Why the Owner Chose Pinehurst
Dave and I were lucky enough to find and purchase Arundel Cottage as our first home. Over the years we renovated, landscaped and restored it’s "Old Town" charm. In 1996 we built a new house on the adjacent lot where we now reside. We then furnished and equipped Arundel as an affordable vacation rental home for travelers wanting to experience the sandhills region of Central North Carolina. We have since managed and maintained the home ourselves with our quests comfort and convenience in mind. We have thoroughly enjoyed sharing our unique cottage over the years. We have made many new friends. Some of our guests find they don't want to leave and continue to return year after year.
The Unique Benefits at this Vintage Home - Circa 1920
Pinehurst has so much to offer both permanent residents and guests. Of course golf is one of the main attractions but there is so much more! My husband and I are avid kayakers and hikers and living in central NC allows us the opportunity to do both year round. We enjoy paddling the many rivers and lakes; hiking in the mountains or even walking several miles through the local greenway trail system which we have access to right from our front door. Of course there are arts and crafts festivals, antiquing, equestrian events, horticultural gardens, unique shopping and dining, etc. There is plenty to do for everyone!

David and I moved to Pinehurst in 1983. We liked it so much that we decided to make it our permanent home. We raised our family here and even after being empty nesters we continue to enjoy the charm and friendliness of our unique community! We wouldn't live anywhere else!
