Billie's Cottage was by far the BEST VRBO we have ever had the pleasure of enjoying. It's the perfect size for 4 guests - we were two staying overnight with our daughter visiting during the day.
The Cottage is immaculately clean, with comfortable mattresses, plenty of blankets for the "Cyclone Bomb" that moved through the area, an easy to use heating system which kept us warm, abundant hot water and during the sunny days, the sunshine streaming through the south facing windows created a cozy indoor setting despite the below freezing temps outside.
The cottage had the homiest atmosphere - due to the thoughtful touches Billie has provided - with comfortable living room furniture, throw rugs, lamps, stainless cookware, a terrifically quiet dishwasher, and a front load washer/dryer and drying rack. We felt much at home and enjoyed our time "hanging out" with our daughter in the inviting and comfortable space.
The cold weather prevented our spending much time on the back deck or front porch, but we were nevertheless, impressed with the privacy and furnishings both had along with the dormant gardens of perennials, vining plants and shrubs she has loving created around the yard. I can only imagine how lovely the gardens are in full bloom.
The location of the cottage encouraged us to walk all over Weaverville - to the nearby restaurants, shops, grocery stores, pharmacy and the adorable downtown park. We always looked forward to returning to our Weaverville "home away from home".
An added treat was the email interaction with Billie and learning some of the history of the cottage and of Weaverville itself. The Library has a museum in the basement which highlights the history of this "Dry Ridge" - definitely worth a visit.
Billie also checked with us during the coldest of the "cyclone bomb" weather to make sure all was well with us and the cottage.
Many thanks, Billie, for providing this incredible space for our small family holiday gathering. Your "just the right
amount " of holiday decorating, set the tone for our family time, creating the setting for enjoying our brief two weeks together and making memories we all will cherish.
