This cottage is darling! Spacious, bright, beautifully decorated! We enjoyed the screened porch where we watched TV one afternoon. The bed was really comfortable, and kitchen had everything we needed. The hosts were so accommodating. The photos can’t do justice to how lovely this cottage is in real life.

This was the most wonderful place to stay. It was decorated for Christmas, and it was so warm and welcoming. I am a designer, and my husband is a custom home builder. We noticed right away the beauty of the cottage, warmth and everything you could want or need for your stay. Our host was great! We will stay again and highly recommend this VRBO

It’s clear that so much thought and love went into building and decorating this space to make guests feel truly comfortable.The cottage was spotless, cozy, and full of charming touches that made it feel like a home away from home. The host was incredibly responsive and kind—helping us with any questions that we had and even giving us a much-needed donkey visit -which was such a fun and unexpected treat!This was the perfect getaway for our girls weekend. We left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and already dreaming about our next visit. Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a peaceful and welcoming escape!

This cottage is amazing. If you're into hiking and scenic views, this is the place for a couple to get away. The kitchen was well kept with plenty of tools for cooking. The cottage was beautiful and very serene. So many state parks nearby for hiking. We didn't even go into Greenville as there would've been huge crowds due to fall fest. 10 out of 10.

Rented this amazingly beautiful cottage for a girls weekend with my mom. It is just as pictured. Beautifully decorated, clean and in peaceful setting but close enough to restaurants and various shopping if you want to venture out. Can’t say enough nice things about the hosts, Stacey & Kenny! We had car trouble upon arrival and Kenny got us up with a mechanic that had our vehicle repaired the very next day where the dealership told us it would be 10 days. Will definitely visit again!!!

We had an absolutely phenomenal stay at Stacey and Kenny's Vrbo! The home itself was even more stunning in person - every detail was thoughtfully curated, creating a cozy yet luxurious atmosphere. The home was equipped with everything we needed and more. The kitchen was a dream for cooking meals and the washer and dryer added such convenience to our stay. We especially loved the spa like bathroom and hanging out in the 3 season room to read and listen to the birds. The location was perfect, with easy access to downtown Greenville, other charming towns such as Greer and Travelers Rest and so many fantastic restaurants. Also nearby are Paris Mountain State Park and the Swamp Rabbit Trail, where we had some lovely hikes. Stacey and Kenny's Vrbo is a true gem, and we would love to return again in the future for another unforgettable stay!

Perfect is an understatement, we loved the home!We were impressed as soon as we opened the front door. The home was beautifully decorated, super clean, and updated throughout as well as very comfortable. It has everything you could need, including dishes and cooking supplies. Being centrally located made it easy to visit sites that we wanted to see. Stacey's restaurant suggestions were spot on, enjoyed every dinner! After a day of site seeing, what a treat to return and enjoy a beverage on either porch. We would stay here again without hesitation!

This house was perfect!! Exactly as pictured, extremely clean, and very nice. Close enough to downtown Greenville for a night out, but the feeling of staying in a secluded mountain house. The shower was amazing, bed was very comfy and the screened in porch with tv/fireplace was great to watch a game.

I can only echo the previous reviewers in that this cottage is simply exceptional! This was our first visit to the Greenville area, and we can't wait to come back to stay at Hickory Cottage again soon, as it was located within 20 minutes of downtown Greenville. We hiked Table Rock/Stool Mountain (saw a black bear!) and visited Paris Mountain State Park. Both parks were super convenient to HIckory Cottage. Again, such a gorgeous property, and exactly like the photos. A wonderful long weekend!

Simply beautiful...I absolutely love coming back here. Stacey and Kenny are genuinely the best hosts! The cottage has everything you could want to make your stay here enjoyable. To the walk-in shower with it's spa like feel to the fully equipped kitchen. Everything is so clean and bright. I loved going out on the porch bed swings whether to catch up on some reading or just relax and listen to everything going on in the woods around me. I also enjoyed a fire since the evenings there recently turned cooler. It was nice to finally meet Dora and Squirt and see all the deer that visit from time to time. Thank you Stacey and Kenny for making my stay a memorable one. Looking forward to my next visit soon.

The Hickory Cottage was beautiful with so many thoughtful details. Tucked away in a wooded section of a very nice rural suburban neighborhood, the cottage was very private and surrounded by trees. The owners (Stacey and Kenny) provided everything we could have wanted for an amazing and relaxing stay. The home was immaculate and beautifully styled. The communication with the owners was easy and friendly. We can wholeheartedly recommend this property as your place to stay while in the Greenville, SC area.

Simply Extraordinary

I am fairly critical upon submitting reviews. I found nothing out of place. Cottage is brand new, high end furnishings, has everything you need. You can get lost in the shower. Peaceful, quiet, relaxing. Hosts are a wonderful couple. It’s about 20 minutes to downtown Gville - why I gave location 4 stars. Some like to stay closer to town. Neighborhood is very nice, safe, scenic. Perfect stay for a couple. I would go back again… TOMORROW! Outstanding value for our stay. Thank you so much!
