The Guest House at Elon Cottage

Elon Cottage is a historic house located in the heart of Gibsonville [~1895], about two miles from Elon University. Our wooded lot with grassy glades is approximately 1.5 acres, yet located within two blocks of downtown Gibsonville. If you like dining, walk merely a block to Saint Jacques French Restaurant at the Burke Manor [4.5 stars], or four blocks to Kimber’s Steak House [4 stars].

Our Guest house is located behind the main house, away from the road, and has views typical of the North Carolina Midlands. It was remodeled in 2023, and has everything new on the inside – granite countertops, SS kitchen appliances, new paint, new bath fixtures, and new flooring, tile inclusive.

Beyond our really choice location, amenities include a full kitchen with equipment and utensils, washer and dryer, internet. We have nine fine hens too, so open the egg box and help yourself!
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Conveniences include a desk and a microwave.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as bike parking.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.
