Hidden Gem
We stayed 4 fantastic nights in the Cozy Cottage. The place is adorable! Tucked away at the end of the road, it is quiet and welcoming. Patty and her family were so very helpful with ideas for us during our stay. Every evening after a day of fun, we came home to a happy Buddy doggie! Wagging his tail and waiting for a pat on the head! If you are not a dog person, it is ok. He is up on the porch. If you are a dog person, you can reach in and give him a belly rub! We loved our stay! Thank you so much Patty!

Cozy Cottage lives up to its name!
My husband and I had a delightful stay at Cozy Cottage. Patty is a lively host, and Buddy the dog offered us a friendly greeting every time we came home. The cottage itself is adjacent to Patty’s house but there is a privacy fence between the porches, and we absolutely felt like we had our own space. Everything was clean and tidy, and while the bed wasn’t perfect (as other reviews have noted) we still slept comfortably. The neighborhood is quiet and secluded, and a great location for exploring downtown Asheville or hiking in nearby Pisgah National Forest. We would absolutely stay here again.

Asheville Trip
We had a great visit to Asheville for a few days away. This VRBO is conveniently located to downtown. We hiked, ate, visited the breweries and had a great time. We enjoyed our stay very much. The only thing I would mention is you are very close the hosts private home. If you are looking for privacy this probably isn’t the place for you. Overall, it was a great stay.

Peaceful and private
Tucked away on a quiet hillside, this tiny cottage was so peaceful and had the best water straight from the tap, and we enjoyed a lot of it! It was very clean and we it had about everything we needed to stay a few days. Great Wi-Fi, nice tv, encouraged recycling. The stone steps up to the cottage were beautiful but only for the sure footed. Buddy, the dog, was a friendly greeter, but was always a fence between us. We really liked Buddy!

Everything I wanted
This stay was so lovely! The cabin was very charming and sweet. It came equipped with enough supplies to cook, make coffee, some books & it had a mini fridge. I run cold and was worried about staying in a cabin but the temperature was self controlled & the insulation was surprisingly great! The porch onto the pond was such a beautiful site.The host’s dog greeted me every time I came on and off the property. This was a 10 minute drive to town also. It was truly a magical stay, and the host was sweet but not overbearing, even though she lives on the property, and there’s another cabin to rent on the land but I still got the tranquility and solitude I needed. I’d definitely book again.

We had a wonderful time and experience at the Cozy Cottage! It was perfect for what we needed, and was secluded enough while also being close to all areas of the city. Buddy the dog was also a nice and gentle welcomer!

Cozy place, however the mattress needs to be replaced. It was uncomfortable and had two distinct craters in it. Would suggest the stone steps going up to the cottage from the parking area be updated for safety reasons. It is pretty, but uneven. The host Patti and her sweet dog, Buddy, were friendly. Close to Asheville downtown, Blue Ridge Parkway, River Arts District, etc. Loved this area!

Cute little house off Patty’s porch. Greetings and belly rubs from Buddy the dog were a highlight! Patty was super friendly and ready with recommendations of restaurants and breweries. Local pottery for sale inside the cottage was very cool. Will definitely stay here again!

Okay for a short stay
The cottage is cute and in a lovely setting. Everything was clean and inviting. The distance from town was just right if you’re looking for a place that is not downtown. A nearby Ingles grocery is handy. However, even with just the two of us we found the cottage a little cramped. The small kitchen area is okay for snacks but not for cooking a meal. As an older couple we’ve decided a queen bed is not for us so in the future we will stay only where there is a king bed. But most of all, the stone steps leading up to the cottage were tricky to navigate and not easy to do at night.

Wonderful Getaway
This was a nice little place to stay. Great location, close to downtown Asheville, Biltmore Estate, and lots of affordable, good dining. Our place was a cute little villa, the property manager, Patty was very pleasant, her dog, Buddy was sweet and friendly. Next time we visit Asheville, NC we would definitely stay at Cozy Cottages.

Inexpensive cottage close to Ashville. Not very private
Overall we enjoyed the stay. The pictures don’t make it clear that this cottage is very close (~5 feet) to the property owners residence. Wasn’t a big deal for us but probably not great if you planned on spending a lot of time hanging out at the cottage. Biggest actual complaint was the skylight over the bed with no curtain or blinds making sunrise wake up mandatory. Overall we were satisfied (but not thrilled) for the price we paid.

cozy getaway
What a perfect space for a weekend trip to Asheville to visit my nephew. The cottage is easy to get to but could get a little tricky at the end so Patty gave detailed directions to help us find this hidden gem. As others have written, we got a warm welcome from Buddy--he's quite the ambassador for the property! The cottage is immaculate and cleverly designed. The place is like a self-contained tiny house, with everything you could possibly need for your stay, including a comfy bed, full kitchen, fridge, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, nice size TV with Roku streaming...you name it. Patty has thought of literally everything, and even welcomed us with a bottle of wine--how thoughtful! The cottage has a little deck with seating for 4 and a grill (which we didn't get a chance to use). And down below along the stream there's a firepit and chairs nestled underneath a stand of bamboo. Wow! There's also seating down by the pond. Added bonus, Patty's granddaughter is a local artist who makes pottery, and some of her pieces are on display. We bought a couple of items as souvenirs to commemorate our trip. Next time I'm in the area, the cozy cottage will be my first choice to stay. Enjoy!

About the host

Hosted by Patty Squires

Host profile image
Owner lives in detached house on premises.
This is such a beautiful area where my children and I did a lot of camping when they were small. One of my sons settled here after going to UNCA where he met his wife.
He found this property for me, and I bought it just from seeing the photos. There was a small house and two out buildings that he completely rebuilt, and since I love making a warm and welcoming home I decided to rent the 2 out buildings for weekend vacationers.

Why they chose this property

Property is in a very unique area with a mountain stream, natural pond nestled in a secluded forest, yet minutes away from thriving downtown Asheville and Biltmore Estate.
A dock over the pond, deck surrounding the cabin, and fireside seats and benches provide quaint comfort to enjoy the views and bask in the beauty of the inspiring Blue Ridge Mountains. There is so much tranquility here and yet you are only minutes from downtown Asheville.

What makes this property unique

I knew I had made the right decision to retire here from the first time I stepped onto the property. It just felt like the home I had always dreamed of.
