We had a wonderful, very relaxing stay at this bungalow in Blue Ridge. The location was fantastic—within easy walking distance to downtown, which we really enjoyed. The home was extremely clean, which is very important to us, and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed during our stay. The house felt very welcoming, and we absolutely loved having a Christmas tree during our stay...it made it extra special. We brought our two dogs, and the neighborhood was perfect for easy, enjoyable walks. Overall, a comfortable and convenient place to stay, and we would definitely return.

Location Location Location! Within walking distance to Main Street and you could be anywhere you need to be in a short 5min walk. The stairs may be a challenge for small kids or elderly, though the layout of the bungalow would be perfect for adults with 1-2 middle school kids. The detached studio was adorable though we did not use it. Would also be great for a couples weekend getaway. Communication with the host was great. Definitely would stay there again!

Very cute cottage, and it had everything we needed. Our concern was the cottage was not handicap friendly. Having just had knee replacement and waiting on another surgery, getting in and out of the cottage was very difficult. My other complaint was there was no local TV to watch. We had to stream. It rained the whole time we were there and we enjoy watching local channels mainly Monday night football and morning news. However, it’s a nice place but should advertise not handicap assessable. To no fault of the owner, it’s on a Main Street and the traffic noise is horrendous!
