1 Bedroom Apartment in Cullowhee

Catamount Cottage is a quaint retreat for either a single traveler or a couple. This fully renovated studio cottage is situated on a private drive in a small residential area just a stone's throw from Western Carolina University. Originally built as a wood workshop by the first owner, a former WCU football coach, the cottage is tucked under the main house and has it's own private driveway.
The current owners wanted to honor the original vision by keeping the rustic exterior, but the inside of the cottage is brand new. This modern and upscale retreat is outfitted for a cozy stay. The kitchen, complete with granite countertops and an eat-in bar, has all of the amenities you might need if your preference is staying in and cooking for yourself. You can sink into the full-size bed and watch Netflix or read a book on the leather armchair. If there is work to do, you can utilize the dedicated high-speed internet and work at the counter-height bar or outside on the front deck.

Summary: Absolutely adorable, spotless, beautifully decorated small studio. My regret is not staying longer. Virtually adjacent to the CWU campus but secluded and remote enough that you will feel far away. Highly recommended. I will definitely stay here again.
