About this property

Secluded getaway at Wayward Cottage

If you’re looking for a peaceful ‘unplugged’ weekend away, take a look at this cozy cottage located in the quaint community of Gorham’s Bluff. Rustic luxury at its best, this custom-built cottage is perfect for a romantic weekend away or for a friend group of four to gather.

This beautiful 1 bedroom, 2 full bath home has an upstairs loft with two twin sized beds. The home easily accommodates up to four guests comfortably. The large master bedroom suite has a queen size bed and an en-suite bath with a custom tiled shower. There is a 2nd full bathroom located at the bottom of the stairs making it easy access for guests staying in the loft. All linen, towels, and toiletries provided. There is a washer and dryer room complete with detergent. The well-equipped kitchen has everything you need for an overnight or a week-long stay. There is a gas grill located on the rear porch for those evenings when you prefer to eat in. Watch an old movie or favorite show on the 50” HD television or simply surf the internet using the complimentary wi-fi.

Situated in the heart of Gorham’s Bluff, the cottage is located adjacent to the well-maintained community pool. A playground for the little ones is located just outside the pool area. There are also hiking trails all around the Gorham’s Bluff community. Although the home is situated in a private location, there are many things to do in the area. Visit Scottsboro for a shopping spree to the Unclaimed Baggage Center or Henagar for a drive-in movie. Go for a hike on the Walls of Jericho hiking trail or visit the many parks in the area to include Cathedral Caverns State Park, Little River Canyon National Preserve or Stephen’s Gap Cave. Huntsville AL or Chattanooga TN are both less than an hour’s drive away.

The owner is off the property and interaction will be via phone and/or email. If necessary, one of the local caretakers of the property will be available.

Birthday getaway

Wayward Cottage was the perfect getaway. You couldn’t ask for a more relaxing area. The home was exceptional in every way. We felt like we were at home! You have everything you need, including towels for the hot tub, bathrobes, and even a seat warmer in the bathroom. Truly the little things make all the difference. I had a million questions for Paul, and he was quick to respond. We will definitely be going back as often as possible!

PERFECT GETAWAY!!

The cottage was so nice! We were extremely comfortable with everything we needed. The pool access next door was great! We went into Scottsboro to shop and eat. But the views and neighborhood are what take the cake at Gorhams Bluff!! It’s breathtaking views and friendly quiet neighborhood made for a perfect relaxing trip. We will be renting here again definitely! The owner,Paul, was always quick to answer any questions and very helpful.

Cozy and warm Getaway

We truly enjoyed our stay in this quiet semi-secluded area. The view was simply breathtaking. Great place for people wanting to relax. Complete with Comfy bed, full kitchen, and a jacuzzi that was so welcomed after a full day of shopping nearby. Definitely a place we look forward to booking again.

Perfect get-a-way!

We were looking for a quick getaway close to home. This cabin is the perfect place to unwind. We were impressed with the design, comfort, and how clean the cottage was during our stay. It is well equipped with everything that that we needed. Communication for our stay was excellent. We hope to return. Gorham’s Bluff has captured our families heart once again. Thank you for the memories.

About the host

Hosted by Paul Brock

Host profile image
I live in Virginia with my wife Mallory, my five daughters and our five dogs. We love traveling the country, spending time with family and friends, or just sitting at home drinking coffee on the front porch.

Why they chose this property

Mallory and I were traveling to New Orleans when we discovered the Gorham's Bluff community. We instantly fell in love with the area and began looking for a place that would allow us to occasionally come back and visit. We were fortunate to find the Wayward Cottage and continue to enjoy every moment that we spend there. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.
