About this property
Adorable home w/ huge back yard- minutes from Belews Lake. Amazing Hidden Gem
*Look no further. Minutes from Belews Lake, our beautifully decorated cottage welcomes you to rejuvenate and refresh. We offer a cozy, country stay close to the Carolina Marina, wedding venues, DanRiver rafting, quaint wineries and other recreational experiences all within a short drive or stay home and enjoy the back yard.
**Your rental proceeds supports our non profit 501 c3, so thank you for picking our home over investor vacation rentals. Our desire is to make your stay as comfy as possible, so please reach out with any questions or ways we can help.
**We offer a fully stocked kitchen with serving pieces that go above and beyond a typical rental (since events occur in the additional barn we have everything to throw a great party.)
**With three (or four) bedrooms, we've maximized the indoor living space with four queen beds and a twin daybed in the fourth bedroom that doubles as family room/bedroom. Two full bathrooms with one of them located in the master bedroom. **Due to allergies, this is a non smoking and no pets allowed property. Please do not book if either are needed amenities.
**A big back yard and huge deck offers plenty of space for lawn games and gatherings, plus we have outdoor tables, comfy seating areas with sofas and chairs, as well as an outdoor fire pit.
Throughout this year, we are continuing to work on the large backyard as we turn it into a special place for all the community gatherings.
*Additional large gathering space (pictures shown) is available with donation and is a perfect spot if you want to host a family reunion, company picnic, shower etc. All proceeds support local non-profit community outreaches and it helps further our mission.
As an event planner, please reach out if you’d like to plan a special gathering here.
**Washer and dryer are available in a storage section of our unfinished basement but only for those staying four or more evenings. ***Outdoor security camera is placed down driveway.

About the host
Hosted by Jennifer Schmidt

Our big family is thrilled to welcome you to the Becoming Cottage. I have a love for swinging wide our door and offer a warm Southern welcome of hospitality to strangers far and near, so please let me know if I can answer any questions about our area. We are just a few houses away if you need us. P

Why they chose this property
The Becoming Cottage is a hub for my non profit ministry and your rental proceeds help us offset the mounting expenses as we reach out to the community by offering a safe place of respite and welcome. Our hope is that as you leave, you will feel refreshed and renewed as you watch the sun set, listen to the geese and frogs or just relax on the outdoor sofas while roasting some marshmallows on the fire pit.
The outside space is still in process as our family is slowly fixing up the property, so enjoy the country feel. :)

What makes this property unique
While it's only a few minutes drive to the lake, our backyard gives a wooded, rustic, peaceful feel if you choose to relax at your home away from home.
