This was by far our most favorite place we have ever stayed while in Hot Spings!! We will definitely return and stay here everytime! The owners are precious and the house is so homey feeling. We had a group with 2 couples staying at other places but we all gathered here! There was a total of 11 adults and not one single person was cramped. Everyone loved this experience and made lost of memories. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being the most gracious hosts ladies

Lovely weekend home

We had a wonderful stay in this immaculate home! The rooms are large yet cozy and the kitchen had everything we could possibly need to cook dinner. My family loved the hot tub. The hosts made sure we had propane fur the grill and even came personally when there was a problem with the AC. The workman came right out and quickly fixed the issue. The communication with the host was excellent. We’d definitely stay here again!

Sweet Hot Springs Getaway

The best location within the town, love the character of the house! There is a comfortable living room and large table for games and dining. Love the hot tub and backyard for relaxing evenings. Owners are easy to communicate with and are very responsive. We've stayed in this property a few times and will keep rebooking for future stays! This town needs a lot of love. The only way to support the rebuilding from Hurricane Helene flood damage is to support it... Please book this property and dine out, shop, enjoy this area.

Girls getaway

Less than a block from center of town! The house was cozy and comfortable ( inside and out- nice patio in the back). Hot tub and fire pit available for use. The big TV screen and cozy sofas make for a relaxing night in. The kitchen has all the appliances needed to cook but you are so close to town you could just walk to the restaurants for your meals. The Hot Springs spa is also a short walking distance from the house. Several businesses are still closed on certain days so be sure to look them up. Lots of close hiking and rafting in the area. The owners were quick to respond to any questions we had. The Stone Cottage is a gem in Hot Springs- I highly recommend staying here.

Cozy cottage in Hot Springs!

We absolutely LOVED our stay at this cute, cozy cottage in Hot Springs, NC! The house was clean, perfectly located downtown, and quiet. The upgrades were gorgeous. Even the little touches of fresh flowers were so thoughtful. We loved the hot tub, fire pit, full kitchen, giant TV in the living room, comfy couches, and large dining table for card games. It was an easy walk to local restaurants and shops. The owners were extremely responsive and friendly prior to check-in, and fortunately we didn't have to contact them while staying there because we didn't have any issues at all. We will definitely stay again!!
