About this property

Welcome to the Collins Mountain Cottage, your idyllic retreat nestled among the beautiful woodlands of Asheville, NC! Our 1-king bed, 1.5-bath all-wood cottage offers the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience, located just 15 minutes from the vibrant heart of downtown Asheville. Curl up with a good book or explore the beautiful outdoors of Western NC. Designed with the perfect couples getaway in mind, our inviting and cozy space promises an intimate and unforgettable escape.

The fireplace is inoperable! There are two oscillating heaters in the cottage if the guest needs them.

The cottage is just a 15 minute drive along Riverside Drive to Downtown Asheville. The Biltmore Estate is ~25 minutes from the cottage. You will also be ~10 minutes from the coffee shops & restaurants of Downtown Woodfin.
There are a number of neighboring houses near the cottage. One of the houses to the right of the cottage is occupied by full time tenants. The area is very quiet and peaceful, it is likely that you may not see anyone while you are there.

THE DRIVEWAY IS STEEP
The driveway is relatively steep with a sharp left turn on the way up and right turn on the way down. It should not be an issue for any vehicle during the majority of the year. If you are planning to visit in months where snow/ice may occur (December-early March), a vehicle with 4WD may be necessary.
PARKING
The property will allow for a maximum of (2) vehicles. Both vehicles can be parked to the left side of the house, please make an effort to ensure your vehicle is out of the shared driveway.

Anniversary Getaway

The property was perfect for our 1st Anniversary trip. We were a short drive to the Biltmore estate and there were so many hiking options under an hour away. Highly recommend driving on the Blue Ridge Parkway, which is close to the cabin! The property manager also had some amazing recommendations for local hikes and local restaurants.

About the host

Hosted by Madelyn Bourland

I live in Charleston, SC with my husband Alex and two pups (Flossie & Hamlin). We love living on the coast, but have a competing love for the Blue Ridge Mountains. We love hosting dinners & events, so hosting you in our cottage is another chance to scratch this itch. We hope you can feel the love and attention we put into the space. We hope that our cottage is a place where wonderful memories are made, we are so excited to have you stay!

Why they chose this property

We love that the cottage provides the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience. It is so quiet and peaceful, especially enjoying coffee or wine on the balcony off of the bedroom. This combined with the fact that the cottage is only 15 minutes from Downtown Asheville and within an hour of some of the best hiking in Western NC makes it the perfect place to us.

What makes this property unique

The Collins Mountain Cottage is a true example of a rustic wooden cabin. Properties like these are typically found off the beaten path, but in this case it is located so close to all that Asheville has to offer.
