 Historic Charm Meets Modern Comfort

at Hawkins House

Unplug and unwind with a curated stay in the North Carolina countryside.

THE RICHNESS OF THE SIMPLE LIFE

We believe in sustainable methods, organic materials, local food, and genuine connection with our visitors.

Among the 21 acres of our bona fide forestry farm, you’ll find a connection to nature, relaxation, and slow living. As both a farmhouse and an expansive property, Hawkins is able to scale from a small weekend getaway to an event space for community classes, local business partnerships, and weddings.

“We stayed several days for my daughter’s graduation from Elon. Hosts are great and very responsive. The most relaxing location you can imagine. House is so clean and comfy. Beverage fridge is a huge plus. Cannot say enough good things about this place.”

“This was one of the most tranquil settings! The home was stunning and all the “perks” really just blew us away! We will definitely be back!!”

Planning Your Visit

  • The Property

    Get to know where you’ll be staying by browsing the photos in our gallery. We’re on a 21-acre piece of land with walking trails and plenty of ways to unwind, including two serene porches with rocking chairs and a bench swing.

  • Foodies Welcome

    While we have a full-sized kitchen, a quick drive brings you to excellent food and drink, with a spot for every type of craving. Plan on exploring the best of Hillsborough and the surrounding area during your stay.

  • Outdoor Adventures

    Whether you’re an experienced hiker or casual explorer, carve out some time to experience the natural beauty of Orange County.

“Susan and Mike are incredible hosts—actually they are the best Airbnb hosts I have encountered (and I have a number of rentals all over the country to compare).”

“This is our third annual stay, and it just keeps getting better. Every detail is perfectly appointed and the home and grounds are gorgeous. Perfect setting for a girls’ weekend for my birthday.”
