This cottage was immaculately clean and comfortable, in a lovely wooded setting. It was a short drive to the Parkway, vineyards, and Elkin. There were thoughtful amenities and we were able to fix a nice breakfast with the toaster oven, microwave, and coffee maker. Sandy was very responsive and friendly, We would stay here again!

Small cottage that was perfect for 4 adults to rest overnight. We went to a concert at the JVD Winery, so it was extremely convenient for us. Enjoyed the woodsy feel around the cabin. Would definitely stay here again.

Impressed with cabin and how easy it was to access. Would like to see a toaster oven since it doesn't have an oven.

Lovely getaway

We really enjoyed our stay in the Merlot cottage. First, we appreciated that there's a gated entrance to the cottages. It made for a peaceful stay with no through traffic.We enjoyed having both an indoor and outdoor table to choose from when having snacks in the afternoon and breakfast in the morning. We appreciated that the cottage had both a Keurig type coffeemaker and a drip coffeemaker.We are already discussing another visit and possibly renting all three cottages!

Amazing new cabin

Such a quiet cabin in a lovely setting. Large fridge was a plus and comfy sitting area outside and inside. Bathrooms were beautiful. Beds were hard, we had a rough time sleeping. If you dont mind harder beds, you'll be just fine. We looked forward coming back here at night after hiking all day. Spent nights out on the porch until well past dark. Thanks again. The winery is also amazing. Owner was so sweet and attentive. Wine was similar to wine I had in Europe.
