Photos and Description of the Saluda vacation cottage rental
3 br/2 full bath sleeps 8

New 3 br/2ba home brought to you by Cottages of Dark Corner where you and your family or friends will enjoy the privacy of wooded acreage, waterfalls, creeks, and of course our famous mountain views. The 12x24 deck overlooks the view. Have a warm soak in the spa and look out over the view after your day with the goats at the Carl Sandburg home in Hendersonville, taking in the Biltmore house in Asheville, or horsing around at FENCE in Landrum. You might prefer to stroll the charming shops and eateries right here in Saluda, or spend your days hiking here at Dark Corner or DuPont Forest or one of many other local outdoor recreational areas. From here, you are minutes from excellent kayaking, hiking, biking, fishing, and golf as well as shopping, antiques, excellent live theater, art galleries, historical sites dating back to the Revolutionary War, and many museums and folk artisans.

Further details for this vacation cottage rental in Saluda, North Carolina

New in Body, Rich in Family History:

The first Bear's Den was originally home to my husband Carl's grandparents. Those of you who have already stayed with us here at Cottages of Dark Corner may have seen the original Bear's Den, much loved but long abandoned on the mountainside between the Pout House and Cynthia's Peak. We were able to save the Pout House, but the old Bear's Den was beyond our help, so we took it down to make way for a new Bear's Den. Many years ago, the cottage was named for its original occupant, TR Baumgartner, who was known in the family as 'a grouchy old bear.' A wooden plaque naming the house was made for him sometime (we think) in the 1960s and has found an honored place in the new home. Visit our website to learn more about our history here.

PERFECT!

Review Submitted: October 19, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2011
The owners were EXTREMELY EASY to deal with, directions were exact, location is PERFECT to go anywhere in the area, house is in GREAT condition! We travel a lot and have rented numerous cabins and homes ~ this one met all of our expectations and has FANTASTIC SCENERY! We weren't there long enough to use the hot tub on the deck but, we hope to return at some point and get use of it then! You won't be disappointed, I'm very particular!

Mountain Home Rental

Review Submitted: October 6, 2011 Date of Stay: September 2011
Spent a weekend with my wife and dogs. It was very secluded and relaxing, we had a great time. There were trails for dogs to walk. Everything provided except food and clothing. Beautiful view of mountains from the deck, wish the leaves were turning, it would have made the view even better. Hot tub on deck as well as wireless internet and DVD player.

Exceptional

Review Submitted: April 26, 2011 Date of Stay: April 2011
I'm sorry we didn't get to meet.
We all enjoyed everything. Lots of nice room and the deck and hot tub were wonderful. We so enjoyed watching the trees turning greener over the valley every day.
Also--thanks for Cinderella! We were all missing our pets so it was a pleasure to have her stop by everyday and visit.
