Built in 1926, the Paulownia Cottage is the perfect place to call home when you explore the North Carolina mountains. It is the closest cottage to our inn and guestrooms. This beautiful cottage has an open deck with sweeping views of the vineyard, garden, and Warrior Mountains. It was completely rebuilt in 2025. Inside the cottage, the main room features a large sitting area with gas fireplace and ultra comfortable king bed, sleeper sofa and 55′ smart tv. The private newly renovated custom Kohler bathroom with a luxurious Air Jet Therapeutic Tub for two and walk-in shower is spacious and ultra comfortable. Get ready to be cozy and relaxed in this top-rated couple’s getaway cottage!

In addition, the Paulownia Cottage has a second bedroom with a trundle bed with 2 twin beds, making it the perfect choice for a family of up to five. The Paulownia Cottage at our Saluda, NC Hotel is one of the four cottages that accommodate children of all ages.
