Near trout fishing in the Davidson and French Broad Rivers. The second floor apartment was very clean and well appointed. It was quiet and featured a full suite of amenities. The hosts were close by and available to answer any questions which might arise. We were very pleased with the property and our stay.

All the comforts of home!

My two children and I spent the weekend in this adorable apartment while they were between sessions of summer camp. It is clean, comfortable, quiet, and convenient to many nearby restaurants and attractions. The hosts are so gracious and kind. This was our second stay here and we plan to return again. We couldn’t ask for a better place to enjoy a weekend together in Pisgah Forest!

Great location!

We really enjoyed our stay at Homestead Farm South. It’s close to Brevard, DuPont State Forest, Hendersonville, Pisgah National Forest and so much more. HFS had everything we needed and it was very clean and quiet. We really enjoyed our four nights there and we’d definitely stay there again. Ken and Kim were very nice and offered great suggestions for getting ahead of the crowds.

Can’t say enough good things about this place

Outside: This is such a beautiful property located on 22 acres of land. My friend and I enjoyed the quietness, privacy, fresh air and nature here. The farm animals also added charm to this location. We went in June and saw fireflies at night, so many of them on the trees and meadow. It was special! Inside: Very clean. It is probably the cleanest BnB I’ve been to and I’ve been to many. Kim and Ken made sure to maintain the apartment well. We cooked a few meals and we had all equipments we needed. Water, AC, washer/dryer were running well. I was quite surprised that the apartment is new and more modern than what showed in the photos. Hosts: Kim and Ken are good people. They are kind and honest. My friend and I enjoyed talking with them. We are deeply introverted so that says something. They don’t intrude but became so open and helpful when we approached them and asked for their help. I really enjoyed the stay here. Only thing I regret is not staying longer!

peaceful stay

We had a wonderful, peaceful stay in Brevard. We loved meeting Ken & Kim. They were great hosts. Very friendly and warm. The place was meticulous and comfy. Loved seeing the animals,, esp. holding a 5 day old goat! They gave us tips for restaurants, which were great also. We would highly recommend the place and hope to come back if we head to Brevard in the future. Mike & Lin May 20224

About the host

Hosted by Ken & Kim Burton

Homestead Farm South is named after Ken's ancestral home in Connecticut, Homestead Farm Dairy. When Ken and Kim moved to the mountains of North Carolina, they decided they would do something unconventional for a couple that had lived in the suburbs; they bought farm land and built Homestead Farm South. Ken wanted bison, Kim wanted goats, so they have goats, as well as a horse, chickens, turkeys, and a donkey.

Why they chose this property

Ken and Kim spent many months looking at properties, and they fell in love with the Little River valley area. Ken found this property when a colleague at work told him friends of his had property for sale, and when his coworker took him to show him the property, it was exactly where he and Kim had said they wanted to live.

What makes this property unique

Kim found the house plan and they made some changes to make it, including adding the apartment over the garage. Originally intended for visiting family and friends, or for a future Brevard College student willing to live there in exchange for helping out, they decided to try using it as a vacation rental at the encouragement of their contractor and with the assistance of a nearby B&B. It was a decision they have not regretted because they have had many wonderful people stay there through the years
