🐑 Ellijay Sheep farmhouse experience! Farm stay, explore, feed the animals

A TRUE Farm experience! Come stay on our active sheep farm in the Blue Ridge mountains. If you are looking for a unique stay, how about sleeping with the sheep? Our three king bedroom two bath house is perched on top of the farm’s hill overlooking our sheep farm! Our small grape vineyard, hundred+ head of sheep, egg laying hens, ducks, turkeys, and more. Bring the family for a hands-on farm experience and tour with your stay. Only 4 miles from downtown Ellijay and 6 miles from BlueRidge. Where hiking, wineries, apple orchards, and train rides await. Be prepared to make a new animal friend. Our friendly sheep will await you right near our farm store, which is only steps away from the house. Look out the master bedroom and count the sheep before you go to sleep. Wake up to the rooster crowing as you make your way to the on-site farm store for fresh eggs, pastries, and dairy. All just a few steps from your door. In the fall, your stay will include our annual corn maze, and tractor ride.
Pumpkins grow next to the three creeks that run through the farm as well as sunflowers and wildflowers! Dogs welcome too!
This home is located on our 14 acre farm where you will be immersed in adorable lambs, grapevines, babbling creeks and long valley views. All with the stunning Blue ridge mountains as your backdrop.
Our family will be present daily, as we work the 100 head of sheep 🐑 out your back door and tend the fields. This includes our 8 acre corn maze we put on in the fall season. You will be welcomed to visit with the animals and tour the grounds where we have three converging creeks, grape vineyard, rustic barns, and modern farm facilities. (Good boots are a must.) you will meet Tom the turkey and his family, fluffy rams and baby lambs!
We also operate a local market onsite where you will be able to pop in for fresh baked treats and unbelievable meats along with other curated local goods. Our store is open daily from 10am - 5pm.

About the host

Hosted by Lee

Host profile image
🐑 Our family is originally from Florida and Alaska. We moved up full-time in 2021 and live just 14 miles from the farm.

Why they chose this property

In 2022 we purchased the property and began renovating the grounds and farmhouse. Some structures date back to 1960 and then up to our farmhouse which was built in 1992. Lots of home renovations were just completed in 2024.

What makes this property unique

🐑 This stay is a real experience to be had. sheep and lambs are such gentle and friendly creatures. You will have the unique opportunity to see the workings of our active family farm, from the birthing of new lambs to collecting eggs for the store. We are on-site every day with the animals.
