Spectacular stay in Black Mtn

What a wonderful trip, with fantastic accommodations in the lovely little cottage out back. Shirley is a gracious host, along with little Sugar, who is such a sweet pup. The garden is unmatched for its peace, beauty, and quiet serenity. If you’re looking for a place to relax, easily walk to downtown, and just soak up the beauty of the mountains, look no further.

Delightful cozy cottage!

We were able to hike within 10 minute drive, walk into town for meals, coffee, etc. We had a cozy cottage with plenty of room for the two of us. Everything worked well, and Shirley greeted us when we arrived. We loved it!

Lovely Cottage!

We enjoyed our stay. The cottage was a great home base to visit The Biltmore, The Grove Park Inn, and we also did a downtown Asheville food tour. Downtown Black Mountain is quaint with places to shop and delicious places to eat which are within walking distance from the cottage!

Anniversary Trip

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Even though the cottage was small, it was perfect and had everything we needed. And the porch was so great to sit and enjoy the beautiful gardens and listen to the birds. We enjoyed talking with the owner and meeting her little dog Sugar.

We loved the cottage and the lovely garden in front of our private abode. We ate on the porch every day with a sweet rose tablecloth and a handcut real rose in a vase. It was just a sweet stay and will definitely go back!

Perfect for a brief getaway!

This cottage was just right for a mother daughter weekend. It was very clean, had comfortable beds, and every detail was considered! It was also a very convenient location. We would absolutely stay there again next time we visit Black Mountain.

A great quaint cottage

This cottage made for an excellent place to live and relax in while we spent the week on vacation. The owner, Shirley, was super nice and accommodating. If you're new or old to the area of Black Mountain or Asheville, this is definitely the cottage to enjoy your surroundings in.
