About this property

Artist Sky Loft in Downtown Black Mountain, Western North Carolina

Looking for the perfect mountain rental, located right in the center of Black Mountain? Look no further than the Artist Sky Loft. Located on the second floor of a mbuilding constructed in 1918, this two-bedroom, two-bath rental home integrates the old with a meticulous upgrade, making it a perfect location for exploring Black Mountain and the surrounding areas.

After climbing the 18 stairs from the street level, guests are greeted by a charming blend of old and new. While the whole home has been brought up to date, it maintains its charm with certain elements, like the old brick wall that is incorporated into the upgraded kitchen. Each of the bedrooms has a king-sized bed, and the whole rental contains paintings and artwork including hand-crafted vases. Best suited for adults who do not mind the nightlife. Coffee shop and bar below has local music on weekends and some Thursdays that can draw big crowds (for a small town) and be noisy above.

Weekend Stay

Exceptionally clean and comfortable. The location was perfect for us. We were able to walk to anywhere we wanted and be there in minutes … or less. Communication with the owner was easy. I would choose to stay here again.

Location, location location

This loft is better than advertised. So comfy and decorated to the nines! The Artist Loft is centrally located in downtown Black Mountain. You walk right out of the front door and you are in middle of coffee/martini bars, restaurants and eclectic shops. The beds are super cozy and the little coffee table by the window is a great spot to watch sunrises and people watch.

Apartment in Black Mountain, NC

We spent a week right downtown Black Mountain, NC. The apartment was in a great spot right in the middle of all of the shops and restaurants. Entry and exit was easy. The apartment is quaint and comfortable, all we needed and more. The apartment is above a coffee shop/ Bar that has live music on the weekends. They didn’t play past 10, however it was very loud on Friday and Saturday. Something to consider based on what you are looking for.

Great Space and Location

You could not ask for a better location. We parked our truck and didn’t have to get back in it til we were ready to come home. The space is perfect for a small family or even two couples. I would definitely book this place time and time again.

GREAT Location in the Heart of Downtown Black Mountain

Ashley and Sal were great hosts who were very easy to communicate with. Their home is in a fantastic location in downtown Black Mountain with plenty of bars, restaurants, shops, and things to do for kids right around the corner. The place was well kept and would recommend as a place to stay at while visiting Black Mountain!

Mountain Getaway!

We absolutely loved this apartment! It was just beautiful & exactly as described. It was so clean & had everything we could possibly need. The location is right in the middle of town, so walking distance to all shops & restaurants. Ashley was a wonderful host & very easy to communicate with. I would definitely recommend & hope to stay there again!

Great place

We had a wonderful time. The place is clean and the master bed is comfortable. It’s in a happening area so if you’re looking for peace and quiet it’s not really that type of place. It’s conveniently located to shops and restaurants… everything is walking distance.

Great Getaway

The property is so centrally located. We parked and walked around Black Mountain for four days. We ended each evening in the coffee shop / bar below. So many shops and restaurants just outside your door and a short walk away. Bring an umbrella for short, pop-up storms. Want a night in? There is a comfortable common room and kitchen. We will be back!

Great downtown loft

This is a stunning downtown loft. From the moment I stepped inside, I was blown away by how impeccably clean and well-maintained everything was. The space was not only spotless but also beautifully designed—an artistic blend of local modern elements and unique touches that made it feel like a true work of art. The layout allowed for plenty of natural light, enhancing the beauty of the design and offering views of the mountains. One of the best features of this loft is its unbeatable location. Shopping and dining were within easy walking distance. It was the perfect balance of a peaceful retreat and vibrant city living. If you're looking for a stylish, clean, and conveniently located place to stay, this downtown loft is an absolute gem.

About the host

Hosted by Ashley

Host profile image
We left the North over 20 years ago for Western North Carolina and take advantage of all it has to offer. Weekly, we hit the amazing local trails to hike and mountain bike. We frequent the Blue Ridge Parkway for Sunday drives, stargazing and road biking. We visit the nearby lakes and rivers for fly fish, boating, tubing and paddleboarding.

Why they chose this property

Black Mountain is our escape from our home in nearby Asheville! We love to eat and drink at the many locally-owned restaurants. There are new ones popping up seemingly every week! We find the people of Black Mountain to be so friendly and inviting. We hope you will too.
