I love everything about this property and its host. This is our second stay here this year and if I find myself back in this part of NC, I wouldn’t want to stay any where else.

Amazing stay. Hosts made this Easter weekend amazing as lots of room for egg hunts for the kiddos. They also gave us a big basket of goodies to start the week. Great fishing in the pod for bass and perch; caught and released a lot. Reached out and offered a tour of the barns and introduced us to the animals. Very clean, comfy and lots of room for the family. Games inside and out and overall relaxing experience.

The Host left no rock unturned when it came to making sure all our needs were met. They were so accommodating, so kind, they occasionally text us to be sure everything was going well and to our satisfaction. Words like, “If there is anything more we can do just let us know”, wow we really appreciated that. Thankyou so much for a wonderful stay. Sal and Val

The Sugar Ranch was perfect for the 4 of us. We loved the property and the amazing farm animals! The owners are so kind. We appreciated the Farm Tour and the welcome basket and fresh eggs! Would happily stay again.

Brenda and her family are absolutely incredible. Our trip truly did not feel like we were staying at a VRBO- they made us feel like family. The land is amazing, the home is beautiful and SPOTLESS, and they are the most welcoming, thoughtful, and kind people around. You absolutely will not find a better place or a better price. Their attention to detail is immaculate and we will never stop talking about this trip!

Tranquil Stay

We loved this property so much. It was clean and had plenty of supplies to include farm fresh eggs upon arrival. The acrivities in the backyard were perfect. We fished in the pond and caught several bass. We kayaked, played board games, and roasted marshmellows one night. Mrs. Brenda was very accomodating, friendly, and responsive. She let our two little kids pet the farm animals, feed them treats, and collect eggs. They loved it. Thank you so much.
