About this property

Cozy Stone Cottage at Lake James and Linville Gorge. Pet friendly!

Our stone cottage, located at the foot of the Linville Gorge was built in another era. We've lovingly updated it creating a comfortable modern home keeping all its charm! Walk out the door to hike some of the most scenic well connected trails in NC. Pickle ball close-by. Come home to a fully stocked kitchen to cook great meals. Enjoy a cozy fireplace. Significant discount for monthly stays. $20 add’l cleaning fee for stays >7 days. Pets welcome. 1 pet is $60 and 2 pay $100 to stay.

The space
Our home was constructed in the late 1940s as a one room stone cottage. Rooms were added on over time. In 2008 we purchased it and did a major renovation, opening it up to family, friends and guests. The inside is mostly stone and wood, a grounding and comforting retreat from a restless world. Two wonderful beds with great mattresses (a queen and a double). We have a cot with a foam mattress for your 5th guest.

The cottage is rustic but comfortable with welcoming wood floors, blackout curtains for a good night's sleep and a new heating/cooling system installed in 2022. Because our interior walls are stone, you may see an occasional bug but regular extermination keeps this to a minimum. Door openings into bedrooms are a bit low - so if you are 6' tall, you will need to duck your head. Many people love this space, but if you are looking for a hotel feel, it is probably best to look for a hotel!

We are so happy to have speedy reliable internet provided by the Starlink satellite system. So, yes, you can work from the cottage!

Guest access
Check out time is 11 am. Check in time is 4 pm.

You will have access to the whole cottage, but for one owners closet.

Doug

Truly a cottage feel, great common area with fireplace, river view from deck outside was awesome. Several areas to choose from to relax in and out of cottage. Walking distance to lake, river, and trails. Great experience, will be going back for sure!

About the host

Hosted by Caroline Butler

Host profile image
We live in Durham, NC and love visiting and sharing our home at the foot of the Linville Gorge. It is my happy place where I feel so relaxed, grounded and truly at home. We hope you will feel the same. Caroline is our wonderful local host who can help you during your stay. Welcome!

Why they chose this property

We love being near one of the cleanest lakes in North Carolina, true joy to swim and kayak in the summer. At the same time we are in the midst of some of the best most scenic well connected hiking trails in the state - accessible by foot from the cottage! We have wonderful welcoming neighbors. Plus we are only 30 minutes from Morganton with great grocery stores, pubs, restaurants and artist studios. Just a wonderful location.

What makes this property unique

Our property stands out because it is made of stone from the Linville River and pine from local forests. Stepping into the cottage, you feel enveloped in nature. Yes modern heating and cooling, high speed internet and fantastic beds make it comfortable for guests to have a home base to enjoy the great outdoors.
