This cottage is a gem!

What a perfect little cottage and location. The cottage had everything we needed and the grounds are amazing. The stream, waterfall, and vegetation make it feel as if you are in the middle of nowhere, yet you are just a ten minute drive to Boone. I would definitely stay here again.

My all time favorite place to stay❤️

Everything about this cabin is PERFECT, but I must say that the property and location is out of this world. My daughter and our dogs thoroughly enjoyed being by the creek every day. I'm an herbalist so I was super nerdy about all of the native "weeds" that I was able to identify. The cabin was immaculate and the beds were great. We cooked everyday and ate outside on the deck. I would buy this house today if o could and relocate to Boone. It's so magical ✨

Cute little getaway

Such a quaint and good cabin. It rained the entire time because of the hurricane, but we still made the best of it. The morning we went to leave, it snowed, so that was a beautiful goodbye. The small waterfall is a short walk on the property and such a pretty view. The ice maker and water filter in the fridge door do not work. The furniture is a little dated but I think it contributes to the charm of the cabin. The bed is not comfy but our cabin was not cold like others mentioned. We loved the gas fireplace and left the puzzle we completed at the cabin for the next family to enjoy. Wish it hadn’t rained the whole time but we still made the best of it.

Amazing Experience!

We loved this cabin and location! Very clean. The creek and waterfall was an amazing surprise. Beautiful and the sound was very peaceful. The only slight hurdle was that I didn't see that there was no air conditioning inside the home via the listing...which was my fault. And, during the day, it got very hot inside. It took some time to cool down with windows open and door. The home is very shaded, so that helped a lot. There were ceiling fans that helped a bit too. However, considering how hot it got, we thought more box fans should have been available. There was only one small oscillator fan. Should have at least four available IMHO. But, with attention to that, this home could get an extra star from us. We loved it!

Before you book, know up front that you will need a 4WD and a sense of adventure to access this property in winter. The road is not publicly maintained and is literally a sheet of ice, unlike the public roads. We checked in on a Wednesday a good week after they’d had a snow storm and there evidently were no winter safety preparations for our arrival. The parking spot was ice and the rock walkway was also dangerous. For over a decade we’ve been going to the mountains for snow and have never had an experience like this. The property should have been salted for safety and the private road maintained. Pros: -Cute cabin with nice layout -Lovely creek -Rhododendrons will be beautiful in spring -Had an issue with entry code and they were prompt to send another Cons: -Dangerous in winter -50 degrees on check-in and took 24 hours to get warm -Dog excrement all over the yard needs to be cleared away -Stated initially that property was 3 miles from Appalachian Ski Mountain but once complained they changed website to 7 miles (attached screen shot shows they forgot to update in all locations) -Needs pizza pan, pizza cutter, and clean new cookware

Nice cabin but needs a deep clean and some repairs

The listing states there are enough towels and wash cloths for the amount of places to sleep people. Which is listed as 6 on the info. There were only 4 towels and 4 wash cloths there. I sent 2 emails to the property manager and never heard back from them. They were every fast on getting back with me when I inquired about renting the cabin. There were 5 of us and had to wash before we could all take showers. The property is beautiful with a flowing stream behind the cabin. Great to go out on back deck to enjoy but the sliding glass doors take a very strong man to open. There seemed to be a lot of dust and spider webs inside so a deep cleaning should occur. Overall it was comfortable and had all the things you need with the exception of towels!

Cold on check in

My in-laws arrived to the cabin with the outside temperature hovering around the 30-40s and it wasn’t much different inside. The cabin is heated through radiant heat, thus comes through the floors. It heats one degree per hour and heating instructions ask to turn heat to 52(!!) upon checking out - so do the math. The in-laws almost left to get a hotel due to the cold, Michiganders mind you, but layered up and used more blankets. Management needs to resolve this issue for the winter months, especially for those guests who are more intolerable of the cold.

Perfect Getaway

My husband and I had a relaxing time. The place was clean and true to the pictures. Fully stocked kitchen equipment which was refreshing for a change and having a place to bring our two small dogs was awesome. The sound of river was definitely wonderful to listen to at night for a peaceful sleep.

Waterfall Cottage

We truly enjoyed our stay at Waterfall Cottage. Overall we would rate it a four out of five for two main reasons: the road where the cottage is located is gravel and narrow with several potholes and the house could use some maintenance - plants growing out of rain gutters, bathroom floor linoleum lifting at seams, cobwebs and dust collecting on corners of walls, some of the kitchen utensils were rusted. These were minor inconveniences. Otherwise our stay was wonderful.

Very Nice cabin and atmosphere

This was a very relaxing several days. The cabin was nicely decorated and the stream was, literally, 30 feet from the porch steps making the sound of the water a constant source of relaxation. As we arrived, I was concerned about the closeness of the neighbors, but as advertised, it is surrounded by Rhododendron, and it feels very private. We have already talked of going back sometime for another stay.

Perfect nest for a couple’s retreat (plus pup)!

We adore this cabin and will return for a longer stay. It is so private, due to the dense wooded surroundings and creek. The sounds of constant falling water made a soothing soundtrack for a perfect few days. Home was clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Afternoons on the deck were perfect for reading. If showers came, we could move to the covered front porch. There is a lovely path to the side, marked with tiki torches, to a secluded outcrop for additional waterfall viewing. We slept so well in the comfortable downstairs bedroom with the windows open to the cool mountain air. Next time we might invited others to join us — as there is room. Or maybe we’ll keep it to ourselves again.

Beautiful Setting!

This property was perfectly placed away but central to necessities. We came to hike, bike, eat, fish, sight see and we were never too far at Waterfall Cottage. The home itself is so cute! A little overcrowded with big furniture(as a designer it’s hard not to mention) but nothing that took away from the experience. We left behind a pack of coffee filters, dishsoap and dishwasher tablets as these were not provided. There were plenty of towels and wash clothes. The rental agency is not communicative and we had a terrible experience with them. Almost forced to sleep in our truck with our dog and four kids the first night. We will make sure to not rent from a home that used the same rental agency in the future. Overall we loved the creek and the chance for the kids to feel like they were in a different world. Theses Florida people loved our stay.
