Welcome to the Poet's House on a 100-acre farm! This luxury one-floor house is the perfect romantic retreat for a couple, convenient stay with all the essentials for a family getaway, and a great option for business travelers who want both privacy and convenient access to Winston-Salem. This property has 100 5-star guest reviews through another site.
This luxury one-level home was designed with simplicity, solitude, and peacefulness in mind. The Poet's House features stone floors, mahogany doors, modern appliances, a combination of antiques and mid-century modern decor, as well as original art pieces.
The primary bedroom has a king bed, sitting area and sun porch overlooking the woods. The en suite primary bathroom has a walk-in shower, a soaking tub, as well as a walk-in closet.
The second bedroom at the front of the house has a queen bed and two large windows overlooking the front courtyard. The third bedroom has a double bed and windows that overlook the fruit orchard. The second full bathroom has a walk-in shower.
The open living room has comfortable seating and a modern soapstone wood stove for chilly mornings or romantic evenings. The open dining room can seat six at the long dining table (which is handmade from black walnut trees on the property!), and there is also seating for four at the kitchen island. Harman Kardon bluetooth speaker is ready to set the mood and play your favorite tunes.
Each bedroom has two bathrobes to enhance your visit's spa-like feel and cut down on what you need to pack. After each guest, we strip each bed completely and replace everything - mattress cover, sheets, blankets and coverlet are all freshly cleaned.
The kitchen is stocked with everything you need - Keurig coffee maker, pots/pans, dishes and utensils, stove/oven, microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator. Custom, modern cabinets and drawers outfit the rest of the kitchen area.
A beautiful deck off the side of the house offers an opportunity to watch birds and wildlife, sit and enjoy your morning cup of coffee, or enjoy outdoor dining overlooking the woods. At the back of the house is a second deck (aka, "the rocking porch") where you can sit with another view of the woods and a sweet little log cabin that sits behind the house. (We're still working on a plan for the log cabin.) The third small deck off the back of the house has two lounge chairs and a brick patio with gas grill. The back yard is fenced in.
Naturally, the Poet's House has an office/library that is perfect for inspiring your creative side, working on your latest novel, or just tapping away on your computer. Guests are welcome to enjoy the library's books and games during their stay.
Guests have access to one side of a two-car garage. Other cars may park outside in the driveway. There is a single exterior security camera on the house that monitors the driveway entrance.
Guests are free to walk the 100-acre property, which includes two ponds on the lower half of the property which are suitable for fishing (BYO poles), to use the large fire pit in the middle of the upper pasture, or to visit with our goats, chickens and duck.
This house is wheelchair accessible - guests can enter the house through the garage without ever having to step up or down. Showers are accessible and both toilets have grab bars. The sinks and kitchen counters, however, are not wheelchair accessible.
We do allow pets, but please message the host before booking with the type of pets and their size, as well as to review the rules for pets staying in our rentals. Please do not request to book if you cannot keep your pets off the furniture. There is a $50 per pet cleaning fee.
Please note: ALL OF OUR PROPERTIES ARE SMOKE-FREE, INSIDE AND OUTSIDE.
Guest access
Entire house is for guests. Half of the two-car garage is for guests.
Other things to note
Please note: driveway is gravel.
Located in Lewisville, this vacation home is in a rural area. West Bend Vineyards and Medaloni Cellars and Vinyards are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those looking for area attractions can visit Adventure Landing Winston-Salem and Yadkin Cultural Arts Center. Traveling with kids? Consider Brock Performing Arts Center, or check out an event or a game at Taylor Tennis Center.
