Mountain Lake Cottage- Cozy cottage with lake view

Welcome to Mountain Lake Cottage located in a peaceful, family oriented community on White Oak Mountain. Relax on the porch overlooking the lake, a perfect spot for morning coffee or evening wine; gather around the gas fire pit on chilly nights for storytelling; take a walk through the woods where you'll find a canoe to paddle around the lake. Kids of all ages will enjoy the game room which is outfitted with a smart TV, ping pong table, corn hole, and board games. Venture out to discover the area. Visit Tryon International Equestrian Center which has world class competition, concerts, restaurants, shops and much more. Neighboring towns of Tryon, Saluda and Landrum all have their unique appeal where there is always something going on. Venture further out to the larger cities of Asheville, Hendersonville, Greenville, Spartanburg all within an hours drive.
Mountain Lake Cottage is comfortably furnished and will accommodate up to 7 people in 3 bedrooms. The kitchen is outfitted with enough cookware and small appliances for the average cook. All linens and towels are provided along with a generous starter supply of the basic paper products / supplies for the kitchen and bath.
Come enjoy the serenity of small town mountain life and choose our sweet cottage as base camp.

Great place to stay

Excellent, but that steep road is a teeeny bit of a deterrent to want to leave and visit the area, especially in dark or coming back.

Great little get-away

This is a gem of a property at the top of a mountain! The road is a bit tricky to navigate, but once you get used to it, it's easy. Amazing views, waterfall along the way, this house is quiet, clean and peaceful. Many days I was able to work outside on the deck, enjoy the view and sounds.

Family Getaway

Perfect place to get away from it all and relax in the peaceful solitude of a gorgeous mountain setting, surrounded by the sounds of nature. Really enjoyed the spectacular Shunkawauken Falls on the way up and expansive view from the top of White Oak Mountain.
