Cottage in Taylorsville

Lake-house Not far away but you feel like it is.

MarkRating, 5 stars2 days ago

Jack was a great host! He supplied everything we needed for a fun, lakehouse vacation. Comfortable, clean, safe, quiet! The pictures were accurate and lakefront location was even better than the pictures. The only thing to know ahead of time of that the second bedroom (while clean and very comfortable) is a captured room (enter and exit only through the first bedroom). This is not ideal. It may have been explained in the description and the accurate pictures, but we were caught unaware. Loved our time there! I hope to return.

BubbaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

This house exceeded expectations! Our kids had the time of their lives swimming and it was so peaceful with the private lake access. We didn’t see another person the entire time! Kitchen was fully stocked with pots/pans/cooking utensils. Bathrooms were all very clean. Plenty of space! I don’t have a single complaint!

The beds were really comfortable and clean. The house felt really homey, all the lights shined bright, AC felt really good. The location is in a safe neighborhood. Beautiful kitchen with spacious countertop and clean silverware for use. The living room had a big TV to watch movies on at night. The owners responded super fast and provided a lot of helpful information.

Contemporary Hickory Cottage

CatherineRating, 5 stars42 months ago

My stay at Kym's was excellent. You can expect a warm welcome and friendly conversation. Kym is very accommodating and her home is beautiful. All the amenities are there and she will even share her dog with you if you'd like. She is centrally located with restaurants, stores and fast food nearby.

Cozy Lake Hickory Cabin

AshleyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Great place to stay. It was nice to rent both the bottom portions of the property. I enjoyed that Rachel provided a hammock, canoe, kayak and life vests (made traveling so much easier not having to bring those items along). Rachel was very wonderful to work with and ensured fast responses to my messages. She took extra steps to make sure me and my family felt at home. The screened in porch for lake views during morning breakfast and evening dinners made wanting to leave difficult. Highly recommend securing an air bnb from Rachel. Thank you for leaving my family with endless memories and fun!

Blue Ridge Mountain Parkway Cottage *Pet Friendly*

MadisonRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

We had a wonderful stay for the night we were there. The owners were always very responsive and nice. The house was clean and the master bed was comfortable. The only downside is that we had to pay $211 for just a night stay, so I would say that it is overpriced for the place. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Everything else was very simple. Great stay. Beautiful and clean accommodations. Very convenient to everything I wanted to do. Would stay again.

This was our second stay here. It’s such a cozy little home to stay in when we need a rental in the area. The hosts are very friendly and helpful. The neighborhood is very cute and safe. Great for going on walks. Plus just a short jaunt to so many places in Hickory.
