"Peaceful", "enchanting" and "charming" are words you will use to describe this creek side cottage. From the robust trout stream in the backyard, to the screened porch that overlooks it, you will know that you are home! Open the doors and let the cool mountain air inside. 2 bedrooms upstairs share an updated bath, and there is an adorable in-law/guest suite downstairs with 1 bedroom, bath and a kitchenette. It even has it's own sitting porch! The updated kitchen is efficient & adorable.
