About this property

Tranquil Mountain Cottage (Wheelchair Accessible)

Surrounded by beautiful farmland, plan your vacation at this cottage fifteen minutes from downtown Asheville. This two bedroom/two bathroom house was built to accommodate people with disabilities. Even if you don't need the additional support, this home is a lovely place to rest, relax and rejuvenate. Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, this cottage lies in a family estate that spans 17 acres. You will be amazed by the sounds of a small family farm (cows, chickens, goats, and a nearby pet turkey) and astonished by the nightly firefly/star-filled sky. Meanwhile, there are many attractions, like hiking and waterfalls, kayaking or tubing, skiing or snowboarding, or the Biltmore estate, or city life in Asheville, all so close by. Guests will have space and privacy, but the host is nearby should a need arise.
A special bonus is a nursery with full-sized crib in one of the huge walk-in closets. The kitchen is fully equipped, as well as having a washer/dryer room. WiFi is provided with a smart TV and DVD player. For added pleasure, there is a large selection of books, puzzles, movies, and games. Enjoy walks in the quiet neighborhood when not exploring the many, many attractions in nearby Asheville, Maggie's Valley, Blue Ridge Parkway, Pisgah National Forest, and more. In the cooler months, curl up next to the fireplace and relax. In the warmer months, enjoy both a covered front and a back porch with seating.
Accommodations include two queen beds plus a queen futon for extra sleeping. Linens and towels are included for convenience.
This Tranquil Mountain Cottage is truly a neat, comfortable and relaxing home close to so many other adventures.

Loved this VRBO, when you first walk in there’s a little sign saying Nana’s House, and it feels just like you are staying with family. Everything we needed was right there. It is such a quiet area, in the country. Felt safe and like home. Will definitely stay again if we do the dog show here next year.

It was a property that was excellent for handicapped accessible people. When the electricity went out due to a storm, Elaine came over and brought lights that were battery powered.

Asheville weekend

Great price and location for a short weekend trip. Older house but it provided all of our needs and worked for our family. Not too far from grocery or other needs and a short drive to Asheville.

beautiful setting

The house was nice and as expected. Clean for the most part but blinds in the bathroom were dirty and under the stove hood was dirty but the rest was clean . The stove should be replaced, it doesn't function totally . The setting was very nice and the host seemed very friendly .

We had friends in from out of town, and had one night stay at Elaine’s immaculately clean home. It has everything we needed, plus it was only 20 min away from most things we wanted to do in Asheville. We will stay here again.

Overnight mountain getaway

Truly wish we had the opportunity to spend more days in and around Asheville this weekend. This home was perfect for what we wanted—a quiet getaway within a short distance of downtown Asheville and lots of things to do nearby. Comfortable and welcoming home. Would definitely stay again if we get the chance!

Perfect Valley Cottage

We had a wonderful experience staying in this little cottage. It was just as the vrbo described and nestled in a beautiful valley. It was extremely clean and i felt comfortable there with my two middle school aged boys and elderly mother. Located only 15 minutes from Biltmore this was a quiet place to rest but bot far from restaurants and shopping. And there were goats!

Very clean and cozy property. Had every amenity you could need including a fireplace that we enjoyed. Location was off the beaten path enough to be peaceful but close to everything in the area. Hosts were very responsive and helpful.

A wonderul family time

From the start of booking, until i left the property I have had nothing but a wonderful experience with Elaine. I was also able to meet one of her children as well and she was also super nice.The home is old fashioned and truly being on the farm was a nice step away from the hectic lifestyle I left in the city. From walking in peace and quiet to rocking on the front porch watching it storm and hearing the rain, the sun come up and go down, waving and chatting with the occasional neighbor etc, it was truly a step into the old southern way and my family and I enjoyed it immensely. We will 100 percent book again here. To Elaine and her family, thanks again for opening your home to me, Cow and my parents! T. Star Eades
