What a beautiful and well appointed cottage. Thoroughly enjoyed watching happenings across the street (especially soccer and football matches) at the high school. Surprisingly quiet at night despite being near to hospital and high school. Fantastic location to walk downtown and enjoy shops and restaurants. Great front porch to dine or visit. Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Emily Cosgrove

Host profile image
Hello All! My name is Emily and my partner Joe and I want to welcome you to our special home. Joe is originally from Syracuse, NY and I am happy to say that I grew up about 15 minutes down the road from the bungalow. Our full time home is in Charlotte, NC with our three Shelties; Jack, Kali and Mocha as well as our 29 year old turtle Mr. Mike. I am an avid equestrian and Joe enjoys mountain biking. We love to hike with our dogs and enjoy trying new restaurants. We have traveled extensively and Hendersonville is still one of our favorite towns.

Coffee is a must for us in any home! We have included a selection of 3 different blends from our favorite local shop, Sharewell Coffee. We made sure to include the tools to prepare your coffee any way you'd like!

Why they chose this property

This house has felt like home since the moment we stepped foot in the door in December 2020. It is a unique space with a lot of charm and sometimes quirkiness. We have thoroughly enjoyed curating this space for you and would love any and all feedback.

What makes this property unique

We love this home's proximity to everything the mountains have to offer. You can either park and the house and never have to use your vehicle for your entire stay. Or you can explore the surrounding areas with just a short drive. There are endless possibilities for hiking, biking, snow tubing, river tubing and really any outdoor activity you could think of. Even if you just wanted to stay in, the home is peaceful and inviting.

We are also offering add ons by request. We can curate a beautiful charcuterie board, cakes, snacks, or decorate for your special celebrations. Just message us at least 3 days before your trip to coordinate and discuss pricing!

We hope you enjoy Hendersonville and stay with us again! -Emily and Joe
