Family loved it!

Our family stayed at the house while visiting us. I appreciated that all was on one floor, games for children, and family thought the beds and bathroom towels were great! Owner answered all questions and was very helpful. The house was very close to our location which made get togethers easy. It was a wonderful vrbo experience.

Great respite in Hendersonville

We could not have asked for more gracious hosts and the cottage was spotless-a high priority for us. Joe and Sandy were very accessible if needed. Many daily necessities were provided such as laundry soap, tissues, dish soap, shampoo & conditioner, hair dryers, etc. The location is very convenient to restaurants, grocery stores and area highlights. We enjoyed a very nice and relaxing stay in this lovely home.

Seeing friends

We were very pleased with the home. She had provided all the little extras that make it pleasant. The bed was very comfortable and the master room and closets very spacious. When we had a small issue she was there immediately to take care of it. If we return to Hendersonville it would be great to stay again.

Quiet living in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina

This is a quality property - it is obvious the owners take pride in ownership, guaranteeing their guests feel welcome. Great neighborhood...we enjoyed daily morning and evening walks which were complemented by brief discussions with friendly neighbors. The singing of various bird species each morning was an extra treat. We plan a return visit.

Great stay for the cost!

When we arrived, I realized I hadn't filled out a document. That was my fault. The owner came over within 10 minutes with the document for me to sign and helped us get in the house. The house was super clean and perfect for our needs as we were there for a family wedding.

Great Stay at the Sylvan Cottage!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Sylvan Cottage! Sandy was such a great, communicative host - she always responded so promptly! The house was so clean and cozy, but still had room for our multi-generational group - my husband and I, my parents, our teenager, and our toddler all had plenty of space. The house is exactly as pictured in listing. We enjoyed the front porch under the turning fall leaves and several peaceful walks through the quiet neighborhood. We will use this house as our base in Hendersonville every time we come back!

About the host

Hosted by Joe and Sandy Worley

Host profile image
We love being outdoors in this wonderful part of the world! One of our favorite outings is riding our bikes along the beautiful mountain roads, with the trek to Jump Off Rock being the most common. We also love hiking and exploring nature-scapes so close to home. We feel so blessed to live here and we love sharing about this town with our guests.

Why they chose this property

We moved about a mile from this property in 2018 and have absolutely LOVED the convenience of walking to town for coffee, lunch, or even dinner. We ride our bikes to Patton Park and hop on the Oklawaha Greenway. For a relatively small town, Hendersonville has many delicious restaurants and a vibrant downtown community with street festivals and music concerts in the summer months, as well as parades and celebrations for many holidays throughout the year.

Sylvan Town Cottage is close to parks, a bakery, bagel shop, day spa, restaurants, coffee shop, art gallery, putt-putt, shopping, theater, and hiking. Sidewalks run all the way to town. Easy access offers day trips to Asheville, Brevard, Flat Rock and surrounding areas.

When this unique and cozy cottage came available, we decided to purchase it and share it with guests who come to the area. We have another property, Penrose Mountain View Treehouse #1036767, near hiking in Transylvania County where we have enjoyed hosting many inspiring guests. It was only natural to expand our love of hospitality to Sylvan Town Cottage.

What makes this property unique

Incredible convenience, quiet setting (unlike the west side of town that has quite a bit of traffic). Secure garage for bike storage. Extremely comfortable furnishings. Close to bike trail, bakery, bagel shops, day spa, restaurants, coffee shop, art gallery, putt-putt, shopping, theater, and hiking. Sidewalks all the way to town. Easy access to Asheville, Brevard, Flat Rock and surrounding areas.
