SO close to Tryon

It’s hard to know where to stay for a trip to Tryon. Many lodgings advertise as being “close,” but this one seriously IS close, like 7-8 min drive close. We prioritize that, so this was a great spot for us. House just as pictured — brand new, very clean. This house plus another similar rental are close together, but the two houses are really out in the woods. We thought it was cool to be away from other houses, but you do need to drive a bit from other nearby houses to get here. Beds comfortable, water hot, nice to have Netflix on TV. Highly recommend, especially if showing at Tryon.

Cozy, private, yet close to activities

This is an adorable new cabin in a very private wooded area and yet it is very convenient to Tryon International Equestrian Center, Asheville, Landrum, Lake Lure, etc. Nicely appointed and decorated. Very clean. It's the perfect size for 2-4 people. Loved faintly hearing the nearby cattle on occasions. So peaceful. Kelli and her family were so accommodating and always available to answer any questions I had. They are very kind, hard working and loving. I hesitate to say any more, because I wish I could keep it a secret! I hope to come back very soon!

Secluded but convenient to TIEC

Very cute and well decorated. Was located on a residential property with another rental. The place was clean and ready when we got there. Very comfortable and about six minutes drive from Tryon equestrian center. We did not realize how isolated the place would be back on the woods or that it would require a gravel driveway/road back to the property itself. For two women staying with teen daughters it did feel a bit more secluded than we were expecting since we were coming and going after dark/before sunrise. That may be someone else's cup of tea, however! It was definitely quiet and private. Could use new bathroom towels, and the back sliding door was having some issues with locking but we figured it out. Beds were comfy. Thanks for the hospitality!
