About this property

Pet friendly Little House, Fire pit, paddle boat, 2 hammocks, porch swing, grill

The little house is next to a 2 acre pond, in a small neighborhood, 15 minutes from Brevard and Rosman. Upstairs is a covered porch with a bench, and down stairs is another covered porch with a swing and laundry room. Inside is a Queen bed, full kitchen, and a three-quarter bathroom. Pet friendly. Outside is a fire pit and gas grill. This is the only house on the pond, and you will have your own dock with a paddle boat. East Fork River, Dupont, and Pisgah Forest are all nearby, which provide hiking, biking, and fishing. So bring your fishing poles/floats and swim at your own risk.
The pond may fluctuate depending on the seasons. It is out of my control and has a mind of its own. One day it may be full for months and then the next it may be empty. There is another dock that is for the neighbors. Almost a boat house without the rocking waves.
We are working on a firepit outside on the corner of the property, you can see where we have had a small fire before. Two hammocks are ready to enjoy around the fire pit, looking out at the pond. The big outside trash can is for bagged trash only. We also provide a propane grill that is just steps away from the kitchen. In the laundry room downstairs is a stackable washer/dryer, a water spigot with hose for rinsing off, pond/dog towels, and cleaning supplies. We are pet friendly.
Once you make a reservation I will send you more information and needed directions, GPS will take you somewhere else. We do provide a turnaround spot and parking. The driveway is somewhat narrow. We live a mile or so down the road and can be available when needed. I clean other vacation rentals as well as our own.
Check out Sassafras Mountain, which has a 360 degree view and is 15 minutes down the road out East Fork River, a fisherman's paradise. Living Waters is my favorite water falls to adventure on, it is a 30 minute drive up curvy 215, near the blue ridge parkway.

Comfortable, clean, worth nice little details. It was a very pleasant stay.

Everything needed for a weekend getaway, except maybe a couch. Nice seating outside on the porch, though.

Beautiful sights and peaceful tranquility

One of my daughters and I took this little getaway together. The Little House was perfect for our stay. It was tucked back off this quaint gravel road right on its own little pond. The wildlife noises at night and in the mornings were amazing. We got to see deer come drink from the pond in the early mornings while also getting to watch a family of ducks and also geese enjoy the pond. The Little House had everything we needed and the size was perfect. Also, Jessica was wonderful! My daughter and I were trying to find the best fishing spots and Jessica and her husband were so gracious to take time to chat with us to give us the rundown on our options. The checkin process and check out process were super easy and convenient. We will definitely be looking to come back again!

God’s Beauty and Serenity

Rustic lodging at its best without the distractions of fellow tourists and traffic! And you’ll find plenty to do, whether shopping and dining in downtown Brevard or hiking to one of the many waterfalls nearby! Just the right place to get away from it all!

Great Getaway

The house is small but very very nice. Neat little eat in kitchen with all the needed utensils. Very cool super comfy bedroom. Bathroom is updated and the hot water is great! Loved the porch. Didnt use the washroom. We were only there 2 nights. Loved the surrounding area. So jealous of the folks that get to live there year-round! Property owner was very gracious and informative. Everything you need to feel comfortable and enjoy your stay was supplied with the property. Loved the stay. I definitely recommend The Little House and I look forward to going there again!

False advertising for the pond in the ad.

The photos and description of the pond is false. There was hardly any water in the pond, more like a mud puddle. The water is NOT up the the dock shown in the picture, you have to go 15 to 20 feet out from the dock to where the water starts. The water is probably no more the 2 feet deep in the center. You have several feet of mud before you get to the water and green muck growing along the edge. Our stay was at the end of July, maybe there is more water in springtime but from the weeds growing along the edges the water has been low for some time. The place is small as advertised but was thinking would not spend much time inside anyway, we would sit out on the dock put tubes in the pond, maybe go for a swim. It wasn't even appealing to sit out and look at the mud puddle. We found other places and things to do during our stay. Would never rent this place again. Not sure I would go even if it was free.

A haven from a day of hiking

The Little House on the Pond was an oasis. It is secluded and quiet and we felt safe in the area. Everything was clean and the property was well maintained. The water level was low in the pond so we expected the mosquitoes to be crazy but they were not. We sat in the swing on the porch each night reading, talking about our day or just watching the fish and a couple of turtles. A most enjoyable stay.

Charming lovely getaway

It was exactly as described and shown in the pictures. It is a very lovely clean and quiet little cabin. I really enjoyed the pond and using the paddle boat. It was like being a kid again. My husband and I brought along our two dogs. They really enjoyed the pond as well. This is a great intimate getaway place for a couple or an individual. It's not really big enough for more than two people. (My husband was a little taken aback about how small it was. The entire cabin is probably only around 150 square feet. I loved it and thought it more than adequately provided for what we needed. I had made the booking so I knew what we were getting into but I don't think he was as clear LOL.) There is also a very nice swing underneath the cabin you can sit out there with a glass of wine and look over the pond as the Sun is setting. I would definitely return again and highly recommend it. At the suggestion of the owner we went to living Waters waterfall. It was very picturesque and highly recommend. You will have to park in the lodge there in their parking space but they didn't seem to mind at all. Also went to looking Glass falls. Gorgeous. It is a swimming hole so bring some swimsuits. Do not use the GPS directions from living Waters to Glass falls it will get you lost in the middle of nowhere. Head back into town and take an alternative route.

Quiet Weekend Getaway

This is the cutest little house! We wanted a quiet, out of the way place to recharge and this was perfect. We were a little bummed that the pond was so low so we couldn't take the paddleboat out, but that couldn't be helped, just the nature of the weather. It rained while we were there so we just sat on the swing and watched the rain on the pond. For hours. So peaceful. We loved and it would definitely go back!

Sweet lil place

Perfect little place to stay to enjoy the local sights. Our goal was to fly fish all the streams we possibly could in 5 days. Mission accomplished! Morning coffee and happy hour evenings were spent on that porch swing! Very comfortable bed, lots of hot water showers, convenience of stocked kitchen to prepare our own meals, all in a private and serene setting. Excellent communication with Jessica, too! Would definitely stay at the lil house again! Thank you!

Everything is as advertised. It’s a tiny cabin, located in a mountain community, on a private road, with a private pond, and provides endless opportunities to visit the surrounding areas. The owners are available 24/7 and will help you in anyway possible. Five days here and I’m relaxed and recharged and ready to face life again. Thank you Jesse and Levi. Will definitely be back soon.

About the host

Host profile image
We worked on this little house for at least 3 years and finished it in January 2020, while raising children and working full time. We have added unique touches and enjoyed the journey. Hope you make your own memories and keep coming back.

Why they chose this property

My family is from here, my husband was born and raised across the pond. I was raised in Balsam Grove. We feel extremely blessed to have the opportunity to have grown up here and now get to raise our family here too.

What makes this property unique

You're welcome to use our Paddle boat, as long as you put it back. There are some life jackets and pond towels in the laundry room.
Dupont, Pisgah national Forest, and the East Fork River are not far away to enjoy biking, hiking, and fishing.
