About this property

Downtown Favorite, Hot Tub, Firepit, Cozy & Roomy

Thoughtfully remodeled. Bright and Spacious. Great Location!
Walk to local brewery, hiking trails, coffee shop, outfitters store, hot mineral springs spa, and more. Enjoy the evening soaking in a private hot tub right outside your back door.
This charming house has all the creature comforts to feel at home in the quaint town of Hot Springs. Bring a book & board games for relaxing indoor time, with your private hot tub steps away. Prime location to use as a home base for outdoor activities. Hot Springs is a great destination in all seasons! The weather is mild & roads are tended in the wintertime. Restaurants and shops are open as well, & we love to hike the Lover's Leap trail on cool, sunny days while things are a bit quieter.

The cottage is great for couples, families, or groups of friends.
Fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances and counters. Dining table seats 6 comfortably. Large smart TVs in the living room and master bedroom. Two rooms with oversized Queen beds and brand new extra soft sheets and bedding. The 3rd bedroom has a queen and XL twin bunk bed with plenty of bedding and adjacent bathroom. The living room has large, oversized furniture for a comfortable gathering space.

Great back deck with a grill and beautiful Spring Creek just across the street. There is a firepit and cornhole game for guest use. In season, there is a large herb garden to spice up your meals. If you are looking for a getaway in downtown Hot Springs, this is the perfect spot. The Cottage is not too big, and not too small. It's just right.
Hot Springs downtown experienced flooding, and the main downtown section and Hot Springs Resort and Spa are in various stages of cleanup and repair. Each of these businesses are closed.

The businesses that are open in town include Sara Jo’s Gas Station, Smoky Mountain Diner, Dollar General, and a couple of beverage/small grocery stores. They would love your business.

Many trails are accessible around the area, and Hot Springs is a central location for adventures in Western North Carolina, East Tennessee, and the Smokey Mountains National Park. Nearby attractions are the Biltmore Estate, Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge, Dollywood, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and more.

All major roads into and out of Hot Springs are accessible and safe.

We enjoyed the hot tub, very nice! The kitchen was well stocked with variety of utensils. If I could make one request the bottom bunk bed could use a better mattress. We had an adult who could not go up and down the stairs use it and it was not very comfortable. All the other beds were wonderful. We really enjoyed our stay in your home and look forward to coming back in the fall. Oh and your son, he is a very nice young man!!Dawn

We had a group with 2 couples staying at other places but we all gathered here! There was a total of 11 adults and not one single person was cramped.

Thank you Lindsay for taking the time to review the Little Stone Cottage, and for your kind words. I also think one of the perks to this house is being located in walking distance to all that the downtown of Hot Springs has to offer. Its nice to not get in your car if you do not want to. We hope you want to have a repeat in the future. If so, we would love to have you as our guest
