We felt so welcomed and at home. Everything was so clean and we enjoyed the complimentary waters and snacks. Bed was so comfortable and the neighborhood was ideal for a peaceful, restful stay. An easy drive to downtown Hickory and many restaurant choices.

This quiet little gem was tucked away in a lovely neighborhood with it's own parking. It was beautiful and larger than pictures showed. The bed was amazingly comfortable. It had everything we needed and not far from Union Square. The screen room was a plus also. We would definitely stay here again.

Home away from home

This truly was a home away from home. So clean and welcoming. We were able to spend time with family and come back and relax. The screened in porch was perfect for morning coffee. Dennis and Catherine went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed.

Home away from home

The apartment is absolutely delightful.!We were surprised first to see it was behind a big home-being from NYC we had assumed an apartment building.But the apartment was peaceful, very clean and surrounded by a beautiful property and great outdoor covered patio.(perfect for storing our bikes).Catherine and Dennis (The owners) live in the front part of the house but you never hear a thing. They were very generous providing us with snacks, water and toiletries. We enjoyed walking around the beautiful neighborhood with our dog. A short drive to the town of hickory was also a nice surprise. We got to enjoy live activities, farmers market, shops , restaurants, art galleries, and city walkways. We would definitely stay here again on our next visit to visit family!

Perfect, super clean retreat!

From start to finish the communication from the hosts was quick and easy. They were great about offering to problem solve with me when I needed some flexibility with my plans. The place is spotless and the private screened in porch was serene. The place is bigger than expected so lots of room to move around and the bed was incredibly comfortable, even down to the pillows. I would def recommend it! You won’t be disappointed.
