This was a great little place to stay while visiting several areas of the NC mountains. We visited Marion, Asheville, Lake James, Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, Linville Caverns and several other places while there. The beds were super comfortable and we enjoyed the lunar eclipse from the fire pit area on Thursday night. I will definitely keep this on my favorites list for anytime I need to visit this area again.

Loved this house!

We had an excellent stay at Cecilia's! Home had everything we needed! From the comfortable bed, pool table, and super cute covered outside patio. Absolutely loved the outdoor seating area with the firepit! Would definitely recommend staying here for checking out Marion, Old Fort, Morganton and the surrounding areas!

Our stay!

Our son’s baseball tournament brought us to Marion and we couldn’t be happier with our time at the cozy cottage. From the pool table, to the darts, to the snack basket my kids were so happy. I appreciated decor, extra space and attention to detail. Definitely recommend!
