About this property

Our newly renovated (1 bedroom/1 loft/2 bath/sleeps 6) cozy cabin sits on 12 acres and feels remote, but is only 2.5 miles from downtown Travelers Rest. It is just minutes from the Swamp Rabbit Trail, numerous state parks, endless shopping opportunities, family (and dog) friendly eating establishments, well-known breweries, wineries, distilleries, and meaderies (yes, mead!). Our closest town, Travelers Rest (TR as the locals call it) is an up-and-coming gem in the heart of Greenville County's most beautiful travel and adventure destinations. Only 15 minutes away is Greenville, SC--one of the most beautiful and cleanest cities in Blue Ridge Country. A little farther north is Asheville, NC, home of the Biltmore Estate and Winery. Drive a short distance to endless hiking and biking trails, river rafting, skiing, tubing, other quaint towns, and more!
You may not even want to leave the 12-acre property with trails, outdoor games, a saucer swing, hammocks, a river, a fire pit, indoor games, puzzles, crafts, books, DVDs, internet TV, WIFI, and more! Plus, an updated kitchen with brand new appliances, quartz countertops, and country-chic dishware and utensils. If you like to cook, we've got what you need, if you don't, food is just a phone call or short drive away!
Bringing some Littles along? We have a pack 'n play with basinet, baby monitor, high chair booster seat, bathtub seat, a changing pad, toilet seat, baby gate, children's books, games, and crafts.
Bringing your fur baby along (20 lbs. or less dog)? We have a kennel, bed, blankets, rugs, towels, long leash, toys, a brush, and bowls just for them.
Even though it feels far away, you don't need a 4-wheel drive to get here, any vehicle will do. Uber and Lyft are readily available from either the Asheville or Greenville/Spartanburg airport; it is a 30 min. drive, appx. $50 ride share fee. But, we do recommend a car if you want to explore the many hiking trails, Greenville, Greer and other outlying towns.
When you're not here, we are, so we have designed it to be the quaint retreat that we all need it to be. Take a deep breath, rest, relax, and rejuvenate. Enjoy TR Retreat!

Perfect for R & R

It was the perfect place for us to get some much-needed rest and relaxation. We truly enjoyed our stay & our pup had a blast running around in the yard! The pictures do not do it justice, the cabin & property exceeded our expectations. Paris Mountain State Park, Greenville, Downtown Traveler Rest & the Swamp Rabbit Trail are all close by.

Secluded but close to town

This was the perfect place for a long weekend family getaway. We visited with my daughter at Furman. I have no complaints the cabin was very clean and cozy. It sits on a large piece of property secluded from everything. I hope to rent this property many times over the next few years as we come to visit my daughter and the Traveler's Rest area.

About the host

Hosted by Ann

During an anniversary bike ride along Swamp Rabbit Trail, my husband and I fell in love with Travelers Rest and Greenville and decided to buy our little slice of heaven to share with our family and friends, and now you too. The people, the cleanliness, the outdoors, the history, and the food, all make the area a highly desirable vacation destination. Our family visits the cabin as often as we can, each time discovering new adventures and making new friends. Our little cabin has given us precious memories of our time here together.

Why they chose this property

We love the open space that is close to everything, yet feels miles away. With wildlife aplenty, we enjoy sitting in the front porch rockers, drinking coffee, and breathing in the fresh air. With hiking, biking, and shopping so nearby, you can always find something to do or simply stay home and enjoy the cozy cabin and outdoor fun.

What makes this property unique

We have carved out a few trails; one that leads to a stream and the other to open fields. They are unmarked so just get out there and start exploring. The saucer swing is also a hit, just watch out for the tree. There is another beautiful hike less than a mile away at Bunched Arrowhead Preserve: from our driveway, go left, then your first right onto McCauley Rd., then you will see the parking lot on your right. Also, during the summer months, look up concerts in Trailblazer Park and Paris Mountain, movie nights, etc. There is so much to do (or not do) in the area.
If you have bikes, bring them. You can ride them around our property or go a short distance to one of the many mountain bike trails on Paris Mountain or paved Swamp Rabbit Trail. Whatever you decide to do, you will have plenty to choose from. Enjoy your stay.
