Sound machines and blackout curtains are provided for an even deeper sleep.  All king beds are enveloped in sanitary mattress covers and all pillows have zipped protectors on them. We also are a carpet free establishment and all area rugs are washable!  





We have the most wonderful family that has lovingly cared for the cottages for many years and are industrial cleaners. This means we not only clean all units using the most sanitary measures , but deep cleanings and maintenance come with the whole package.

*There are a total of four one bedroom / one bathroom cottages on site and completely fenced in, which make it the perfect venue  for larger corporate groups, large families or reunions. All cottages reserved together can accommodate up to 16 guests. 





The Porch was dreamed up by a former Publicist who took the best of her travels to New York, Miami and Los Angeles and blended chic amenities of the best hotels and paired them into cozy southern cottages. You will find magical touches infused at our properties such as bistro lights, in room fireplaces and outdoor firepits. A lighted memory wall for photo ops and nooks hidden throughout to invoke the imagination. Magic truly happens at the Porch!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This was a great place to stay! Cute clean and well decorated suite/cottage. Great communication with host! Even added an extra day so we could enjoy the festival. HIGHLY recommend. My ONLY recommendation would be to possibly upgrade the mattress. Still a 5* rating!
