CREEKFRONT! Over 1/2 mile creekfront, walking trails, two private ponds for fishing-- 60+ acres of woods, creek & wetland. Right on a managed trout stream! GILI'S COVE COTTAGE...woods, nature, serenity. Fall asleep to the sounds of the rushing creek right outside your window. Enjoy morning coffee on the porch overlooking the creek, watch deer in the meadow and the geese in the pond. Fish for a trout dinner just steps outside the back door.

Two-bedroom/two-bath cottage with split plan for privacy, sleeps six. Living room + family room allows plenty of room for you and all your gear. The living room has a gas fireplace heater with two comfy recliners. The family room has a wall of windows overlooking the creek, with an oversized counter and wet bar. The all-season porch is screened in summer, but when the weather gets cool, the 360-degree windows allow you to still enjoy the porch, watching the creek for deer and beaver, and the gas fireplace and comfy chaise lounge provide a perfect spot for curling up with a good book. The kitchen is large, open and bright, and is fully equipped to handle meals for gatherings of all sizes. Off the kitchen is the laundry room with a wash-up sink, folding table and plenty of hanging space. Hi-speed internet with Wi-Fi means you'll never be out of touch. Also provided is a landline phone with free domestic long distance. The cottage has central heat & A/C. Pull-through driveway with carport keeps your vehicle clean and dry. The cottage sits on a wooded and lushly landscaped level lot for easy access.

Relaxing Getaway
This trip was exactly what we were hoping it would be…. a beautiful and comfortable home in a private and tranquil setting! The house was VERY clean and had everything we needed and then some! Linda does a wonderful job providing information about what is available in the rental as well as what the area has to offer. Our fur-babies loved the walking trails around the pond and by the end of the week would become frantic when they would see us getting ready to go for a walk. What really pushed it over the top for us were all of the personal touches left by our hosts (freshly cut flowers that we got to enjoy all week, yummy snacks from a local store, and a care package left for our daughter to discover waiting for her in her room upon our arrival)!! This is truly a special place and we are so thankful we had the opportunity to experience it!!

The Cottage was absolutely perfect for our winter getaway! Linda met us to check in and give us a tour. The Cottage was fully equipped with everything we could possibly need and was impeccably clean. Linda even had bowls and treats for our dog who came with us. We could not have had a better experience and will definitely be coming back for a Summer getaway!

What a beautiful, relaxing property! Linda (property owner) makes the reservation process easy and has provided for every need in the home itself. Her dedication to creating a carefree stay for her tenants is evident. The creek is beautiful, the mountain views from the valley are awesome and the walking trails provide a great way to enjoy the property. If it was possible to give more than 5 stars, I would. We will certainly be returning in the future!

Lovely experience, and so dog friendly
My husband and I had an awesome experience staying at Linda's cottage. From the moment she gave us the keys and showed us around we felt right at home. We were really impressed with the special touches which included fresh flowers, dog bones and homemade birthday cake bites for my husbands 40th birthday! This is what vrbo is supposed to be before every property became so impersonal and managed by rental companies. Additionally, the property is beautiful. We loved sitting in the creek, walking the beautiful, well maintained trails with our dog and fishing in the pond... my husband caught 10 fish and was super happy! Also, the cottage is so dog friendly... so much that she provides sheets for the furniture so if they do get on, it's no big deal. And last, our dog had an absolute blast, especially swimming in the creek. Do not hesitate to stay here. We wish we would have stayed the whole week!

No Words or Pictures Can Adequately Capture This Magnificent Property
Our 11 days here were a wonderful blessing! This bright, spacious cottage was meticulously clean; beautifully furnished, with an oh-so-comfy bed and linens; tastefully decorated; wonderfully equipped and perfectly organized. The grounds - secluded, serene and quiet except for the sounds of sweet birds visiting the feeders and the creek’s never-ending symphony; lovely natural landscaping with a lush moss carpet and wild flowers; and incredible, private walking paths through the surrounding meadow acres, around the ponds, and along the tree-shaded creek. Our cottage-time - we were lazy in the screened porch and sunroom, and next to the water and fire-pit. We puzzled; read; prayed together; played games; prepared yummy meals in the cooks-kitchen and on the grill. We explored country roads framed by mountains - overlooking farmlands, creeks, and rivers. Our National Forest ride to Lake Nantahala - amazing! We hiked and hiked, including an Appalachian Trail segment! Our senior Labrador enjoyed the less-strenuous paths at Clay County Park, the Lake Chatuge Recreation Area, and the Little Tennessee River Greenway. We took-in the Brasstown Bald views; and enjoyed the John Campbell Folk School, Craft Shop, gardens and walking-paths. We thank our incredible hosts, Linda and Jorge for their passionate guest service commitment which we experienced from our 1st inquiry; as we were personally welcomed upon our arrival; and throughout our entire stay. We can't wait to return.

Beautiful Getaway
Gill's Cove Cottage was everything the description said it would be and so much more. Mrs. Linda met us upon arrival and showed us around the home and went over where everything was located. We arrived a little later than planned but she was so accommodating. I was so impressed with how clean the property was from the get go. Definitely the cleanest vacation home I have stayed in. We enjoyed the creek and the trails attached to the property so much. We have 3 wild boys and there was plenty of things to keep them busy!

The perfect peaceful hideaway!!!!!
This place was a perfect piece of paradise for our family of 3 and our dog! We were looking to get away from the business of life living near Myrtle Beach and we couldn’t have asked for better! This place had everything we needed and then some! We were surprised with hospitality gifts for all including a treat bag for our dog! I loved the vases of wild flowers from the property placed on the counter and in the bathrooms! The creek provided peace and fun for all from floating on a tube (which was perfect for my 5 year old), soaking in the cold water, wading around, fishing, or just letting the sights and sounds of nature lift all the stress away! The property also has lovely walking trails alongside the creek, around the large pond, and to another hidden pond in the woods. Lots of animals to see and the Mountain View’s from the pond are breathtaking! We hated to leave and will definitely be returning!

A little piece of Heaven
While driving up into the property, Ms. Linda was waiting on us to give us the key and show us around. As soon as you hit the driveway, you feel at peace. The home and property are immaculate, very light and airy. Such beautiful natural light all throughout the house. Furniture nice and comfy. A few mornings I would go walking before everyone else in the house would wake - it was magnificent, seeing and hearing all the wonderful sounds. Hearing the stream flowing, the families of geese, birds chirping and seeing the deer roaming the fields....it was something I was truly in awe of. In the evening, my son and I would love to go to the pond and fish. After fishing we would go through the trails into the woods and walk about the creek and look for rocks and things. He enjoyed himself! Our family is already planning on coming back. ❤️

Immaculate and beautiful.
The cleanliness of the house was top notch. Kitchen was very well stocked with good quality pots and accessories. Host went above and beyond and had a special surprise for all 4 of our kids and us! The house has everything you can think of. We have zero issues with this property. We went to fish and the fishing wasn’t the greatest at the time but we still enjoyed ourselves. Very easy to get to and had beautiful landscaping and view of the creek. Perfect place to get away and escape. Host was very friendly and met us there to give us the keys and a tour. 100% recommend this house for a Hayesville stay!! Thanks again for letting us stay there.
