This cottage was perfect for our vacation! It was a quiet and secluded place for relaxing on the porch, with a great view of the mountains. The house had everything we needed and was a pleasure to come back to at the end of a day of exploring. We would definitely go back again. Thank you!

Mini Vacation

This is a great property to stay at. The view is great. The home is clean and well stocked. It’s such a relaxing and peaceful place. We absolutely enjoyed it. We will most definitely be booking in the fall to see the spectacular view that I’m sure it is.

Beautiful view in quiet, remote area.

My husband and I were looking for a place to totally relax, away from the hustle and bustle and we found it. High up with a gorgeous Mountain View. Very peaceful and calming. The house is very well maintained and the owner, Michelle, was very responsive. It was a pleasure staying there.

Perfect getaway spot

We loved staying here. It is centrally located to some great hiking spots. If you get a chance check out the Pinnacle Trail located in Sylva! This home is super cozy. It is stocked with plenty of blankets for cozy evenings, and the kitchen is stocked fully as well with all of your kitchen needs. The porch is lovely to sit in the rocking chairs and enjoy the beautiful Mountain View!

If you’re looking to get away on a mountain side retreat with a wonderful view, this is it. The mornings are beautiful with the sunrise behind the mountain you’re on; you get to watch the sun come up and light up the valley. This is the perfect place to just get away and relax. If you have young ones, the yard isn’t very big; you’re literally on the side of a mountain, but the porch wraps around 3/4 of the house and is very roomy. We loved it as just getting away was the point of our trip. I’ll miss the morning cup of coffee on the front porch watching the sun light up the valley. We will definitely return. We went into Dillsboro, some nice shops, priced for tourists, but they’re a tourist town I guess. We ate at the Beech Mountain Diner, it was fantastic, reasonably priced.

So Peaceful

This place is amazing with beautiful views and only the sounds of nature. The drive up is also very scenic and just far enough out from the quaint little town of Sylva and Dillsboro. The house was very clean and had all of the amenities that we needed. Great communication with Michelle. Would definitely recommend!
