We had a fun morning with the kiddos! Even though we live on a homestead it was awesome to go and check out the alpacas and see the great set up they have there. Definitely has us thinking about adding an alpaca to the mix. Thank you for the tour!

This is a late intro today after a 12 hr shift! This is Iris. She is sweet Zinnia’s baby from last year. She is a wild one…kind of. She is a little more hands off than some of our other goats but let’s us sneak in some rubs from time to time. She is very curious yet cautious. We love her majestic look with her solid black coat and blue eyes. She is almost old enough to have some babies of her own. Such a pretty girl!

Say hello to my little friend….Zinnia! Zinnia is one of our sweetest and most talkative does. She is also a very fierce mama. She has two baby does at her side right now. A little carbon copy of herself and a buckskin. She is definitely one that will come to the fence for pets.

22/08/2023

Another day another introduction! This is Willow(nigerian dwarf doe). She is one of our golden sisters. She just had 4 kids not so long ago and is truly the best mom! Usually in our experience if a mom has 3 or more babies you end up having to help feed them but not Willow. She has been amazing! Once her babies are weaned we hope to milk her as well. She is a pretty independent gal and pets are highly motivated by mood lol. Say hi to Willow and her babies if you stay with us soon!

Coming at ya with another intro! Meant to do these daily but well life. Gotta keep you guys guessing. So this is Jack-Jack. He is our only wether (castrated male). He is probably the friendliest and most chill goat we have. He, like so many others, is very food and pet motivated. Jack-Jack was our first Nigerian dwarf goat and he made us fall in love with the breed. They are a great size for kids to be around and very manageable. Hopefully he will be one of our pioneers if we get a goat “walk and talk” arranged.

Good morning friends! We wanted to start a little series of introductions since we have had so many questions recently about the animals here at . Our first spotlight is Chestnut our 7 year old Nubian doe goat. She is technically our OG goat here on the homestead. We had her as a baby but ended up selling her to another amazing family when she was a little over a year old. We had the opportunity to get her back last year and we were so excited to bring her back where it all started. Her personality is that of a wise older woman. She is experienced and knows what she wants. Petting is always on her terms so don’t get offended if she gives you the stink eye 😜. She is a wonderful mother and we are planning a breeding for her soon to hopefully get to experience her raising another baby. We will keep this going as we have many more introductions to cover here on the farm!

and will soon come together at the completion of our new fence! We have wanted for a while to be able to let our guests see into our world on a small homestead. Our Nigerian dwarf goats will now have an additional 3 acres of pasture to roam and interact with guests! Of course a donkey is also in the future forecast. We hope this blending brings even more joy to our guests! We hope to have the fence finished this week and will slowly introduce the herd over the next few weeks. Have a wonderful week!

It’s a rainy day here but we do have good news...our hens are giving us eggs again after their winter molt (losing and regrowing feathers)! So if you are staying with us look for some of these beauties on the counter when you arrive. These are fresh eggs and don’t have to be refrigerated.

23/01/2021

Look at this new menu! Gonna have to try this out. Bearwaters is right on the Pigeon River and a great atmosphere.

We started transitioning in June from having our previous cottage to listing Bohicket Ridge. During that time we have been so busy making sure the space was just right for our guests and we hadn’t had the opportunity to really appreciate our new space. Today we parked the car halfway up the road (on our way to clean) and just started walking and exploring our new spot. We walked to the very top of our property line and looked out. All we can say is that we were humbled and amazed at the beauty of where we live! We are blessed and only hope to make this space more and more like a haven for our guests in the years to come.

This was our last review of the year and it sent us into 2021 feeling so thankful and blessed to have our mountain retreat in our back door and that it is bringing others joy and relaxation! Our guests this year have been so great and shared such kind words and beautiful photos with us. Thank you to all of our guests from 2020. We hope you get the chance to visit us again! # travelnc #2021

We want to wish all our family, friends, and guests a Happy New Year! This year has been tough but it has been full of lessons for us. We sank our teeth into what was important and we hustled harder than ever to try and get ahead. Our family is our biggest motivation and we are happy to be going into the next year knowing that this year made us tougher and pushed our limits. Bohicket Ridge has been running hard since June flaunting it’s views and allowing those who visit to rest their weary souls. We plan to keep pushing and making Bohicket Ridge the retreat it deserves to be. Blessings to all! # travelnc

Got this awesome new sign to help guide our guests to the cabin(gotta install it this week). If you are a past guest do you think this will help guests to make the left turn here and go towards the cabin? We still have a few guests who go up our neighbors driveway trying to find us😬! Comment below to help us out.
