Mystic beauty and a slow pace

Perfect for your next mountain getaway

The cottage is within easy walking distance of the pool, yet it is tucked back against the mountain to insure privacy. Even though it’s a charming early 20th century structure that was part of the original Hiwassee Dam village, it’s been completely modernized with all the 21st century conveniences.

Come and experience the mystic beauty of the southern Appalachian Mountains and enjoy the slower pace of our small towns. We want you to feel at home in our cottage and have tried to provide all the conveniences of your own home here in ours.

Thanks for considering Blue Shutter Cottage for your next getaway!

Sincerely,

Callie and Philip Moore

We really enjoyed staying in your cottage! It was the most enjoyable home we have rented in Bear Paw. Your cottage is very well-kept and is the perfect size!

I came here for an “unplugged” vacation and it was more than I could have hoped for – comfortable, clean, and quiet. Thank you for having and maintaining such a lovely place!

What a wonderful week this has been! I was able to feel some of the magic of those long ago summers I spent here as a child when Bear Paw was Lake Hiwassee Resort. Thank you for the use of this sweet cottage. It is precious and had everything we needed.

This is our third summer in a row renting Blue Shutter Cottage. We have never been disappointed and look forward to staying next summer as well. It’s always very clean, well stocked with the essentials, and has become our home away from home!
