About this property

Welcome to 12 acres of the rest and relaxation you deserve!

Come experience Fern Holler!

PLEASE NOTE:

-NO ATVS INCLUDING 4 WHEELERS AND DIRT BIKES, FIREARMS, OR FIREWORKS ARE ALLOWED ON THE PROPERTY FOR ANY REASON UNLESS APPROVED BY THE OWNER.

-The Barn has a set of narrow stairs leading up to the loft bedroom. This may not be ideal for guests with mobility issues.

-There is a twin size rollaway bed available for the Barn at no charge if requested at booking.

-The Glamper sleeps 6 comfortably or up to 8 if the dinette and couch are converted.
IT DOES COST AN ADDITIONAL $100/NIGHT PLUS A $100 CLEANING FEE. IF A RENTER ONLY WANTS TO RENT THE BARN THEN THE GLAMPER WILL REMAIN LOCKED AND UNATTENDED DURING THEIR STAY.

This is a fully private 12 acre site with everything you need to get away and spend quality time with those you love without the hustle and bustle you may be used to!

The Barn is a fully renovated jewel!
You’ll find a beautiful tile floor on the main level and a patina tin ceiling throughout. There is a handmade live edge bar, coffee table and end tables. It even has an attached laundry room!

On rainy days, enjoy the 55 inch TV with a PlayStation 3 and an 4K Apple TV with high speed WiFi in the living room or the flat screen with a Roku upstairs from the adjustable Queen bed. There are also books and board games or you can watch the hummingbirds fly outside the window from the comfort of an oversized couch. To relax, you can soak in a hot bath for hours in the vintage claw foot tub cast in 1920 or listen to the rain hit the tin roof from the covered swing or the hot tub just outside your door.

The A.C. units on both levels are cold and the beds, an adjustable queen and two twins upstairs, are comfortable with all new linens.

Outside the Barn is the family fun area with a full size volleyball/badminton net. The supplies for other activities are available as well. Each site has its own charcoal grill and there is a hammock and picnic table at the barn as well as another fire ring with 4 custom Adirondack chairs that are perfect for those summer nights with family and friends!
(Firewood and charcoal are provided)
We have a new playground set for the littles and a glow in the dark badminton set!
Four long range walkie talkies as well as a Monster Glo Bluetooth speaker are provided for your stay.

At night the sky is clear and full of stars, perfect for kicking back and star gazing while the kids catch fireflies in the field.

At the Glamper, (for an additional cost), you can enjoy the attached deck and porch swing with a private view into the woods. There is also a fire pit with 4 custom Adirondack chairs for those chilly nights.
Inside, there is an Apple TV 4K for streaming, a dvd player, and entertainment center for the living room and bedroom that is capable of playing music inside and/or outside. There is also a full kitchen, dining area, and bathroom with a shower/tub. The back bedroom has 4 bunk beds and a flat screen tv with a Roku 4 ready for you to sign into your favorite apps. There is also a Nintendo 64 with games for all you retro gamers!
-The couch can also be converted to a bed making the Glamper capable of sleeping up to 7!
There are no neighbors in sight, no distractions and no noise except for the songbirds enjoying the suspended bird feeder cable in the field. You might also hear the owls chatting throughout the day and night. Check the pictures for other potential visitors passing through. This part of the woods loses power often, but not Fern Holler! There is a 18kw generator now ensuring that you never lose power during your stay in the boonies!

Try and find the two silly tree faces! One is next to the “reading nook” where you can watch the creek pass by. The other is next to one of the winding paths, which leads you to “The Island”, a beautiful, shady oasis and the perfect place to splash around! If you’re brave enough, cross the bridge to the other river rock path.

NOTE-pets are allowed with an extra $25 non-refundable deposit.
Please-no pets on the beds and clean up after them as you normally would.

We can't wait to host you at Fern Holler!

Little gem
The property was well maintained. I appreciated all the attention to the little details. We felt like there was a treasure to be found around every corner. The beds were comfortable, we all slept well. The stream and little trails with benches and a bridge were so cute. Such a nice, quiet place to get away. It was all set up for total relaxation and fun. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Perfect mountain getaway
The property itself is amazing, seclusion and privacy but only 20 minutes from town. Our dogs loved running loose in the yard and splashing in the creek, they had the time of their lives. We spent the days shopping, hiking and sightseeing, with endless things to do nearby. We started and ended every day in the hot tub, which left us feeling relaxed and rejuvenated! Charlotte goes out of her way to make sure you have what you need - plenty of firewood and all the essentials. She even left a beautiful bouquet of flowers for us. We truly felt like we were at a home away from home and we hope to return again in the future. You won’t regret staying here!

Amazing Getaway
We could not have asked for more. The kids and dog loved having space to roam and a creek to romp in. Absolutely amazing. My 6 year old is already asking to go back. Great family time over Memorial weekend.

You won’t want to get out of the property
It was an amazing Thanksgiving weekend! The property is beautiful and so comfortable, it pretty much has everything you need to the point you won’t want to leave it. A creek right behind your cabin , we enjoyed that so much! a good walk, a yummy breakfast and even some mimosas . We went for a short hike (within the property) we enjoyed some s’mores by the fire pit. Our son is 6 and our American bulldog is 7 , they both had the time of their lives! My parents stayed at the glamper and they loved it! Plus it gave them some privacy while we stayed at the cabin. Both families have small cars and we had zero issues to get there even by crossing the creek , so no big cars are needed to ge there (that was one of my concerns ) Thank you so much! It is in our books to be back :)

Fantastic Place
The property was beautiful. Instructions were clear, kind, and wholesome. I couldn't have asked for anything more. I have stayed in dozens of places traveling, and this was one of, if not the best experiences I have ever had.

Hi! My name is Charlotte Cook and this is mine and my Husbands property. We recognize that everyone needs a change from their daily grind to relax and regroup and there is no better place to do that than right here! This place is very special to us and we we want to share it with you. Enjoy the peace and tranquility of the woods and go home refreshed and ready for whatever is next in your life. As an added bonus your kids will love it too! After so many months of being cooped up these 12 acres will have them running, climbing, swimming, and laughing until they forget all about COVID and it’s restrictions.

Why they chose this property

Why this property?
Well for one, you can breathe here.
You can star gaze and watch the kids run and play and splash without leaving the hot tub or the porch swing. You can catch up on life while roasting marshmallows around the fire or just enjoy the songbirds and hummingbirds zinging past. You can do you, that's why.

What makes this property unique

We have a brand new playground, floating patio, custom outdoor furniture and a few extra swimming holes, courtesy of an amazing guest from the past. (These are just additions to the already established awesomeness of this property)
We are also within just a few miles of some amazing apple houses, FAMOUS cafes and eateries, vineyards, and hiking/fishing spots.
