Didn’t use any of the amenities listed, but directions for their use was clear and if one had issues, the owner’s contact number was available.I liked its location. I was there to do some hiking and it was located close to what I wanted to do. It was also a short walk to downtown and the college.I’d stay there again.
This was such a great spot, all the amenities you could want, our pup FJ was super stoked having a fenced in yard for zoomies. The porch is delightful! Will definitely stay again:)))
This is a lovely place with a private hot tub. We love the convenient location to downtown and to mountain bike trails. We would totally rent this place again.
Great little get away in Brevard! Nice fenced in yard for our dog and the cottage was a little bigger than we were expecting, which was a nice surprise! Front porch and hot tub are great for relaxing
Cozy, clean and convenient location to explore Brevard and surrounding areas. We appreciated how dog-friendly the accommodations are for our 3 pups. Highly recommend this place.
We have a wonderful stay in the little red cottage, it was clean and beautiful, we walked to downtown Brevard, a great yard for our pups…comfy couch and bed, we hope to be back!!
Adorable little cottage with super Brevard/Pisgah vibe. Fabulous yard good for dogs. Nice hang out porch. Did have small issue with garbage disposal and running out of propane but was handled. Would stay again.
As advertised, this place is dog friendly. The fenced in yard provided plenty of space for our dog to stretch her legs; the hosts provide bags to clean up after your pet, a blanket for the furniture, etc. It is also beautifully maintained and comfortable for humans! Situated at the back of a long driveway it allows you to be in town but still have privacy and quiet.
What a great cottage! Property pictures and description are true to listing. .Well equipped to meet any traveler’s need. Communication with host was excellent! Amazing location and looking forward to our next visit

I am Gareth and I own the Session Chalet. I am a long-time Brevard local. I am a professional whitewater kayaker, avid mountain biker, skier, and fly fisherman. I have 2 other homes in Brevard that I rent. My goal is to make these houses truly unique and to provide my guests with a very special experience while visiting my favorite place on earth. Make sure to check out my other Brevard listings: THE RED BUNGALOW and THE RED COTTAGE. I live with Rhodo, my 30 lb. pup, either in Brevard, NC or Victor, Idaho, when not traveling for work or adventures. In addition to running these rentals, I also operate SESSION STUDIOS, my outdoor adventure videography business.
