About this cottage rental

Welcome to Rock Hill Cottages! We now have the Gate Cottage and the Dairy Barn (separate listing--VRBO#51380894 available for short term rental! Kick back and relax in this calm, remote, stylish space. The Gate Cottage is located just inside and up the hill from our front gate; hence, the "Gate Cottage". Our Tennessee farm is at the very end of a dead-end road, with little to no traffic. Once you are here, you can put your feet up and relax, with few passersby, and no streetlights. Have a weekend or more away from it all, whether to read, write, rest, hike, fish, kayak from or to our creek--there are endless things to do, or do nothing at all.

The space
Enter from the front porch into the living area, with the fully appointed gourmet kitchen, laundry, shower and half-bath on the main floor. Upstairs is one large bedroom with a queen bed (Temperpedic Mattress), cast-iron bathtub, windows surrounding with great natural lighting, with a small room with two twin mattresses on the floor for either kids or a second couple. There is another half-bath upstairs, gas logs, vaulted ceilings, 100% Cotton Percale linens creating a spa-like retreat like no other.

Guest access
The entire house is available to guests, with the exception of an owners' closet. Guests have full access to the entire 150 acres to explore, excluding the owners' home on the hill, and the Dairy Barn house in the barnyard. Additionally, Bradshaw Creek is running through the property, which ties into the Elk River, so fishing, swimming, and kayaking are all available to you.

In the barnyard we have a slide and kid's hay fort for children to play, with adult supervision.

Recent additions to the Gate Cottage include its own private 5-foot round tub which can be warmed in the cooler months, and cooled in the summer months. Also new to the property is a fire pit and four Adirondack chairs, located behind the Gate Cottage, with firewood provided.

Need to work while visiting? The cottage has dependable (FIBER! 320 download speed, 304 upload speed) internet, and is quiet and away from distractions, as the Gate Cottage is separate and apart from the owners' home and Dairy Barn house in the barnyard.

Need a larger space? Consider our Dairy Barn Cottage, which is also on the property and sleeps 12 people and allows pets! It can be found on VRBO #51380894.

This was truly one of the best stays I’ve ever experienced. The listing was incredibly accurate, and the entire property was clean, peaceful, and exactly as described. The hosts were exceptionally kind, friendly, and responsive, answering any questions almost immediately.I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to escape the noise of everyday life and relax in the woods. The home is new, spotless, and thoughtfully decorated, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It was also fully stocked with everything needed for cooking, cleaning, and a comfortable stay.I thoroughly enjoyed my time here and will definitely be returning for another visit. An outstanding experience from start to finish.

We knew from the photos this place would be charming, but actually being there was like a dream. There is of course the cottage which has storybook/luxury farmhouse vibes. And then there is the grounds which have a beautiful creek with swimming hole, a hay house for kids, multiple ponds, open pasture with cows and horses, a pig pen, and chickens! No city lights or noise and a great place to get away. It is quiet, peaceful, and the hosts are beyond hospitable! Incredible property and absolutely beautiful cottage. We just booked one night while passing through, but we will absolutely be back and make a point to stay longer next time. This place is amazing.

The property was exactly how the host explained it. Had a wonderful time very relaxing and opportunity to feed the pigs, do a tour of the farm and play corn hole. We will definitely would like to book in the future thank you so much Mrs Leigh and Mr Jimmy for your hospitality!
