Downtown Brevard Cottage - Hot Tub / Echo / Pets

Come and stay in our Downtown Brevard Cottage. Walk to great local restaurants such as Wild Morel ( 5 minutes ) and Square Root ( 9 minutes ) and many others. We are close enough to the 185 King Street music venue that you might hear their music if you relax on our deck! Our cottage is a three bedroom, two bath home nicely located a block away from Main Street down a quiet side street in Brevard, NC, a college town nestled on the edge of Pisgah National Forest in the Blue Ridge Mountains!

Stroll the numerous antique and specialty stores along Main Street ( 1 block away ). Have breakfast at Rocky's Grill and Soda Shop ( 10 minute walk ), and afterwards, take the kids to OP Taylors on Main Street, a two story old fashioned toy shop packed to the rafters with fascinating things for children and adults alike.

After a day of strolling, soak up some warmth in the four person hot tub. Watch movies on our netflix enabled smart TV, or cast your favorite youtube videos to the TV with your laptop when hanging around at the cottage. To see the latest movies, mozy on over to the 'Co-ed Cinema' on Main street by foot, just a 7 minute walk.

If it's time for a drink, Dugan's pub is a 13 minute walk (Square Root has a bar too!), and if you want to keep going in that direction, Brevard College is just across the street from the pub.

You will love our brevard cottage, not just for it's convenient location in quaint downtown Brevard, but for it's comfort and amenities too.

If you are bored, just ask Alexa to read you the latest news! Alexa, do I look good today? If you must talk to the NSA through Alexa, do it while you are there, don't let the black helicopters arrive right after you leave.....

The cottage sleeps six with our king, queen and two single beds. On winter evenings, relax by the gas log fire, and when not walking the neighborhood, the cottage is close to the natural scenic wonders of the Blue Ridge Mountains and is located in Transylvania County, known as the land of the waterfalls.

Asheville's Airport is only 19 miles away, not bad when you need to get rid of a relative fast!

You can be driving on scenic HWY 276 through Pisgah National Forest in just nine minutes, following the Davidson river (great for tubing) on the way to the Blue Ridge Parkway......Stop at Sliding Rock as you pass by for some fun in the water on a warm summer day. Visit the Pisgah Inn for lunch and marvel at the views from the restaurant.

Later, drive along the Blue Ridge Parkway towards Asheville and stop at the Biltmore House to see how we should be living....you know, some design ideas for your own place....perhaps add a new wing to the abode? Gothic anyone?

The cottage has a king size bed and an ensuite master bathroom, one queen and two single beds. For longer stays, the washer and dryer will come in handy. If you are the out-doorsy type, sip a glass of wine and have a cookout on the gas grill on the private back deck while enjoying the cool summers and mild winters this part of the North Carolina mountains offer.

If you need a break from cooking up a storm in the well equipped, gourmet cottage kitchen, and just want to order a hand made pizza from a wood burning oven, Marco Trattoria an Italian restaurant is only a five minute walk, ( 1 min by car ) one block away on Main street, next to Hobnob. If you or the kids have a sweet tooth, there are at least two iced-cream shops nearby, one 'Downtown Chocolates' is next to the Square Root.

You can walk to several grocery stores that are close by, but four minutes in the car to Ingles, and you can avoid lugging that delicious sliced ham home.

The weekly farmers market every Saturday in summer is a must do destination for the serious cultural browser, located just off East Main Street, near Quotations Coffee Cafe, a 12 minute walk ...... past the court house. Bring your dog so he or she can meet all the other dogs who brought their owners to be market! If you are not there on a Saturday, the region boasts a huge farmers market where every chef worth their salt will be found. This is Asheville's WNC Farmers Market, and is detailed in our cottage handbook for visitors which you receive with your access instructions when you have booked.

If horse riding and waterfalls is your thing, visit Shoal Creek Horse Farm for a guided ride through the Dupont State Forest (23 minutes away) on a friendly horse...I rode Joker, my nine year old daughter rode Duke (say hi for us) winter or summer.....check the handbook for contact details. You can visit some of the spectacular waterfalls such as Bridal Veil Falls, High Falls, Hooker Falls and Triple Falls to name a few while in Dupont State Forest.....a truly spectacular natural resource.

Speaking of quaint little towns, downtown Asheville is only 46 minutes away, and is a wonderful place to visit. There is a phenomenal Antique Tobacco Barn there too that is worth exploring. As you look around our brevard cottage, you will see a few items from the Antique Tobacco barn.

With five national and state parks nearby, there is an endless potential for sightseeing, hiking, day tripping, biking and watersports such as tubing, white water rafting and fishing in the surrounding area.

The area also boasts a vibrant music scene, and know that the cottage is located near the road to the Brevard Music Center.

Every surface in our Brevard Cottage is new and state of the art from the seamless shower enclosures to the gourmet kitchen and natural gas fireplace.

There is truly something for everyone in Brevard, and we hope you come and stay in our downtown cottage!

Review of stay
The proximity to Brevard College was great the actual neighborhood was very disappointing. The adjacent run down homes were horrible yo look at and the new construction at end of street was loud at times. We understand how the area is renovating but need to let people know it is a less than desirable neighborhood but the house inside was great and Ashley is wonderful. Might be time for new furniture while it looks great the couch and chairs are hard to get out of as you si k down on them.

Short Family Reunion
This property was laid out exactly as advertised and worked for our group of 5 adults for a long weekend visit in Brevard. We have stayed in several rentals in Brevard the last several years. This one needs some love and attention! The outside deck was totally unusable. We had seen several comments on previous reviews about how old/dirty the outside deck furniture was, but once there, we realized how true those reviews were. It is well past time for that dining table and chairs to be replaced - it has been ignored so long that there was mold and lichen completely covering everything. The hot tub did not seem terribly clean when we contemplated using it either. The same could be said for the leather sofa and chairs in the living room (so well used that they are difficult to get out of and not comfortable to sit in). All the towels for the bathrooms were discolored and frayed. Plastic mattress coverings may help protect the matresses, but make for warm, sticky sleeping at night. The ceiling fans in the bedrooms are off balance and make loud noise no matter what setting they're on. The fan light in the twin bedroom was missing 2 of 3 light bulbs. In the kitchen, many of the pots, pans and dishes were not completely clean and there is no exhaust fan over the stove. Two small plastic ice cube trays in the freezer are not enough for 5 adults. The batteries in the main smoke detector died on our 2nd day and we couldn't find replacements. Definitely needs updating.

Clean and comfortable!
The home was clean, beds were comfy. We made good use of the living room space. The check-in system was odd but it worked. The walk to downtown was a bit farther than we anticipated. As mentioned in reviews, the deck furniture is covered in lichen or something and needs to be cleaned or replaced. The hottub was oddly foamy which our host said was probably a soap issue? An annoying issue that didnt seem a priority for our host was the dining room smoke/carbon dioxide detector started chirping our second night. We removed the batteries and notified the host but no one came to fix it. The next night (4am?) the device began beeping with an added spoken warning. There were no batteries to be found so we disconnected the electrical wires. I notified the host again. He responded but didn't come by to fix the device during our stay. Brevard is lovely and the options for exploring the beautiful forest are endless!!

A stellar house in the perfect location
Stayed here for a second time this week. John and Ashley are fabulous hosts. They offer theur fantastic property with great communication easy check-in and check out procedures. Stay here as a central location for all the best mountain biking...DuPont, Pisgah, Bent Creek. Come home from a hard day on yhe trails and soak in the hot tub. Then walk into town to any one of the many outstanding restaurants, breweries and shops. The neighborhood is so serene, you'll never know you're a half mile from downtown Brevard. This place has it all. I highly recommend it.

Walk to Town!
This is a great, well designed, and furnished house. This was our third stay in it. I love being able to walk just a few blocks to the Main St. and several restaurants. They only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is the appearance of the neighborhood. But it has been fine and really convenient. The back yard is fenced with a nice deck, perfect for enjoying the cool evenings - if the owner would replace the deck furniture which is covered with lichen. That is my only complaint. We will return in spite of the deck furniture.

The house is just what we needed. Great location to town which was diatance walking to town. The kitchen and bathrooms were very nice and well decorated. The couches were low and a little difficult to get out of. Could us a new table and chairs on patio, not something I wanted to sit on. Worn out and need cleaning or replacing. Hot tub was awesome. Bushes are very high in front could be trimmed to have better site when exiting driveway. Would stay here again.

I really loved the house overall, but was a bit surprised by how small it looked from the outside. Inside, it really was spacious. Everything was perfectly maintained including the fenced backyard. I wish the property owners had updated the TV instructions because the equipment had changed and didn’t look like the pictures they provided. It took a while but we figured out how to use their streaming services. Wi-Fi worked great.
