This lovely, pet friendly home is clean, incredibly well stocked for cooking, and has a beautiful outside space that is perfect for relaxing and/or containing your pup. This is my favorite place to stay when we visit the area for biking. This stay was especially enjoyable this visit with all the flowers in bloom! Many thanks!

Fantastic cottage

We loved staying at this beautiful cottage. The host thought of every detail to make it a great stay. The kitchen was well stocked.Location was great, maybe 20 minutes to Hendersonville. Our dog loved the fenced in yard. Beds were very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.

Cutest house!

We throughly enjoyed our stay at April’s cottage. So nice to have the large fenced in yard for our dog, and a dog park nearby! Also enjoyed taking walks around the lake, and visiting nearby Flat Rock and Hendersonville. Great central location for exploring the area!

Best place EVER to stay as Hostess has thought of Everything. It’s now our regular home to stay with our tiny poodle girls who adore the home and especially the beautiful grass in back yard. Quiet area but close to larger City. Will of course be back in 2026…

Indeed a happy place

This is a great property right outside of Hendersonville where you can really get away from it all! The lake nearby is a great place to take a walk or run in the mornings. The house is more than we could have hoped for- fenced in yard is great for dogs. We hope to be back!

Quiet Neighborhood

Listing is accurate. We found everything we could possibly need. Nice park a short distance away. The screened porch is a nice touch and the fenced yard was great for our dog. Definitely recommend this property to others traveling with pets.

Checks all the boxes!

So charming and peaceful. Our stay was too short. We had planned activities but wished for more time to stay at the cottage. So well renovated and decorated. Very comfortable. All the extras were a plus. Looking forward to a longer stay here.

As on previous stay..like HOME away from Home…..We plan to be here every Spring & Fall.

My Happy Place became OUR HAPPY PLACE.. My first visit was solo with my two toy poodles. The yard is their favorite.. owner, April thought of everything. Quiet neighborhood and fenced yard and several comfortable places outside ( even if raining, cover picnic area), so you are not limited to home and front porch .We are very grateful that MHP survived Helene. Great to visit small businesses to help their Recovery efforts ..

Lake summit Cottage

This cottage was so well equipped and comfortable, I will definitely stay there again if I visit the area. The kitchen is a chef's kitchen with sharp knives, good cookware, and all the necessary appliances. There is a great fire pit with a smores kit. The owners do a great job putting special touches together - pickleball kit and games, charcoal for the grill, and a lovely front porch. We were there in the heat of the summer and it was a cool sanctuary.

The entire property was clean, well stocked, and well decorated. The kitchen was one of the best stocked we’ve ever seen. The backyard is fenced, which is great for pets. The deck has plenty of seating, some of which is covered. We enjoyed the fire pit and the supply of wood. The checkout process was simple and asked very little of us. We stayed for three weeks and would happily return. April was quick to respond to any communications we sent, none of which were about any issues with the house.

Best little Cottage home ever....

I have learned to find what better fits myself and my "liddles" (toy poodles). Having a fully fenced yard to hang out with them with good outdoor setting and peaceful neighborhood was just the the perfect fit. It was good also to stay a week and will be returning in October with hubby and pups. Near enough to family as well. Hope to come every Spring and Fall from Florida. The owner thought of everything and was the perfect Hostess with perfect hospitality service and care.

Solo trip with the pup

My Happy Place was the perfect spot for a solo trip with my pup. April was the BEST hostess. She had every detail covered in this cute little cottage. The fenced backyard was perfect and the location was great. The screened front porch was perfect for a rainy day. I could not ask for a better place or hostess. Next time, I guess I’ll let my husband tag along. Ha! There’s even room for another couple.

Girls getaway

I have stayed at many VRBO properties in the past but I must say this was absolutely the best place I've ever stayed. I have stayed in newer homes but none could compare to this home and host, April. This was the cutest, warmest home away from home. It is all the extras April does that makes your stay so wonderful. The home is absolutely the cleanest I have ever stayed in. Thank you, thank you April for your wonderful hospitality and all the extras provided, and most of all for sharing your beautiful home. I plan to return again, hopefully before this year ends. Thanks April
