The cottage was very nice and well equipped. Close to downtown dining and golf and hiking but completely quiet and private when you arrived home
We’ve stayed in the cardinal cottage twice and have had a wonderful visit both times. Looking forward to the next visit!
This is our 2nd time staying at Cardinal Cottage and it was just what we needed!
The leaves on the trees were spectacular
This was our third time staying at this lovely, cozy cottage. We enjoyed it immensely once again. The hosts are so very kind and always quick to answer any questions. The cottage is clean and location is great - tucked away just a few miles from downtown Hendersonville. We’ll be back!
Our stay at the Cardinal Cottage was very enjoyable and relaxing; just what we were looking for when we decided to visit from Florida for a short week. Lonnie was very responsive before and during our stay. She provided a detailed introduction to the house and property and offered us recommendations to local attractions. We are already talking about returning next year to the Hendersonville area and if we do, we will stay at the Cardinal Cottage.
This is our cozy slice of heaven. Always love sitting on this porch & enjoying the birds & wildlife
Great stay, watching birds were great for there were so many that was not in out part of the world. Saw Pilates Woodpecker. Best part of stay was enjoying the screened in porch. Great location for traveling part of the Blue Ridge Parkway.
Everything was perfect
After many trips to the mountains, we've come to love the Hendersonville/Mills River area. We chose this property because of its proximity to both. Lonnie greeted us when we arrived and gave us a thorough tour. She may be the kindest person you'll ever meet. The kitchen is fully stocked, the beds are very comfortable, and that porch...oh my! We watched birds at breakfast and lunch on the porch and finished our nights there relaxing in the cool mountain air. We visit the mountains regularly and I would absolutely rent this property again. It's secluded and cozy...a perfect little cottage.
We had a lovely, peaceful stay at Cardinal Cottage. Lonnie met us when we arrived and gave us a thorough intro to the house and advice for the area. The cottage is charming, clean, and super comfortable. We felt at home instantly. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. I learned some new birds - watching them at the feeders and in the trees.
Cottage was perfect in every way! The screened in porch was so nice even with rain. Loved watching the birds fly in to eat. Lonnie and Dave were absolutely perfect host.
The cottage is well located to visit the area attractions and only about 5 miles from downtown Hendersonville. The cottage is clean , private and very well equipped . The owners are available and helpful in answering all your questions. So many birds came to the feeders. We saw at least 3 white squirrels and 3 deer grazing in an open area. We were happy we booked the cottage. Will definitely return.
One of the best ever. This was our second trip and we’ll be back.
Great job, Lonnie. Thanks for everything.
Beautiful little cottage that is warm and comfortable.
This is a charming cottage in a great location, easy access to Hendersonville and Asheville and surrounding areas. The cottage is private and in a beautiful setting, with everything you need for a few days, a week or even longer. The beds are extremely comfortable and all the linens and towels are luxurious. The owners are wonderful, quick to answer any questions and to offer great suggestions on places to go or eat in the area.
Very seamless process. Lonnie was great once reservation was made. Gave great information about the area. We came in late at night in heavy rain and she was great helping us get situated.
This is our third stay at Cardinal Cottage. We love the area and the cottage is perfect for our small family. As always, the hosts are top notch and make our stays the best.
Great location. Very convenient location in quiet neighborhood. Lovely hosts. I'll look for this property again when we visit the area.
Cardinal Cottage is a quaint cozy cottage well equipped and nestled in wooded surroundings. It is truly a peaceful place to rest and relax. The owner was very friendly and it was a pleasure to meet her. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it.
This is our chill out place. We have stayed multiple times to recharge our spirits. This time, we really didn't do anything special-- just enjoyed the quiet & all the birds, deer & white squirrels,
Excellent home with a screen porch to enjoy the night. We saw hummingbirds and other birds around the property at the bird feeders. Secluded but close to everything. Definitely stay again and recommend others to use this property. Loved it.
We were welcomed and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The Walters could not have been nicer. The cottage suited our needs perfectly and was in a shaded and quiet location. Very private.
We enjoyed our stay, at Cardinal Cottage! It was much too short of a stay. The location was perfect for our needs..couldn’t have asked for more!
I can't say enough about Cardinal Cottage. Lonnie - awesome. Met us with flowers. Easy to read instructions for everything and the location - awesome - quiet! Birds and a screened in porch. Say no more.
We had a wonderful long weekend at the Cardinal Cottage. So comfortable and charming!! The screened in porch was such a plus - how relaxing to just be able to sit back and listen to nature. Lonnie was amazing - always available to us. I would enthusiastically recommend the CC to anyone visiting the Hendersonville area!! Best, Gregg Levin
