Jaybird Cottage
From my initial phone call, the rental procedure was efficient. We loved the cabin with a roaring fire and a foot of snow outside. The 3 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms worked well with our family of five. The kids enjoyed the game room, tubing in the neighborhood and skiing at Appalachian Ski Mountain on Sunday. The kitchen was well-stocked and the dining room table worked great for meals and board games. We all wanted to stay longer!!

Super clean & well maintained gem!
We were looking for a place close to Hawksnest tubing & Sugar Mountain for skiing and allowed our dog. This cabin was so clean for allowing pets, excellent location, and well kept. We enjoyed our stay and if kids didn't have to get back to school would have for sure spent a couple more nights.

Quiet cabin in a neighborhood, perfect for being able to walk the dogs or take a morning stroll. The rustic charm of Jaybird Cottage brings a sense of home. Everything is ready for you when you get there. The house is smart lock equipped so no key or going to the rental office to check in. The entire stay was peaceful, there was plenty for the whole family to do, from reading a book on the porch swing to enjoying an evening of games in the game room. The cabin is within minutes of Beech Mountain, downtown Banner Elk, Boone, and historic Valle Crucis. My family will definitely be staying there again.

Wonderful stay. Excellent location.
Jaybird Cottage is centrally located to everything. We spent most of our stay exploring the area, but wish we had an extra night or 2 to enjoy the cottage. Would definitely stay again.

A Hidden Gem!
We had a wonderful stay at Jaybird Cottage! The house had everything we needed and was extra cozy, clean, and special for our family. Our kids especially enjoyed the basement games and our golden retriever was right at home! We would definitely stay at Jaybird Cottage again in the future.

Wonderful family Christmas
We loved Jaybird Cottage. It was beautiful and fit our family just right. Our grown children enjoyed having two gathering spaces and the foosball was a bonus! The kitchen was well equipped, we did not go out for food at all and had everything we needed to cook three meals each day. We loved the back porch with swing too. The weather was so warm that we were able to eat out there too! We will definitely try to book this property again,
