About this property

Cozy cottage nestled in the woods near WILLSTELLA Farm Venue

Cute two-bedroom cottage nestled in the woods beside a beautiful romantic wedding venue! Sleeps 4 comfortable but can supply you with a blow-up bed on legs if we know prior to check in for an additional $40. There is a couch in the sunroom off of the master bedroom that would be suitable for younger adults. House has an open den with gas logs in the fireplace! Nice wrap-around deck overlooking the wooded lot. You are close to downtown but feel like you are way out in the country once you get settled into this cozy cottage.

Our host Angie was great. Amenities were unbelievable. The outside deck had lots of furniture and provided both sun and shade and a heater! The beds were incredibly comfortable and plush. The sun room was a surprise bonus. Beautifully stocked kitchen items including coffee, etc. Bathrooms stocked with every basic need and extras. Deer and squirrel and birds entertained us on the deck. Highly recommended. Thank you Angie!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this clean, extremely tastefully decorated home with any and everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. My family came for the day and we were able to cook and have a great meal together. The linens were top notch and the sunroom off the master was so great to sit and enjoy nature. Books, games and plenty of things to do. In my opinion the best VRBO we’ve ever stayed in. I hope to come back and enjoy it again. Comfortable beds and furniture.

This cottage couldn’t be more charming! The location was absolutely perfect for us while attending a show at the Benton Convention Center—just minutes away, yet it truly felt like a peaceful retreat in the country. We were only about five minutes from great dining and shopping in Kernersville, which made everything so convenient.The décor is gorgeous and thoughtfully done, creating such a warm and inviting atmosphere. Even the college kids with us commented multiple times on how much they loved the house—which says a lot!The host has truly thought of everything. From welcoming touches throughout the home to helpful extras like curling irons, cologne, and even fingernail clippers, it felt like nothing was overlooked. The sunroom was a favorite spot—perfect for relaxing with one of the many books available in the house.On top of all that, the host was incredibly responsive and quick to answer any questions. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would absolutely return!

The property is gorgeous! It looks just like the photos (picture perfect). The cottage offers such a warm and cozy feeling. The only thing I would let others know. If you aren’t a nature person or have a pet you may be spooked by the dear crossings. But 10 out 10, I recommend.

This cottage was wonderful. My husband and college Sr. Daughter stayed here while she attended a music conference in Winston-Salem. It was about 15 minutes from the conference center. I was so glad I picked this property. It was super clean and extremely quiet. On Saturday night they had a wedding across the field. We could see all the lights which was a nice touch, and the guest were far enough away that they did not bother us one bit. I was not looking forward to a busy weekend of running my daughter around but this cottage help to make the weekend enjoyable. You will not be sorry if stay here.

About the host

Hosted by Angie Galloway Brown

Host profile image
We have lived in Kernersville for 50 years. We bought the Smith Farm in 2013 and decided in 2015 to turn the old farmhouse and barn into a beautiful wedding venue and we named it after the owner's Will & Stella Smith ( WILLSTELLA FARM). We have hosted over 150 weddings so far. We were privileged to be able to buy the cottage from one of the siblings that were born in the farmhouse. This cottage is nestled in the woods far enough from the venue but close enough to feel the magic of taking you back in time to when porch sitting and relaxation was more common. We are sure you feel very rejuvenated after your stay at the VANSTELLA COTTAGE. The cathedral ceiling and gas logs in the den create a great room for hanging out and chatting and the wrap-around deck overlooking the wooded lot adds another great conversation area. Both of our statement bedrooms will definitely give you a good night's rest with lush linens.

Why they chose this property

It's a very peaceful lot and house.

What makes this property unique

Romantic feeling in a wooded lot with beautiful luxury bedrooms. House is close to downtown and in the middle of the triad. I know you will enjoy your stay here.
