About this property
Family-Friendly Cottage with Blue Ridge Mountain Views!
All are Welcome Here.
All Sizes. All Ages. All Cultures. All Sexes. All Beliefs. All Religions. All Colors.
All People. All Are Safe Here
This house is 1.7 miles up a narrow GRAVEL ROAD. The road is accessible by all types of vehicles including 2WD sedans and minivans, but it’s often a bumpy ride. There are 100+ residents in our neighborhood that drive the road daily, so know that the road is regularly maintained, but if you have reservations about driving on a gravel road with no streetlights, you may be more comfortable staying in a place in town.
If you’re up for the adventure, read on! The view from the house is well worth the bumps!
The 1,900 sq ft, 3 bedroom, 3 bath house has beautiful long range views of the Black Mountains, including Craggy Pinnacle, Mt. Mitchell, and Grandfather Mountain. 5 miles from historic Black Mountain (including Ingles grocery store and interstate 40), and 15 miles from Asheville, this is the perfect getaway for those that love nature, but also want to be close to coffee shops, dining, shopping, and all the activities of town.
The cozy house is flooded with natural light, and features an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings, gas fireplace, hardwood floors, and custom woodwork throughout.
The fully equipped custom kitchen has everything needed for cooking and entertaining including an electric range & oven, microwave, coffee maker, french press, toaster, blender, crockpot and more. We've stocked the basics such as dish soap, dishwasher detergent, paper towels, common spices & condiments, sugar, coffee & tea - as well as basic toiletries, in case you forgot yours, like shampoo, soap, shaving cream and razors.
The house has two living rooms, one on the main floor and one on the garden level, allowing plenty of space for friends and family to spread out. Each living room is equipped with a large flatscreen TV, DirecTV, DVD player (downstairs).
The large deck off the main living area gives you a front row view of the awe inspiring mountain scenery. The deck is equipped with a gas grill, table and chairs for outdoor eating, comfy loungers and a gas table fireplace.
The three bathrooms (2 on the main floor, and 1 downstairs) are stocked with towels, toilet paper, hand soap, and basic toiletry items.
On the main level:
Powder room, kitchen, living room, french doors leading to the deck, Main bed & bath.
The Main bedroom, has a new Queen sized bed, custom built-ins, and a private bathroom with soaking tub, and a skylight.
Downstairs:
A spacious light-filled living room with walk-out door leading to the back yard, two bedrooms - one with a Queen bed & one with 2 Twin beds, full bathroom, and washer/dryer.
We offer a toddler floor bed, and a pack-n-play crib as well. If you'd like for these to be set up, just let us know, and we'll have them made and ready for you in the room of your choice.
Mitsubishi mini-splits for heating & cooling keep the house comfortable all year round. With the elevation of 3,400 ft we highly recommend sleeping with the windows open so you can hear the hum of the katydids and cicadas and feel the refreshing cool mountain breeze. The indoor gas fireplace is available from Labor Day to Memorial day.
We provide an ample selection of children's books, games, puzzles, novels, local guidebooks, hiking & biking trail information, and family friendly DVDs.
We live on the mountain and are available should guests need us.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Lisa
I'm an artist and homeschooling mother. My days are spent learning about the natural world with the kids, exploring trails, tending to our flock of chickens, ducks, honeybee hives, and growing and preserving as much of our own food as we can.
In 2012 my family and I relocated from the Rockies to these beautiful Blue Ridge mountains. We instantly fell in love with the charm of Black Mountain, and the people and landscape of this neighborhood.
My husband and I have long-admired this cottage, so when it went on the market in December 2016, we jumped at the opportunity to become a part of its story. We closed on the house in January 2017, and with the kids by our side, began a five week long renovation project. Our goal in furnishing the house was to make it comfortable and keep it simple, so as to not compete with the beauty of the custom woodwork, and of course, that View!
We have travelled extensively, within the U.S. and abroad, and have a good idea of what it takes to make a vacation home comfortable. We strive to provide you with a comfortable and peaceful setting, stocked with all the amenities you need to enjoy a relaxing vacation. We have grown to love the peacefulness of this sweet house, and are excited to share it with you!
