About this property
Cottage Haven-cozy, clean, comfortable close to DT
KING size bed in master!
Located minutes from downtown Greenville, the Swamp Rabbit Trail, Furman University, and Travelers Rest, this beautifully furnished & fully renovated, 2BR/2BA home will make your stay in the upstate of SC truly special.
A little bit of background...Cottage Haven is a result of a family dream...as we traveled, we were often frustrated and always thought of things we would do to make a space better for visitors. So when the opportunity arose for us to purchase and renovate this cute little house, we jumped in all the way. One of our sons does remodeling, one installed hardwood floors, our daughter is an Interior Designer, and I (Chris) have a local cleaning service- after a year and a half, we were ready for our first guests.
Now our goal is to make every guest feel like they're the first to stay. When we say "fully stocked", we mean that we provide little things to make your time with us more comfortable, we pay close attention to detail, and we strive to keep all things in 'like new' condition.
*An additional note:
Some guests have mentioned that the neighborhood is a bit “run down”. It is definitely a lower middle class area, but many of the neighbors have been in residence for decades (including those on either side of CH- in fact, Ms Margaret has lived in the same house next door since the 1960’s!) ) and they do upkeep their yards and homes and look out for one another. We have come to know several of the neighbors and have always felt safe, even late at night. While some homes a block or two away are not as well kept, there are also a few new homes being built (Greenville is growing rapidly). Additionally, there is a street lamp on the edge of our property so it well-lit at night.
So please come and enjoy your morning coffee on the spacious covered deck off the kitchen overlooking the large, fenced-in back yard. Or relax with friends & family around the fire pit or under the ambient lighting that surrounds the deck roof.
In consideration for all of our guests, the home is a non-smoking space and pet-free.
