The Cottage -- Historic Downtown Waynesville

My wife and I had a great time and we loved the Cottage! The owner, Tom, was a great Host and made our stay as comfortable as possible. We got in late on a rainy night and he met us at the door to explain about the Cottage and even put out a sign on the street to help us find the address more easily. We loved Waynesville and wish we could have stayed longer. We recommend this property highly!!

Thanks Tom for everything.

Wonderful little cottage. Only 2 blocks from downtown. Everything you could ever need in the kitchen. Bed was super comfortable. Hosts were very helpful with restaurants and things to do and see in the area.

Pleasant walk to breakfast and Main Street. Owners are really nice and accommodating. Good mattress,and pretty patio in back. Enjoyed delicious and inexpensive local food.

A stay in The Cottage sure beats a hotel room every day of the week! We traveled to Waynesville, NC for a mini-vacation staying 4 nights in The Cottage. The privacy of The Cottage, located in a quiet neighborhood within the city limits, was relaxing and convenient while providing space to spread out. The Cottage's close proximity to downtown (a short 2-block walk) was perfect for walking for morning/evening exercise as well as trips into downtown for shopping or dining. We enjoyed dining, antiquing and shopping in Waynesville, Hazlewood, Maggie Valley as well as hitting the local Christopher Farms for delicious tomatoes. Access to the Blue Ridge Parkway was only a 10-minute ride. We dined in a different locally-owned restaurant each night (e.g. Chef's Table, Frog Leap, Sweet Onion) and found the menus offered and meals of a very high culinary quality. Tom and Jeannie Tracy have renovated their 100-year old Cottage into a very comfortable, relaxing venue; and they provide helpful information, suggestions on local restaurants, events and attractions. The Cottage is stocked with fine quality linens, towels; and the kitchen is well stocked with china, utensils, cutlery, glassware, etc. The patio offers a quiet, private spot for reading, relaxing or just chair-rocking. We hope to return to The Cottage for our future stays in Waynesville!

My husband and I would highly recommend staying at The Cottage! The Cottage was pristine. The hosts were friendly and available at all times for any questions and recommendations! Definitely eat at The Sweet Onion in downtown. Easy access to freeways and great home base to other cities.
