The house was perfect for our group and located convenient to everything
4 guys came down to golf and our stay was wonderful. We enjoyed the peaceful deck and cooked some steaks on the grill. Ring toss became a great component.
We wanted to find a spot that we could walk into the village and it was perfect. Very clean, easy and wonderful. The weather was chilly which made family snuggling in the evenings by the tv very nice.
Property and location were really good. Only thing I didn’t love was the tiny showers with bad water pressure. But overall very clean, great location.

This house was very very clean. I will order again in next time.
This house was perfect for our family. It was super convenient to the golf courses. Our child was competing in the US Kids Worlds golf tournament at Pinehurst #5. The drive was less than 5 minutes. The house was clean and very comfortable. We will be back in the future.
Everything was great and in order as expected as this was our second time at the Scotsman. The location can’t be beat and the cottage is perfect for a family weekend in Pinehurst. It was unfortunate we could not get the thermostat adjusted or reach the property manager when the cottage became unbearably warm on our last day before departing the next morning.

Beds, pillows, and couches were very comfortable. House was very clean. We were there for a quick weekend so we didn't have a lot time to spend at the house during the day, but there are board games and outdoor games provided. We visit Pinehurst often for weekend trips and we will definitely stay here again.

We had 6 ladies come stay at the house for a spa weekend. This house is perfectly laid out for this amount of people. The three bathrooms gave us all ample space for getting ready. The house is extremely clean and meticulously maintained. The carpet seemed to be brand new and there was not one scratch on the walls. Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay and the location could not be beat. Walkable to town and various amenities. Thanks again for a great weekend. We will certainly be back!

The property is very nice and well maintained. We enjoyed our stay.
This was a very nice and clean property. The kitchen was well equipped as well as the laundry room. The only small issue was the small shower spaces. Everything else was good and it is conveniently located near shopping. Thank you for allowing my family to have the experience.
A group of tennis friends stayed in this home for the weekend and it was perfect for our group. Being so close to the resort, downtown shopping and restaurants was extremely convenient. The home is well equipped, clean, quiet and updated.
