Perfect little getaway

If you're looking for a quiet place to stay within driving distance to beautiful mountains and scenery this place is perfect. Everything was clean including the nice warm hot tub and the hostess was easy to communicate with. We were only able to stay the one night but can't wait to go back.

Tiny home with big views

The tiny home was a perfect place for my husband and I to getaway. It was cute and comfy. Located beside a flowing creek and a beautiful lot. It was a thirty minutes drive from the Pretty Place, Cesar's Head State Park and Jones Gap.

Cute Little Cabin for Two

We were only able to spend one night here, but really enjoyed our stay. You can hear the creek gurgling (but not from inside) and it was quite pleasant laying in bed listening to the thunderstorm outside. Would definitely recommend for a couple getaway.

Peaceful cabin

Nice peaceful cabin in the woods. Everything worked as expected, cabin location was exactly what we were looking for, located next to multiple national parks made driving easy. Favorite part was making s’mores by the campfire with the creek running behind the property

Cute Cozy Cabin

Cute Cozy Cabin for two located in Pickens SC. This cabin is in a great location. You can be in Easly SC or Greenville SC within 20 minutes. There’s a lot of state parks nearby with Mountain View’s, Creeks, waterfalls, and hiking trails. The bed was comfortable. We enjoyed listening to the creek while sitting in the hot tub.

Relaxing little getaway

It’s a very cozy small house that feels like a little cabin. It has everything you could need. The bed was amazing - best we have both slept in a while. It is not far from Table Rock state park, and there is a general store and restaurant nearby as well. I definitely would come back again for a relaxing little getaway.

Just What I Needed

This tiny home was just perfect for the peaceful weekend I was seeking! With a creek, fire pit, and hot tub, it has everything you need for a relaxing getaway. Pickens is cute little place to shop and eat. Table Rock is so close. And Mary Ann made check in smooth and easy. My best friend and I will be staying here again when we need some us time.
