My friend and I REALLY enjoyed our stay at the "Delightful Cottage". Although it was a little rainy some days, we were able to enjoy the hot tub a couple times. (During bug seasons, an insect fogger is essential, but bring your own-more expensive at the hardware store in town.) We sat on the porch most of the time we were there, but Direct TV even let me watch my hometown baseball team one night. Did have trouble with TV, but figured it out with Jeff's help. (Don't use the Power button to turn it off- use the Off button or you'll have to reset the box.)

The cottage is right on the road and there was a lot of traffic, so watch the kiddos. Almost everyone waved as they went by-very friendly neighborhood. Amazingly, when you are inside, you don't hear the cars go by.

Never saw any of the neighbors. Very quiet. Church next door if you are so inclined.

The inside of the cottage was very well maintained-she has an excellent cleaning tech. We had everything we needed for our stay. Appliances easy to use. Beds super comfy! My friend really appreciated the leather sofa-very easy for her to relax and put her feet up after a long day of shopping in Asheville.

Hot Springs is a wonderful town! We enjoyed a soak at the Spa twice. The market even had a meat frig in case you needed dinner. The Iron Horse Saloon is an excellent restaurant with generous portions. Would've tried the Ice Cream Parlor, but they close early during the week. Check out the cute store next to the Iron Horse (on the railroad side)-lots of local artwork!

Only had to bother Deb once, but she was very sweet. Asked about our visit and was very happy that we had a great stay! I would recommend staying at any of her properties as she pays great attention to detail.

Come enjoy the mountains! You won't regret it. Just don't come down HWY 209. Called" Rattlesnake Roll" (with 290 curves) for a reason.
