The cottage was perfect. I loved sitting on the porch in the rocking chairs. The cottage was exactly as described/pictured and stocked with so many extras. I really appreciated that coffee and creamers were there as well as the pitcher of filtered water in the fridge. The linens also stood out - the quality and also the fact that there were so many additional blankets, throws, and comforters. Also there were feather pillows and a variety of other pillows so it was easy to find one that was just right. There was also a lot of options for unpacking - empty drawers and shelves and lots of room in the closet. And the host was attentive and proactive in making sure I had everything I needed. I appreciated him checking in after a few days just to make sure things were still going well. Perfect location - 2 min from FlatRock Bakery - friendly people and delicious food and next door the Wrinkled Egg shop is a don’t miss.

This place was beautiful! The lake view of the cottage is absolutely serene and the rocking chairs on the porch make for a perfect peaceful morning. The stone wall makes such a cozy space and the whole thing from top to bottom is clean and beautiful! The hosts were very friendly and left local goodies, very responsive to needs as well. We spent thanksgiving here and it was a perfect romantic getaway for us to enjoy a peaceful holiday!

The cottage was clean and cozy warm and comfortable king bed! The hot showers were delightful, and there were two coffee makers, a Keurig and a drip pot, so you have a nice choice!!! The cottage is located just down the road from a breakfast restaurant and a BBQ place. And if you like theater, the cottage is a stones throw from the FlatRock Playhouse. Getting into downtown Hendersonville is also easy. Nice stay for a couple, and at a great price point!!!

We loved our weekend retreat at this charming little cottage. It felt like visiting my grandma. The place just felt so warm and inviting. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch rockers with a view of the pond in the mornings and the fire pit by the water in the evening. We spent most of our days exploring the waterfalls near Brevard and some of the local shops and restaurants. This is a great location and very quiet and relaxing. It’s a diamond in the rough so to speak.
