Charming Historic Home within Walking Distance to Downtown
Take a step back in time and stay in the charming Walcott Cottage built in 1874. We are conveniently located within three blocks to downtown Broad Street and within the historic Dawson Street neighborhood. High ceilings, original heart pine floors, with modern conveniences, it's the perfect southern experience while in the City of Roses. With two bedrooms and two bathrooms on the main floor along with a third bedroom and home office on the second floor, you'll have everything you need. A full kitchen, living room, TVs, washer/dryer, mudroom, and outdoor yard, you'll have plenty of space to unwind and enjoy your vacation in our charming southern town. Our family purchased Walcott Cottage in 2007.........over its life, the house has been a private residence, a flower shop, and an antiques store. It is a jewelbox of a house, and we hope you will unwind, enjoy walking around the neighborhood, and experiencing this special place. We can't wait to have you!

I love quirky old houses. This one was so interesting, which made for a really fun stay. Location was very convenient. Would definitely stay here again!
My family and I had a wonderful stay at Walcott Cottage. The house is so charming and a short walk from Thomasville’s adorable downtown. While the cottage has the charm that often comes with being a historic home, it also has all the modern conveniences we needed to make it comfortable—dishwasher, garbage disposal, updated bathrooms, WiFi, etc. It was also immaculately clean—something I greatly appreciated! Our host, Dorothy, was very welcoming and communicative. We will definitely stay here again if we are back in the area.
My family and I stayed at this beautiful property as we were in town for a golf tournament. This was our second visit to Thomasville, GA and this town NEVER ceases to amaze us! The people in Thomasville are the most kind and genuine people anywhere! This cottage was just a perfect example of this. Plenty of space, super clean, and so close to the historic down town. We walked everywhere! We would ABSOLUTELY stay ant this property again and again!
Would highly recommend! Christmas time in Thomasville is always special but to stay within walking distance of downtown was the icing on the cake!! Thank you for the wonderful memories. See you next year Thomasville.
One of bedrooms upstairs was furnished as an office and did not include a daybed or anything to allow its use as sleeping space. The steps are very steep and no upstairs bath so requires going down steps possibly during night.Not optimal for very old or very young. No microwave so unable to sterilize bottles for infant. Very limited soap etc. For this price 300/night with all fees.
