Welcome to Carolina Wren Cottage! Named for a charming local songbird, this property is located in the new High Hemlock community 15 minutes from Main Street Blowing Rock, and is surrounded by trees providing a calming setting.

Pops of color throughout the cabin are sure to bring a smile to everyone's face. There are two bedroom suites here. The master bedroom features a King bed, flat screen TV and a full bathroom with a tiled walk-in shower. The second bedroom at the other end of the cabin is nearly identical with a Queen bed, flat screen TV and also has it's own full bathroom with a tiled walk-in shower. As an added luxury element, both bathrooms have heated floors. Step outside onto the back deck to enjoy a cool evening, and enjoy a dip in the Bullfrog Spas hot tub.
