I have stayed here twice in 2 years and brought my dog both times. Great yard for him to play frisbee and lovely little quiet neighborhood for walks. Very close to LR University which my daughter goes to.
My husband and I stayed here while visiting family! It was a perfect home to relax in and recharge before our busy days! Our hosts were very generous and accommodating! We felt very welcomed! I would stay here again!
Loved the charming house. The backyard, back deck, firepit and views were show stealers. The house clean and had everything we needed to enjoy a visit with our college student.
We had a great time in Hickory. For us, this location was very convenient for many day trips. The cottage was adorable and comfortable and had everything you would need. We will definitely be back again in the near future. Thank you.
Everything was terrific for our stay!
We spent a few nights here while my Lenoir-Rhyne student son recovered from a surgery. It was the perfect place for our needs; comfortable, very quiet and very close to the University, hospitals and all amenities.
The neighborhood is lovely, and you’ll spot lots of friendly walkers, runners and dog-walkers.
I 100% recommend this home!
My father and I and my dog stayed at the cottage to visit my daughter who attends LR for a track meet. The beds were super comfy. My dog loved the yard to play frisbee and round around. The neighborhood is very relaxed and safe even when walking late at night. Definitely would stay again.
Thank you

The house was perfectly situated for me to explore areas in and around Hickory. Quick and easy 5 minute drive to Hickory Lake Park to walk my dog and ride my bike on the off-road trails. 20 minute drive to Bakers Park and Riverbend Park for more trail walking. House was pleasantly cooled with a/c, ceiling fans above the bed, and the mattress comfortable provided for a great nights sleep.

Really nothing special. Furniture in back was thrown all around. Nothing was set up. Dirty ashtrays sitting on tables in back and front of home. Ants in bathroom. It wasn’t as pleasant as we thought it would be. Some of the towels looked dirty etc. very surprising.
