Stayed Oct 9, 2025Fabulous cabin. We’ve never seen such a well-stocked kitchen. Everything was set up in a way that made us feel welcome and comfortable. Among other things, we enjoyed the fire pit near the stream and found a wonderful hike nearby. Thank you Ellen for being such a thoughtful host!

Stayed Aug 30, 2024This is such a great place to stay when visiting the area. We spent allot of time in Black Mountain and Montreat because my husband went to college there, but might just come back and stay in or around the cabin. Our kids loved the creek and hot tub. We also enjoyed a hike and had friends over to grill. Everything is just right to have a great family weekend.

Stayed Jul 3, 2024The pictures of the cottage does noy do it justice. It is absolutely beautiful! My family enjoyed playing in the creek, lounging in the hot tub, and just sitting on the deck with a cup of coffee listening to the creek. The beds were also comfortable. All the little extras were just amazing. Highly recommend!

Stayed Nov 22, 20235-star stay from top to bottom. Great location, perfect host, awesome house - old farmhouse feel, cozy, but nicely updated and laid out well. Great room and hot tub overlook babbling creek, bank of rhododendron and patio with grill and fire pit. There are lots of nearby hiking/biking trails, shops in Black Mountain and local grocery and taverns. We loved it!

Stayed Oct 20, 2023This home is nothing less than perfection. It was cozy, clean, comfortable and just a dream. We are already planning our next trip. We even left 3 jackets in the closet and the owner shipped them to us. So responsive and kind.

Stayed Oct 24, 2023If you're thinking of staying somewhere else in this area don't. This place is absolutely amazing, and so peaceful. Ellen (the host) is the best host I've ever had. She was so helpful and accommodating. I stayed here with my girlfriend and sister and they both absolutely loved it. It borders a bunch of trails and some small towns that are great to visit. Both Hillmans brewery and Whaleys are great. Definitely visit Black Mountain, coolest little mountain town around. We will definitely be back.

Stayed Sep 21, 2023This cottage was perfect the gurgling creek was so peaceful. Perfectly located for a day trip to chimney rock and then a cruise on the blue ridge parkway the next day.
