Luxe Cozy Cabin, Creekside, Hot Tub, Views!

ShelleyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This was a wonderful stay in Asheville. Just out of the way to get some much needed rest and relaxation but close enough to all the fun things in Asheville that we had no problem getting out and doing a lot. There were so many nice touches and it was very comfortable and clean. Our host was very responsive and even allowed us extra time to check out when a local power outage stopped us from getting showers and clean up done the night before. I would absolutely stay here again and have recommended to my friend as well.

Dog Friendly - Stargazer Cabin at Farmside Village

KristiRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
My stay was lovely. It’s very peaceful up at the cabins. For the first portion of my stay I was the only one up there. Later, the other cabins were filled. However, I hardly noticed anybody else, the cabin is very well insulated from sound. All the basic amenities are provided. And it’s a very comfortable set up they have created. The space was kept very tidy and clean and anything I needed was provided. I would definitely rent again from these folks. It’s a very easy drive into Asheville for events, food and shopping. Thanks so much for making you space available to others.

Modern Cabin with Hot Tub | Views | Creek

BillRating, 5 stars2 months ago
"Modern cabin" is a modest description ... I would call this a mountain retreat! There were four of us (two couples), but the home would have easily accommodated eight. The design of the house was well thought out and roomy, and the decor was stylish and tasteful. It did not seem like a rental. The kitchen was fully equipped. Thick towels and a bubbly hot tub awaited our arrival, and the Saturday morning scones & hot chocolate were a delightful treat! Perfect spot for a remote get-away, but still just 20 minutes from downtown Ashville and many other attractions. We could not have been happier with this "cabin"!

Stone Cottage

ErinRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
This place is very special. I’m local and will take weekends to disconnect and recharge. I’m always looking for unique spots—I love charm, and history over bright shiny new and basic. When I got out of the car, the smell of honeysuckle hit me and I smiled. There are dates and years commemorated throughout, which brought up many positive memories for me. The outdoor space is not accurately captured in the photos, and it was a joy to have a fire in the stone chimney while it rained all weekend. The owner’s home is very close, but they gave us plenty of space for privacy. Excellent hosts and amazing place. I’ve already inquired about future visits.

Your guide to Black Mountain

Welcome to Black Mountain

An artsy little mountain town just 15 miles east of Asheville, Black Mountain’s original claim to fame was its experimental arts school that opened in 1933. Although Black Mountain College has since closed, the town remains alluring to art lovers and crafts enthusiasts, with plenty of galleries, shops, and annual events displaying Southern Appalachian works.

The historic downtown is quaint, walkable, and studded with rocking chairs, which has resulted in Black Mountain being nicknamed Western North Carolina’s “front porch.” Tasty restaurants, independent bookstores, breweries, and music venues abound, as do nearby hiking and biking trails that are accessible and appealing to outdoorsy folks throughout the year. At an elevation of 2,405 feet, Black Mountain also offers fresh mountain air and a scenic, rugged backdrop, and this combined with the thriving arts community has regularly placed the town atop lists of America’s best small mountain towns.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Black Mountain

There is no bad time to visit Black Mountain, as the mountain air is always crisp and there’s generally something of interest going on. From late spring to early fall, rocking chairs decorated by local artists pop up all over town, and they’re usually sold off by October. In July and October, there’s the biannual Craft Fair of the Southern Highlands, while August sees the long-standing Mountain Dance and Folk Festival. September and October are lovely for fall foliage, which is best viewed out on the Blue Ridge Parkway, and February is famous for the Black Mountain Marathon, which brings runners up to the peak of Mountain Mitchell. Summertime concerts take place at White Horse Black Mountain, including bluegrass, jazz, classical, and Celtic music.

Those who enjoy wandering in nature will adore this area replete with mountain pathways. Favorite outdoor jaunts include the 86 miles of trails at DuPont State Forest Waterfalls, the scenic Catawba Falls in Pisgah National Forest, Mount Mitchell State Park (which contains the highest point east of the Mississippi), and both hiking and climbing at Chimney Rock State Park.

Blue Ridge Parkway
