Stonecreek Cottage: Beautifully Renovated Home w/ Patio | Walkable to Downtown
Escape to Highlands, NC for a rejuvenating stay at this charming 2 bedroom 2 bath cottage! Nestled in nature and offering a laid-back ambiance inside and out, this beautiful relaxing cottage promises a time with at-home comforts and outdoor adventures. Spend the day hiking the Nantahala National Forest, chase waterfalls down the Cullasaja River, or take a short walk to Mirror Lake to lounge by the water. When the sun sets, come back to this fabulous retreat and kick back by the fireplace with a good movie and a great glass of wine, next to the ones you love. Both bedrooms feature King-sized beds.
Twice as much room and thought was invested in the outdoor space behind the home, with a large stone patio and plenty of places to relax in the cool mountain air. A gas grill, dining table and lounge chairs around a firebowl sit here, with stone steps leading either up into the stone firepit terrace or down to the creek that runs alongside the home. Stonecreek Cottage...the place you'll call home.

Perfect place to relax. Well stocked kitchen. Two fireplaces inside were cozy on a rainy day… The fire pit was magical. Morning walk around the zen garden ending up by the creek started the days off right. Great selections of dining a short drive away. Good hiking trails close by.

Loved our stay at this precious, well appointed cottage. Great kitchen with plenty of cookware and a gas range for cooking in. Cozy den with fireplace for reading or watching movies. Great fire pit for hanging out at night and looking at the stars. Our dogs loved the yard!
