Wonderful stay!!

Perfectly Charming!

The Carriage House could not have been any more perfect for our stay in Hillsborough. Great location, clean, cozy, and comfortable for the two of us. We left thinking this beautiful little cottage will be “our place” whenever we travel to Hillsborough to visit our kids and grandkids!

What a special experience! The Carriage House was as described and much more. It reminded us of our family mountain log cabin that was built in 1934 which we restored 20 years ago. Terrific host, immaculate and one of a kind. We highly recommend.

Charming Carriage House

We loved staying at the carriage house. It is beautifully decorated and maintained, and by far, the cleanest rental I have ever stayed. The owners thought of everything to make our stay feel like home, from first aid kits and flashlights to a desk stocked with notepad, pens, and paper clips. Thank you for a lovely stay!

The Best

This carriage house is wonderful. The owners restored it beautifully and furnished it so thoughtfully. It seemed as though we were staying in someone's home--all the little details made it awfully easy to wish we were staying for more than just a few days. Thank you for having us!
