Beautiful and cozy! The cottage was very clean and inviting. The price for my 3 day stay was not bad for what was there to utilize. Everything was as it should be, and I am already planning a second trip in the fall to Swannanoa and will reserve this same place, if available!

It's as good in person as online!!

My wife and I stayed here with a couple of friends for my birthday weekend, and it was idyllic. The views are incredible and the cabin is nicely appointed with everything you might need. The road to the cabin is a bit steep and narrow, but we made it in a 2wd minivan. :)

It was clean and had a beautiful view! The road up was a little tricky but if you want to be in the mountains then that's what it takes! I would recommend it!

Beautiful secluded cabin a short drive from Asheville and Black Mountain. It was exactly what we hoped for from our weekend away from the city.

Loved our stay

We loved our stay. The only drawback is the drive to the house. Lots of lower income properties affected by hurricane, so a lot of dirt and not so great views. Once at the house, the story is different, beautiful views. The house was clean. Beds were hard but okay to sleep on. Good appliances. Overall great stay

Fantastic!

Felt cozy as soon as we arrived and walked in the door. Everything was clean and welcoming. No fuss entry. We had everything we needed and a few extras...like a tea box! Can't beat the view. It's quiet and private but not all alone on the mountain. We'd go again in a minute!

Lovely little Cabin

Lovely little cabin up on a holler in NC. Was exactly what our family needed after the recent loss of loved ones. Nearby Black Mountain is a great little town.

Home base for hurricane relief

My mom and I traveled to WNC to bring supplies and volunteer with Samaritan's purse. The location of this cabin was perfect - very close to Asheville, Black Mountain, and Old Fort.

Perfect spot for our family

This was such a nice escape up the mountain—the views, the peace and quiet—all while still being close enough to explore the surrounding sites. It was the perfect size for our family of four (two young children). We loved this well appointed space—a lovely cabin tucked into a beautiful setting.

Peaceful Anniversary Getaway

This is such a lovely space, perfect for a short anniversary getaway for me and my husband. Well appointed and comfortable, with amazing views. Secluded but close enough to great shopping, dining, and hiking for short excursions or a nice dinner. Would 100% stay again.

Winter Getaway

Property was exactly as described! Perfect weekend getaway. The road up to the cabin was still well intact after the storm. The surrounding devastation was very apparent but every business we stopped by was so thankful to have customers(tourists) coming back. The cabin itself has a great deck for long range views and the indoor fireplace was perfect for the cold winter nights! Would stay again 10/10
