Solo Getaway

Everything was perfect! This was a solo mental health weekend for me. It could not have been better. The porch swing was perfect and I need one!! So relaxing and comfortable. Very quiet and safe area yet convenient to town, shopping and restaurants. Loved it!

Wonderful stay

This was such a beautiful place! Exactly what is in the photos!! Every thing felt luxurious. I was able to get in a little early, which I was great full for as I had been traveling since 1:30 am. There was shampoo and conditioner just needed a soap bar for the shower. The bed is comfortable, the pillows were a bit hard for me. But really that was the only down fall. I asked for extra creamers for my coffee, they were there when I returned that evening. The was such a peaceful and relaxing place. Perfect stay for me. Plenty of room if my husband could have came. Close to Hendersonville and conveniently located. The porch was wonderful and enjoyed it in the evening and morning having my coffee. I only wish I could have stayed longer! I hope to return again!

Awesome stay

The little cottage was perfect for our weekend getaway. The listing is just as described and in a quiet secluded area. We will definitely be back. Also, it is located just 5 minutes from Marked Tree Vineyard and 15 minutes to the downtown area. We had a great time and wish we could have stayed longer.

Beautiful place!

The place is quiet and private. The cottage is beautifully decorated and it is near the Interstate, so it is a plus if you are visiting nearby cities, but at the same time it was secluded into the woods! We enjoyed the fall colors! The host was pleasant and gave us suggestions of places to visit. We really enjoyed our stay!

Cozy Cabin

The Gala cabin was wonderful. The cabin was very clean and offered every amenity we needed. The washer/dryer came in handy after a day of kayaking. The covered porch was a plus.
