Completely Remodeled and Central to the best trails in WNC!

The Cognative Ride House is perfectly located as a central home base for your adventures on the best trails WNC has to offer. While this house appeals to visitors of all types, we have especially curated it for our guests who thrive on the endless opportunities for adventure that the WNC mountains are famous for. The workshop offers everything you need to care for your bikes, and the home and game room offer the perfect atmosphere for relaxing before your next WNC experience.

The homehas just been completely remodeled with every single detail thoughtfully and intentionally designed with our guests in mind. The space is comfortable and relaxing with a bright interior full of natural light, soothing décor, comfortable furniture, and all of the amenities you need for a cozy stay. The house flows well with bedrooms to one side and living space, office, kitchen and dining on the other side of the house. The kitchen is spacious, very well stocked and ready for homemade meals or a cup of your favorite brew at the well-appointed coffee counter. The living area offers a comfortable place to gather and watch tv, play one of the games provided or read a local interest book from the thoughtfully selected collection. The large windows in the living room offer a beautiful view of the mountain range right across the street. The bedrooms each have high end mattresses and bedding, blackout curtains, ceiling fans and sound machines to provide a good night’s rest for your mountain adventures the next day. We provide two comfortable twin sized rollaway beds with cozy linens for extra sleeping. The office space offers a desk for four people to work remotely with the added convenience of charging stations, Bluetooth speaker and maps of DuPont and Pisgah Forests for planning your next adventure. The bathrooms are bright and clean and stocked with soft towels and wash cloths. The garage has been remodeled and outfitted as a game room for your enjoyment featuring air hockey, foosball, darts and hook and ring. The home has a fenced in backyard and multiple outdoor spaces give you the opportunity to continue to enjoy nature after your days exploring the mountains. There is outdoor dining for 6 on our covered porch; a sitting area, table and gas grill on the back patio with a beautiful fully fenced in backyard and a firepit with firewood provided for an outdoor bonfire in the evenings. Every detail of the house has been intentionally selected with you in mind, and we can’t wait to host you for your time in the WNC mountains.

The Cognative Ride House provides the perfect home base for exploring all the best trails Western NC has to offer. It is situated in a perfectly central location….only 12 miles from DuPont State Forest and Pisgah National Forest, 14 miles from Bent Creek Experimental Forest, 8 miles from Kanuga Bike Park and The Riveter. Downtown Hendersonville is only 5 miles away, Downtown Brevard 14 miles, Downtown Asheville 24 miles and The Biltmore Estate is 18 miles.

The Ride House offers the convenience of super easy access to the forests and downtown Hendersonville as it’s situated on Brevard Road on a hill set off of the road. You can walk to restaurants, spa services and a pastry shop across the street, and there is a hangout with taps, live music and food trucks a mere 0.3 miles away. While this isn’t a remote and secluded mountain getaway and you are located in the heart of Horse Shoe, the convenience of the location keeps our guests coming back again and again. The future Ecusta Trail (under construction) is within sight of the property and the Ride House will be the perfect home base for riding your bike to the trail once development is complete. *There is one outdoor security camera facing the driveway to ensure you feel safe and secure at all times during your stay.
