Can’t imagine a more relaxing spot

Stayed with my husband and father-in-law while in town for a nearby wedding and all three of us instantly fell in love with the place. Perfect size for the three of us, cozy and charming with so many options for sitting and enjoying the outdoors or indoors, so clean and well maintained, so much to offer! It really felt like a comfortable home and not just a place we were renting for a few days. Not to mention the area itself is so quiet and beautiful. We had a wonderful time and would come back in a second!

Always a pleasure

We’ve stayed at Bluebird Cottage several times and have never been disappointed. The “Welcome Back”card from Barbie was a nice touch. We also loved the addition of televisions in both bedrooms. It’s a great spot to sit back and enjoy the peace and quiet of the lake.

Best Hidden gem in the upstate

This is probably the best place that I have ever stayed! The attention to small details and the welcome gifts made us feel right at home from the moment we walked into the door. The Beauty and the peaceful quiet on the lake are unmatched. We got to go out do some hiking and come back just relax and enjoy our time together. Thank you so much Barbie and Steve for sharing your beautiful Cottage with us!

Amazing!

We had a wonderful stay on our girls getaway! Can’t say enough about how beautiful and cozy the cottage is. As long as you make a grocery trip prior to arrival, you don’t have any reason to leave if your stay is about relaxation. It so quiet, no noisy traffic. The lake is peaceful, I could just sit and look at it all day! I text pics to my husband while there, he said he’d like to stay there a week but it’s no pets are allowed so we wouldn’t be able to book a trip, we don’t travel without our fur babies (Yorkies). Other than that, it’s a perfect retreat!

A GEM at Mtn Rest Lake!

The bluebird cottage is a very special place. Clean, cozy, well decorated with a great host. It has EVERYTHING you need to escape the hustle and bustle of life! We enjoyed sitting on the back porch looking at the peaceful lake and also a little fishing off the pier. We would recommend this property to anyone who needs a BREAK and just needs to slow down and relax.
