Loved Crimson Cottage and Chimney Rock!

My family and I recently stayed in Crimson Cottage and we absolutely loved it! It's a charming older cottage, which reminded me of when I went to stay with my grandma when I was a little girl. It was extremely clean and well maintained, but the photos do not do it justice. There was plenty of room for my boyfriend and I, my parents, my brother and his wife, and my 2 teenage daughters, who loved the game room and even let us go upstairs a few times to play poker with them! The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and we enjoyed roasting marshmallows in the fire pit in the back yard. We walked into to village and had some really good clam chowder for lunch at Medina's Village Bistro, which Heather (the lady who checked us in) recommended. It was so good, we went back there for dinner! The shops are really cutesy and we hiked in Chimney Rock Park. As my girls said, the views are awesome!! We noticed another review didn't like the beds, but we found them extremely comfortable. The manager told us they had recently bought new pillow top mattresses and they were very comfy. All in all, a great stay and we will definitely be back this summer so my Dad can walk to the River Walk to fish.

Owner's Response: So glad you enjoyed your stay in Crimson Cottage! You were great guests and we appreciate your taking such good care of our cottage. I'm glad you enjoyed exploring the shops in Chimney Rock Village and had fun in Chimney Rock State Park. Please do plan on coming back in the summer to enjoy swimming, boating and fishing on Lake Lure, which is only 1 mile from the cottage. We also have zip lining and lots of new hiking trails for you to explore. This winter, we are working on the Flowering Bridge so you will be able to walk across the bridge to Lake Lure and Morse Park. Thanks again and remember repeat guests at Crimson Cottage receive a 10% discount off a future stay.
