Our family of 4 had a really nice visit in this house, close to town and many hiking trails. We had lots of room to spread out and relax on a couple of the rainy days that we spent indoors. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking, and sitting out on the back deck was really relaxing.

Perfect weekend!

Our family came to this house to be together to celebrate two life events for our Warren Wilson College students. This cottage provided the perfect space for our multi-generational group. The space provided adequate sleeping space and additional spaces for “break away” groups. The house was comfortable and the attention to detail in the furnishings and embellishments were a plus.
