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.

Perfect Girls’ Getaway

The property was even better than we expected. Everything was spotless and comfortable. Loved that there was coffee there as well as shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. We were able to pack lightly and didn’t have to buy anything when we arrived. Took a nap and had morning coffee on the front porch bed swing. Walked to downtown and restaurants. Perfect stay!

Lovely Cabin and Convenient Location

The Red Cabin was a perfect getaway for me, my hubs and our 2 dogs. The front porch was a fun spot for hanging out. Izzy and Scout loved the fenced in yard. Restaurants, downtown Brevard and hikes through the shady Pisgah Forest were minutes away. The owner was responsive and helpful. We’ll be back!

Legit one of our favorite stays. Coziest and precious cottage. Loved the outdoor swing and yard for our dog. Everything you need inside and outside Mother Nature surrounded this place with glory…hikes not to be outdone and waterfalls beyond the beyonds. Music 2 blocks away almost nightly at 185 Kings St. Just a perfect place!! Thank you. And great communication!🙌

Lovely cottage in a great location

We (two adults, 2 kids, 2 dogs) stayed in the red cottage over a long weekend after picking our oldest up from camp. It was an absolutely lovely house, and the owners were a delight to interact with. I would recommend this property to just about everyone out there; it's not large, but it's beautifully appointed, and the fenced-in front yard was great for our pups.
