Had an amazing stay at this comfortable and conveniently located cottage. It had everything we needed, was clean, and was a short drive from Main Street Brevard and some beautiful parks.

We travel to Brevard often to see our daughter at BC. We were very pleased with this cottage. Very clean, comfortable, quiet, and close to all there is to do. We will be staying there again.

Thanks for being such a great guest Amanda!! and thanks for your 5-star review! I'd love to host you again anytime you come back to Brevard.
This place was so perfect! My dog and i had been hiking the caolina mountaosn for a few days and we needed angood place to recover. It was clean, very close to shops, restaurants and much much more. Just great! I love it. We loved it
My wife and I stayed at the cottage for our first anniversary. This was such a nice find. I wanted to find a place close to the entrance to the national forest since we love hiking the parkway. This cottage was so clean and updated, we loved coming back to it at the end of the day. Check in and out was easy and communication with Heidi was easy.

Thanks James for staying at our Trailhead Cottage and for taking the time to write this awesome 5-star review!! I didn't know it was your wedding anniversary celebration trip, wow what a fantastic getaway!! I'm so happy to hear you enjoyed your time and I'd love to welcome you both back anytime, we appreciate wonderful guests like you two.
My husband and I love the mountains to bike, run and relax. Trailhead Cottage was a big part of what we enjoyed during this years visit. Communication with Heidi was easy. The cottage was nicely stocked, very clean, comfortable and private. Everything we liked to do was close by: walking along the Davidson River, drinks at the Hub and dinners at Ecusta. Short drive to Ingles for groceries and best of all was the proximity to our favorite trails at PNF and DuPont. We definitely will be booking a stay at this property in 2026.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review!! And most importantly, thank you so much for being AWESOME guests!! I'm so happy to hear you had a great time doing what you love in this part of WNC, I would love to host you again when you come back next year.
From the time you book til you drive up it’s a peaceful place. The place was immaculate and inviting. As a professional cleaner, I couldn’t be more impressed with the way it’s taken care of. We loved the communication with the host and the privacy of the place. Will definitely stay again.

Thank you for the awesome review!! We would love to host you again anytime you're back visiting the area.
The location was perfect. Close to both Pisgah and Dupont which was great for riding and hiking. Also close to the grocery store, gas station and a few eateries. The unit itself was clean, uncluttered and had all of the conveniences of home. They even provided a bike wash station when I asked if there was a place to clean bikes. Communication with the host was top notch. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to friends and family!

Thanks Erin for this great review!! We enjoyed hosting you and would love to welcome you back anytime you're visiting the area.
My daughter and I stayed at Trailhead Cottage for a 5 day girls’ getaway. It was immaculate, had everything we needed, and was conveniently located to literally EVERYTHING we wanted to do—hiking, horseback riding, and Sliding Rock in Pisgah; tubing on the Davidson River; hiking and cycling in Dupont; and exploring Downtown Brevard.
Heidi was extremely responsive and very helpful with information about the locations of various activities.
I especially appreciated the bike stand and bike washing station at the property.
Highly recommend this unit!

Thank you Cathy for the fabulous review and being such wonderful guests !! I would love to host you again anytime your coming to the Brevard area.
This is our second time in 7 months staying at this nicely appointed Trailside cottage. We were able to park our truck for most of our stay and bike to the HUB; the trailhead of several trails in the Pisgah National forest and enjoy running and picnics along the beautiful and serene Davidson River. Close by are other restaurants, an ice cream stand, Sabora food truck (definitely check them out!) and a bakery, It is a perfect location, the hosts are fabulous and we already have reservations for September

Thank you Scott for being such wonderful guests! so excited for your return trip in September :)
Ideal location for access to Pisgah. Next to some local restaurants and shops. Close to downtown as well. Tucked off the main road in an isolated location that would be fine to leave bikes overnight or during the day. The rental was clean and well kept. Having laundry available was also a plus if we needed to wash some clothes. Would stay here again 100%.
