Stone Cottage is located in a beautiful mountain gorge

Stone Cottage is a peaceful retreat with mountains and woods just out the front door. Wildlife abounds. Deer and turkey frequently venture into the yard. Yes, a black bear can occasionally be spotted ambling along the property boundaries. No Gerton residents have ever been eaten. Family friendly. Smoke free. Sorry, no pets. Free Internet/Wi-Fi.

Stone Cottage has 1400 square feet of living space. The master bedroom features a queen-size bed. Other bedroom features twin beds. Cottage has two full baths. Master bath has shower and additional bath has tub with shower. Kitchen has washer and dryer, dishwasher, gas range/oven, with dining for four. Living room has a large-screen TV, Direct TV provided, and fireplace with gas logs. Sunroom has additional dining table that seats six. New central heat and air. Perfect for family of four, or two couples. I know, twin beds in one room, but a twin bed is very cozy with two.

Three vehicle parking space at cottage. Additional parking available, very short walk, in lot below cottage. Outdoor seating available to sit and enjoy the mountain views. Kitchen equipped to meet your dining and cooking needs. Carport available for one vehicle.

What s near? Eighteen miles from Asheville, North Carolina. Eight miles from Chimney Rock State Park and Lake Lure. Twelve miles from the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway. Minutes away from the Florence Preserve. 600 acres of hiking trails, waterfalls, and beautiful views ( Minutes away from Hickory Nut Gap Farm. Source for organic fruits, vegetables, and pasture raised beef, pork and chicken( These are just to name a few of the local attractions and activities available in the local area.

Owner/operator lives nearby - other side of the horse pasture. Available to address concerns on short notice that could arise to ensure that your time in Stone Cottage is enjoyable. I want guests that appreciate the geographical beauty and seek to explore the scenic byways and enjoy the outdoor activities that abound in the area. Stone Cottage is not a frat house. Free Internet/WIFI. MINIMUM STAY 2 NIGHTS. MAXIMUM STAY 7 NIGHTS.

Terrific stay in Gerton

Not only was the hiking terrific, the accommodations were the best I have stayed in: a charming, comfortable and well stocked cottage that had everything we needed for a fun and comfortable weekend in the mountains. In addition, the property owners provided some very useful information to help us navigate the area. If you are in this area, I strongly recommend this property.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

4 lifelong friends rented this cottage for a relaxed weekend. We were all comfortable in this very well equipped, user friendly cottage. Plenty of personal touches and all the kitchen conveniences of home. Games, videos, and child friendly books would make this great for families, also.

We stayed at Stone Cottage for our daughters wedding and it proved beyond our expectations. We did not expect to have access to so many amenities and greatly appreciated the thorough notes/explanations on how to operate the appliances etc. The cottage was so warm and comfortable, we would definitely recommend a stay there!

Mom's Birthday

We loved staying in this little cottage. We had the fireplace on each evening, and snuggled in the warm, cozy living room reading, and spending time talking. We went down into town to see the Biltmore, and have dinner at an Italian restaurant, but really just enjoyed being together in the cottage. It's quirky, and sweet.

Great Spot

My wife and I are happy to recommend Jame's place to anyone. Clean, organized, quiet, landscaped beautifully on a long and winding road which is but a hope skip and a jump to Asheville. There's an Ingles for groceries nearby, if you need one, restaurants, gas, there's even a quiet little tavern up the road a bit if that's your thing. Friendly people there. Lastly, we had the place all to ourselves, felt like we owned the place. For me personally, that's a nice bit of freedom. Trust is well-placed here. Best, John.

Great mountain getaway

We stayed at the old Stone Cottage for 4 nights to spend time together as a family. 2 adults and 2 college-age children. The house had everything you could need to get some down time in the mountains. Warm fireplace. Coffee and tea ready to be made. One trailhead is less than a mile away. 30 minutes into Asheville. Great communication.
