Wonderful place! Like a cabin close to town!
We thoroughly enjoyed all the wildlife we saw out our window - deer, turkeys, many types of other birds and even a few bears! We had everything we needed thanks to a caring owner and property manager.

Gem in a great part of AVL
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Emily's Cottage. We saw bears, turkeys, groundhogs, and a wide variety of birds regularly in this private setting. Frank and Jesse were great communicators during the stay. The property itself has everything you could want for a 2B/2Ba cottage. Great location and very comfy beds. Caught a couple of fish at the lake! Would like to return next year.

We absolutely loved staying here. It was awesome. Have some great memories. The area is perfect and I loved seeing wildlife and being in a wooded area. The pond is beautiful and we had fun swimming! The house has everything you need. It is so cozy!

Charming Cabin
Dear Frank: After four great summer months in your charming cabin, we didn't want to leave. From strolling down the hill to the pond, counting the many varieties of birds and listening to their songs, having our coffee on the porch, morning walks around Beaver Dam Lake..., it was wonderful. The cabin was all we needed for relaxation and, thanks to the neighbors we could never have felt more welcome or ever had "fresher eggs." Best to All, Holly and Sid
