The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to cook and gather - from pots, pans, baking sheets, and utensils to dishes, glassware, and basic seasonings with cooking oils. Appliances include an oven, microwave, air fryer, crock pot, toaster, blender and both drip and pour-over coffee makers. The dining table seats four, with two additional stools at the counter for casual breakfasts and late night chats.

Beds are made with hotel-quality linens, and a starter supply of paper towels, toilet paper, and basic cleaning essentials is provided - more than enough for a long weekend. The bathroom is stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and hand soap - the everyday comforts you’d expect.

FYI/Important Details:
A-Frame Charm: Part of the charm of this home is its unique angles. Please be mindful of your head when getting in and out of bed or moving through a few cozy corners.
Loft Access: The upstairs loft is accessed by steep, ladder-style stairs with low railings. It is not recommended for children, pets, or those with mobility challenges.
Loft Temperature: Due to the A-frame design, the loft will be warm on sunny afternoons and a bit cooler on brisk mornings. It typically cools comfortably in the evenings, but guests who are especially heat-sensitive may prefer the main-level bedroom.

Host was super responsive and helpfulPlace is cozy and had great games to play, record player etc. Great location to everythingWould definitely stay again!
To quote my husband, “this is probably the best VRBO we’ve ever stayed in.” What a quaint cabin. Everything was lovely; the decor, the location, the cleanliness. One thing to note: the stairs to the loft are fairly steep.
We had a great time at this home. It was so cozy, clean, great location and had everything you could need. We are happy to share it with all of our friends and family. I loved all of the little mushroom decor scattered throughout the home. The host was very kind and friendly. Great recommendations on local things to do and places to eat.
We really enjoyed our stay. The only thing to consider is that, with 3 adults, the person who sleeps in the downstairs bedroom should be aware that the one bathroom is in their room. Otherwise it’s spotless and has a lot of wonderful character
The cottage and amenities were absolutely perfect. It was the most pleasant and relaxing weekend for us. We appreciated the kitchenwares, the decor, and the record player. The bed was so comfortable! I would highly recommend this for anyone.
The cabin is adorable and homey. The kitchen is very well stocked. I loved the screened in porch and yard. We had a wedding in Mt Airy and was able to make a hiking weekend with the dogs. I would highly recommend!
