Black Mountain cabin rentals

Luxe Cozy Cabin, Creekside, Hot Tub, Views!
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
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.

Quaint Mountain Cabin
I stayed here for five nights on a work trip. was really great. cozy, log cabin atmosphere. looks just like the photos. somewhat private. I heard roosters in the morning and a donkey in the evening. I'll stay here again if I return to the area.

Creekbend Cabin
Had a great weekend in a magical spot.

Cozy Creek Front Tiny Cabin
Second visit to this beautiful place. I'm sure it won't be our last. The creek is so peaceful. Great hosts!

Modern Cabin with Hot Tub | Views | Creek
"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"!

WagonTrail Cabin
Really great cabin that is well kept. The views are amazing. It’s unfortunate the town was so badly damaged but with continued support I hope to see the quaint restaurants and stores restored soon.

Log Cabin Motor Court - Cabin 5/Midnight Roost
Loved the little cabin. Would definitely stay again.

Haywood House Asheville (West Asheville)
Haywood House was great! We loved the location and enjoyed walking to the local restaurants. It was an ideal spot for the week and everything about the house was convenient and easy, including the check out with minimal requirements! We hope to come back!

Fire Pit | Fenced Yard | Safe | Modern | Inclusive
Great place. Enjoyed the peace and quiet. Good accessibility to everything I needed. Thanks.

Front Porch Charm
Such a great place to stay with kids, even has a small play structure in the private yard! Close to downtown Asheville and convenient to get everywhere!

New Belgium Lower Level Duplex, Heard of the RAD
I want to say that the host is a grade A person and lovely host. the place was perfect im kind of mad that it was booked out and I couldn't stay longer !!!

Tranquil country home NW of Asheville w/ Hot Tub
We stayed here to attend a wedding in the area. The host was very communicative, the house was very nice, clean and comfortable. Would stay here in the future if we are ever in the area again.

Hot Tub & Country Home in the Middle of the Trees
Julius’s home is the perfect mountain getaway. The property, inside and out, is full of lush plants. It is perfect for a relaxing weekend away spent with loved ones. The beds were so comfortable and the kitchen is perfect for preparing a meal. Julius was more than accommodating and very helpful during our stay. ✨

Country Setting. City Convenience. Hot Tub.
Great place to stay! Beautiful view across the street. Had everything we needed with coffee and stores 5 mins down the road!

Luxury 3Br 2Ba close to town w/ Steam Shower
Although this place was beautiful from each bedroom to the steamed shower and clawfoot tub, what I appreciate the most is that there are no check-out chores! We had a relaxing Sunday morning and didn’t feel stressed to make sure we had completed a checklist. Thanks for a wonderful stay!
Black Mountain cottage rentals

Red Bridge Cottage-downtown Hot Springs on creek
Michael was a great host and very responsive. The location was very walkable to everything that we needed in Hot Springs. Thank you for a great stay!

Creekside Fairytale Cottage-Hot Tub-Cozy Fireplace
Adorable house, fantastic location. So serine next to the creek. Easy walk to downtown Hot Springs. Will return in the future!

Experience 5 Star Stay, 24 acre Farm
We loved our stay at the cottage! The view from the bedroom loft is beautiful and the property- so peaceful and quiet. As a morning person, I found the sunrise spectacular. The place was cozy and a great home base for our exploration of the area. I loved the decor as well- a super Airbnb!

Cottage at Glen Galla
It was so relaxing and felt like a home away from home. Everything is just like it looks in the pictures. We enjoyed eating on the back porch and walks around the property which is gorgeous! Her two little dogs were friendly and we enjoyed their visits. We hope to come back next year!!

A beautiful Sunset Cottage
This is the perfect little place for a quick getaway. It's uber clean, private and quiet, comfortable, and with easy access to all the local places. Hosts are very responsive but they've anticipated all the things anyway. This is our 3rd or 4th stay here and no doubt we will be staying here again.

Stone Cottage
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.

Creekside Cottage - Little Switzerland
Karen's place is fabulous. Perfect, actually. Immaculate, peaceful, lovely. Perfect

The Cottage at Gilbert Landing
Carrie’s place was perfect for our family trip (2 adults, 2 college age kids). The house was clean and cozy inside. Outside there was a beautiful garden. It was an easy drive to the Tryon equestrian center as well as restaurants in Rutherfordton and surrounding towns. Highly recommend.

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.

Blue Ridge Parkway
