We had a wonderful experience. Appropriated beautifully. Cozy and comfortable. Loved the big porch swings. In the quiet of the woods and nature, yet close to anything you’d want to do.

Super easy check-in and out. Responsive host. Gorgeous place with lots of extras (screened-in porch, inside and outside fireplaces, porch swings, huge walk in shower, and more). It’s amazing and the attention to details (artistically and functionally) are superb! My wife was in heaven!

This is an exceptional guest cottage. The experience was beyond what words could describe. The cottage itself was peaceful, quaint, and impeccably decorated. Every amenity that you could possibly desire was at your fingertips. The hostess was readily available but respectful of privacy. The pictures couldn’t possibly capture the charm of this cottage. We’ll be returning when visiting the area in the future. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Best rental I have ever stayed at! The house was immaculate! It was exactly what the pictures showed. There was plenty of room, yet it was so cozy! We ventured nearby towns during the day and stayed at the cottage at night. Built a fire on the outside porch fireplace and read each night we were there. It was the most relaxing few days away that we both needed!

The Hickory Cottage was absolutely fantastic for a four night stay for us. It's a beautiful home in a lovely and quiet location. It was perfect for us to work from home during the day and go to Greenville for dinner in the evening. The cottage had everything we needed, and Stacey is a phenomenal host. We have stayed at a lot of VRBO's, and this one ranks at the top for value, convenience, and location - outside of the city, but close enough to venture in when we wanted to. It's truly a hidden gem. I highly recommend it for a solo traveler or couple who don't want to stay downtown.

We stayed here for our wedding weekend & it was perfect. We have traveled a lot and this was by far our favorite place we have ever stayed. We even kept talking about how we would love to live here! I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a very nice & adorable cottage. We hope to return here every year to celebrate our anniversary. The hosts were incredibly kind and left us a nice card and surprise in the fridge for us to celebrate our marriage! We were very touched by their thoughtfulness. This property has any & every thing you may need. Our last full day was a little chilly & my husband built us a fire on the outdoor screened-in porch and we watched movies all day while listening to the wildlife behind us. It was perfect. Cannot recommend this place enough!!

This is by far, the nicest, cleanest, and welcoming places my wife and I have ever stayed for a VRBO. We utilized it as a place to stay while in town for our daughter’s wedding. The finishes in this cottage are perfect. The bathroom has the perfect touches for a relaxing stay. The furniture and appliances are first class. I would pay for this cottage again for a Greenville staycation! Much gratitude for excellent hosts!

WOW!!! A week of pure bliss. I felt like snow white in the forest. The cottage was even better in person. So clean and inviting. Stacy did not overlook one detail. Getting to meet her and her donkeys made my whole trip. Her whole family was very welcoming and informative. Two fireplaces made this rental extra special. That kitchen!!! I just had to do some cooking. Having a washer & dryer made my return home more pleasant. So many towns to see within 30 miles. We fell in love with the area and are now sure that this is where in will retire in a few years. Stacy and her husbands kindness is what this world needs. We went home feeling like we made our first friends in South Carolina. They are truly blessed. Thanks for sharing your home

This cottage is darling! Spacious, bright, beautifully decorated! We enjoyed the screened porch where we watched TV one afternoon. The bed was really comfortable, and kitchen had everything we needed. The hosts were so accommodating. The photos can’t do justice to how lovely this cottage is in real life.

This was the most wonderful place to stay. It was decorated for Christmas, and it was so warm and welcoming. I am a designer, and my husband is a custom home builder. We noticed right away the beauty of the cottage, warmth and everything you could want or need for your stay. Our host was great! We will stay again and highly recommend this VRBO
