About this property

Cozy cottage along the beautiful Mitchell River

If you enjoy the outdoors, the sounds of the river flowing, and watching wildlife you will love staying at our cozy cottage. You can take a stroll along or go fishing at the river. There is a1so a firepit that you can relax by. Inside the cottage is everything you will need to be comfortable. As you watch TV or read a good book, you can turn on the gas logs in the fireplace. There are conveniences such as high speed internet and a smart TV. If you want to cook there is a full kitchen with dishes, utensils, and appliances. You will have a great view of the river from every room.
Occasionally, we do have baptisms at the river. We will let you know ahead if there is one scheduled.
It is located within 10 minutes from downtown Elkin, 15 minutes from Dobson, and 30 minutes from Mt Airy. We are close to many vineyards. If you enjoy hiking or beautiful views we are close to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Stone Mountain State park, and Pilot Mountain.

The cottage was all that we had hoped. A quiet retreat to relax and come back to after a day of exploring wineries and hiking. The river and fire lit provide a wonderful back drop to sit and relax. The cottage is perfect for a couple.

Tiny house with Big view! It is so nice to find a cozy place just the right size for two. Our reason to rent was because my husband could FLY FISH right there on property. A fishing guide had recommended the Mitchell River having the best stocked rainbow trout during the season of catch & release. The fall leaves in the Yadkin Valley were glorious!

This property was the perfect location for a quiet, relaxing weekend. We loved being able to listen to the creek and look out the windows to see nothing but nature. It had everything we needed in the kitchen and plenty of towels in the bathroom. We appreciated the snacks too! We'll definitely look to stay here again when we need another rejuvenating weekend for just the two of us!

Beautiful, peaceful stay!

This is a fantastic little cottage on a gorgeous property! The cottage was very clean and had all of the basic necessities. This property is located nearby to multiple vineyards and small towns, yet it feels very secluded and quiet! I would definitely recommend visiting!
