Lovely hosts who live on a nice side road. Sweet spot not far from Hanging Rock State Park. My 7 year old daughter loved the two small dogs on the property, the zip line, and the tree swing. The outdoor fire pit was perfect for roasting hot dogs in the evening. The screened in porch was great for morning breakfast time and sipping tea. Bathroom is small but does the job. Bed was comfy... All in all a great time!

Sweet Place

This cabin was perfect for my little 2 night vacation. As an artist and naturalist, I found subject matter for sketching, and serenity for relaxing.

The property was beautiful and the cabin was thoughtfully decorated and well maintained. It was a great touchdown spot ahead of my trip to Hanging Rock. Eric made check in easy and was a great host with great recomendations for food and hiking. I was only there 1 night by myself but would love to come back with the family for a longer visit.

Peaceful little cabin

My wife and I stayed two nights here and it was very peaceful and quiet. The cabin is behind the owners house but they have put blinds in the cabin and also have a privacy fence between the house and the cabin so we did have privacy. They provide you with a remote to open the gate so you can come and go as you please. The cabin is small but perfect for a couple just looking to get away. We brought a puzzle and assembled it during our stay.

Wonderful stay, comfortable bed and many thoughtful extras!

We stayed because we hiked Pilot Mountain and visited the hanging rock state park. It was close to both places and also the Jolo winery. It was our birthdays and the owners put sparklers and two little cakes in our room!

Cute and comfy little house. Thoughtfully prepared for guests with even tasty snacks for guests. Beautiful area as well and close to Hanging Rock state park. Only challenge was the small bathroom. But the overall package was worth it!

Mountain hideaway

Owners were wonderful. Cottage is quaint and definitely would return. The gazebo had a great view of the mountain and sunset. The property itself had gardens and water features and made us feel like we had found the eacape we were looking for. When asked for any special considerations, the owners went above and beyond to make our stay very special. Would highly recommend!!

Sisters' getaway

The house was small but just right for us two to stay for 2 nights. After a hike to hanging rock, it was nice to have a great place to sleep. The bathroom is small and I'm a big girl, but it worked, Lol. We road our motorcycles and the first night we were too tired and didn't feel like going out but thanks to the host they left some trick that tides us over until the next day. Thanks Eric and family

I was looking for somewhere to relax and wind down and that's exactly what I got! This adorable cabin is tucked away on private property and it's fresh and clean and well cared for. If you're worried about the dogs....Don't Be; I actually wished that they would've interacted with me a bit more (LOL). The homeowners are very welcoming and greet you at the gate to give the rundown and they genuinely welcome you to walk the property freely. Anytime that I return to the area I will be checking if this cabin is availability first.

Quiet beautiful place in the country

The property was very clean. The room air conditioner kept the space comfortable. The bathroom is very tiny. The toilet is low flow (plunger in the closet of bedroom space). The bed is very comfortable and bedroom space is large thanks to the vaulted ceiling. The counters in the kitchen space are high and would be difficult for anyone under 5 ' to use. Overall we loved the space and would stay again if we had a high profile vehicle. To get to the cottage you drive through the back yard and cross a shallow ditch. My Camry did ok on the dry grass and ditch. It would have had trouble if it had rained. The parking area is grass as well. There was no pictures of the parking area. The description does not mention driving through the yard. I would not have stayed if I knew that. My car does not go well on wet grass and ditches.
