4 Season Cottage in the Woods with Trail to Private Lake Usage

Great place to stay for a quick weekend away from Charlotte. We enjoyed the town of Saluda and adventured to Sky Top Orchard to pick apples.

so peaceful and was perfect for a weekend away with my husband!

Off the beaten path a bit. No lake view but it's a short hike away and a canoe awaits. Really enjoyed the peaceful front porch. Suggest you bring what you need for your stay. Saluda is a nice place to walk a bit.

The cabin is tucked away on a mountain side, away from noise, traffic and all aspects of hectic life. There was always plenty of airflow, so it stayed cool wherever you might end up, inside, on the porch around the fire pit or our favorite place, the front porch. We sat out there each night until dark, and were often treated to jack rabbits (or other critters) scurrying down the driveway. The bedrooms had a lot of window space, and it was so nice to listen to rain falling in the forest. The kitchen was awesome, we cooked several of our meals there (if you eat red meat, make sure to make a trip to Thompson's downtown Saluda and pick up some fresh cut steaks, simply out of this world when cooked on the grill on the rock porch).

We were especially happy that pets were allowed here, since we made sure to be around for the 55th annual Coon Dog Day in Saluda, and had brought two of our dogs. They so enjoyed the festivities in town, but I think they enjoyed it more walking around the cabin, encountering scents they hadn't before, and like us, sitting on the front porch.

Beth is a super host, checking in from time to time to make sure we had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable.

This is definitely a place to return to!

The cottage was very well outfitted for all our needs, perfect for our family of four. The bulk of our time (every meal and most evenings) was spent on the stone patio, relaxing and spying wild life. The kids loved splashing in the lake and visiting Saluda for ice cream. We will definitely be coming back!
