UNWIND, REST and RENEW

ABOUT THE FARM HOUSE

The Farm House at Mill Creek is located on a family farm. It is a newly renovated 120-year-old home place and nestled in Eastern NC just 15 minutes from New Bern. You will be amazed at how this home wraps you up like a blanket when you enter the space. If you are ready to unplug for much-needed rest, this listing is for you. You have access to 2 porches while you enjoy reading a book or drinking your morning coffee. For anyone who loves cooking, you will enjoy dining at the large farm table.

 

The Space
We are so glad you have chosen to spend time here. Please relax, unplug and enjoy the serenity of the farm. Please note this is a working farm complete with crops, animals, and equipment. You may see tractors, mowers and animals grazing. Please do not feed any of the animals.

For your safety, please do not venture into neighboring yards, pastures or fields. However, please enjoy a stroll along the paved road. If you are visiting during hunting season, you may see increased deer traffic. You may also see hunting dogs and hear gunshots. Please do not be alarmed.

Across the street from the Farmhouse is the Croatan National Forest which includes wildlife preserves, so you may see bears, foxes, rabbits, turkeys, raccoons, opossums and an occasional snake here at Mill Creek.

Our guess is, by booking the Farmhouse at Mill Creek, your desire is to unwind and unplug. To enhance your experience, you will notice there is no TV or Wifi. This will allow you to
fully enjoy the farm.

Testimonials

Nancy, Darlington, SC

October 2019, I rented The Farmhouse at Mill Creek, Pollocksville, N.C. My experience was delightful. Five of my family enjoyed the accommodations. We found the sleeping arrangements excellent. We could have easily accommodated a couple more heads in beds. We found the beds extremely comfortable. The sheets on the beds were better than hotel quality and the kitchen well equipped.

The accommodations are simple and extremely comfortable. A front porch where one can enjoy coffee in the morning with little to no traffic, and the accompaniment of owls, birds, and the occasional stray deer family moving about. At night one can actually see the stars in the sky as there is no ambient light from the streetlight, stoplights, etc.

It may be the best sleep one has ever had due to the quiet bucolic setting.

For those that have business or family in the very close large towns of New Bern, Jacksonville, Havelock, or Greenville, N.C. this is an excellent choice for hotel alternative.

If you are looking for a quiet "getaway", this is definitely the place! This quaint 100 year old farm house is perfectly restored and appointed with a warm, country feel. Nestled in a country setting only short drive  to the scenic riverfront town of New Bern! Enjoy.

I rented this property for a special luncheon for a dear friend. Our event was attended by a few that knew the property since the 1940's and they were thrilled with the renovations that update this quaint place. The shiplap and bead board inside are reminiscent of the era of construction. The clapboard exterior isn't original but is original to the 1900's structure. Note that the ceramic sink in the kitchen IS the original. All the plates, flatware, glasses and serving pieces I needed were already in the kitchen for us to use for the event. Dining at the farmhouse table was just perfect with seating for 8. 

I would highly recommend this venue to use for a special celebration.

"Visiting a place which brings so many fond memories of a time gone is a must.  From the moment I stepped on to the front porch, I felt like an innocent child getting ready to explore paradise. Every room, the back porch and standing in the kitchen beckons you to come, join me for a cup of tea. A vacation spot, a weekend getaway, a retreat palace  that is peaceful, relaxing and refreshing. I just love the front porch, a place where conversations happen naturally."
