About this property

Mountain Shadows - Cottage on Stream - Hot Tub - Grill - Gas Fireplace - Pets OK

Mountain Shadows is a comfortable cottage built next to a babbling brook. Imagine driving down a country lane to a cottage nestled in the woodland. The cottage is on a quiet, peaceful street conveniently located between Brevard and Hendersonville, NC. There is a large porch where you can eat meals outside, have your morning coffee, or just enjoy relaxing in the mountain air. The Hot Tub is on the covered porch also; overlooking the babbling brook. There is a nice view of the woods and longer range views during winter time.

Inside the living room you'll find a custom fireplace to keep you warm and toasty in cold weather, a vaulted ceiling, and a flat screen TV with cable. The modern bathroom includes a new extra large shower. The kitchen features new cabinets with custom granite counter tops. In spring millions of wildflowers bloom in the area and in the summer the rhododendron and mountain laurel bloom. Fall has cool nights and wonderful fall color that has been enjoyed for generations.

The master bedroom has a queen bed and 2nd bedroom has 2 twins.

Wonderful Rental

This rental cabin was very clean and well stocked. We loved staying here. The setting in the woods was ideal; very quiet and private. We loved the hot tub, and fenced area was ideal for our dog. It is close to Brevard, Pisgah National Forest, and Hendersonville. We will definitely stay here again.

New Year Getaway

We enjoyed our weekend getaway to start the new year. I do feel that the cottage could use a deep clean. There was build up on fan blades, light switches, and baseboards. This did not affect our stay just an observation. Thank you for providing a great space for small families to enjoy and connect.

The cabin is in a beautiful area and is the perfect location to visit Pisgah National Forest and DuPont Forest. It is cozy, spotless, and has all the comforts of home. Nothing is overlooked!

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location. The cottage is right next to a stream. During the summer you can sleep with the windows open hearing the sound of the falling water and have breakfast on the large porch. During the winter curl up in the living room with the gas fireplace.

What makes this property unique

Vaulted ceiling in the living room and kitchen. Newly remodeled with new appliances, cabinets, and fixtures throughout. Beautiful custom granite countertops in the kitchen.
