It is everything you are looking for... Entrance to the cottage is on the lower level which has a bedroom, full bath, den/2nd living room, laundry room and covered deck with the hot tub.

Super cute cabin. You come in on the bottom floor with the extra family room,queen bedroom and a full bath, small in size but perfect to rinse off before and after the hot tub. Head up the stairs to a roomy living/dining area, kitchen is fully stocked, the view is so pretty and the creek next to the cabin can be heard from both decks. Cabin is close to shopping & restaurants. Will definitely come back.
A very nice place convenient to cities, sites (waterfalls, etc.), shopping, while still out in the woods. Appreciated that all roads to the place were paved. The host was extremely quick in responding to my inquiries. The calm setting on the porch was perfect for morning coffee, and all day long. Will definitely be going back again.
Everything was very nice. The kitchen could have used some spoons and dish towels. We really enjoyed the peace and quiet. It was close to things we wanted to see.
We loved the Stoney Brook Cottage. The listing was completely accurate. The home was nice, easy to get to and convenient to so many things. I would definitely stay here again.
The hot tub was nice, felt like we were in a tree house! The house provided all we needed. Although the little house needs some love... it is tired. The upstairs bed was comfortable.

Thanks for booking with us, we're glad you enjoyed it. We actually have a kitchen and bathroom remodel planned, hopefully later this year!
Beautiful home that is perfect for family's. We will definitely be visiting again! David is an awesome host! The house is perfectly located to town and trails. Even my 4 year old told us she love it!
We had a wonderful stay! Thank you for sharing your lovely home! It was the perfect location for going out waterfall hunting, Brewery hopping and sightseeing. Breakfast out on the porch was a great start to every morning. Loved being able to run by the local farm market for fresh produce!! And after being out waterfall hiking the Hot Tub was the perfect wind down every night!!! The King bed in the master bedroom was pretty comfy and there were lots of extra linens and towels available. And we loved the extra little desk area off the bedroom, it made a perfect staging area for all of our stuff!!The kitchen and bathrooms could use updates. Loved the old cabinetry, reminds me of my grandma's house, but the countertop, sink fixtures, and floors need some help.And checkout instructions are to wash and dry dishes before leaving, but there was only 1 kitchen towel provided.The couch had almost no support and we kept having to push the cushions back in place. Also one of the chairs on the porch is broken and could be a safety hazard. We did appreciate being able to access a guest account on the TV so we could watch our own TV accounts and not have to log in every day!None of that would deter us from staying here again. We had a wonderful stay and would HIGHLY recommend this house! Side Note: We also recommend the Pisgah Forest Stables for an amazing horse ride! Our trail guide was fantastic!!!

Why they chose this property
Location, location, location. The cottage is right next to a stream. During the summer you can sleep with the windows open hearing the sound of the falling water and have breakfast on the large porch. During the winter curl up in the living room with the fireplace.
