Janeice LeonardSaw the sign & decided to check it out over the weekend. The staff was very informative on the history of the place & the reason behind the preservation. Beautiful, quiet, and easy to walk to. You could’ve taken a guided tour, but we decided to do a self tour. Loved seeing the animals and the buildings!

Nikki KelleyWe absolutely love this place!! Very quiet. You get to see history up close and personal, not thru a glass case. It was amazing. It's like the family left to go to church and will be returning momentarily. Literally get to walk thru history. The man in the office is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Snacks are cheap! And the cats have such personalities. Highly recommend.

John KpchrHorne Creek Living Historical Farm is a wonderful place to visit. It takes you back in time in a very authentic way. The visitor center is very helpful. The animals were a great experience for a six-year old, it was good for a child to lean about farm animals and farm life in a setting like this. He loved the big peaceful mule, the goats, the sheep, and the chickens especially, not to mention the dogs and cats! Being surrounded by state park land, this farm is very quiet and has an authentic feel of silence among the surrounding woods. It really helps you to imagine what life must have been like here over 100 years ago! Plus, there is a great display of quilts in the friendly visitor center, and there are other events during the year that are worth checking out. We love Horne Creek Farm!

Lisa RoseWe went there on a whim and it was fantastic! The best part is that everything is open for you to explore on your own. Even the house! We spent hours there and learned so much. All of my kiddos ages 2-18 enjoyed themselves.

Randall McCorquodaleAs I was leaving Pilot Mountain, I saw a sign for the Horne Creek Historical Farm. Curiosity got the better of me, so I went by to see what this was all about. Turned out to be exactly what the sign said. It was an old Homeplace with Barnes, Gardens, Sheep, Goats and Horses. I am glad I went by and will go again.
