About this trip

Experience an Old Fashioned Christmas at Mike's Farm in Beulaville.  An hour and a half drive, takes us to a successful Agri-Tourism family run farm.  Mike's Farm hosts events throughout the year with the Festival of Lights Hayride being the most popular.  This event is so popular that it took me a day and a half when they put tickets on sale to get through to the ticket office!   The evening features a 30-minute hayride accompanied by Christmas music, miles of lighted Holiday scenes and a live nativity.  We begin the the evening with time to browse the gift shop known to have some of the most unique Christmas gifts and largest collection of "Yankee Candles" in the region.  Next up, is a delicious home-cooked meal served family style.  The mac and cheese is a guest favorite.  Some claim it to be the best ever made with a secret ingredient. *Please note that alcohol is not served at Mike's Farm but you are welcome to bring along a cocktail, beer or wine on the bus for the trip there or back.  End the night with the hayride and then travel back to Compass Pointe with memories of an old fashioned festive evening "dancing in your head."

I love to travel so in my partially retired life I decided to adapt my passion for travel along with 25 years of experience in Travel & Tourism to create Trips by Patty. I received a BA in American History from UNC-Chapel Hill. Not knowing what I was going to do with that degree, I started working as a desk clerk at a hotel in Raleigh. I enjoyed the hotel business and the career path began. Hotel operations and sales, Convention Center operations and marketing, destination marketing with a Convention Visitors Bureau and even a stint as a tour guide. What happened to the history degree? Well, many times when I am escorting my trips I share the history of the destinations we visit. It's a great feeling to take your career skills and adapt them to your own small business. I love what I do and hope you'll join me on a trip one day!

This trip was flawless from beginning to end. Patty was very thorough in planning this delightful trip to Greenville SC. I can’t wait to travel with Trips By Patty again on future getaways! Thanks very much Patty, Kathy & Donnie our amazing bus driver! Sincerely, Maria Kowalski

We had a great time. The bus ride was comfortable, the dinner was good and the show was fun. I made a couple new friends along the way. What an easy way to navigate an evening! Thank you so much.

We had a great time! Patty had very detail down pat and made sure everything was correct. We have been on other trips with her and have consistently enjoyed them all. Greenville was very special from start to finish. Highly recommend.

Great trip! Lovely little city. Winery & museum were highlights. Progressive dinner was a big disappointment: the appetizer was really just chips & dip, the pork chop was cold. Would be best to have substantial but smaller portions for each meal, as we had on the Charleston trip (fabulous food). I know the dates chosen were the only available , but for future trips, avoiding Mondays would be best (more museums open). The trip was just the right amount of time. Looking forward to returning in February for Hamilton!
