About this property

This lovely historic home sleeps 7 guests and is surrounded by the serenity of Bradley Nature Preserve and beautiful gardens. It’s also just a 10 minute walk from Main Street Saluda and it's quaint shops and restaurants.
Make home made pizzas in the outdoor pizza oven, swing on the porch or the hammock, let the dogs play in the dog run, or choose a trail in the Nature Preserve just beyond the yard. And ofcourse, make S'mores in the Fire Pit and sip on some local wine while you watch the busy forest

Dream Stay at Serenity

My husband and I from Chicago met up with our son's family at Serenity. They arrived an hour before us and texted immediately to say the house is "FANTASTIC!" That word describes our entire week stay at your lovely home! The house had old-world charm but with all the modern amenities and conveniences. Our 2 grandchildren (age 9 years plus a toddler age 20 months) loved the tree swing and playing outside in the lovely grounds. It was great being right next to the nature preserve and we even found some morel mushrooms on our walk! We loved exploring Saluda and found the people amazingly friendly and clearly proud of their little town. We also spent a day exploring Hendersonville and Asheville. The only disappointment was that my son and family were really hoping to spot bears ... maybe on our next visit! Our host Tricia could not have been more helpful in providing info about the area, restaurants, things to do, etc. She made the reservation process and check-in and -out process so easy. We loved playing the ring hook game on the back deck and we even made home-made pizza one evening! The kitchen was very well-stocked, and we definitely availed ourselves of that as we had a toddler whose schedule kept us home for dinner quite a bit! The only thing that could have made our stay better would have been an additional week at Serenity. We'd love to go back later in the spring to enjoy more of this beautiful area of NC and get in more hiking and exploring.

Second stay

Love this location! Close enough to town but not in the middle of it! Just what we wanted! We travel to the Saluda area often, will definitely stay here again if it’s available!

Our Christmas Rental

Very nice host. Charming, clean (only top of fridge missed), spacious, pet-friendly home with comfortable beds and many starter items (soap, spices, etc.). Great location at .6 miles from downtown Saluda. Around the corner from I-26. Would've traded the larger nightstands for smaller tables to accommodate a king bed in one of the rooms. We knew there were no kings when we booked, but we didn't realize our 40-something bones and 200+ pound bodies didn't sleep as well in queens anymore. We knew there was only one shower in the house (suggest adding a handshower to the tub upstairs), but didn't know that the only way in and out of the one bathroom on the main level was through the bedroom, which was limiting. TV only in one of the four bedrooms (could be a pro or con depending on preference). Great smart tvs in the family room and kids' room. The only other suggestion is to replace or add to the sheer curtains for more sun block and privacy. Due to cooler temps and rain, we didn't spend any time outdoors, but the deck, porch, and fire pit were inviting (would've been nice to have a working fireplace in the home). This is our sixth rental in Polk County/the area. It is top two.

About the host

Hosted by Tricia Reynolds

My family and I live in Greenville SC and this is our second home. Eventually, my husband and I will retire in this sweet little home in Saluda permanently. I own and operate 5 short term rentals currently, and love this business!

Why they chose this property

We absolutely fell in love with the historic charm and quiet feel of this property. It's easy walkability to Main Street makes it a fun small-town getaway, and it's proximity to nature means there is always somewhere beautiful to go hiking and adventuring.
