Quiet & cozy place to stay

Next time I am in Salem, I’m staying here again. The lady who runs this house was very easy to contact for any questions. She is more than accommodating and responds very fast. The bed is comfortable, the shower stays nice and hot. Easy access to everything in town. A very cozy place to be.

Wonderful Weekend Getaway

I was in the area for a canoe trip and stayed at the quaint stone cottage and it was ideal! The privacy and serenity of the back yard was wonderful and the property was exceptionally well appointed. My boyfriend definitely over-indulged in the thoughtfully left snack basket! Thank you for the stay!

Lovely, clean, and central

My husband and I were in the area for some fishing and floating on the Current River. The Rock House suited our needs perfectly, as it allowed us a bit of comfort at the end of the day, a place to cook our meals, and a nearby array of restaurants and stores. The cottage, which has been renovated very well, is adorable and we enjoyed our 3-night stay. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sandy and her cottage to our friends.

Hidden Gem

The pictures do not do this little cottage justice. It is immaculately maintained and stocked with everything you could possibly need. I found the decor charming. It has a beautiful big lawn in the back with a deck to watch the fireflies in the evening. I will definitely be back when I am in the area.

A surprising gem

This little house is a gem: a charming, beautifully restored 19th century cottage. Everything in the house is comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. Think hobbit house, if the hobbits hired Martha Stewart. We stayed two nights, as a stop over during a long road trip, and it was nearly perfect. Highly recommended.
