A definite 10/10 rating…cottage and view are amazing! Centrally located to other nearby towns, restaurants, walking trails, and wineries. The hosts were responsive and offered excellent communication. We were sad to leave, but took home many wonderful memories, and are looking forward to returning soon.
We had an amazing stay at the cottage. The property is amazing, great communication and we had everything we needed during our stay. We enjoyed seeing the sunrise reflect on the water and how peaceful the surroundings are. Wish we could have been able to stay longer to enjoy more. Highly recommend!
We loved our stay in the cottage. It was very clean and had everything we needed. We were there for a car show and stayed a few extra days to check out Asheville and Charlotte which were both an hour drive away. The river was too cold to swim but it was quiet and peaceful every morning. We even saw an Otter! We enjoyed the Copper Penny right down the street, as we went two nights in a row. We highly recommend staying here and would go back. Our only complaint was the AC units. We didn’t understand the remotes. Other than that everything was perfect!
We were there on Business and made this trip into a Business/vacation. Relaxing by the river doing some fishing. We did not want to leave. Prefect for all occasions.
