Black Mtn. Fun Art Trip

I was in Black Mtn. for my second time and enjoyed being in a home rather than a hotel. The weather wasn't the best so I wasn't able to enjoy the out of doors as much as I would have liked to. I enjoyed my stay very much.

Sweet Spot

This place is a gem! It is in a great location, quiet, peaceful and yet, close to town. The property is well appointed and very clean. The town of Black Mountain is a gem as well! Wonderful restaurants and lovely shops greet you and the Ingle’s market close by has every grocery food, wine and related item you could imagine. The surrounding area is breathtaking. The Biltmore Estate is minutes away in Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway is close by as are wonderful hiking trails, waterfalls and mountain vistas. During our two week stay we went somewhere new each day and there was something wonderful to see and experience at every turn! Having our lovely home to return to at days end was a welcome bonus! All in all it is hard to imagine a better place to be.

My college roommate and I (from many years past) had a wonderful stay in your charming, spotless, and oh-so-comfortable cottage. This is my second stay here and I’m already planning another visit for the fall. So close to so much…hiking, Black Mountain, great restaurants and shops and a fantastic yoga studio too! Thanks for another great stay!

Comfortable, clean, peaceful

We spent 8 nights at this cute little place in mid September, 2021. It was perfect for the two of us, but really is big enough for a larger group. We only used one of the two bedrooms, slept well, showered, cooked a few meals, did laundry, spent some time online and generally used it as our place to regroup after long days out and about, visiting Black Mountain and the greater Asheville area. The owners were responsive and very quick to take care of a couple of minor issues. We'd definitely rent this unit again.
