Welcome to Happy Acres! This beautiful and well-maintained cabin sits on a knoll overlooking a nice stream with a pleasant waterfall. The surrounding grounds are landscaped with native plants and there are many places to sit and enjoy the surroundings. This property is surrounded by a forest of old growth deciduous trees--it will show spectacular fall color that you can enjoy from your porch.
The master bedroom is on the main floor with a private bathroom. Upstairs are two comfortable bedrooms, one with a queen-size bed and one with a full-size bed, that share a full bathroom. There is additional sleeping on the trundle day bed in the loft area that opens to a queen-size bed.
The wood accents and some of the furnishings and flooring were made from trees that grew on the property!
The property adjoins the Headwaters State Forest. This state forest is part of a project intended to extend from Table Rock in South Carolina through Caeser's Head, Dupont and Gorges State Parks. Lots of room for exploring, biking and hiking. Enjoy wading in the stream or just relaxing in the nearby swing. No need to leave the property--plenty of wildlife and beautiful surroundings to appreciate.
But when you are ready to explore the area, you will find that we are at the center of great things to do! Dupont State Forest with its magnificent waterfalls, horse, biking and hiking trails is just down the road. Brevard is only about 8 miles away with shopping, arts and crafts, and great restaurants! Go the other direction and enjoy the day in Hendersonville, or travel a bit farther to Asheville. Other parks in the vicinity include Pisgah National Forest, Gorges State Park, Caesar's Head, and Headwaters State Recreation Area--all the hiking you want with lots of scenic waterfalls and overlooks. Access the Blue Ridge Parkway and take in some spectacular scenery. Be sure to go and see the Pretty Place Chapel while you are here, or walk to the top of Sassafras Mountain, the highest peak in South Carolina; both only a short drive from the house. Happy Acres is just a few miles from the East Fork of the French Broad River--known for excellent trout fishing!

    The property has potential but is NOT what the description claims. The outside was very unkept. You could not explore or enjoy the property due to overgrowth and general neglect. If you want land to be able to just relax and walk in this is not for you. Outside furniture was unclean and you could still smell cigarettes. The “no slip pads” on the front porch steps would slide when you walked and cause you to stumble. There was used coffee still in coffee maker and towels still in dryer. The inside was well stocked and house interior seemed overall clean. Wifi worked well.

    The property was clean and well cared for. Hosts communicated well. I appreciated how well-stocked the place was—it seems like they put a lot of thought into items guests might need.Our kids loved playing in the small creek and waterfall off the back porch. It’s also in a beautiful area, with several nice waterfall hikes in nearby DuPont and Pisgah.

    Immersed in nature! Lovely home with wide porch to read, listen to the birds, or wait out the rain. Anywhere you are on the property, there is the ever present babble of the creek. The home is fully stocked, and I mean fully stocked. The beds were comfortable, kitchen was well laid out and stocked with all you need. Incredibly convenient to Brevard, DuPont, and even the Parkway. We are already planning another trip to this lovely spot.

    We had a great time at this lovely home. The sound of the creek/waterfall from the porch is amazing, although the path down to the creek was steep and very slippery (it did recently rain) we were able to take the driveway down instead but had to walk through deep mud to get to the water fall, so be careful with littles, the water is COLD! The house was clean, well stocked, cozy, and the beds were comfortable! The only negative thing I could say is that the outside could use a good clean up but I know the area was affected from hurricane Helene so it is understandable. The property was still absolutely beautiful and peaceful. I would definitely come back, Brevard is a cute little town! Caesars overlook which was about 20 minutes away is beautiful! Keep an eye out for the white eastern grey squirrels, we saw two and there were lots of deer in the neighborhood at dusk. Thanks for a great weekend!

    We had a wonderful and relaxing Thanksgiving at this beautiful home! The setting was quiet and private, and the sound of the stream and waterfall was perfect for porch-sitting. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a delicious Thanksgiving meal. We absolutely would stay again!

    The place is comfortable and very private. The completely wooded property is beautiful. The kitchen is nicely set up with anything you could want for fixing meals. There's lots of seating for larger families. Bedrooms are separated for privacy. It has all of the comforts of home.

    This property is secluded and quiet. It is a mountain property surrounded by trees. The house is a great place to gather with family because it has an open living space. The bedrooms, however, are all quite private. The 2.5 bathrooms are clean and well placed. We turned the dining room into a game room and we really enjoyed the space. The porches offer fantastic views and a lot more space. We also enjoyed the firepit and fire wood. The house is only ten miles from Brevard, but it feels isolated. We enjoyed the location. It was close to many beautiful parks.The driveway is long and hilly. Our van handled it fine, but a low profile vehicle like a Chrysler 300 ot Tesla might struggle. Also, this property is not really setup for anyone with mobility issues. It is hilly and has many steps.This property gifted us a week of peace and relaxation. What a gift.

    This was our second long weekend at this totally private home in the woods. The home is well cared for and has all of the comforts of home. The kitchen has everything you would need to fix meals or you can eat at a variety of restaurants in Brevard about 10 miles away. There are lots of trails and waterfalls within a 15-30 minute drive. The owner is great with communication. We couldn't be more pleased with our experience and will definitely be back.

    We loved this property! It was completely surrounded by lush greenery and a canopy of trees. It was completely private with a winding driveway through the woods to get to the home. The covered front and back porches were perfect for relaxing and enjoying nature. The home was very clean and had all of the comforts of home. The owner has taken great care to provide everything you could possibly need, especially in the kitchen. He was easy to communicate with as well. Two evenings in a row we saw a momma deer and her fawn playing in the stream! We didn't want to leave. Also, it was less than 3 miles of a Dollar General so you can easily get forgotten items or food. The drive to Brevard is an easy 10 miles. About 5 miles, Cedar Mtn Outpost is a nice place that makes fresh pizza, provides a huge selection of craft beers and snacks, with great indoor and outdoor seating.Ray's place was centeally located to many beautiful mountain trails and waterfalls.

    Property was clean and comfortable. Easily accessible to Dupont(Hooker Falls/Triple Falls)and Brevard, about a 20 minute drive to either one. We were thankful to have a place we could also bring our dog. Our boys loved exploring the water feature on the property. We wish we would have booked another night!

    The house was plenty big enough for our group of 4 adults and 3 children. The kids loved playing in the creek below and exploring around the property! The adults loved sitting on the back porch and listening to the sound of the small waterfall. The location was excellent for visiting waterfalls and swimming holes. We came back each day and cooked dinner (the kitchen was fully stocked with pans and utensils!) and made a fire in the fire pit! We made many great memories for our family at this house. The Owner was a great communicator.
