Not Your Granny's Cottage - Black Mountain, NC
AI-generated from guest reviews for this property
Updated Mountain Home with Fast WiFi, Electric Fireplace, Fire Pit & Central AC
Combine the character of a cottage built in 1907 with a thoroughly modern update that only enhances the home's charms and character, rather than detracting from them, and you've got the perfect mountain getaway. But first: coffee. Step outside to your front porch and have a seat on that pretty blue porch swing. Grab a book from inside and relax for a while – why not? You’re on vacation.
When you start getting hungry, head inside to make breakfast. The modern, well-equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances and all the counter space you need. Distinctive features, such as the butcher-block breakfast bar, exposed brick, and a repurposed fan as a ceiling light give the space plenty of unique charm. When it’s time to eat, grab one of the bright orange chairs at the bar, or head over to the dining room, which features chair rail and the same deep blue walls as the living room and kitchen. After breakfast, it’s time to explore. Hiking, mountain biking, rafting, and scenic drives are all just outside your doorstep, and the charms of Asheville await around 17 miles to the west.
After a day of relaxing fun, it's time to head home for...more relaxation. Fancy a soak? That beautifully restored, celadon-painted clawfoot tub in the bathroom awaits. If you'd rather relax as a group, turn on the electric fireplace and grab a spot on the sofa for some TV, courtesy of the flatscreen. If the weather's nice, get the fire pit in the back yard going and gather in one of the Adirondack chairs to chat about your day and all the fun that awaits tomorrow.
