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.

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.

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!

Perfect place to stay while exploring Lake Lure and the area around the Tryon International Equestrian Center!

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!
