About this property

Our Lavender Hill Farm house is perfect for family reunions, ladies retreats, birthdays and more! We are situated on 11 acres with a 4 acre fishing pond and the farmhouse is surrounded by beautiful gardens featuring many roses bushes and lavender. We have a swimming pool, fire pit, 2 paddle boats, 2 kayaks and outdoor games, including a volleyball net, basketball and horseshoes. The grounds include a large vegetable garden, fruit trees and grapevines. Guests are welcome to pick vegetables and herbs, including mint, basil, oregano, thyme and parsley from our garden (seasonal) and we will provide fresh eggs from our chickens which are located on the other side of the pond. Guests may also be able to sample our homemade wine and salsa when available. The house is secluded but on the adjacent property is our managers house and he is available to help with any special needs. Canton First Monday Trade Days in Canton is an easy 20 minute drive as are the towns of Mabank and Terrell. We are about 30 minutes away from three large lakes, but you won't want to leave our house!

Great Family Weekend

Convenient local with great country atmosphere. Kids loved the pool and s’mores on the fire pit. First visit to Canton’s First Monday Trade Days for several of us. Only issue - Couldn’t get the pin # to work on the specified entry. But the nearby kitchen door was unlocked.

Relaxing Getaway

So much to do! Lots of opportunities to relax and catch up with family members away from city distractions. We viewed lovely sunsets, walked the property while the dogs romped, playing indoor and outdoor games of all types, and this visit we spent a lot of time chilling in the pool and hot tub. Ideal family memory maker!

About the host

Hosted by Destine Roberts

Why they chose this property

We've owned this property since 2009. Our children have grown up coming here on weekends, during the summer and holidays and it has a special piece of our hearts. Once you arrive, you will fall in love with it also. Whether it's a family holiday, girls weekend, or family reunion, everyone will enjoy relaxing and enjoying nature at it's best. Children love exploring and adults love all of the amenities our farm has to offer.

What makes this property unique

We've worked years on our beautiful flower, vegetable and wine gardens. We have a pond stocked with black bass, perch and catfish, and encourage you to catch and feed them. We have a wonderful fire pit where you can sit around and listen to music and roast marshmallows for s'mores (included). Visit the chickens and eat some fresh eggs for breakfast. Chefs will enjoy all of the fresh herbs we have growing by the swimming pool. We have plants that butterflies and bees love, so if you or someone in your party has an allergy to bees, please use extra caution.
