Creekside Fairytale Cottage-Hot Tub-Cozy Fireplace

Situated on the banks of Spring Creek in the charming mountain town of Hot Springs, NC, The Stone Cottage is a beautifully crafted post-and-beam retreat featuring natural stone and cedar shake details. Designed as a peaceful escape for couples, this creekfront cottage blends comfort, privacy, and natural beauty in every season.

The Stone Cottage sleeps two and features a spacious loft bedroom with a king-size bed. The open-concept main level includes a cozy living area, small dining space, and a fully equipped custom kitchen with everything needed for preparing meals at home. A gas fireplace anchors the living space, providing warmth and ambiance during cooler months. The downstairs bathroom features custom tilework, and during warmer seasons guests can enjoy the enclosed outdoor shower for a refreshing, spa-like experience.

Step outside onto the large wraparound deck, which spans two sides of the cottage and offers the perfect place to relax, listen to the rushing creek, and observe local wildlife. The private jacuzzi tub sits right on the deck with unobstructed views of Spring Creek below. Steps lead down to the creek bank for exploring, though accessibility may vary depending on water levels.

During warmer months, guests have access to one of the best swimming holes in the area located directly below the cottage, and Spring Creek is also well known for fishing. The swimming hole and creek bank are shared with the neighboring Creek House.

The Stone Cottage is ideally located just a five-minute walk from downtown Hot Springs and the Appalachian Trail, offering easy access to hiking, river activities, local dining, shops, and sightseeing throughout Western North Carolina.

All linens, standard supplies, and paper products are provided. Updated fiber-optic Wi-Fi is included. The Stone Cottage is professionally managed by the local hosting team at Hot Springs Getaway, ensuring attentive care and a seamless stay.

Perfect for my work/ play visit

This was a combo work/ play visit for me--3 days of work interspersed with hikes and enjoying the mountains. All my work was video calls and the internet was NO problem at all, if that is important to you.It was awesome to be able to take my lunch breaks on the deck overlooking the creek, and I definitely took advantage of the hot tub. Also amazing to be a quick drive into the Pisgah Forest for a hike after work.If you like to cook, you'll be happy with the kitchen. I found everything I needed.The bedroom loft was great and the bed itself really comfy. I kept the windows open every night and it was so nice to fall asleep and wake up to the sound of the creek.Hot Springs is trying hard to come back, though not everything is up and running just yet. I managed to grab a spot at the Hot Springs resort, and I stopped by Sara Jo's store almost every day (imagine finding hand made tamales and some locally made salsa!). A bit farther away is the Trust General Store and Cafe--I've eaten at the Cafe in the past and it's great (I missed their opening for the season by one day!). It's the perfect stop if you decide to hike Max Patch, as I did.Overall I loved my stay and I appreciate how easy it was to communicate with the owners.

Sleeping to the trickling of the creek

Very unique and eclectic, helping you know you are on vacation and not in sleek hotel. The gurgling of the creek all night long (window strategically located was left open at night: heavenly. This may not be the best choice for someone needing to make trip(s) to the restroom throughout the night, since the bedroom is upstairs.

45th Anniversary in this lovely cottage

The cottage was as good or better than the pictures on Vrbo, and we had a delightful time. No electronic "babbling brook" generator could match the sound of Spring Creek just outside the door. Proximity to town and hiking were both great. Perfect weather helped, but had it rained we could have just stayed indoors and enjoyed ourselves just as much. Can't thank you enough, Karen!!

Sweet memories at the Stone Cottage

From the very start, everything about the Stone Cottage exceeded our expectations. The creekside location, the ambience of the house itself. We were continually impressed by the thoughtful details of the Cottage and its decor. We had everything we needed, linens, paper products, seasonings, a fully equipped kitchen. Even a first aid kit! This is by far the cutest and well equipped vacation property we have ever rented. We would love to return. We made great memories at the Stone Cottage! Loved the guest book rock pile too ❤️
