About this property

Welcome to the Foothills of North Carolina and our little house in the woods! The home of white squirrels and country life, we are located at the bottom of White Oak Mountain. Only 5 minutes from I-26 and Columbus NC, yet we are tucked away in nature.

Pets (up to 2 maximum) are welcome. We do charge a pet fee so be sure to include them in your reservation. If we see you have pets and have not included them in the reservation, we will charge $200 to the card on file. You are responsible for any damages that may occur while you are here with us. This includes but isn’t limited to any bedding, furniture, carpets, scratches on floors, etc and any extra cleaning cost that may need to be required. Please take your pets with you if you leave or keep them kenneled inside in your absence.

We have added a level 2 EV charger! Please let me know if you will be using it for your vehicle. It is ONLY for our paying guests. No friends and family, it is reserved only for those in the reservation.

If you’re interested, be sure to look for the white squirrels while you’re here. They are known to show their presence in the morning outside our little house in the woods!

This spacious 1 Bedroom -1 Bath apartment is resting on a slope surrounded by trees on the back side. You will take the steps up the side to the entry, step inside and relax! There is also a sleeper sofa in the living room if you need the extra bed.

Outside offers a place for fire pit if the weather allows for that. Bring your hammock and string it up between trees if you wish. We have nature outside the back door!

For the more adventurous, we are only a short 10 - 15 minute drive to the top of white Oak Mountain where you will have panoramic views.

Whether you are passing through and need a place to stay for the night or want to stay for a week, We hope you will find this place a resting place or a somewhere that you can set aside the worries of life for just a bit and relax!

Quaint & modern apartment over garage

I was in town for a horse show at Harmon Field and this apartment was perfect for my stay! With it only about 7 minutes away from the show grounds and Main Street Tryon it was a perfect location! It was clean, spacious and the owners went above and beyond with snacks, coffee, breakfast food etc. I would definitely stay here again when in town.

Wonderful hospitality - Exceptional Home

From the moment we entered, we felt welcomed and at home. This home is well equipped. We lacked for nothing. Appreciated the food provided so we could have breakfast before heading out for the day. The homemade granola and fruit was terrific. Our questions were answered promptly. The checkout process was easy. The home is exceptionally comfortable. It was awesome seeing the white squirrels. We strongly recommend this for your stay in Columbus. You won't be disappointed. We definitely will plan to stay here again when we return next year.

Simple Serenity

In the words of Goldilocks… “this one is just right!” Though my stay was brief, this little cottage in the woods gave me the perfect yin for all the yang in my life. Hopefully, my next visit will be a bit longer.

Considerately set up!

You can tell the owners have spent time thinking about their guests and ways to make them feel comfortable. They had a variety of staples available (variety of sugars, creamer, coffee) and small items (Ziplock bags and makeup wipes) that just went that extra step in making you feel comfortable. They even had extra little snacks for our enjoyment that really made us feel valued. There was a nice deck, a fire pit, and swing that I wish we had had more time to enjoy. I would recommend this stay without any hesitations! Very comfortable.
