Fantastic Cottage

Birdsong is an adorable cottage & perfect place for me to stay while in town for several weeks. We were lucky that the flowers on the property were blooming so it was extra pretty! The cottage is close to uptown and 74, and is the perfect size for two people! Marywinn was wonderful and easy to deal with, quick to communicate and I highly recommend her property if you're staying in Shelby!

A little drive to downtown

The property was clean. Plenty of clean towels, high modern led mirror. The main bedroom is in the same room with two twin beds which is a bit different. We enjoyed the downtown area, but would say it’s a 5 minute car ride.

I'll never stay anywhere else

This is, without a doubt, the most comfortable, charming Vrbo (or AirBnb, for that matter), that I've ever rented - love the bird-themed decor! If ever I need a writer's retreat to finish a book, I'm coming here for a few weeks!

Short family trip

The house was very clean, neat, , and the shower was good. The sleeping situation wasnt good because of the open floor plan so it was hard to sleep, the main bed is FIRM so if you enjoy plush mattresses dont sleep here. The train is LOUD at night. The shower pressure was good but the shower is very small. The train was extremely loud both nights. The kitchen was cute with lots of utensils and extras if you want to cook. It was also very nice to have a washer and dryer. The owner was excellent with quick communication!! Very accomodating with late checkout. . The train

My Niece’s wedding at The Spinning Lead Vineyard

Weekend Family stay for wedding at Spinning Leaf Vineyards. The property was immaculate, The owners were very friendly and helpful. This location is close to the heart of downtown Shelby, NC. I’d definitely recommend Birdsong to anyone especially those that suffer from severe allergies. No heavy smells which made my stay an absolute pleasure. I also appreciated how well stocked they were on the toiletries, cookware to cook and the Ralph Lauren bedding was extremely comfortable and cozy. There is only a shower stall, no bathtub. The owners made sure we had everything we needed and that we were aware of the the house layout. I give it 5+ Stars

Adorable Cottage in Downtown Shelby

Three of us spent 4 nights in this home while visiting nearby universities. It is exactly as advertised, very creatively decorated, has easy access to major roadways but tucked away enough from the city to be quiet (we were lucky enough to even see the Northern lights one night). The owners were quick to communicate as needed and helped make sure our stay was enjoyable.

Such a cute cottage!

This little house was absolutely adorable and clean. I came in town for the Homeschooling Special Needs Expo and it was a nice place to stay as most hotels were booked. The only downside side was that it was near a train track, but from what other attendees said it was also loud at the hotels, so it couldn't be avoided. I hope to stay again!
