About this property

The Forest Door - Studio Suite in Stone Cottage

  • A Private Forest Retreat in the Heart of Tryon, NC

    Looking for a peaceful getaway in the Carolina Foothills? The Forest Door is a beautifully designed studio apartment tucked into the trees just above Harmon Field, in the heart of Tryon. Whether you're planning a romantic weekend, a quiet solo retreat, or a short-term rental near TIEC, this thoughtfully furnished space offers all the comfort and calm you need.

    🏡 A Treehouse-Like Escape for Couples, Artists & Nature-Lovers

    The Forest Door is more than just a vacation rental—it's a calming hideaway wrapped in greenery, birdsong, and soft natural light. The studio’s large windows and forest views make you feel suspended in nature, while the stone walls and Mediterranean touches create a sense of timeless charm.
    Perfect for:
    Couples' getaways and romantic stays
    Solo trips to rest, write, or recharge
    Tryon visitors attending events or exploring the foothills
    Small families with one child (futon sofa available)

    🍳 A Fully Stocked Kitchenette for Easy Living

    This is no ordinary studio—the kitchenette is ideal for preparing simple meals or morning coffee on your own time. You’ll have:
    Fridge/freezer
    Microwave and toaster oven
    High-end hot plate
    Coffee maker
    Full sink and dishware
    Enjoy your breakfast with birdsong, then take a stroll through the woods or down to Harmon Field.

    🛏️ Comfort, Privacy & Quiet

    Designed with long mornings and early evenings in mind, the Forest Door offers:
    A comfortable main bed (perfect for two)
