About this property

Gate Cottage, private getaway in a stylish new home w/views, hiking and a creek.

Welcome to Rock Hill Cottages! We now have the Gate Cottage and the Dairy Barn (separate listing--VRBO#51380894 available for short term rental! Kick back and relax in this calm, remote, stylish space. The Gate Cottage is located just inside and up the hill from our front gate; hence, the "Gate Cottage". Our Tennessee farm is at the very end of a dead-end road, with little to no traffic. Once you are here, you can put your feet up and relax, with few passersby, and no streetlights. Have a weekend or more away from it all, whether to read, write, rest, hike, fish, kayak from or to our creek--there are endless things to do, or do nothing at all.

The space
Enter from the front porch into the living area, with the fully appointed gourmet kitchen, laundry, shower and half-bath on the main floor. Upstairs is one large bedroom with a queen bed (Temperpedic Mattress), cast-iron bathtub, windows surrounding with great natural lighting, with a small room with two twin mattresses on the floor for either kids or a second couple. There is another half-bath upstairs, gas logs, vaulted ceilings, lush "Luxome" bamboo linens creating a spa-like retreat like no other.

Guest access
The entire house is available to guests, with the exception of an owners' closet. Guests have full access to the entire 150 acres to explore, excluding the owners' home on the hill, and the Dairy Barn house in the barnyard. Additionally, Bradshaw Creek is running through the property, which ties into the Elk River, so fishing, swimming, and kayaking are all available to you.

In the barnyard we have a slide and kid's hay fort for children to play, with adult supervision.

Recent additions to the Gate Cottage include its own private 5-foot round tub which can be warmed in the cooler months, and cooled in the summer months. Also new to the property is a fire pit and four Adirondack chairs, located behind the Gate Cottage, with firewood provided.

Need to work while visiting? The cottage has dependable (FIBER! 320 download speed, 304 upload speed) internet, and is quiet and away from distractions, as the Gate Cottage is separate and apart from the owners' home and Dairy Barn house in the barnyard.

Need a larger space? Consider our Dairy Barn Cottage, which is also on the property and sleeps 12 people and allows pets! It can be found on VRBO #51380894.

About the host

Hosted by Leigh Stephens

Host profile image

Our names are Jimmy and Leigh Stephens, and we have owned our farm for 20 years or so. We built the Gate Cottage in 2020 to have a place for our friends and family to stay at family functions, but also for short-term rental purposes. We love our farm and feel that it is a special place to live, and we raise animals for our family's consumption and we recently became USDA certified to sell our Angus/Wagyu beef and Red Waddle pork.

Why they chose this property

We chose this farm because it was remote but still checked all the boxes: a creek, fresh water springs, pastures, hills, and all within an hour from our work.

What makes this property unique

We are located at the end of the dead end on a gravel road. No one comes to the farm unless that is their destination. No passersby, no traffic, no distractions. It's peaceful and secluded.
