About the host

Hosted by Marti Wells

Host profile image
Originally purchased for a summer getaway. When we retired to Saluda and built our new home, we kept the cottage for family and friends to use when visiting. Later, we decided to open it for short time rentals, so we spruced it up, bought new beds and here we are.

Why they chose this property

We love Saluda! We live here and love sharing with visitors this special place called Saluda.

What makes this property unique

Short easy walk to Main Street Saluda.
Located in a quiet neighborhood, on a dead-end street, we are one of the few truly dog friendly accommodations in Saluda....and we have a yard.
Many of our guests love the deck where they can enjoy their morning coffee or a cocktail while grilling at dinner time. Deck is designed with gate to allow furry guests free access with their humans. We have an extensive summer garden and share the bounty with our guests...they are welcome to pick their own fruits and veggies...can't get fresher than that.
