About this apartment rental

Catamount Cottage is a quaint retreat for either a single traveler or a couple. This fully renovated studio cottage is situated on a private drive in a small residential area just a stone's throw from Western Carolina University. Originally built as a wood workshop by the first owner, a former WCU football coach, the cottage is tucked under the main house and has it's own private driveway.

The current owners wanted to honor the original vision by keeping the rustic exterior, but the inside of the cottage is brand new. This modern and upscale retreat is outfitted for a cozy stay. The kitchen, complete with granite countertops and an eat-in bar, has all of the amenities you might need if your preference is staying in and cooking for yourself. You can sink into the full-size bed and watch Netflix or read a book on the leather armchair. If there is work to do, you can utilize the dedicated high-speed internet and work at the counter-height bar or outside on the front deck. If your preference is going out, the towns of Sylva and Dillsboro are an easy 15-minute drive with award-winning restaurants to choose from!

This little cottage was prefect and so close to campus. If my daughter continues her pursuits, it will not be my last time renting this cottage.

It was perfect for what I needed it for. Size was just enough and it was a peaceful stay.

Conveniently located near Western Carolina University, the Smoky Mountains, Cherokee and Maggie Valley, this place is wonderfully decorated and has everything needed for a quiet weekend stay. Excellent appliances, cooking tools and tableware along with fresh plush towels, comfortable bed linens make this a home away from home. The bath is small but doable even for a big person like me. The local cats are friendly but not intrusive. The deck provides a beautiful view of the mountains through the trees. There is minimal road noise. There are stairs so be prepared for that. I would definitely recommend.
