Serenity in the woods.

Property very clean and tidy. We had 2 adults that fit nicely in the space. The host was exceptional, very available and welcoming. Front steps may be a challenge for folks with balance problems, as walkway to front door entails a long set of stairs. Peaceful property. Great weekend getaway!

Lovely and quiet location! The cottage was an adorable artiste’s studio built in the 1920’s. The only drawback was the walk downhill, but we were fine with this. The king size bed was very comfortable.

Charming cottage near town

We throughly enjoyed our stay & Vana was an excellent host providing hiking and birding locations to explore. It is not often a cottage in the woods is so close to town that we were able to walk to restaurants and the Tryon Arts Center to see a show. We plan to be back.

Comfortable stay in guest house

This little guest house is full of charm, originally built as an art studio for the original owner of the main house. The host does a wonderful job of having everything you might need there. The house is well appointed. She is exceptionally friendly and is right there if you have any problems. Highly recommend

Cute and cozy cottage was perfect stopping place

My wife, daughter and I really enjoyed our stay here - just enough for our needs for an overnight stay in a comfortable place where we could spread out just a little. Everything was clean and exactly as advertised. Our host Vana was super helpful guiding us the whole way and providing everything we needed for an enjoyable stay.

Exploring the area near the Tryon International Equestrian Center

Perfect place to stay while exploring Lake Lure and the area around the Tryon International Equestrian Center! Clean, cozy, comfortable cottage, close to town, but removed just enough to provide to provide privacy and relaxation. Beds were very comfortable, kitchen and bath were well appointed. We had a great stay and would definitely visit again!

Hidden Gem

This cottage was absolutely perfect! From its cool history to the nicest host on the planet, we loved our stay. The cottage has so much character. The photos on VRBO do not do it justice. The setting was gorgeous and the lighting bugs put on quite a show for us! We ordered takeout and sat outside the cottage for dinner. The bed was extremely comfortable and we slept so well. We highly recommend and will hopefully be back!

Beautiful cottage and amazing hosts!!!!!

The cottage is so well appointed and easy to operate inside - the hosts thought of everything anyone might need. We loved the historic nature of the place and Vana was the most gracious host as well as her husband who kindly helped us with our bags. The location is wonderful, so close to town you could walk! We can't wait to go back!

A very sweet cottage in a lovely town, Tryon NC. My friend is a fan of Nina Simone and that was the draw for us. However, we found beautiful waterfalls to visit and excellent shops and galleries to wander.
