Great small house in tiny town
Great house with nice outdoor areas although you have to climb the hill for a view. Very clean and tasteful. Wifi for our phones was very challenging although it worked well on my laptop. Nice to have restaurant and coffee shop right across the street although they have limited opening hours. This town is also a magnet, apparently, for motorcycles so it gets pretty loud during the day with Harleys blasting away. Quiet in morning and at night so if you're out during middle of the day, no problem. Nice hikes and the Parkway are very close.

the location was secluded and the decor and property itself was gorgeous. The only thing I didnt like was landscapers outside making noise at 8:30 am on Saturday. But other than that, I would stay here again.

Merci bo que!
Thank you so much for the delightful stay! We loved the decor and everything about the house. We spent nights by the firepit, telling spooky stories, listening to mountain sounds and roasting hot dogs. We recommend the coffee/bookshop across the street. And we had a fun time at Linville Falls, hiking Carvers Gap and visiting Linville Winery. Thanks for your fantastic recommendations and a great stay! Merci,,,, Sophie, David, Katie, and Dan.

Amazing!
What a lovely chalet! Very comfortable and we LOVE the treehouse. Fabulously decorated inside and out. We even had some passerby compliment the landscaping. Took a short trip into Spruce Pine and ate at the Tropical Grill - highly recommended - food was amazing! Thank you for sharing such an amazing place! Rob&Kim, Lafayette Indiana

We enjoyed our stay here in the cottage. It was centrally located to a lot of hikes and exploring the area. We also met some very interesting local people. Thank you for providing a lovely place to “get away from it all” for our week’s stay. Kristi and Jed, Virginia

Beautiful Cottage
We had a wonderful anniversary stay at the beautiful La Petit Chalet. My decorator wife was smitten with the French inspired design of the interior. I was smitten with the exterior landscaping. Although the landscaping is only 10 years old, it looks like it has been there forever. I cannot imagine the amount of work it took to create the magical setting that exists today. The location is directly across 226A from the Little Switzerland Cafe and the bookstore, and while only a one minute walk away, they cannot be seen from the Chalet thanks to the gorgeous and dense landscaping. The cafe serves only lunch between the hours of 11 and 4, but you can order any of their delicious food to go and enjoy it later at a picnic on the Parkway or for dinner in the Chalet or the Treehouse. Their pulled pork BBQ was some of the best we have tasted and their whole smoked trout was delicious. The bookstore is also a coffee shop, and sells scrumptious pastries from 9 to 5 as well as providing free wifi. Cell service was pretty sketchy in this location for my T-Mobile SIM card, but a good signal was available up the hill in the tree house. The photos on the website are a very accurate representation of the property. You will not be dissapointed. David and Penny Lake Lure, NC

Perfect Cottage
It was a wonderful weekend, loved the house! The only complaint I have is the address takes you 1.5 hours away you MUST put in La Petite Chalet, Little Switzerland, NC. If you put in the address of the property you will be driving EXTRA. I met my sister there and we drove from two different starting points and both ended up at the wrong location. The rest of the house was WONDERFUL!

Perfect!
Sitting on the front porch enjoying the early morning mountain mist, sipping hot coffee as a yellow swallowtail floats by.....All is well in the world! This is not the first time we’ve been to Little Switzerland but it’s the first time we’ve stayed in the quaint and charming La Petite Chalet! We found some “treasures” at the local gem mine and walked on the georgous flowering bridge by Lake Lure. Today we are going to see the waterfalls, take a ride up to Roan Mountain to see the Rhododendrons, then off to the Biltmore. Our stay here was perfect! Thank you! Sarah D

A Happy Place
We thank you Jack for all of the color and whimsical touches that attracted me to your Swiss Chalet years ago... I’ve had my eye on this place for sometime now... and I finally found the perfect time to be here. My first trip since the Pandemic. So sweet is this place. My sister Cynthia’s 63rd birthday and also a special reunion with her college roommate Judy when they were in nursing school 42 years ago!! And last but not least, It was my pleasure to experience this magical Chalet nestled in wonderment of this storybook setting...where we all were happy to be together here at LaPetiteChalet.

Average
Enjoyed our Christmas get-a-way, loved the decor, however was not prepared for the high windows, no view of anything. The house was really cute, but was dusty, even tho it was comfortable, and the beds were great! If you are looking for total seclusion and no view of outside, this is for you, I'm sure hikers/kayakers would enjoy their stay here as they would be gone all day!
