About this property

Chickadees Cottage and Pottery - centrally located, private comfortable cottage.

Adorable cottage with all your travel needs accounted for.

We strive to create a dog and child friendly space that is also a romantic and chic setup for couples or business travelers alike.
Visit the small creek that runs through the back of the property and watch for wildlife. Enjoy evenings around the large fire ring. Relax and visit on the rocking chair front porch or enjoy a meal on the back deck.

The cottage is situated in the middle of all there is to do. 20 minutes to downtown Asheville and Hendersonville, and Brevard. Within 10-15 minutes to the airport, Sierra Nevada, the arboretum, French broad River, the Biltmore estate and access to the blue ridge parkway.
Throughout the cottage you will find pottery and art made by local artists.

Next door to the cottage is a working pottery and art studio. Guests are invited to watch demonstrations from professional potters and see the finished art in our display area.

You can also contact me to set up pottery lessons and group clay dates!

Come home to Chickadees!

Wonderful experience

Charming cottage

This cottage is in a great location as it is close to Asheville and many sights. It is comfortable, and fully stocked. There are 3 TV's so great for a family. We really enjoyed our stay. The host, Becky was readily available for questions and comments. We would stay again if we are in the area.

Darling little cottage filled with beautiful handmade pottery

The best way we could find to describe our stay was that it felt like going to your grandparents' home. It was so cozy and comfortable, and all of the little details were thought through. We loved the coloring materials provided, the essential oils, and the beautiful pottery throughout the house. Would definitely recommend this home!

Ideal Retreat

The home is welcoming and relaxing. Perfect distance for day tripping to Asheville, but cozy and comfortable for staying out and chatting or playing board games. Our group of three loved it - would definitely go again, either for another girls’ trip or with our families. Bex was fantastic to communicate with and made us feel welcomed while giving us privacy. Do yourself a favor and book this place! Highly recommend the pottery class!

Weekend Getaway

I took my family to Chickadees Cottage over the weekend. The property was quant, quite, and comfortable. It’s definitely a great place if you’re looking for a getaway from the city. Also, if your into a looking to go explore Asheville, or the Biltmore estate, it’s just a short 15-20 minute drive away. The owner is very accommodating and very responsive to any questions that we had. I would definitely recommend!

Perfect cottage in the Perfect Location

This lovely cottage in the country was just perfect in every way! Quiet, pastoral setting just minutes away from Asheville and the Biltmore. Owner was readily available. Cottage had every amenity we could have wanted or needed, and was decorated and furnished with care and great taste. Our dog loved walking the grounds. We'd return in a flash and have already recommended this property to friends who have family living in Asheville.

Asheville Trip

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful stay at Chickadees cottage! The cottage was so peaceful and decorated very cute with touches of beautiful homemade pottery everywhere! We brought our dog and she loved running around and exploring the grassy property. The host was very responsive and organized. We took a pottery class on our last day in town. It was the perfect end to our trip and made our experience so special!

Best VRBO I’ve ever stayed in!!

Terrific neighborhood and parking right in front of the house. Very convenient to downtown Asheville, without being too close to huddle and bustle. 20 minute easy drive. The host was attentive and friendly. The house is absolutely adorable. Comfortable beds and plenty of towels and places to put things. Kitchen had everything you could need Living room is so comfortable and the pottery is beautiful. Porch front and back furnished and nicely decorated. We hope to stay there every time we come back.

Perfect spot for family with dogs

Our family of 4 (with kids aged 3 and 7) with 2 small dogs had the best stay at this cottage nestled south of Asheville. Our kids loved exploring the property including the nature path, creek, hammock swings, and fire pit. Every detail from the lush bedding to the adjustable shower head to the dog toys to the toys/games/books for the kids to the shampoo/conditioner/body wash including in the shower made for a stay that was comfortable and easy. We visited Mills River Dog Park and Playground daily which was just a 10 minute drive away for the pups and kids and had the best time as a family at Highland Brewing and Asheville Brewing a quick drive away. Hoping to stay again.

Perfect home for a spontaneous weekend!

I can’t say enough about how wonderful the home was. It’s 20 minutes to Asheville 20 minutes to moonshine mountain just around the corner from the Pisgah National Forest in Looking Glass Falls. Our family enjoyed the cabin very much there’s horses in the backyard and it is just a magical property. The homeowner has thought about everything from coffee in the kitchen, hot chocolate, and teabags so that if you forgot them if they’re even coffee filters. The home was very clean and very comfortable. This will be our go to home of choice in Arden North Carolina.

A lovely ‘home away from home’

My friend and I were biking in DuPont and Pisgah Forest. Chickadees provided us with all the home like amenities with an air of relaxation. Perfect after a day on the trails. Nestled next to a horse paddock and surrounded by blooming trees and bushes it invites calm and a restful vibe. It was a short drive to anything we wanted and needed. Becky was a lovely host and taking a pottery class with her was the ‘cherry on top’ of it all! We would go back for sure!

Why they chose this property

When visitors aren't in the cottage my own family loves to spend the day there.

The song of the birds and beauty of nature make me feel at peace.

What makes this property unique

Easy access to all there is to do within the area.
Next door to a master Potter’s Studio. The pottery and artist studio is host to friendly craftspeople that love sharing their craft with visitors.
