1 night at The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

Magical Farm setting. My kids absolutely loved the cabin and all the farm animals. The owners are lovely humans. This was a memorable break from the suburbs. My kids fell in love with their cat named Garr.

1 night at The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

My stay was short, as I arrived after 6pm in the rain and left by 9am. Everything seemed fine. I would have enjoyed staying a bit longer in the morning to enjoy the many birds around my site. (I heard an owl just outside at night!)I also would have loved to have roamed the farm a bit to check out the animals and whatever else was there.

had a lovely time being out in the country for the night! Spot was beautiful and private and the hosts were super respectful and kind. great time🤘

Weekend Trip to The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

We really enjoyed staying here, but I’m very grateful we brought along our tent because the cabin was infested with bugs which made it inhabitable. But everything else was perfect! We loved the outdoor shower and private access to the creek for launching our kayaks. There was a little more noise and light pollution than we cared for (could hear vehicles from highway 24/7) and of course the donkey and roosters but that was expected, and comical! The property is beautiful and it was a great weekend 🩷

Weekend Trip to Secluded Mitchel River Camping

Wonderful place. Tanner is a great communicator, place is easy to find but be prepared to lose cell signal near it.

Loved the little cabin. We were skeptical about the shower situation but it ended up being great. The view from the cabin was beautiful and we were close by a lot of pretty hikes.

1 night at Secluded Mitchel River Camping

It was a great site! Stars were very visible and the sound of the creek in the back was nice.

1 night at Secluded Mitchel River Camping

This was a nice site and I loved it here it was right off the road but it was still private and it was perfect having river right there and there was no one there when I stayed which made it even better. There’s a cute cabin if u keep on going past the campsite which was really more private and next time I’m I area I’ll get the cabin instead. There’s only issues I had were the directions to the place . There’s no signal once you get off the main rd so maps kept rerouting me and there’s no directions directly on hip camp so I had to turn around several time I finally found it . Either way great spot to stay

What a fantastic spot. Off the grid and amazing owners!

3 nights at The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

The little cabin was so cute! The bed was comfy and there was enough room in the loft for our 9 YO to sleep at the foot of the bed on their sleeping pad. The electric heater was helpful during the cold night. The wood stove was fun to cook on. The outhouse was perfect - it was the first time we had used a compost toilet. The swing and all the hammocks were fun. The outdoor fire pit was perfect for cooking and s'mores. The open space was perfect for frisbee. All the little touches were so thoughtful. The signage was great! And the night lights were perfectly timed. We loved walking to Abbot's Creek. We loved seeing the animals. It was all so lovely.

Weekend Trip to The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

Such an awesome, cozy cabin with a great morning view. Brought 10 people, purchased the tent site and the cabin. They allowed us to tent in front of the cabin. They provided us fire wood and we had a great time. Lovely, friendly host. Will come again!

1 night at The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

Very kind people. They've got me wanting to install an outside shower on my own property one day, it was very nice even on a night of 61 degrees. The area with platforms is very private, dimly lit with assorted solar lights, and very quiet. Close drive to grocery stores and places to eat. I'll definitely stay again if I'm ever passing through again.

Weekend Trip to The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

We had such a lovely time at the cabin. It rained torrentially and the wind was crazy. All Saturday night I kept waking up, listening to the rain, and sleeping again. The loft was so warm and cozy- I was just as happy as I could possibly be. We also had a great time checking out the farm animals and exploring Lexington. And of course Darrel and Natalie were very generous hosts! I want to come back again soon with my daughter and dog.

Weekend Trip to The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

The land itself is beautiful in the part of the state that it’s in. The standout is the attention to detail thats present. From the details inside the cabin from homemade coffee, all the supplies, wood for outside, wood for the inside stove. All the solar lights to help guide you around, supplies, etc. Outdoor toilet…..5 out of 5, just saying. They even offer services for ice and others if you’ve forgotten. These folks are the real deal, legit either as a single, couple or with kiddos! There is access to the water by kayak easy but creek fishing was a challenge. That would be my only suggestion, highly recommend this property.

Weekend Trip to The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

Loved staying in a cabin that humbled me to the elements around me! It’s adorable and cozy, Natalie and Darrell have done a fantastic job building their homestead and I feel gracious to take part in it. Don’t miss out on this hidden oasis, but if you book in the coldest part of the year like I did, this couple will definitely check on you to make sure you don’t freeze! Thank you Dancing Pig

1 night at The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

This was a great space for a cute overnight stay! I sadly was ill for most of our time there but my partner said the land was beautiful and the hosts were very nice! Would love to return sometime to get the full experience.

1 night at The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

This was a great spot on some beautiful farm land in Lexington NC. We stayed at the tent camping spot and it has everything needed for a comfortable stay. The directions were clear and the spot was easy to find. And the hosts were a a super cool couple that we enjoyed getting to meet. I highly recommend this spot! its secluded and much more private than a campground.

A small homestead on the bank of Abbotts Creek near where it feeds into High Rock Lake. Peace and solitude , but close to the amenities of town. Less than a five minute drive to the grocery store, and less than a fifteen minute drive to uptown Lexington. Public access for kayaks is less than half a mile away. And the view is unbelievable! We have a corn hole board and bags now available for use, as well as a few other yard games. Please let us know if you are interested in using them. The edible landscape is available for you to enjoy. A list of current available items is posted in our greenhouse, as well as baskets for picking and foraging.
