Whether you’re looking for outdoor adventure and exploration in the nearby Blue Ridge Parkway and Mountains, or just a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of life, the Fern Cottage provides just the right combination of luxury and convenience. Enjoy modern amenities with style and comfort, while surrounded by all the beauty of nature. From the furnished deck to the two bedrooms complete with comfy queen beds and private bathrooms, everything has been thoughtfully designed to ensure a perfect stay. After a day of fun, take advantage of the Weber charcoal grill! You will love the seclusion of the area, where you can hear only the birds sing with none of the distractions of the city. That’s what Fern Cottage is all about: a place to unwind, relax, and create special memories that will last a lifetime.

Somake yourself at home…you won’t believe how quickly you’ll forget the rest of the world exists! Please be mindful that no pets and no smoking are allowed, and any evidence of either may incur a $250 penalty. We kindly ask that you do not move furniture and keep the Cottage clean and presentable upon check out for the next guests. A local phone for 911 and local calls is provided, as well as enhanced cell phone coverage with a cell booster. Now come on over and enjoy the best trip of your life!
Just a few reminders:
1 - NO Pets allowed, we have other properties you can bring FIDO
2 - Absolutely NO Smoking of any kind
3 - Please do not move furniture
4 - Keep it clean. When you leave it should look the same as you entered, with the exception of bed linens and towels
5 - Remember it's our home, so treat it with respect
6 - The grill is a small Weber charcoal table top.
7 - PLEASE NOTE THAT THE FIREPIT IS NOT PART OF FERN COTTAGE. PLEASE DO NOT USE.
8 - There is limited cell coverage at the Cottage. Verizon picks up well, but AT&T does not. We have added a Cell booster that helps, but sometimes you will need to step on the porch for a signal. We suggest using WiFi Calling if you need it.

Wonderful cabin, secluded, very clean, and just as advertised
Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024

The cottage was much larger inside than we expected and it was so convenient that each couple had their own full bath attached to their bedroom. The cottage was spotless and provided everything we needed for a restful weekend away. We were conveniently located to many attractions of the area and even got to experience Mount Airy's Autumn Leaves festival and the Doe Run Farm Sunflower Maze. We recommend Fern Cottage and would love to stay on our next visit to the area.

We loved staying here. Everything was clean, decorated so well and was so cozy and warm. The location was perfect! We were a little concerned when we texted the contact about the locks not working and never heard back. Also, we were also mildly annoyed because one of the neighbors stopped by to semi-rudely question why we were walking around, and said there had been break-in recently. She even asked us which house we were staying in and stared at us accusingly. When we asked if she was the owner, she admitted that no, she wasn’t - and that she lived down the hill (we were uphill, so she must have been watching us). It was a little creepy and strange and took the wind a bit out of our sails, when we were in a great mood and enjoying the view. So be rest assured! While the locks may not work, the “resident Karen” does! She is a neighborhood watch of one, ready to defend things and houses that aren’t even hers… But overall, the lock issue was nothing and the place was immaculate. They had whole milk and cereal and coffee. And the neighbor lady

Enjoyed a two- night stay at cozy and well-appointed Fern Cottage. Only a very short walk to see spectacular views of the Blue Ridge as well as Pilot Mountain and the Sauratown range. Very friendly and helpful residents in neighborhood. Especially enjoyed meeting Carter, next-door neighbor who was very friendly and interesting, and as part of his looking after the property, gracious enough to check on my hot water setting following a recent power outage in area.
