About this property

Sweet Garden House in Hot Springs. Hot tub, garden, grill, deck, dog friendly.

The Garden House is a beautiful and spacious property featuring an open layout that feels comfortable and well equipped for groups to enjoy a vacation in Hot Springs. The home is a 5 minute walk to downtown Hot Springs. All of our reviews so far have been 10/10.

The home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms with an open concept living room and dining area with a table to seat 6. The living room has a comfortable sectional couch and smart, big screen tv, ready for you to watch a favorite movie with family. Cozy leather reading chairs adorned with blankets sit by the front window inviting quiet time or a space to play games (also stocked in the home). Wi-fi is high speed fiber optic..

Our kitchen is well stocked with kitchen items as well as complementary coffee.
Outdoors, there's a sun deck with dining and a market umbrella, a hot tub and a beautiful mountain view and cottage garden featuring herbs and flowers.

There are 2 clean and tasteful bathrooms, one of which has a soaking tub.

During the cold months there's a propane heater for your use.

The kitchen has all the equipment you’ll need to cook dinner or make sandwiches before you hike. (Drip coffee maker, blender, microwave, stove and plenty of cookware and plates.) Outdoor propane grill comes with grilling tools and great views to look at while you cook. Cut some herbs from the cutting garden to make dinner taste even better or take a few flower clippings from our perennial flower garden for your dining room table.

Our guests love to sit out on the front porch rocking chairs where you can watch the world go by and take in a glorious Hot Springs sunset and the mountains.

Soak in the outdoor hot tub with your group whilst you look at the stars or take in the greenery surrounding you. Then have your evening meal outside on the back deck under the market umbrella . Outdoor cafe lighting offers evening ambience.

Washer/dryer. Parking for 2 cars. Additional parking available on the street if needed.

Great Experience, beautiful property

The grounds feel resort like, the house is very clean and well kept. Little welcome gifts were a nice touch, cut flowers everywhere, super relaxing and enjoyable. Close to ashville and gatlinsburg, enjoyable restaurants down town, we would return.

Great Stay

The house was great. Plenty of space and very clean. Unlike most VRBO's I've stayed at this house had a great kitchen and was stocked well with what we needed to cook and eat. They also made it super easy to check in earlier than listed.

Birthday Weekend

We had an amazing stay for my husbands birthday! The house was just as it was listed on VRBO. We had such easy access to the Main Street in Hot Springs. Great beers and food at Pillow Top. We loved the Smokey Mountain Diner as well. We will be going back to stay again.

Best Vacation Rental Ever!

We travel frequently and have stayed in numerous vacation rentals from small apartments, to large expansive homes. This rental was by far the best we have experienced. The home was lovely and immaculately clean, and the hosts provided the perfect necessities for a convenient and welcoming stay (bathrobes, wine, coffee, toiletries, hot tub towels, etc.). I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a wonderful place to stay in Hot Springs!

Great Garden House

The house was very nice and Sara was always a text away if needed. The house had anything we needed , and we appreciated the coffee and wine that was there for us. A nice place and I would come back with a larger group and try and rent both the Garden house and the Magnolia House behind it.

We LOVED this property! It is just precious inside & had everything we could have needed. Beautiful, crisp, and ultra clean. We sat on the back deck most of our mornings & admired the gorgeous garden. Fantastic stay, close to the main part of town, and excellent host. Thank you!!!

Wedding Guest

We chose this house because we needed a one level home. We were in Weaverville, NC for a wedding and wanted to stay in the area afterward. This house was as described, the management was communicative, and we were accommodated very well. Beautiful gardens with produce and flowers, a complimentary bottle of wine, and excellent response time for any question that we had. BRAVO!

Beautiful property in a great mountain town

We stayed at the Garden House in spring of 2022 as a jumping off point for a father/son backbacking section hike of the AT. My wife stayed at the house through the week while we were off in the woods. The cottage is part of a larger property containing gardens and a mansion. The house has been renovated and is clean and modern, while keeping a historical feel. My wife is self-declared clean freak, and she was VERY impressed with the cleanliness. The house was sparkly white just like the photos in the profile. There were fresh flowers throughout the house from the property gardens, and numerous complimentary goodies. Shops, restaurants, and breweries are a short walk either out the front door, or nice walking path off the back of the property over a pedestrian bridge. This is not a big town, but has alot of character and friendly people. Sara the owner was extremely available and friendly!

About the host

Hosted by Sara Eavenson

Host profile image
Hi! I'm Sara, a VRBO host - hospitality lover, Mama, Wife, Meditator, Traveler. I'm loving hosting our guests in Hot Springs, NC. It's my absolute pleasure to invite you in to one of our homes where I hope you will feel comfortable, happy and relaxed.

Why they chose this property

The Garden House is a feel good property. It has a great feel as a solo traveler or for a family or group of friends. You can walk to town in a matter of minutes and yet it feels secluded and away from everything at the same time. Inside, the decor is tasteful and comfortable - clean lines, no clutter, attention to detail and cleanliness. Outside, the garden, deck and hot tub combination make a great place to enjoy lazy afternoons or evenings after a great day of hiking.

What makes this property unique

Close to town, restaurants and amenities. Attentive owners. Great wifi. Hot Tub!!
