The space
This 700 square foot cottage has been completely remodeled and redesigned with an open floor plan, loft area, and a full kitchen and bath. It sleeps 2-4 people comfortably. Enjoy your morning coffee on the attached deck area and a relaxed mountain evening, sipping on a glass of wine while watching the fireflies. Cozy up by your own personal fire pit for a quiet evening in. Great for walking, jogging, and biking. The setting is quiet and feels somewhat remote, but you are not far from all that Saluda, Hendersonville, Tryon, Asheville, and Greenville have to offer.

Guest access
The cottage is equipped with a full kitchen, private bathroom, and deck area.
There is wifi but with the nature of the mountain location it is not always completely reliable depending on the weather.
Depending upon your service, wifi calling maybe helpful.

Other things to note
The main bedroom is equipped with a comfy king size bed. Loft area has 2 twin beds and a lounge chair.

Relaxing birthday getaway

Our birthdays are a week apart and fell on Fridays this year so we decided to take our dog and relax for week in the mountains. We had never been to Saluda and decided to give it a try. It was definitely a good decision as was the decision to book this VRBO. Our host was lovely, the cabin was charming and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and will return.

An Introverts 16th Birthday

My daughter turned 16 while we were staying at your property. Her request for her birthday was a trip to the mountains where she could hike and enjoy peace with her best friend. Your property fit the bill in every way. We enjoyed our stay very much. My daughter got exactly what she had asked for. Thank you.
