About this cottage rental

Welcome to Rock Hill Cottages! We now have the Gate Cottage and the Dairy Barn (separate listing--VRBO#51380894 available for short term rental! Kick back and relax in this calm, remote, stylish space. The Gate Cottage is located just inside and up the hill from our front gate; hence, the "Gate Cottage". Our Tennessee farm is at the very end of a dead-end road, with little to no traffic. Once you are here, you can put your feet up and relax, with few passersby, and no streetlights. Have a weekend or more away from it all, whether to read, write, rest, hike, fish, kayak from or to our creek--there are endless things to do, or do nothing at all.

The space
Enter from the front porch into the living area, with the fully appointed gourmet kitchen, laundry, shower and half-bath on the main floor. Upstairs is one large bedroom with a queen bed (Temperpedic Mattress), cast-iron bathtub, windows surrounding with great natural lighting, with a small room with two twin mattresses on the floor for either kids or a second couple. There is another half-bath upstairs, gas logs, vaulted ceilings, lush "Luxome" bamboo linens creating a spa-like retreat like no other.

Guest access
The entire house is available to guests, with the exception of an owners' closet. Guests have full access to the entire 150 acres to explore, excluding the owners' home on the hill, and the Dairy Barn house in the barnyard. Additionally, Bradshaw Creek is running through the property, which ties into the Elk River, so fishing, swimming, and kayaking are all available to you.

In the barnyard we have a slide and kid's hay fort for children to play, with adult supervision.

Recent additions to the Gate Cottage include its own private 5-foot round tub which can be warmed in the cooler months, and cooled in the summer months. Also new to the property is a fire pit and four Adirondack chairs, located behind the Gate Cottage, with firewood provided.

Need to work while visiting? The cottage has dependable (FIBER! 320 download speed, 304 upload speed) internet, and is quiet and away from distractions, as the Gate Cottage is separate and apart from the owners' home and Dairy Barn house in the barnyard.

Need a larger space? Consider our Dairy Barn Cottage, which is also on the property and sleeps 12 people and allows pets! It can be found on VRBO #51380894.

This was arguably the best rental we have ever stayed in. The cottage is absolutely beautiful, a stunning blend of stonework (done with stone from the farm), antique furniture, modern luxuries and a cozy atmosphere. The kitchen packs functionality into a smaller space, but does not feel restrictive. We cooked most of our meals considering how far out of town we were, and never had a complaint. Everything you need is there!The cottage sits on the hill above a meadow with pigs and my granddaughters loved taking our kitchen scraps down to them each morning. We loved harvesting vegetables from the garden for our meals, and the meat raised on the farm is delicious!The creek was perfect for cooling off, and the girls found lots of cool rocks and treasures as they wandered upstream. The hosts, Jimmy and Leigh, were beyond welcoming and hospitable. They made sure to give us space, but we really enjoyed their company! They even had us over for supper a couple times during our stay.Overall, we can't say enough good things about our experience. The cottage is close enough to town that we went to Ardmore, Pulaski, Huntsville, and as far as Cullman and Ethridge (which has a wonderful Amish community- we got lots of groceries there)!We will certainly be back!

This Gate Cottage was what I expected and more. Owners thought of everything you would not think of. We even had fresh eggs in the kitchen when we arrived. Very peaceful and relaxing. Loved seeing fireflies and the Milky Way.
