Gnome Hill Cottage - A Rustic Pet-Friendly Cottage In The Woods
512' square shed converted to very cozy mountain bunkhouse style cottage with an open floorplan except for the bathroom. There's a large screened porch (32' x 8'), and a smaller deck with charcoal grill and fire pit. Still a work in progress. Secluded in the woods but very close to several state parks with fishing, lakes, rivers, waterfalls, scenic overlooks, canoeing & kayaking, and hiking areas. Very woodsy and peaceful.
Be sure to bring your groceries with you. There is a Dollar General about 3 miles away with some food items, and a very nice Ingle's about 12 miles north on Hwy. 11.
If you bring a pet it is required that you text me a picture of your baby(ies) inside the cottage. There is a mandatory $20 pet fee, and an additional $20 will be charged to your account if any "accidents" are left inside, or on the porch and deck. Yes, people have done that.
Please note - This is pet-friendly cottage, and most of our guests bring their dogs to visit. We diligently clean between each guest and try to make sure all surfaces are clean of pet hair. Sometimes, we may fall short. If any kind of pet hair is a problem for you and not to your liking, this may not be the cottage for you.
There is no mandatory cleaning fee, but guests are encouraged to leave a tip for the cleaning staff, especially if you stay multiple nights, or are extra messy.
Note: The ceilings in the living areas are low and under the lofts in the shed. If you're tall, it may feel a little cramped.
Cosmetic updates are being done so there is a bit of clutter at one end of the screened porch. All of the amenities are good, though. Thank you for your understanding.
If you need sleeping space for more than 2, please check out our other rental on the same property, Rose's Cabin. It sleeps 4, and has a fenced in area for dogs.
Thanks for checking us out!

Small quiet cabin in the woods. Owner communication was excellent. There were no issues. We would have liked a real oven, but there was a toaster oven and a countertop induction cooktop that worked just fine.
Just what I was hoping for! Trees, mountains, privacy, comfort... so amazing! The cabin was adorable, very well thought out, simple, comfortable, warm shower with good water pressure! Loved it so much. Close to State Parks and lots of trails, stuff to do.
Loved everything about the Cabin and the location. Charlotte was a pleasure to deal with and communicate with. Me and my wife will definitely be going again. Rest and relax and enjoy the great outdoors. At its best
It was amazing! Very quiet and peaceful. Exactly what I was looking for. The cabin was beautifully furnished. It was a perfect getaway and I'd highly recommend it!
Very cozy and comfortable little cottage tucked away in a very peaceful corner of the mountains. I plan to stay here again! Host was very cordial and responsive.The road in is a little rough, not a problem for me, really, just be prepared and aware and take it slow. I recommend this one!
This is my second time staying at the Gnome Hill Cottage. It's a perfect spot for some needed get-away time. It's quiet & isolated, yet not far from Travelers Rest or several trails. Charlotte is a very thoughtful & responsive host.
The cottage was exactly what we needed for our stay near Table Rock State Park. It is clean and comfortable with many thoughtful touches to make us feel welcome. We will stay there again when we are back in the area.
Great little cozy cottage. The screened in back porch is amazing. We spent 3 days exploring the close by state parks with awesome trails and waterfalls.
My husband and I came to the cabin for a little weekend getaway and to have a peaceful, quiet Thanksgiving holiday with our puppy and each other. The cabin was ADORABLE, super clean, well stocked with supplies, and we loved how isolated we felt, while still having excellent wifi. We were able to read, play videogames, watch Christmas movies, and relax! Absolutely would stay again!!

Loved our stay! So cute and cozy and supplied nicely with all your needs! Great hiking, winery, and close to good attractions. Nice respite from our normal daily grind. We will be back!
Perfect for hiking at Caesar’s Head SP and Dupont Forest
We only stayed 1 night, after a long day of hiking. It was perfect for our purposes. If you’re traveling from here back to Greenville, I can recommend getting breakfast at the TRee House Cafe!
