Love this little cottage! We hope to be able to stay here again. Allison and Floyd were great hosts and very accessible. I don’t think the pictures did this place justice. The bed was firm and comfortable as well as the other furniture. You can’t always say that about every VRBO. Pinewood Guesthouse is perfect for a couple or small family. They had everything we needed.

Weekend to Edenton

We stayed here 4 years ago when I was working nearby. We loved it so much we wanted to come back and do it for fun. The property and owners did not disappoint. A great place to stay for a quiet weekend. Parking is great, wifi is great, property was beyond clean when we arrived. It will probably be another 4 years but I would definitely stay here again and again.

The Pinewood was the perfect stay for us!! The cleanliness and comfort made it the most stress free environment to relax and recharge from life and today’s chaos. The owners were both courteous and kind. Communication was spot on and we had everything we needed and more. We will definitely be staying again when we visit relatives in the future.

A Cozy Stay

A beautiful well kept cottage in NC. Everything was very clean and beautiful. The host Allison was very communicative and reachable every step of the process. She even went above and beyond and had something very special and detailed when we arrived since it was my fiancé’s bday. I would highly recommend this cottage. We were pleasantly surprised that it was exactly how the listing showed. Allison thank you so much.

Delightful Stay

Pinewoods cottage was cozy, well-appointed, and sparkling clean. It's across a parking area from the hosts' house, but we didn't ever meet them and felt quite private. We cooked our dinners and found all the pans, utensils etc. that we needed. A bonus for us older folks was the textured shower floor, a great safety feature. hostess Allison gave us several good tips about local places to visit in response to our questions. All in all, a happy experience.

Excellence!

Quiet country setting with every amenity you will need for a weekend or, as in my case, a month-long stay. Ali and Boots are very nice people that are attentive to questions or requests but otherwise leave you alone. Comfy beds and furniture, fully stocked kitchen, new washer and dryer are standout amenities, but nothing about this property is 2nd rate. Lighted seating area behind the cottage was enjoyed on a daily basis. If you need a wonderful place to stay in this area, stay here. And it's cheaper than the Hampton Inn in Edenton with so much more to offer. Can't say enough good things about this property or the Owners!

It was beautiful, not what's advertised, but very cute.

This tiny house is adorable! They are the most kid and baby friendly place I have ever been to. They have kids toys, games, utensils, dishes, a high chair, and, outside, a play set. I was very impressed. The house is super cute. It comes with a full kitchen (completely stocked), dining area, washer, dryer, an awesome Jacuzzi tub, a shower, two very comfortable beds, a couch, tv, and movies. It is a wonderful little place to stay!! The only thing I was disappointed about is the actual rooms themselves. There are not two bedrooms. There is a very nice bedroom, an awesome bathroom (washer and dryer inside), and another big room. Inside that big room are four distinct sections: the kitchen, the dining area, a bed and chest, and the living area (a couch, tv, and movies. It is a super nice place and I would definitely go back! Loved it! Allison was wonderful to work with! I was just a bit surprised to find only one bedroom.

Glad you had such a great time with your family and that you enjoyed your stay with all the added touches!!! *****Sorry to see that we did not receive a 5 star review and that you thought we "advertised incorrectly." You must not have read the listing correctly as we list as a QUEEN SUITE (open to living area) with QUEEN BEDROOM. The pictures show it exactly as it is. When we furnished the cottage, we tried to make the most of the area and added an extra bed in the living area to make it a suite. We did not intend for the cottage to be for big groups of people but for couples and small families who do not mind sharing the space together. Since this was your first stay in a vrbo home, I can see how you were easily confused. Thanks again

About the host

Hosted by Allison Layden

Host profile image
We are a family of 5. Floyd grew up in Belvidere and I (Allison) was born in GA. We were married in 2000 and cleared the lot given to us by Floyds Father. We put a home on the 20 acre piece. We built the cottage in the side yard for family when they travel here to visit and then decided to share it with guests. We enjoyed building it and look forward to sharing it with others! All wood, cathedral ceilings, walls and floor are wood, cork, and laminate. No carpet here for allergies to stir up!

Why they chose this property

Laid back neighborhood in the country with super nice family atmosphere.

What makes this property unique

Sit on the front porch and read a book in our Rocking Chair. Catch up on your favorite shows or movies. Go a half a mile to the country style restaraunt with nice gift shop inside a historic home. Visit the country store as well, where they still have hoop cheese and cut fresh meat to order! (Featured in OUR STATE Magazine)We are set back in time! No rush here! Just relax!
