Buttercup Cottage, Historic Saluda, NC. Cozy Mountain Retreat
Cool breezes in the summer and the gorgeous color in the fall are just two of the reasons to vacation at Buttercup Cottage in Historic Saluda, NC. This cozy mountain cottage has 2 bedrooms (one with king bed and one with two twins), one bath, living room with gas fireplace, Satellite TV, DVR, free WiFi, and fully equipped dine-in kitchen. There is also a large deck with gas grill for 'al fresco' dining. And we are a non-smoking facility.
The cottage is fully heated and air conditioned and is available all year round. All linens are provided and there is a washer and dryer. Canine friendly. In summer guests have access to owner's large vegetable garden on site.

Biltmore estate, many excellent restaurants, theater plus outdoor activities such as hiking, kayaking, zip line, river floating right in Saluda. Many trails including waterfalls close by.

About the host
Hosted by Marti Wells
Originally purchased for a summer getaway. When we retired to Saluda and built our new home, we kept the cottage for family and friends to use when visiting. Later, we decided to open it for short time rentals, so we spruced it up, bought new beds and here we are.
Why they chose this property
We love Saluda! We live here and love sharing with visitors this special place called Saluda.
What makes this property unique
Short easy walk to Main Street Saluda.
Located in a quiet neighborhood, on a dead-end street, we are one of the few truly dog friendly accommodations in Saluda....and we have a yard.
Many of our guests love the deck where they can enjoy their morning coffee or a cocktail while grilling at dinner time. Deck is designed with gate to allow furry guests free access with their humans. We have an extensive summer garden and share the bounty with our guests...they are welcome to pick their own fruits and veggies...can't get fresher than that.
