About this property

Your Carolina Cottage - Charming and close to everything

'Your Carolina Cottage' is a kid-friendly, pet-friendly 3 bedroom, 2 bath home, conveniently located to everything you want to see and do in the Asheville area:

• 2 minutes to Warren Wilson College
• 5 minutes to Billy Graham Training Center (The Cove)
• 7 minutes to the entrance of the Blue Ridge Parkway
• 11 minutes to Black Mountain
• 14 minutes to Ridgecrest Conference Center
• 15 minutes to downtown Asheville
• 16 minutes to the Biltmore House
• 18 minutes to Montreat Conference Center
• 45 minutes to Chimney Rock

Our cottage, which was completed renovated in 2013, has been lovingly preserved within the same family since its inception and is full of character and history. The beautiful wood floors were hand-crafted by the owner from recovered lumber from the old Moore General Hospital, a local WWII army hospital which was subsequently torn down. The beautiful wood trim is also hand-crafted and original to the home.

The home has luxurious appointments throughout, assuring your comfort, pleasure and good night's rest:

• Two bedrooms have new memory foam mattresses
• All beds have 600-thread-count 100% cotton Hotel Collection sheets and down-alternative comforters
• 100% Micro Cotton Hotel Collection bath towels
• Wireless internet access (Wi-Fi)
• Free long-distance (U.S.) phone calls
• Flat panel TV in Living Room
• All bedrooms have flat-panel TVs
• Fully stocked kitchen with stand mixer, food processor, crock pot and more
• Vermont Castings outdoor grill
• Full selection of DVDs, kid's DVDs, games and books
• Washer and Dryer

The setup of the home has unique features that make it ideal for families, two couples and/or family get-togethers. There is a total dining capacity of 8: four in the kitchen and four on the adjacent porch. Unlike many rentals which advertise that they 'sleep 6' - but the some only get a sleeper sofa or futon - all six will have an actual bed. Our back bedroom has its own entrance, making it perfect for two couples where each may want their own schedule or privacy.

• Master Bedroom - Queen bed with new memory foam mattress
• Second Bedroom - Full bed with new memory foam mattress
• Third Bedroom - (2) Twin beds with firm innerspring mattresses

We want all members of your family to be comfortable here, so we provide a strap-on highchair, baby bathtub and sleeping travel crib for your youngest member; and our cottage accepts well-trained dogs (limit two) with separate pet fee.

Beautiful and peaceful little cottage

This little cottage home had enough room for our family college tour trip to Western Carolina University. I have to admit that I was a little worried when they said they had several "house rules" BUT this is by far the cleanest VRBO we have ever stayed in! There werr plenty of comfortable beds to accommodate 4 adults and our 2 teenagers. The property has neighbors, but you would never know it with as quiet as it was. We felt like we were tucked away in a remote place all to ourselves. The house/property across the street had some livestock that made it feel even more like a country cottage. The mountain views out the living room window was a beautiful sight to wake up to in the morning too. We loved the peaceful little cottage, and how easy it was to get to a store for shopping and a chain coffee shop if you wanted a treat as well. We were instructed to call the property manager when we checked out and I was surprised they picked up the phone so quickly at 6am when we headed out. They were extremely friendly even though I woke them up so early on a Sunday. We really had a wonderful visit and look forward to staying again in the future.

Nice place

It had pretty much everything you could need. The only issue was the parking. That road was hard to back out on and there was no way to turn around in the driveway.

Small Gem

Cozy little house - reminded me of my grandmother’s house. Sweet location; we enjoyed the running trail nearby and being able to sit outside in the yard at the end of the day. It’s close to a grocery store, easy to get to hiking trails, and great for exploring Asheville. Had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
