Mark of Design Farmhouse Retreat | Other in Hillsville
4 Bedroom Place in Hillsville
2020 marks the 100-year-old birthday of this charming farmhouse, located on a working horse farm within the town of Hillsville. It has been meticulously redecorated in 2015-16, with an elegantly simple flavor, displaying original hardwood floors, soften with area oriental style rugs. Central heat provides indoor comfort and usually, a breeze across the front porch. The house sleeps 8 and there is table seating for 21, in case family stops by. The peace and quiet will make you feel like you are a million miles from civilization when the town is just around the corner. Food Lion is less than one mile. Ask about the farm experience and the horse whispering experience.
Located in the Blue Ridge Mountains, there are breathtaking fall leaf colors and splendid mountain views. The New River supports fishing, kayaking, and canoeing, while the New River Trail is 51 miles of walking, bicycling, or horseback riding. Nearby is the Blue Ridge Parkway, which you can visit Chateau Morrisette, Blue Ridge Music Center or Mabry Mill which is the most photographed mill in the nation.
Hillsville hosts the largest single-town flea market east of the Mississippi. The Flea Market and Gun Show is held annually on Labor Day Weekend. The Beaver Dam Nature Trail for hiding is located 5 minutes from the farmhouse.
For history buffs, Hillsville is the location of the 1912 Courthouse Tragedy involving the Allen family. The town was gaining headline news across the country when the sinking of the Titanic took the nation's attention. You can see the historic courthouse with original bullet holes in the steps, the renovated unique Allen home, and the Felts Mansion, Cliffview, built by the one owner of the Felts-Baldwin Detective Agency which was instrumental in bringing the shooters to justice. My farmhouse has some good reads on the original event. The Carroll County Historical Society located in the old courthouse has artifacts along with Harmon's Museum in Woodlawn.
The first weekend in August hosts the famous Galax Fiddlers Convention. The historic Rex Theatre in Galax offers music shows every weekend and occasional entertaining plays. Down the street are the Chestnut Creek Arts Center and antiquing opportunities downtown Galax, 13 miles away.
Mt. Airy, home of Andy Griffith, is 28 miles South. It has captured the feel of Mayberry, his TV home in the Andy Griffith Show, and hosts the annual Mayberry Days in September. Shop, have a Barney Burger, maybe meet Thelma Lou, and tour the town in Barney's squad car.
Beaver Dam Creek Trail is nearby for hiking. Golfing is hosted by Blue Ridge Country Club, Galax Municipal Golf Course, and Ole Mill Golf Course in Laurel Fork.
