About this property

♥ROMANTIC COTTAGE in a Treehouse setting. Creek/decks. wood-burning stove

**Enjoy a leisurely late checkout -for a limited time only**
Our Beautiful creek-side cottage is set in a woodland dream on an acre of cool hardwood forest mountain land. The cottage is vintage with modern upgrades. We kept the lovely hardwood floors and wormy chestnut wood walls, but modernized the kitchen. Cooking in this kitchen is a pleasure. Its spacious and well lit. You will love the butcher block counter tops and Italian natural stone floor. It is well equipped with new stainless steel appliances (refrig/freezer, gas stove, dishwasher), dishes and cookware. You will rest peacefully in our cozy cottage bedrooms. They are small cottage size, so we make up for it with very comfortable bedding. Included are high quality 100% cotton bed linens and alternative down duvets, medium firm gel foam beds.

For your peace of mind, our beautiful beds are protected with water proof mattress and pillow protectors as well as duvet covers which are changed between each guest stay. Two fluffy white cotton towels per guest. All our linens and towels are gleaming white so our guests can rest assured that everything is beautifully clean!


The chaise room is perfect for quiet time. Just sit back and enjoy the view from a room full of window above the forest.

Want to soak in the mountain air. We have some options. The back deck is private and situated among the treetops just outside the back door. A stone footpath leads to a magical place by the creek. This is a great place for morning coffee or evening wine. If you just have to work, the internet speed is 400.

Our cottage is in a coveted location less than one mile to Blue ridge Parkway entrance and a perfect launching pad for so many area activities. It is 7 minutes to downtown historic Waynesville, 30 min to Asheville, 30 min to Harrah's Cherokee casino and Cherokee Indian Reservation, easy access to Pisgah, Nantahala, Great Smokey Mountain National Forest, and the Appalachian Trail.

Access to the cottage is very easy on paved roads and gentle slopes that even a Prius can get to it without and effort.

Cute, Cozy, Clean and Convenient
This adorable cabin was the perfect spot for my friend and I to relax and visit. It felt away-from-it-all and secluded, yet Walker-in-the-Hills is so convenient. Other cabins and homes nestled in nearby woods make for a safe and friendly community. And, very quiet! Kitchen is complete including spices. Requests or questions were quickly handled by the hosts. If you arrive after dusk, the front security light does pop on, so that’s helpful. Wood burning stove and fireplace are great touches, but furnace alone kept us plenty toasty during a beautiful fall weekend. Lovely views out the many windows! Cute, cozy place!

Perfect cottage
Myself and my wife returned to visit Waynesville/Maggie Valley for a quick getaway after moving away from the area 26 years ago. The cottage was perfect for us. It’s in a quiet area and close to Maggie Valley, Cherokee and parkway. It’s a clean and comfortable house and had everything we needed for our stay. Anna and David responded to questions very quickly

Why they chose this property

loved this cottage at first site. so cute and cozy, away from everything and in the hardwood forest of Walker in the Hills. Just 3 minutes the Blue Ridge parkway entrance and 6 minutes to downtown Waynesville. What's not to love?.

What makes this property unique

Located at a cool 3200 feet at the base of Mt. Lynn-Laurie, 2nd tallest peak in the eastern US., you will be about 3 minutes from the entrance to the Blue ridge Parkway where you will be awed by expansive mountain vistas. The parkway offers access to hiking trail-heads to the Appalachian trail and Mountain to Sea trail.
This adorable cottage has been remodeled and designed to be the perfect peaceful and private hideaway.
The bedrooms shabby chic decor. They are small and cozy and include brand new mattresses and pillows (mattress covers and pillow protectors ). Choose mountain cool breezes or window A/C.
The kitchen is a complete remodel including Italian stone floor, white subway wall tile, new dishwasher and refrigerator and a nice gas range/oven , new cabinets and butcher block counter tops. Well equipped for preparing home cooked meals.
The roomy living room has very comfy couches, the kind that you sink into and don't want to get up again. New 32 inch TV with streaming Internet/Roku ( no cable or satellite premium channels)
The sun room is so peaceful with its waterfall and chaise lounge. The perfect place to just sit and rest, read, meditate, or nap. Your welcome!
The wooden deck is a place to enjoy the Adirondack chairs and dainty bistro for coffee or your own grilled meals. Listen to the creek , enjoy the fresh air under the canopy of the hardwood forest. Very private setting.
The back yard is pretty steep and rocky in places. Woodland with lots of ferns and vegetation and huge trees leading to the creek. If you venture down, be careful and wear long pants and good footwear.
You are welcome to the veggies and herbs in the garden during your stay. Enjoy!
We love this cottage and have taken care to provide so many little extras to make your stay exceptionally peaceful and rejuvenating.
