I stayed three weeks and felt very much at home in Mel's Country Cottage. I was welcomed and was frequently greeted as I came and went, visiting family in the area. I can't think of any detail for comfort or convenience that was not available. The cottage is cozy and tastefully decorated. Since this visit was during the worst of winter weather, I didn't get to enjoy all the extras on the property that would be fun during warm, sunny weather, so I look forward to another stay during warm months.

Super cute little cabin, really a tiny house. If you want to be in the country and enjoy a lovely property, this is your place. For me, I realized I would have liked to be closer to restaurant options and closer to where I was doing dog sports.

I was looking for quiet. I wanted to relax and read, undisturbed, and this place was better than I had hoped. The unit was clean very comfortable. It’s not a cabin (it’s not rustic at all) it’s a “tiny house” of clean contemporary decor and the amenities…just shrunk. The house is right next to the owner’s house, which was a little concerning when I first pulled up, but I never heard any one and only saw the owners on a couple occasions. The property is quite large, approximately 300 yds to the stream in the back which is where I spent every day. There was a hammock and camp chairs, a large tin roof covered area (with a bench swing) where i ducked under when some rain squalls moved through the area on a couple days. The sound of the stream and the birds was all I could hear with the pleasant exception of a few minutes of heavy rain in a metal roof. It was exactly what I wanted and I will certainly stay there again if I back in the area.

The property was absolutely beautiful as well as the interior of the cottage. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and taking in the sounds of nature. The farm animals were also very friendly as well as the owners. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a peaceful getaway with a country aesthetic. Will definitely stay here again!

Perfect property to relax and enjoy the outdoors. The cottage is nicely equipped for a 2 person stay with newer amenities. My wife looked forward to having a morning cup of coffee with the goats, and we took some time to explore the river frontage which is beautiful.

Nice Overnight Stay

This is a nicely furnished and very clean cabin. It is a few miles from Winston Salem and close to several area attractions. Also close to several restaurants in Walnut Cove. Try the Olympic Restaurant, you won't be disappointed. Mel's Country Cottage makes a great overnight stop if you are in the area. All of my questions were answered quickly by the owners. Try it, you'll like it.

Fabulous and Relaxing Place to Stay

Me and my husband just wanted a quick and easy place to get to not far from home and this was perfect. We wanted to go to Old Salem and Mt. Airy and this was a perfect place in between. The space was warm and inviting. There were snacks and fresh eggs to cook, if desired. We loved walking down to the creek and enjoying the beautiful grounds. The owners are super nice!!
