Wooded, natural setting, creek with magnificent boulders, several vignette sitting areas. Feels like a secluded mountain getaway location, but is actually located right in the middle of Chapel Hill!

Holly Hill Daylily Farm is located in Moncure, not far from Pittsboro. Some PAINT members have painted there before and know what a lovely scene it is with the field of lilies in bloom. Jim Massey, the owner, enjoys folk art so that abounds at the farm as well. Jim says that June 22 should be about a peak time for the daylilies.
Note: I don't remember there being a bathroom on the premises.
