About this property

Custom-built, romantic mountain cottage w/ hot tub

Whether you want to sample the 30+ local breweries, explore the Blue Ridge Parkway, or enjoy amazing restaurants and shopping in downtown Asheville, this studio cottage will be a quiet retreat for when you return.

We designed and built this cottage as a passion project. Quiet, simplistic, and elegant, we hope you will enjoy the special touches we built into the property: wall-to-wall radiant flooring, skylights, various lighting options, and a private hot tub with a mountain view.

The sleeping area is set up with a new Nectar Sleep queen bed. Spacious closet with built-in shelving is waiting when you are ready to get settled. Attached to the sleeping area is a sun-filled, full bath with a step-in shower, featuring both rainfall and standard shower heads.

There is a full laundry room with a stacked washer and dryer, laundry detergent is provided. Also available is an iron and ironing board.

Because the cottage is a studio, the living area and kitchen area lead into one another making the floor plan open and intimate. There is cable and high speed wi-fi internet.

The kitchen is spacious and contains an electric stove/oven, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, and fridge. There are an assortment of utensils and cooking equipment at your disposal. Plates, bowls, and utensils are also supplied, along with a coffee maker.

There is a small outdoor sitting area overlooking the property, accessible by the front door. A privacy fence provides some added space and seclusion, but won't keep you from seeing the wild turkeys, hawks, and deer. There is also a Solo Stove Bonfire for your use upon request. Walking around the side of the house, you will find the hot tub, which is thoroughly cleaned after every guest.

Please note:
The cottage property is semi-private, you will pass another home when you head up the private drive.

Beautiful and private
The cabin was clean, organized, and exactly as pictured. We really enjoyed our stay here. It’s also in a nice location about 20 minutes from downtown Asheville.

Weeklong stay
The place is really nice, clean, and relaxing. Check in was easy, there were laminated guides for the relevant house info. Lianne left a white noise machine in the closet which was great to use while sleeping. Hot tub is awesome, saw a shooting star. Would stay there again/ recommend to a friend. The ride into asheville was easy, theres a back way I took during the day and a main road to take back at night since I’m not used to the windy roads in the dark.

Absolutely perfect
This stay was so perfect that it had my husband and I brainstorming how to have a similar place when we retire. They’ve thought of every detail from robes for the hot tub to coffee in the kitchen. We saw deer and wild turkeys outside. It was secluded but still 15 min to Asheville. Best VRBO experience to date.

About the host

Hosted by Lianne Price & Nicholas Hunter

Host profile image
We're Nicholas & Lianne! Nicholas has lived in Asheville for 21 years, and Lianne for 8. When we're not working, we enjoy western North Carolina's incredible hiking, camping, beers and food, and visiting family in the midwest and the northeast.

We both enjoyed living downtown for several years, but having this 3-acre property has given us peace and quiet, while being within close proximity to everything Asheville has to offer.

Why they chose this property

Nicholas designed the cottage in 2020, and brought his designs to life in 2021 (with help from Lianne and talented local friends). This house was a true labor of love, and we hope the creativity, thoughtfulness, and quality craftsmanship shows. The cottage will surely enhance your visit to this breathtaking part of the country.

What makes this property unique

Asheville provides a variety of activities from hiking, mountain climbing, shopping, river floats, brewery tours, and amazing restaurants. The cottage is also situated close to historic Marshall and quaint Weaverville, both offering their own unique mountain charm and variety of activities.
