We will let you know of any impending hazardous weather when you book with us.

We needed a last minute booking as we were coming down to volunteer with hurricane relief and hadn't found lodging yet. Judith responded right away and allowed to us to book on juat a few hours notice. The guest house was cute and cozy, with so many extras (snacks, drinks, detergent, etc.). Even though the suite was attached to the owners house, it felt private and quiet. We had a great stay and would absolutley cone back!

We (me, husband and 10 yr old) stayed for 3 days for my husband's birthday. This little rental was perfect! It was clean and welcoming. There were extra amenities like snacks, toiletries and other items we've normally always brought ourselves to rentals. You were within walking distance of 2 restaurant, a coffee shop/book store and a few other kitche shops. It was a great location to stay!

Weekend mountain getaway
Wonderful stay at comfy cozy mountain home. You could hear the hosts a tiny bit but could tell they did all they could to give privacy and seclusion. It was very negligible and the place was so comfortable! Great bathroom, good cooking area, great view! The porch was wonderful and the light coming in the main windows in the mornings was delightful. All the little touches were there. We picked up extra wood and had a fire each night. The hosts had kindling and paper to start it. This was a really nice stay, we highly recommend it.

Little Switzerland fiasco. DID NOT SAY THERE!! Arrived at 2:45 PM - no one home and no directions on how to access property. Contacted Expedia using their virtual assistant explained the situation and after 30 minutes of back and forth texts referred me to an agent . The phone signal was weak but was able to first speak to Mustafa who set up a case number - 117168824. Unfortunately loss the signal and called back a second time and spoke to Jesus. At this point we had been waiting for over one hour outside the property with bugs all around us. This was suppose to be our 3 day stay to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Explained everything to Jesus and told him that we had been waiting over one hour and that we had ENOUGH. We decided to return home. He said he would try to contact the host and to give him a few more minutes - after another 10 minutes he came on the line and said no one picked up the phone. I this point we started driving home. We were in conversation with Jesus who stated that he would process a cancelation and full refund. He also offered us a free night stay for our troubles. I was hesitant as we had decided to head home but told him to try - at this point we received a text at 4:12 PM from the host providing us with access instructions to the properly. Her text stated that we should have received access instructions from VRBO two days ago and she does not know why they were not sent??? We texted her back that it was too late and heading home

A hidden gem
I was here to visit a few friends at the Little Switzerland Inn and needed to find a place to stay in and stumbled upon this hidden gem. The property is nestled on a hill, I have a very low car so I was very glad to have a paved road and my own space to park safely overnight. The suite was very spacious, had everything I needed to make a quick meal, and clean after myself. The view from the balcony was amazing as I watched the fog dissipate in the morning while having breakfast. It was very peaceful and quiet and I must have slept like a baby during the night. I would absolutely stay here again! Thanks for letting me stay at your wonderful place.

My husband and I spent two nights in the Little Switzerland Guess House during the height of the fall color season. Our host was especially helpful, giving us information on the most scenic hikes and mountain views to take full advantage of the fall scenery. She also had some really good restaurant recommendations! We loved our short stay and look forward to visiting again!!

Great Location & Amazing Host
My son, a close friend and I took a trip to the area to ride our motorcycles for the weekend and had an amazing time. The area is beautiful, guest house is cozy and well appointed, and the homemade fudge was awesome ;-) I've stayed at a lot of rentals over the years and have to say that Judith's communication was over the top. Every question I had received an immediate response. She even booked us dinner reservations at the Switzerland Inn (great food BTW). Thank you again for making our weekend so relaxing!!

I travel frequently for work and have pretty much lived through VRBO . Out of all the places I’ve stayed, it’s this particular property I’ll always remember and come back to. The drive to the cottage is nothing less than stunning.. I’ve always loved the mountains. The restaurant’s are in walking distance and the cottage is a historic stone house. Almost as though you’re stepping back in time. Judith made sure before we got there that our rooms were warm which was very kind- it was freezing. The views from this place are breath taking. Everything was very clean and put together - you will not be disappointed with your stay at this Little Switzerland retreat, thanks so much Judith!
