The Enchanted Escape feels a little like discovering a place someone forgot to tell everyone else about. Tucked on a private one-acre lot just steps from the Village of Pinehurst, three distinct residences surround a backyard designed around gathering, wandering, and slowing down a little. Mornings with coffee in rocking chairs. Pool afternoons that somehow stretch longer than expected. A putting green that quietly turns competitive. Reclaimed treasures, collected details, and spaces that keep making people say, "Wait...come look at this."
💫 The Highlights — Why Guests Love It
Southern charm outside. A little wonder around every corner inside.
Whether you're gathering multiple generations, planning a golf weekend, celebrating a milestone, bringing couples together, gathering lifelong friends, or simply wanting a place where everyone can stay connected without feeling crowded, Enchanted Escape was designed so everyone naturally finds space to be together and room to retreat when they want it.

🏠 Inside
Enchanted Escape has a way of unfolding slowly.
You notice something, then something else, then another detail you didn't catch the first time.
Reclaimed church doors. Salvaged stained glass. Stone, wood, vintage textures, and collected details that somehow feel like they've always belonged there.
Each residence has its own personality, but they all work together in the same way: gather when you want to, disappear for a little while when you don't.
Someone's making coffee in the main house. Someone else has already claimed a rocking chair on the porch. Somebody quietly disappears to the screened porch with a book and unintentionally stays there for an hour.
It feels connected without ever feeling crowded.

One of the things guests love most about Enchanted Escape is that everyone naturally finds their own rhythm.
Grandparents can retreat to a cottage. Couples can have their own space. Early risers and night owls can coexist peacefully.
Then somehow everyone still ends up back together by the pool, around the fire pit, or on the screened porch.
🌿 Outside
The backyard is really the heartbeat of Enchanted Escape.
Summer afternoons drift toward the pool. Someone starts practicing on the putting green and suddenly everyone joins in. Someone gets the grill going. Somebody starts another putting challenge. Someone says they're only going back into the pool for five minutes.
As evening rolls around, string lights begin glowing across the yard, the hot tub comes online, someone lights the fire pit, and people slowly start finding their way back together.
The pool itself tends to surprise people.
At 51 feet long with an 11.5-foot deep end and diving rock, it's larger than many guests expect — and often becomes the place everyone naturally spends more time than they planned.

👋 Meet Beata
Hi — I'm Beata.
Some places have a personality of their own.
Enchanted Escape has always felt that way to me.
I wanted a place where people could gather together without giving up quiet corners and private spaces. A place where little details matter. A place where slowing down happens naturally.
I personally manage every reservation because hospitality matters deeply to me. Small things are automated for speed so nothing waits. Anything important comes directly from me.
Our Pay-It-Forward pantry works the same way this property does: take what you need, leave what you can.
Happy to have you.
— Beata
