Great cottage right on Main St

We stayed here while moving our daughter into her college dorm and were very happy with every aspect of the property. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. The location is convenient to everything in the area. Communication with the owner was pleasant. We will definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay. It is about 20 minutes to TIEC for horse shows and served us well. It is comfortable and well-equipped, not to mention clean.

Family event

Property was excellent on all counts! Clean, comfortable, and convenient. We were in town to deal with family events and it was a perfect spot to end each day in a relaxing manner. The host was so accommodating!! We needed to extend because of unforeseen issues and it couldn't have been easier. Definitely recommend if you're considering a stay in Forest City.

It had the feel of an old house that had been excellently remodeled. The wood floors looked original in style yet the counter tops were very modern as you can see. Lori made me feel loved in that her gift of hospitality shined. All of the extras made it feel like we were staying with family who tried to make us feel welcomed. This is definitely in a city setting but it was worth the drive for us to get to the events that we attended in another city. The places I saw that were closer to the events we were attending didn't have the good feeling that Lori's place did and in person, I felt that what I saw and perceived online was true to what I got. I would definitely consider staying in the same place next time I visited.

Only one suggestion for improvement. The back bedroom faces the rear parking lot, which has a good and strong light for security. However, the windows in that bedroom are not light blocking. Therefore it’s difficult to sleep in the room. Otherwise the property was nice.

Our family has stayed at the cottage several times now and it’s been great every time. The cleanliness and amenities of the house are second to none! Lori is a wonderful host who is responsive and available for anything needed. Forest City is a charming little town and we love to stay at the cottage when we visit our daughter at Gardner-Webb. ‘Sko Dawgs!

Just what I needed

Such a clean, cozy place. It was the perfect size for me. I really enjoyed how close it was to a grocery store, and the main downtown area with a cute bakery and a few other local spots. This little place is exactly what I was looking for while visiting Tryon!

Home away from home

We really enjoyed our stay in Forest City. Our place was spacious, clean and beautiful. We came up to visit a friend and also got to go to Chimney Rock and Lake Lure. Very convenient to all. Met the owner Lori and she was so friendly. Only wish would be 2 more chairs at the island. Would stay again and recommend!!

Wonderful Cottage

My husband and I stayed at the cottage for 4 nights. We were in the area for an event at the Tryon Equestrian Center about 20 minute drive away. The cottage is very tastefully decorated, nicely updated and clean. There are restaurants a few short blocks away and a walking trail nearby. We will definitely stay again.
