The cottage was great. Nicely appointed kitchen and clean throughout. We enjoyed the books about the history of the area and this was a great launching point for all our hiking. Highly recommend.

Super cozy little house. Bathroom is downstairs so folks with mobility issues may need to make sure they can navigate the steps. The fine details such as decor, board games, interesting books, and even the record player made our stay much more comfortable and memorable. There is a child safety gate available that was helpful keeping our very elderly dog off the steps and safe which meant a lot to me. Overall fantastic property and we will consider staying here if we ever return in the future.

We enjoyed our short stay in the mountains. Home is interesting with the history on the walls. Kitchen is well stocked. Beds were comfortable and clean. Unfortunately it rained so we weren't able to use the good size deck or the grass area but these looked great for a sunny day. We would definitely return if in the area again. The local Mexican restaurant is really good too

Just Right

A family member had a place on the lake. This delightful house was a perfect satellite location. Very clean and well-stocked with a modern kitchen and great porches. Plus, we loved the old family photos.

Clean & Close to Greystone Inn

We stayed for a quick weekend with our 2 dogs and had a wonderful stay. This property was a 10 minute drive from the Greystone Inn, where our friends got married, and about 15-20 min from Gorge State Park where we did the Rainbow Falls Trail, and had a blast!

Amazing! Even though my hosts were on vacation themselves they stayed in regular contact. These folks become friends on our first visit last fall and I can't say enough good things about the house and about their hospitality. Lovely visit

Our New Place in Toxaway

We thorughly enjoyed our stay at this cozy, historic mountain hideaway. We were 15 minutes away from Cold Mountain Trailhead at Panthertown, 15 minutes away from Tannassee Lake, and a only 22 minutes away from our Wolf Lake. We will be back in October. We can't wait to be back.

Loved it!

This home with so much family history was great for a three generations girls trip. We came up to see snow and let my daughter go skiing for the first time. It was a great location to where we were skiing (in Sapphire Valley). The surrounding area was lovely. The hosts couldn’t be nicer. Overall, we had a trip that we will always remember!
