About this property
The Forest Door - Studio Suite in Stone Cottage
This lovely studio apartment is a special place-private, quiet, comfortable, surrounded by trees and nature, and decorated with style and flair. Located right above Harmon Field on the outskirts of Tryon, and convenient to just about everything, this oasis feels a hundred miles away from it all. The window views make it feel like a tree-house, and the natural stone walls bring to mind a Mediterranean taverna. Perfect for a solo trip and room for a couple (and can work with a small child).
The kitchenette has all you need for quick and easy meals. Fridge/freezer, microwave, toaster oven, high end hot plate, , coffee maker, full sink and complete dishware. The studio is very spacious, and if you have a child, the futon sofa is perfect.
Guests can park up in the top driveway area, where it is easier to maneuver. The apartment is very private and secluded from the main house entrances.
We are in the house attached, and can answer any questions you may have. We leave you to your independence, or will interact if it is appropriate. You are the guests and the time here belongs to you....
We have a nice walking circuit, right out the front door, which takes you through the woods. Harmon Field is a 2 minute walk down the lane, with multiple sports amenities.
For stays of 1-20 days, we add a cleaning for $65. For stays or 20-30 days, we add 2 cleanings at $65 per. Thank you. Launder services available, but no W/D within the space.

The host is welcoming and the decor is beautiful. The location is private and close to town. Tryon has a small and charming street downtown with a few unique restaurants and art galleries.

The hosts of this property were amazing from start to finish. The space was super nice, the bed was very comfortable...you really can't ask for more. Thank you!
We stayed here the night after our wedding, and it was the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy our first night as a married couple. The apartment was beautiful, cozy, and peaceful—exactly what we needed to relax and start our new chapter together. Monica was so sweet and helpful! Highly recommend for a romantic getaway!
Monica provided excellent communication before and during my stay. Directions to the property were perfect and every thing I needed for a comfortable, relaxing weekend was provided. The property is nestled in a wooded development, it’s quiet and the bed was divinely comfortable. If your soul and body need a “recharge,” this is the place to go!
I've never stayed in such an incredibly serene location. It is was so beautiful. The rental was superb. The best finishing touches of any I've ever stayed. The host is super nice and helpful. Exceptionally clean and the most beautiful decor. Would stay here again for sure.
The apartment and property were absolutely beautiful. Monica made us feel so welcome and even had special treats for my granddaughter. Excellent location near Saluda, Flat Rock and Hendersonville. Would highly recommend!!

About the host
Hosted by Monica Stevenson
Hello, I am a commercial and fine art photographer. I travel often for work--back and forth from Tryon and the Big Apple and beyond. Welcome to our lovely neighborhood!
Why they chose this property
The house and apartment are situated on a beautiful treed hillock about Harmon Field. From every window one can see leaves and the mountains behind. The feeling is one of serenity and privacy, yet the town is a 5 minute drive down the lane. I LOVE how quiet the property is. So conducive to sleep....
