    Melanie was a wonderful host & communicator. We will definitely return. It’s a lovely, comfortable, clean home, and the hot tub was such a perfect amenity. Easy walk to town, and easy to find.

    The home was cute and spacious. We LOVED the hot tub, obviously. It was great for relaxing after a hike on the AT and other nearby trails. The proximity to town was also perfect. We enjoyed eating in town each night of our trip. The kitchen also had everything we needed for preparing breakfast and lunch.

    Walkable to downtown area. Host called before check in and was available throughout stay for questions (hot tub was being difficult). Beds were comfy and kitchen had everything that we needed

    Our host was wonderful and the location ideal to the AT and we were pleased to have made the trip. Unfortunately, due to a sensitivity to mildew and all the rain in the area, we needed to cut our trip shorter than planned.

    My wife and I had an amazing anniversary stay at this charming, spotless cottage in Hot Springs! The location was perfect—peaceful yet just a short walk to town and close to the Appalachian Trail. The hot tub was a highlight, with a great setup that made it even more enjoyable.Evenings spent rocking on the porch chairs, watching fireflies, were magical. Since our last visit in 2017, the town has added more amenities, and this rental made it easy to access them all.My favorite experience was a perfect day that started with tubing on the French Broad River, followed by a relaxing soak in the mineral waters at the Hot Springs Resort and Spa. We finished our day with a run through the rain to enjoy pizza and drinks at Vinyl Pies, then took a short, scenic, and less-wet walk back home!A huge thanks to Melanie, the property owner, who went above and beyond to make our stay possible. She was kind, responsive, and clearly takes pride in offering a clean, well-furnished home. Her warmth and attention to detail made our trip truly special. Highly recommend!

    This is an adorable cabin right in the beautiful town of Hot Springs NC. The view from the front porch is amazing. You are in walking distance to many excellent trails. The cabin is right beside the Appalachian Trail for starters. In a five minute walk you also can be at Big Pillow Brewery, which has delicious beer and a great taco stand. In a six minute walk you can be at Hot Springs Natural Mineral Spa where you can soak in a private tub along Spring Creek. I highly recommend this special cabin in this special town.
