Creek-side cottage in secluded mountain setting, centrally located, easy access.

Cozy creek-side cottage is tucked away in an easily accessible, yet secluded, mountain setting surrounded by hemlock and rhododendron. It's very centrally situated, only 10-30 minutes away from the areas you're most likely to visit -- Chimney Rock, Lake Lure, Black Mountain, Hendersonville and Asheville.

Just like the guests that keep coming back for over a decade, you'll find the cottage is the perfect place to unwind creek-side after enjoying everything the surrounding areas have to offer. Far away from the crowds yet close enough to everything, this IS your home away from home.

The cottage features a comfortable open floor plan interior. You'll find a fully equipped kitchen, comfy king size bed in spacious bedroom, washer/dryer, and double sinks in the bathroom. Crack the bedroom windows and listen to the soothing sounds of the babbling brook as you fall asleep.

Outside, you'll find lots of options to relax. Guests love to swing in the screened-in porch while listening to the tiny cascading waterfall, bask on the sun deck, enjoy a beverage while rocking on the private front porch, lounge on the hammock in the garden, or warm up by the fire pit while taking in the cool evening air.

GOOD NEWS: We now have high-speed Internet!! We were among the first customers to get online via a new fiber optic backbone installed in 2023, delivering plenty of bandwidth for all you Internet needs.

Guests are welcome to use the Amazon Echo device on the kitchen counter to access music, news, weather, etc. through Alexa voice commands or are free to turn it off during their stay. Be advised there are outdoor surveillance cameras monitoring the entrances for security purposes only.

Easily accessed off scenic Hwy 9, the property is located just 10-15 minutes from boating and hiking at Lake Lure and Chimney Rock, and only 20-30 minutes from downtown Black Mountain, Asheville, Hendersonville, Biltmore estate, and the Blue Ridge Parkway.

In case you're wondering how far shops, gas stations, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. are from the cottage, here's is a bit more info of what you'll find nearby along the routes to the nearby towns of Black Mountain, Hendersonville, and Lake Lure. All three towns are special in their own way and are roughly equidistant from the cottage but in different directions. Each area has its own personality with unique restaurants, eclectic shops, and breweries/wineries. You should be able to use your GPS to map any of the places I've named below, but there's so much more to see than I can possibly name here.

BLACK MOUNTAIN (NORTH): The exquisitely quaint,
casual, and pet-friendly town of Black Mountain (https://exploreblackmountain.com) has a really neat and walkable downtown with its inviting Town Square, unique shops - including an authentic old-fashioned general store, art galleries, and repurposed train depot - museums, coffee shops, breweries, and dozens of restaurants, all just 25 minutes from the cottage. A short drive from downtown is the picturesque Lake Tomahawk Park and the hiking trails of Montreat. About a mile or so before you reach the downtown area, you find Artisan Gourmet Market and an Ingles gas and grocery store, which are about 13 miles (23 minutes) from the cottage. The town of Black Mountain is a must see, but it's just a bit tedious to drive to because of the twists and turns you'll find heading northbound on beautiful Hwy 9. The road is fully paved, impeccably maintained, and fun to drive, but less convenient to navigate. Roughly mid-way along the route to downtown, about 12 minutes from the cottage, you'll find the welcoming Straightaway Cafe & Pub, a local favorite worth checking out.

CHIMNEY ROCK / LAKE LURE (SOUTH, THEN EAST): Just 10 minutes from the cottage you'll find the charming Chimney Rock Village (https://www.chimneyrock.org), which boasts a nice variety of shops and restaurants, as well as a brewery, a winery, and the scenic Rocky Broad riverwalk, all surrounding the spectacular hiking of Chimney Rock State Park. If you continue through Chimney Rock Village eastbound on hwy 64 for another five minutes or so, you'll see Lake Lure's scenic Flowering Bridge, Washburn Marina and Morse park, all of which are a must see. Continuing past the marina, the drive will become a bit more windy and scenic as you circle the lake on route to an Ingles gas and grocery store on the far southeast end of Lake Lure, roughly 11 miles (23 minutes) from the cottage. If you're into horses, driving another 22 minutes south on hwy 9 and then east on hwy 74 will bring you to the amazing Tryon International Equestrian Center, with all sorts of family-friendly events going on year round.

HENDERSONVILLE (SOUTH, THEN WEST): The closest and most conveniently accessed gas station is 10 miles away from the cottage heading west (southwest) on hwy 64, where you'll find an Exxon right beside Griffin's Grocery & Cafe. Continuing westbound along hwy 64 another 20-25 minutes will bring you to Downtown Hendersonville (https://www.romanticasheville.com/hendersonville.htm), a chic and casual-upscale area that we just love. As the second largest downtown in Western North Carolina (second only to Asheville), downtown Hendersonville has all sorts of shops, restaurants, galleries and even a pinball museum along the pedestrian-friendly half-mile Main Steet, as well as lots of other eats and breweries less than a mile away. It's well worth the trip if you've got the time. Three miles shy of the downtown Hendersonville area on hwy 64, you'll find the largest concentration and assortment of recognizable franchise shopping center stores and chain restaurants, as well as numerous fast food options. You'll also find in that area multiple groceries and gas stations, all about 15 miles (25 minutes) from the cottage, including (you guessed it) another Ingles grocery store.

NOTE: It's worth mentioning that, in terms of ease of driving, I prefer going to Hendersonville to run errands because there are fewer twists and turns compared to the drives into Black Mountain and Lake Lure. Honestly, though, I look forward to visiting each of these areas every time I'm at the cottage and I know you will, too.

“Away from it all” with all the amenities!
Not enough space here to describe how wonderful this cabin was! Felt very rustic as far as location, but the cabin contained updated amenities, and felt like a home away from home. The photos truly do not do this place the justice it deserves - it’s beautiful. We look forward to staying here again in the future.

We had a wonderful stay at Creekside cabin! We were able to enjoy the peacefulness of the creek flowing beside the cabin. Close to everything but far enough away from the hustle and bustle of town. The cabin was perfectly described and accommodating. Very easy road to the cabin and easy check in process.

Weekend getaway
Property was perfect. Secluded on a beautiful wooded property with stream running next to it. Lots of outdoor places to enjoy the view of the woods. Open front porch across the length of the house. On the back of the house is a large well furnished screen-in porch. Great for morning coffee or in the evening. Cabin cutely decoraated and well stocked. Lots of hiking/fishing areas close. Also, close to Asheville and the Biltmore Estates for shopping, drinking and dining. The perfect spot to enjoy both worlds. Located closed to theBiltmore estates
