About the host
Hosted by Patrick & Christy Lafferty
We and this property have a story. Years after departing decades in Texas, we sold some inheritance there and purchased this property as both a legacy to our children and a gift of hospitality to others. We delight in being able to help people feel welcome and have spent innumerable days creating these spaces for others to enjoy.
Why they chose this property
We wanted to furnish the kind of cozy haven where our family could find peace, rest, and togetherness. Deer Bluff Cottage has room to stretch out, views to make you breathe deeply again, and quick access to everything Western North Carolina has to offer. The Cottage takes its name from its location on a high bluff where deer and other local fauna have found a hospitable relationship with the few humans around.
What makes this property unique
Deer Bluff Cottage is the warm, quiet refuge you've been looking for. And if you're traveling with a larger group or other families, rent the adjacent Antler Falls Cabin and gain access to the entirety of the property.
