Cottage was clean and the setting was wonderful. Unfortunately the washing machine overflowed and flooded the whole laundry room. We had to turn off the water to the whole house to get the water to stop. Eric was very responsive. He came immediately and got the water back on but the washing machine was out of order. Eric gave us the option to move to the Cozy Creek cottage which was almost next door. We moved and had a lovely evening. The Cozy Creek cottage was perfect!

This place was exactly what we needed. Very peaceful right on the creek and had places to hike and walk the dog right from the house. The parkway has an entrance that’s very close too which made it nice for being able to take the scenic route to places and enjoy the beauty of the parkway. The host also was very responsive and went out of their way to get things right for us. Would definitely recommend staying here!

If your looking for a weekend away this is the place its calm, quiet and peaceful. The cabin was clean and cozy. Overall great stay

I'm really torn because the house has both pros/cons. Yes, the house is very quaint/rustic/old. Because of its age, the floors slope in places, and the ceiling beams appear to need repair, but perhaps they're just decorative?Pros:- Serene location next to the creek. Feels very private despite being right off the road with very easy access. 25 min to Asheville.-The trails across the creek in the adjacent park are not well-marked, but we had a great time walking our dog there. It's filled with native plants, including the largest patch of trout lilies I've ever seen! Beautiful! -Love that it's dog-friendly and doesn't charge extra for pets!-The hot tub is lovely and covered! -We didn't use it, but it now has a Weber grill.-Lovely toiletries!Cons:-Harder to sleep if you're sensitive to noise: One bedroom has a window unit that's fairly loud. The master bedroom is near the utility room where some sort of system routinely makes various noises that were too loud for us.-The water pressure was abysmal if you tried to use more than one faucet. So if someone was showering, we couldn't use water in the kitchen. -The shower perpetually drips. -The bridge over the creek no longer has a railing. We had no issues, but not ideal for someone less stable. -The road is out just down from the house, so access to the trails is a bit longer.-Some sheets were worn with pilling that made them feel gritty if you slept in shorts. Would suggest new sheets or plan to sleep in pants.
