Delightful little spot, very comfortable/clean, and perfect for our needs to attend an event in Spruce Pine. The rocking chairs under the little gazebo where you can listen to the creek were an especially nice treat for some R&R.

Very clean house. Beds were very comfortable. Great communication with host and it's everything they say it is. I really enjoyed my weekend here and will definitely book this place again.

It was the oerfect place. W we teally enjoyed it. When we got ready to leave my said "I'm acually gonna miss this house". We travel fir work a lot, so forher to say that, it means a lot. We loved the gazebo with the rocking chairs by the streem. Kitchen had everything we needed plus extra. The owners were easy to get a long with, and went out of there way to help. I would definitely stay again if I'm ever in the area again.

Amazing Experience!

Absolutely loved our stay at yellow mountain cottage! Check-in was super easy, the house itself had just about everything you could need in terms of toiletries, linens, towels, and spices/cooking tools, which was really nice to not have to worry about. It was very clean and upkept, and such a cozy little home. We had so much fun in the creek, the scenery was beautiful. 10/10 would recommend!

Clean Remodeled Home

This home was clean (especially for a home in the mountains). The beds were comfy, and the bathroom was updated nicely.The Keurig was a nice touch.Communication with the property manager was excellent through the app. I inquired about checkout procedures and received a prompt reply.Five stars because I definitely would stay here again, although I would bring simple amenities like paper towels and hand towels.
