Gorgeous Get Away

What an absolutely, well maintained property! The unit itself was across a gorgeous creek and had all the necessities to make our trip relaxing. (That tub!!) The location was convenient to Asheville and Lake Junaluska for us, yet secluded enough to allow us to relax and enjoy the natural setting.

Perfect off the beaten path getaway

The cottage was immaculate. We really enjoyed shooting on the patio listening to the Pigeon River running right out front while we were drinking our coffee every morning.

Clean and great location!

I initially choose this property due to the location on the river. It’s literally across the street so you can hear the water and see everything from the front porch. It’s very close to Waynesville and area towns. For a close eat we recommend the Haywood cafe. Very friendly staff and good food at a reasonable price. Place is very clean and the host is thoughtful and communicates well.

Simply Amazing!

We had the best time and the location was exactly what we wanted. The house is positioned right across the street from a beautiful river and is the perfect remote but not too far from town location. The area is beautiful. The house is great - everything you could need and more. You can tell the detail and love the host put into the home, there wasn’t anything we needed that wasn’t there. They were so sweet and made us feel at home. We loved all the details and things they set our for our visit. Everything was amazing!

The perfect quiet romantic getaway!

The cottage has a great kitchen, bathroom, comfortable bed/bedroom and a wonderful host. There is pretty river just across the road if you want to hang out on the front deck. It is not far from Waynesville if you want to shop or dine out. I would gladly stay there again.

Excellent Cottage in Clyde NC

If you are looking for a quiet retreat then this is the place for you! The Pigeon River that is in front of the cottage is amazing! You can hear the river from the cottage. The cottage is very clean and the furniture is comfortable. The owners are amazing and are very easy to work with and very easy to contact. This is an amazing family and are locals to the area! We brought our small dog to the cottage and the owners had special treats waiting for her! We are already planning another trip in October for this cottage. You will not be disappointed.

Natural and serene setting

My husband, teen daughter and dog stayed here for 3 days in April. The decor was charming and the kitchen and living area were spacious. However, our favorite spot was the front deck, listening to and watching the river. We were amazed when we saw a bald eagle visiting the river a couple of times! The abundant windows let in lots of light. There is a road between the cottage and the river but the minimal amount of vehicles was not intrusive, in our opinion. The owner was very courteous, prompt with responses, and dedicated to assuring we were enjoying our stay, which we definitely did. And pet-friendly is always a plus! We would love to stay again.
