Very cute and clean cottage house. Right in the heart of town and a 2-5min walk to several EXCELLENT local restaurants/pubs with a very cool vibe and full of friendly people. We absolutely plan on staying here again. Double car parking spot is shared but second car parking could be one block over on main street.

This cottage is beautifully decorated, with a charming mixture of antiques and modern furniture. The bedding is high end - very comfy. We loved the quiet and privacy and the fact that restaurants, etc. were 2 blocks around the corner. Outstanding from every point of view!

Fantastic State Fair/Lewisburg Adventure

This cute little home was in a great location for our State Fair and Lewisburg adventure! Very well and thoughtfully appointed, even with small extras like snacks and extra toiletry items. The fire pit came in great for the cool evenings. Quiet road but on the edge of town. Would definitely stay here again!

Excellent home in downtown Lewisburg!

We stayed here for a wedding. The home had two very nice bedrooms and one bathroom. It had great outdoor space and was recently updated. One parking spot to use while staying there. It was exactly what we needed and very fairly priced.

Lovely house in a perfect location

My husband and I came to Lewisburg to bike the Greenbrier River Trail. We did that and then some! The house was lovely, within walking distance to all kinds of shops, restaurants and entertainment and equipped with everything we needed. Anna was a wonderful host and provided some really good restaurant recommendations. I would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful, spotless property in a wonderful location

We stayed at this beautiful cottage while riding the Greenbriar River Trail and Jackson River Trail. The cottage was spotless. The location is wonderful-you can walk to many different restaurants. We did not shop, but there were plenty of interesting shops in the area as well. Anna was great to work. I highly recommend the cottage if you are staying in Lewisburg. We will definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by anna gehrken

Host profile image
Hi there! I'm Anna and I've loved to play house my whole life! Perhaps this is why I had a wonderful career in the furniture industry. I love design, art, antiques and beautiful linens and this included monograms, a nod to my southern upbringing.

Why they chose this property

This cottage is a little unusual in that it's very private, yet very safe and right downtown!!! Once you arrive, you can enjoy a wonderful downtown Lewisburg experience just a few steps away. People often ask "how did you find this cute little spot"? The answer was that "it found me"! I went looking for a small house which we could use off season and where our son could stay while attending medical school. People loved this little "Doll house" and would knock on the door to inquire about staying here and,......as they say....the rest is history!!

What makes this property unique

As I've said already, this house is unique in many ways, but its privacy and location just can't be beat. It's like it's just a little Doll House is calling your name!

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
