The Horse Shoe Farm is also home to Stable Spa—a unique and tranquil sanctuary that is located in a stylish converted barn. The spa menu is inspired by the elements of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and features immersive healing treatments aimed at nourishing and healing the mind, body, and spirit. Guests are welcome to drop in for a day or for a weekend, and will be taken care of by skillful and caring licensed therapists and practitioners.

We chatted with Jordan Turchin, owner of The Horse Shoe Farm, who shared treatments to try, insider tips, favorite amenities, and more:

Why You’ll Love It: The Stable Spa is a truly unique experience. Guests love the comfortable, down-to-earth setting of the elegantly renovated equestrian stable that feels seamless with its natural surroundings. 

Stable Spa is located in a converted barn.

Key Features: Relax with a cup of tea before your treatment while gazing upon the Blue Ridge Mountains. Ease tired feet in a foot soak with herbs sourced directly from the farm. Enjoy freshly made organic juice from the juice bar and be nourished with our healthy snack options. Feeling energetic? We offer SUP (stand up paddle board), yoga classes, and paddle-boarding on the pond. Or for more adventure, paddle on the French Broad River.

Snacks Served: Infused water, fresh-squeezed juice, and hot tea. 

Insider Tip: Allow your relaxation to deepen while you stroll the grounds, taking in the fresh air and beautiful scenery.

Bonus: The biggest bonus/surprise is how the element of the outdoors plays with the indoors. Fresh air, light, and the songs of birds fill the entire spa—letting you engage with nature as you unwind. 

Unique Treatment: Sensibility (light to medium pressure). Indulge all the senses and experience inner peace with a coordinated audio and visual treatment that balances the brain. Includes aromatherapy, scalp, hand, and foot massage, an LED light eye-mask, and audio journey. Please allow 15 minutes prior for an included foot soak. Total treatment time is 60 minutes.

Splurge Treatment: Synchronicity (four hands, customized pressure). Experience the deeply sublime harmony of four hands uplifting, nurturing, and balancing the body and soul, with two therapists blending techniques customized just for you. Please allow 15 minutes prior for an included foot soak. Total treatment time is 105 minutes.

Insider’s Favorite: I usually go for the Stability (medium to firm pressure). De-stress and renew with our most popular therapeutic massage—the perfect combination of relaxation and targeted work to address your specific needs.
