We wanted to find a place that was close to our nephew’s wedding and this was the best choice we could have made. Deb was an excellent host leaving us water and the s’mores. She was willing to work with us to allow the groom’s father an earlier check in so he could easily make it to the rehearsal. The hot tub was perfect to relax in after the rehearsal and right before the wedding. We had plenty of space for everyone to get ready for the wedding. We are so glad we found this place and would definitely stay there again!

5 Stars – Perfect Cottage Getaway!

We absolutely loved this cute cottage! It was the perfect spot for our family celebration. The hosts went above and beyond with thoughtful extras like s’mores supplies and donuts—such a sweet surprise!The beds were super comfortable, and relaxing in the hot tub at the end of the day was the cherry on top. The cottage was well-stocked with everything we needed for our short stay.Highly recommend this cozy and charming home—we’ll definitely be back when in the area!

Fantastic little cottage.

This beautifully updated VRBO has everything you could possibly need to stay! The owners are so attentive and kind. We were a little surprised it was on such a busy street, but traffic quiets down at night. Super location, close to Seven Springs and hiking trails. Would recommend for large groups! Easily sleeps up to 10 and again, everything you can need and more is provided.

Thank you, Karen. We are so happy you enjoyed your stay! We are located on the state route that runs through the mountain, so we do get a good bit of traffic. When renovating the cottage, we heavily insulated the interior and installed brand new, well-insulated windows to minimize the noise. Most of our guests say they don't notice any traffic noise when indoors. I realize most of your group chose to get the "camping experience", so the traffic noise would be more noticeable when sleeping in tents. We definitely get the good and the bad with our location. The traffic can be noisy at times, but we are fortunate to be located in the heart of it all, by being on the state route. Thanks for choosing Middle Mountain Cottage. Hope you can return some day!
