Acts In Motion Sacred Ranch

This is a running 7 acre Christian micro-farm/ranch in York, South Carolina, 45-60 minutes S. from Charlotte NC. We do things differently here than what you may expect at typical religious organizations. Our values are encompassed by bringing Christ into every day reality where His love shines 24/7. This is a sacred space where community converges with the beauty of creation. So, first and foremost, it is dedicated for people who are seeking refreshing, harmony, and peace with the Creator in a real, "down-to-earth" way. Come experience the culture of ranch life, times of relaxation around the camp fire, rustic meals, and having fun exploring the Carolinas! We are confident that you will not only enjoy the amazing scenery for camping, you will be encouraged by the warm smiles and hospitality of the staff here to serve you. We are looking forward to your visit soon. Blessings.Features:A rustic scenery with the classic red barn, chapel, pastures, old growth trees, rolling hills, creek, and meadow. We have chickens, sheep, dogs, cats, and wildlife.Learn more about this land:The property is picturesque with pastures, a classic red barn, a chapel, and organic garden space. You will enjoy a peaceful meandering creek, old growth trees, rolling hills, fields, meadow, and animals... serene and beautiful. This sacred space is a balance between primitive camping, and just a short walk away for modern amenities. There are restrooms, showers, laundry, coffee, and WiFi available at your request in the chapel. 

Relaxing farm Retreat

This is a working farm.  The heart of the farm are our Scottish Highlander cattle! Guest love to sit for hours watching the cattle graze and are amazed at how docile the cattle are. We also raise goats and have horses, donkeys, sheep, chickens and peafowl that you may see roaming around the farm. We love sharing our farm and farm animals with other people. Most animals are in their pasture and guest are welcome to enjoy the animals from outside the fences. 
We think you will love the beauty of the farm as much as we do. We love all animals and we welcome your pets but we ask that they remain on leash to protect the farms animals and to protect your pets.  We have seen coyotes, fox and hawks at times.

Our goal is to provide a genuine secluded camping experience immersed in nature in a mountainous forest with privacy and well spaced out, secluded
camp sites. We also have minimal light pollution, so our skies are beautiful for
viewing the stars. We offer trails through natural wooded habitat with hidden gems of nature.
Wildlife viewing throughout. There are feed locations to increase viewing opportunities.
A creek on the property is lovely
for walking.

Adin`s river cabin

My property consists of a ridge running east to west with the access road running along the south border.  the land slopes up to the ridge for about 300 feet, and then down to the river for about 800 feet.  The south side of the ridge has a small pond close to the road.  The rest is pasture, and an orchard and small vineyard.  The north side of the ridge is old growth timber, and shady and cool.  The two cabins are along the river.  One is perched on a ridge over looking the river and the other is right on the river.  The swimming hole is 30 feet from the lower cabin.  There is room for a couple campsites along the river also.  The south side of the ridge was a cotton farm decades ago, but was covered in timber when I bought it 12 years ago.  The north side has been in timber for the known history of the property.

The tree has a welcoming archway to the river my son pointed out!

Mike's country home and land

Welcome to Creekside FarmCreekside Farm is a place where you can slow down and enjoy things you might not normally notice.We are glad you are Here.We invite you to sit back, take your shoes off, and breathe deeply as you read this – slowly.Creekside is very special place where you, and those important to you can unplug and gently "be" with eachother.My wife Beth and I fell in love with this property because it has a unique way of calling us out of our busy livesand into a meaningful space of connection with our senses, each other and those we care about. We hope youhave the chance to experience this on your visit.In my work as a leadership consultant and executive coach I've had the opportunity to find a few "bestpractices" for a meaningful experience of life. I offer them to you below should you want to try them out duringyour visit. I promise they will impact your time here - and your time when you leave here - tremendously:Being and DoingSometimes it’s just fine to sit down and not do anything.Experience and CaptureSometimes you don’t need to capture an experience, just experience it.Quality and QuantitySometimes quality of life is more satisfying than quantity of life. Maybe less is more.Sensing and ThinkingSometimes thinking is overrated. Sitting still and sensing what is right in front of us can be eye-opening.Silence and NoiseSometimes saying nothing says everything. Turning off the phones and devices and listening to the nature’ssounds can further awaken and resensitize us.Below you will find information about this special place. It includes invitations, requests and details about howthings work here at the farm.We invite you...1. To use your time here to nourish your Self, Spirit and Body. Walk, breathe, smell, touch, see, and taste whatyou desire.2. To put away your phones and devices and be with the people you are here with.3. To remove your shoes when in the home and feel the floor under your feet.4. To be outside whenever you can. There is goodness out there. Go anywhere you want on property, it isbordered by the creek.5. To eat slowly, talk slowly, walk slowly and just hang.
