The Dancing Pig On Abbotts Creek

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.

The best spot to enjoy your morning coffee

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

Red Hound Farms

A true working farm experience, in the fall season we are open with a petting zoo, hay rides etc. Also have a wedding venu

Cherry Bounce Adventure Company

Located on family land granted by King Charles in 1685 we have worked hard to restore and refurbish in a sustainable way, using the trees and supplies from the land that they sit on.  Hand crafting doors and furniture the way the family did it 140 plus years ago. The history of this place is deep, even the nails for the cabin and farm house that is now the clubhouse were hand crafted by my great grandfather in his blacksmith shop, along with the wagon wheels, horse shoes, misc farm utensils etc... there was no running out to Lowes to pick up what was needed, it was made in the blacksmith shop.

We love riding ATV's and SXS's on the trails on the mountains that I grew up on with my 3 brothers, we hope the people who visit and experience the mountains feel about them the way we do, we love em.  We like to give riding tours and talking about the mountain and its challenges.

We named the park from the famous product that was created here during prohibition, Cherry Bounce Moonshine.  You can visit some of the original still sites on the mountain, of course they are not operational today.

About the adventure co side,

We are an adrenaline pumping ATV and SXS park with 25+ miles of mountainous trails at four skill levels; Green (Easy), Blue (Challenging), Black Diamond (Very Difficult) and Double Black Diamond (Most Difficult).  

You can bring your own ATV or SXS or rent one of ours.  We have cabins & camp sites that are accessed by ATV or SXS on the mountains as well as hiking or biking. We do not allow jeeps, trucks or dirt bike motorcycles on the mountain, just ATV's and SXS vehicles.
