Located 100 yards from the 1st green at renowned Sweetens Cove Golf Club, No Laying Up has created the perfect getaway for avid golfers on more of a "Strapped" budget. The basement unit of the Birdhouse is a  two bedroom unit and is perfect for smaller groups looking to stay and play golf at one of America's most unique golf desitnations. The unit can be rented together with, or separately from, the upstairs unit. 

Within The Birdhouse, patrons will find plenty of space to rest, relax, and enjoy time with friends and family after a great day of golf. The house places an emphasis on comfort and function but was also designed as a real world extension of No Laying Up's community of avid golfers. 

Outside the house, architect Rob Collins, the co-designer of Sweetens Cove, has created the "10th hole" a teebox measuring 110 yards to the center of no. 1 green to give visitors a chance to play a little bit of "bonus golf" while hanging out on the laid back front deck overlooking the course. Both basement and upstairs guests enjoy access to the "10th hole."

The downstairs features two bedrooms that sleep three guests each (a set of bunk beds and a double bed in each room). The unit comfortably sleeps six. There are two newly renovated full bathrooms, a kitchen and a porch leading to the east side of the house.  The garage putting green and warm up area is shared with the upstairs unit and is the perfect place to safely store clubs and get ready for a big day of golf. 

Note: This unit is more basic than the upstairs unit (read: "Strapped" vibes), but we are making continual improvements as we go along (new refrigerator, dryer, garage putting green/warm-up area, and microwave were recently installed, as well as a large bar in the main room).  If plan to be on the course all day and looking for a place to hang a night and lay your head, this unit is perfect. If you're in the market for more C-suite accommodations, then book the upstairs unit. 


Important Information Regarding Courses Passes and Booking Policies:

If you would like to book both units concurrently please submit a booking request for each one individually (unfortunately there's no way to book both with one click). Please reach out to birdhouse@nolayingup.com and we're happy to answer any questions or assist with any issues. Thanks!
