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.

The cottage was on a beautiful property with widows to watch the sunrise from a comfortable sofa or chairs with our coffee . The views are relaxing and worthy of your expenses. River in back had ducks waddling from your windows, or a bench but it was chilly. So cozy and the pictures are true but the experience is much more. Jillian the host is responsive to anything that makes your stay better. Will stay again.
Sunrise , lovely mountain view
Views from windows
Serene and relaxing
Lake , all of it makes you slow down and give thanks.

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!

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.

Adorable Little Cottage

The Cottage at Laurel Park was a picture off of a post card. It was such a neat experience in a beautiful town. Although feeling like you were a part of nature by its surrounding beauty, it was just a short drive to all of the places we wanted to visit. This property made our winter vacation that much more special. Thank you for having us!
