About the host
Hosted by David Sams
We are David and Darla Sams. Originally from Texas, we came to Brevard on vacation and fell in love with the mountains.
Why they chose this property
Location, location, location. The cottage is right next to a stream. During the summer you can sleep with the windows open hearing the sound of the falling water and have breakfast on the large porch. During the winter curl up in the living room with the gas fireplace.
What makes this property unique
Vaulted ceiling in the living room and kitchen. Newly remodeled with new appliances, cabinets, and fixtures throughout. Beautiful custom granite countertops in the kitchen.
