The BEST rental we’ve stayed in!

The Carolina Cottage is an amazing find in Hickory! The kitchen was fully stocked, the beds were incredibly comfortable, the towels were fluffy and smelled clean, and the decor was on point. It was so nice to return to the cottage after a day of exploring and relax. There wasn’t anything we missed having. We would stay at the cottage again!

6 week stay

We stayed at this property for 6 weeks waiting on our new home to be finished. The home was very cozy and beautifully decorated. My husband was able to telework without any internet issues. The owners were very responsive to any questions. I would highly recommend this property to anyone traveling to Hickory or close by areas.

we love this little house so much!

I checked in for two nights with my son and daughter ages 14 and three. The house is absolutely immaculate and adorable. It’s in a very quiet location and the owner has tasteful decor and quietly thought about every need. If the current owner wants to sell me this house, they should contact me because I just love it and I will be staying there every time I visit my family in North Carolina one of the best rentals I’ve ever stayed in.
