Very quaint farmhouse, very clean with all the amenities. Just keep in mind this is an authentic 1920s home. Lower ceilings, claw foot tub/shower. It was perfect for my sister and I. Very close to DuPont hiking, Hendersonville and Flat Rock. We loved eating and playing games at the table on the front porch. Lovely view of the horses. I would highly recommend staying here and we hope to go back.

Time travel with conveniences!

Shoal Creek Cottage is like stepping back in time, but with modern conveniences. The cottage is comfortable, light and airy and beautifully decorated. We loved watching the horses from the front porch. Very convenient to DuPont and Holmes State Park and a scenic drive to town. Thank you for a lovely stay.

This cute and quaint farmhouse cottage was exactly as described and the perfect home base for our family’s hiking and waterfall exploration getaway. We visited over Labor Day weekend and enjoyed exploring the local area, including Pigsah National Forest, DuPont State Forest, Hendersonville Apple Festival, and Brevard shops and restaurants. The cottage is wonderfully situated to take advantage of the areas natural surroundings. A short 5 minute drive to a five waterfall hike in DuPont forest, 30-40 minutes to Pigsah and the Blue Ridge Parkway. And 20 minutes each to Hendersonville and Brevard. The owners were very accommodating, very responsive and helpful, and showed pride in keeping the cottage clean and comfortable. We would definitely return if we venture back to the area.
