Magical secluded hideaway on a French Country Estate with tranquil creek & ponds

Step into your very own storybook escape at the Fairytale Cottage—an enchanting private guesthouse tucked beside a sparkling creek on the sprawling grounds of Woodcreek Estate. This lovingly restored luxury cottage offers peace, privacy, and charm, all within minutes of Cleveland’s downtown district, Lee University, and the natural wonder of the Cherokee National Forest.

Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway, a creative retreat, or a serene stop on your Southern road trip, this hidden gem is sure to steal your heart.


A Storybook Setting

Set beside a gently winding creek and under a canopy of hardwood trees, the cottage is surrounded by fragrant gardens, mossy stone pathways, and the soothing sounds of nature. A TREX deck overlooks the water, offering the perfect place for morning coffee or stargazing at night. The chimney, limewashed to a soft grey, rises above the cedar shake roof, creating a fairytale profile straight out of a European countryside inn.

Inside, you’ll find an interior that blends French provincial elegance with cozy Southern hospitality:

Louis XIV–style sofa and seating nook
French inlaid wood and copper coffee table
Designer lighting and hardwood floors
Custom finishes and artistic touches throughout

Everything has been thoughtfully designed to inspire comfort and creativity.

this cottage is out of a fairy tale. However it is really a beautifully crafted building. All Oak paneling and trim throughout and done by craftsmen. Complete privacy. Easy access to town and surrounding areas. Plenty of opportunities to commune with nature both around the cottage and the beautiful Tennessee mtns. Only bummer was I discovered the swans were not real.

Beautiful, relaxing setting and tastefully decorated interior

We had problem checking in and out apparently due to a Vrbo technical problem. The host immediately left a message with Vrbo to report the issue. We had texted them about the inability to checkin and it took a little while to hear back. I realize now that we probably should have contacted them via Vrbo app, but we weren't familiar with Vrbo..We had an opportunity to meet the hosts who were kind and friendly. The venue was a beautiful, relaxing place facing a large pond with geese and an adjacent creek. It had an outside patio with loungers where we enjoyed some late sun. And it was near a large city park where we enjoyed a walk. The interior was tastefully decorated. The only issue was that the tv was at a high level so we couldn't connect our hdmi cable, but we enjoyed great music via wifi. It was rather expensive with the tacked on service and cleaning charges, but it was a magical experi nce as promoted.

Secluded Haven

From communication with the host to check in and all the amenities that were provided, it was truly a delightful experience! If we could have extended our business in the area, we would’ve definitely stayed on this property.From the moment you drive up, it’s a WOW factor! Although it was on somebody’s property, you felt secluded in your own little haven with the river running alongside it a big pond in the front of it that you could walk around and enjoy. The bed was so comfortable that we almost didn’t make our checkout time Because we overslept! ! Lol. Truly a delight to experience! Thanks Jillian.

Happily Ever After

We stayed here the night after our wedding and couldn’t have asked for a more fairy tale beginning. The ambience and personal touch the hosts prepared for us was magical! From the personalized welcome sign to the music in the air, this is a place we will never forget and will return again and again!

Very cute cottage. The glass door on the bathroom could use a curtain. The path to the cottage is really not handicapped accessible making it difficult for older people to walk and carry luggage.

Exceeded Expectations!!

We had an absolutely wonderful time at the cottage. The owners were extremely responsive and helpful. The cottage was very clean and felt so cozy and inviting. The location is phenomenal as the property abuts to a huge park that includes a frisbee golf course and paved walking paths. It is also within 5-10 minutes of everything you could need in the Cleveland area. Our dog joined us and it was one of his best vacations as well. We will be coming back to the property in the future!

Wedding night.

My new wife and I stayed here on our wedding night and it was perfect. They had a complimentary bottle of sparkling grape juice and rose pedals on the bed. The bed was amazing and the perfect ending to the day. We both slept amazing. We to an Uber to the airport the next day and Jillian was very accommodating, allowing us to have late check out. The location to the nature park was awesome also, we woke up the next morning and took a 2 mile walk. This place was absolutely amazing and I could not have asked for a better place to stay. Thank you Jillian for everything.
