About the host
Hosted by Roz Sheppard
I am a wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother born and raised in the panhandle of Florida who loves the western NC mountains.
This property was originally purchased by my husband's paternal grandmother in 1964 when it was known as the Honeymoon Cottage. My husband inherited it from his parents in 1998 and we built an addition to the cottage in 2000. We live in that addition adjacent to the cottage.
When the bears visited, we gave a new name to the cottage.
Why they chose this property
This property is secluded, surrounded by trees. It is a great neighborhood for walking and the conference grounds supply some seasonal opportunities.
