Thanksgiving stay

The property is quite large and roomy. Very good location for access to town. Kitchen is well stocked. The only drawback is the bath for the front bedroom is a bit small but that often is the case with historic houses.

Charming Southern Oasis

Wonderful place to stay in Morganton. Right next to downtown and on a quiet, tree lined street. The house was a charming gem - beautiful original floors, stunning trim, cozy, with a well-appointed eat-in kitchen. The upgrades, like HVAC, kitchen appliances, vents, and water pressure were very much appreciated. Communications were top-notch - almost instantaneous. Just an excellent experience overall. We will absolutely stay here again.

Lovely, quiet, relaxing retreat

Beautifully restored 18th century house in a quiet and convenient neighborhood. Very comfortable, very well equipped kitchen, lots of room. This was our base for travel to Asheville, Conover and Hickory to visit friends and attend wedding festivities. Very happy with our choice.

A Perfect Place to stay

The Gaithersburg House was amazing. It’s so close to the quaint downtown and everything it has to offer. So location was perfect. I loved learning about the history of the house and seeing it was just as fabulous. The owners are fantastic. They were overly accommodating and easy to reach for any questions you might have! If you’re interested in exploring this area I 100% recommend this house as a destination.

A Quiet Neighborhood Stay

The house is exactly as described. My husband and were on our way south and thought we would visit our daughter who lives in the Asheville area. Due to hurricane Helene, our daughter doesn't have drinkable water at her house. This house was great for being able to wash clothes and prep food and meals for her to take back home. The kitchen is well equipped. The kitchen table was great size for playing the games we brought as well as for eating meals and sitting around and chatting. We like to hike, but some trails in the area were closed due to storm damage. There was a nice city park not far driving distance from the house where we did lots of walking. We spent two nights at the house and enjoyed our time together there. It was so much better than staying in a hotel.

Better than expected!

The home is beautiful inside and out. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch with coffee in the mornings. It was very peaceful and quiet. The house was spotless and amenities abundant beyond what was listed. The host was very kind and helpful. So many touches and attention to detail that made it feel like home. The fresh flowers throughout the house were beautiful. Its close to everything! Walking distance to many fun places. Highly recommend!

Absolutely stunning

This property exceeded my expectations . The history in the home was unbelievable! I live close by to this home, but rented the Gaither House to have somewhere to get ready and dressed for my wedding. The house is very spacious, and beautifully decorated. I couldn’t have asked for more! The master bedroom was wonderful, the bed was very comfortable. We loved having access to the fireplaces when it was cool in the evening. Thank you so much for hosting us before my special day! Definitely one of the best places I have ever stayed in.
