About this property

Adorable Main St. Cottage, Couples Retreat

Welcome to Sugartoad Cottage, the perfect couples retreat nestled in the heart of Mathews Main Street. The cottage now has a new private hot tub deck for guests! Stay in the heart of downtown, but still feel tucked away with privacy.

We love hosting and our goal is to create an VRBO experience that has hotel-quality amenities. Your room rate is the rate; no extra cleaning fees here!

The bedroom features a king sized bed with a memory foam mattress, thick comforter, and microfiber white sheets. Attached to the bedroom is a large bathroom with brand new washer/dryer, shower and appliances. The large barn door to the bedroom opens to the living room giving an open concept feel to the space.

Spacious living areas include a living room with a 55" smart TV, (Netflix & Prime provided) and an electric fireplace conjoined with a dining room table for meals, working from home, or board game nights - games are provided!

The kitchen is fully equipped with brand new appliances including a retro fridge, farmhouse sink, small oven and stove, coffee bar, and basic necessities. We have a Keurig, French press, coffee grounds, K-cups with Starbucks coffee, teas and hot cocoa, sugar and cream in the fridge.

One of the highlights of our property is the spacious backyard. Unwind surrounded by tropical plants, flowers overflowing from the window boxes and numerous outdoor seating areas. A hammock, 2 large decks (one with privacy walls and a brand new 5 seater hot tub), a picnic table and stumps around the Solo-stove fire pit give you plenty of options to enjoy the evenings. We provide wood and starters for the fire pit.

A privacy fence ties in the atmosphere to give you privacy from surrounding businesses. The charm continues as you sit and relax on the rocking chairs on the front porch, where you can sit and sip your morning coffee with views of the historic district, a mural, the library and Saturday’s “dollar book store” traffic. On a lucky weekend you might hear music up the street playing at the visitor center or Arts Center.

Explore the vibrant community surrounding our cottage. These attractions can be found within walking distance from cottage!

Charming

This adorable charming cottage was such a great place to stay. It exceeded our expectations. The flowers and greenery made it seem like you were in a tropical oasis. The place was so cozy and was perfect for the two of us. The front porch rockers were great for enjoying our morning coffee. The back deck was nice to sit and relax. The hot tub was in and not yet ready but is going to be a great addition. Emily & Will have made this place so enjoyable. I highly recommend..

Just right for a get away for two!

A lovely cottage with everything we needed to be comfortable for a short get away. A good location for antiques shopping and small local museums. Excellent bed and linens. We will recommend.

Perfect Little Cottage

From the moment we stepped into the cottage, we felt at home. Every little attention to detail was nothing short of perfection! I was also comforted to know my family knew this family. There is nothing like a small town. I will definitely return!

Perfect weekend

This cottage is so amazing! We didn't have to drive anywhere except the beach and enjoyed walking around the little town of Mathews. The farmers market and bookstore on Saturday was an extra treat! The cleanliness and decor of the cottage was perfection and it felt like home for the weekend. Perfect quiet spot for a slow weekend away!

Fabulous

Beautiful little cottage right off Main Street in quaint, lively, very walkable Matthews with good restaurants. Hosts have anticipated all needs down to personal as well as tasty treat flourishes. Make sure to go at least on Friday to be there for the Saturday farmers market.

Hidden Gem in Mathews

My wife and I have done a getaway every year for our wedding anniversary. This makes 22 years. Sugartoad Cottage immediately has vaulted to our top three locations! The accommodations are not only gorgeous and clean, but Will and Emily’s attention to every detail is amazing! We would have extended our stay as soon as we walked in the door, but someone had already booked behind us!
