This was our second stay at Stone Cottage - everything was wonderful, as expected. This is our favorite place to stay when visiting the Chimney Rock area. Thank you again to our fantastic hosts!!!
The cottage is well-stocked and a perfect weekend getaway. Everything was neat , clean, and comfortable. We will definitely stay there again when we’re back in the area!
This is such a wonderful place to base out of. The hosts are very attentive and thoughtful. Nice views, and very quiet at night. Will definitely come back.
Host thought of everything, games and dvds for kids, snacks, coffee assortment, grilling supplies, saw deer on our stay, lovely little quiet place, would highly recommend for families.
The Cozy Cottage was very clean, exceptionally well stocked with essentials, had a nice view and was just darn cute. Great communication with host. Really looking forward to visiting again.
It was a beautiful cottage on the mountain. Very quiet and had everything we needed.
