Cozy stone Cottage on Rushing creek porch, soaking tub, & fire-pit pet friendly

Rock face mountains with green quilt like surroundings, blue skies with white pillow clouds, boulders that sit at the mountain base and guide the rushing creek, winding roads that reveal lush surprises at every turn, waterfalls that pop out in unsuspecting crevices.
Welcome to Bat Cave!
As you turn onto Middle Fork Road more beauty awaits. A rushing creek flowing down the mountain, secret waterfalls that lead to the historic homestead as you cross the bridge to Sweet Water Cottage. A cottage hand-built from stone over 80 years ago. This newly restored home has an exterior of old Stone craftsmanship blended with an interior of modern amenities.
Sweet Water Cottage is a beautiful newly renovated home that has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. All new modern appliances, fully stocked coffee station, washer/dryer, double oven, dishwasher, icemaker/ filtered water fridge. Each bathroom has its own unique luxury. Relax in the beautiful 70" soaking tub after a long hike or unwind in the Jack and Jill bath that displays the beauty of the exposed natural stone, complete with a walk-in tile shower. Bedrooms include the master which has a king adjustable bed with a remote wall fan, the classic twin bedroom, and a kids room that has a bunk with a twin over full. The kid's room is stocked with books, games, and its own TV/DVD. The front porch is the place to be for morning coffee, reading, or soaking in the sounds of Middle Fork Creek. Take a nap in the creekside hammock or just relax watching the water in the hammock chairs. The fire pit is a wonderful end of the day hang out, grilling steaks, roasting hotdogs or marshmallows. Be mesmerized by the fire while you allow the water sound to wash away any anxious thoughts. Be still and know that you are surrounded by so many fun activities that all you need to do is decide which one to do first.
Bat Cave is centrally located to so many interesting areas. You can easily explore Chimney Rock/ Chimney Rock State Park, Lake Lure, Hendersonville, Asheville, Black Mountain, Blue Ridge Parkway, Pisque National Forest. There is something for everyone from Hiking, Mtn biking, canoe or kayaking, sightseeing (Biltmore, Carl Sandburg home), shopping, gem mining, boat tours, water park/ beach(Lake Lure) fly fishing, creek play, Zip-Lining, horseback riding, snow tubing (Moonshine Mountain), Winery tours, Local Brewery, Distillery's, Massage and Spa's.
Adventure awaits! We have suggestions and a wealth of things to do here at the Sweet Water Cottage. I am here to help you make your mountain experience as enjoyable as possible! Thank you for considering our Mountain retreat.
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to send and inquiry before making any bookings! Thank you

Best Airbnb experience we've had (maybe ever?)
My only complaint is that the original listing has 'hot tub' as an amenity, and a large soaking bathtub is NOT a hot tub. This part of the listing should be changed. However, we spent a long weekend and the place was immaculate and we would absolutely love to visit again. The kitchen was very well stocked, the property is beautiful, and while I was disappointed there was not an actual hot tub, we did not miss it. The house is very close to downtown Chimney Rock, where we were able to find more than enough to do when the weather was nice. It was very easy for us to unwind for a few days for my wife's birthday and the host was so easy to work with. 10/10 would recommend this place!

Our family stayed here while our daughter rode at Tryon. This is such a charming and unique house full of character. It's convenient to many main attractions, and we had a great time and a wonderful stay. The owner was very communicative and helpful throughout our trip.

Family vacation
We had a lovely time at this property. It was very well stocked and was just an amazing setting. My kids loved the creek and the property was close to many of the activities we wanted to do (30 min or less by car) but was also very private and secluded. So many great memories were made!

We were going to go to old Edwards inn but they only allowed one dog there so we had to change plans. Couldn’t have been more happy with this place

Cozy cottage next to beautiful stream
We loved our stay at the beautiful little cottage. It’s tucked away on a quiet country road. The cottage was clean, stocked, and very well cared for. We enjoyed the fire pit and the rushing stream next to the cottage as well. Definitely worth the trip!

Great Getaway!
This was the best long weekend trip! A great place to get away and unwind after a crazy start to the year. There are several places shop, eat and get coffee. Chimney Rock, Black Mountain & Hendersonville are some of the places we visited and enjoyed! This cabin was quiet, cozy and very clean! We enjoyed every minute of our trip!
