Extending more than 180 degrees, gaze at beautiful Whiteside and the valley all the way over to Lake Keowee and Clemson. At the base of the drive you find Darby Cottage to your left and Rose Cottage to your right. Darby Cottage features an open floor plan with modern kitchen, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Two bedrooms, with King beds (guest bedroom King can be made into 2 Twins upon request) and two baths, each with access to the deck looking over the mountains and valleys beyond. Soak in the sunsets and gentle breeze on the screen porch that also features a patio heater. Inside, enjoy the large wood burning stone fireplace and large screen TV. Rose cottage Just to the right of Darby is Rose Cottage, named for the large rose bush featuring two bedrooms with 1 Queen and 2 Twins (convertible Twin beds can be made into 1 King upon request) and 2 bathrooms with a large open kitchen/living/dining area. Just off of the kitchen, have your morning coffee in the cozy sunroom while viewing the mountain ranges beyond.
