Very quaint farmhouse, very clean with all the amenities. Just keep in mind this is an authentic 1920s home. Lower ceilings, claw foot tub/shower. It was perfect for my sister and I. Very close to DuPont hiking, Hendersonville and Flat Rock. We loved eating and playing games at the table on the front porch. Lovely view of the horses. I would highly recommend staying here and we hope to go back.

This cute and quaint farmhouse cottage was exactly as described and the perfect home base for our family’s hiking and waterfall exploration getaway. We visited over Labor Day weekend and enjoyed exploring the local area, including Pigsah National Forest, DuPont State Forest, Hendersonville Apple Festival, and Brevard shops and restaurants. The cottage is wonderfully situated to take advantage of the areas natural surroundings. A short 5 minute drive to a five waterfall hike in DuPont forest, 30-40 minutes to Pigsah and the Blue Ridge Parkway. And 20 minutes each to Hendersonville and Brevard. The owners were very accommodating, very responsive and helpful, and showed pride in keeping the cottage clean and comfortable. We would definitely return if we venture back to the area.

Very cute and clean cottage across the street from lovely horses. Conveniently located near DuPont State Forest. Owners responded quickly to a text involving a WiFi Q. The shower set up in antique clawfoot tub (of the only bathroom) was way too cozy, especially for my partner. Nice and quiet spot, and a sweet swing on the front porch.

We had a wonderful stay at this peaceful cottage. The location was ideal—quiet and surrounded by nature, yet still close enough to town for restaurants, groceries, and anything else we needed. DuPont State Recreational Forest is just a short drive away for those interested in hiking and exploring the outdoors.The home was clean, comfortable, and well-stocked with everything one might need for a relaxing stay. We especially enjoyed visiting nearby farms to pick up fresh, local meats and produce-it was a great way to experience the area.Olivia and Ryan were very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. This is a perfect spot for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the North Carolina mountains. Highly recommend!

This place was the perfect spot to get time on some trails in Dupont and Pisgah. It was located close to Brevard & Hendersonville. Watching the horses in the morning was a treat. We will be back :)

Loved the old farm house feel - reminded us of Grandparents’ houses! We enjoyed watching the horses across the street. And it was so close to DuPont Forest! We had a few rain showers come through which were relaxing to watch from the covered porch.

Time travel with conveniences!

Shoal Creek Cottage is like stepping back in time, but with modern conveniences. The cottage is comfortable, light and airy and beautifully decorated. We loved watching the horses from the front porch. Very convenient to DuPont and Holmes State Park and a scenic drive to town. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Perfect Place to Unwind

We absolutely loved the house and it's furnishings. It was very comfortable and had the best views from every window. The grounds were exceptional and who doesn't love being surrounded by horses. You can hear the river off in the distance and really wish we had time to explore.Ryan and Olivia were wonderful and accommodating hosts. Would like to have met them in person but we were too crunched for time.Thank you Ryan and Olivia.. I hope to see you on my next trip to NC.
