Cute Cottage for TIEC

Super cute cottage very close to the Tryon Equestrian center. Tucked way back in the woods and was very quiet. Extremely clean - I am picky about this so was pleased with the cleanliness. Nice having 2 beds and baths as well as laundry. Would stay again when in the area.

Although you travel down a gravel road to the property, it is beautiful! The house was clean and very private. The host was very responsive and it was fun seeing the goats and Great Dane puppy welcoming us as we drove in.
