Wonderful home in great location
We loved our one-week stay. We picked the home in part because of the many positive reviews, and they were all spot-on. The home was very warm and personal, and equipped with all the amenities we needed. WiFi was reliable. The host was very responsive. Montreat was a pleasant walk. Black Mountain has a cozy center with many shops and restaurants and was an easy 5min drive. The home is also well located for various daytrips, including e.g. to Ashville, Chimney Rock, and the Great Smokey Mountains. Highly recommended.

Wonderful property with great owner communication
We had a wonderful stay and loved the home! The side deck is delightful and a great place for outdoor dining. Be aware the downstairs bath is suitable for elderly persons, but the high bed is not. We would rent here again.

Great House
This is a great house in an excellent location in Montreat. The house has great indoor and outdoor living spaces and the property is in excellent condition. It also has a beautiful first floor master bedroom suite which made the house a great choice for our 3 generation family.

Great house in the heart of Montreat! Excellent house and property
The house was in a great location! Convenient to downtown Black Mountain and everywhere in Montreat. It was very clean and had everything needed. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come again. The only reason I gave it less than 5 stars on the listing accuracy was that there was what appeared to be a security camera inside of the house in the den area, which wasn't disclosed in the listing that I noticed while we were there.

Inviting home in a beautiful area
Molly came to our rescue when another booking fell through because it was not wheelchair accessible. Her quaint Inglenook Cottage was exactly what our group needed for a quick but restful weekend getaway. The home was very clean and well stocked with basic essentials upon arrival. Molly was easy to work with during booking and completely available for any questions during our stay. I hope we can return to her property in the future! As for accessibility, the manual wheelchair user in our group had no difficulty navigating the entire main level of the home. The master bed is quite high, but there is a comfortable sleeper sofa in the den that is considerably lower. The bathroom on the main level has an amply wide door, a roll under sink, and grab bars in the tub/shower (no shower seat/bench). There are no grab bars near the toilet, but our group member brought an adaptive over-the-toilet seat to make transferring easier.

Wonderful!
This property is all that is described and more! It was super clean, the kitchen was stocked better than my kitchen at home, the beds were comfy and the towels were fluffy. The house was chock full of family memories that enveloped us. It was wonderful. The owner, Molly, was very accessible for questions and issues. (The only issue was my fault! 😬). She had little informative notes stuck all around the house that left little doubt as to what was what and where. We definitely hope to return one day!

Common Thread - Would Come Again!
Here for a nearby family wedding, our crew consisted of 8 adults and one infant and except for the youngest being, the common thread at the end of our stay was that Molly's place was a gem and each of them could see them coming back to Inglenook again. We made use of all the bedding options and the three bathrooms kept our crew on time. The multiple areas for gathering gave everyone space. The kitchen was well stocked and beds were comfortable. Easy to take strolls from the house down to the park, fish in the creek or hike up Look Out Mountain with options to make a longer hike. We walked into town Saturday morning for the tailgate farmer's market and visited breweries in town. We lunched at the Cuban restaurant's outdoor area in the back. We took advantage of the cool nights and opened windows. A quiet, spacious, well stocked mountain house with no downsides to share.

About the host

Hosted by Molly Brown

Host profile image
This home has been in our family since 1981 and we have spent almost every major holiday here together, including Christmas and New Year's, Thanksgiving, Easter and July 4th. Our parents retired to this home in the 1990's and we continued to spend many occasions together each year in Montreat as they grew older and spent their golden years in this wonderful community. Montreat was created to provide a sanctuary for Presbyterian clergy to retire here after their years of service.

Why they chose this property

Although our parents have passed away, this home is their legacy to my sister, me and our children who spent so much time here with their grandparents...Our home away from home. Our families come up often to spend time together making new memories. We want to invite you and your family (or friends) to experience the wonder of Montreat in our special home and make your own memories.

What makes this property unique

If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, you can escape to Montreat where life slows down and you can listen to nature in this quiet setting. Whether you are sitting on the porch reading a book, cooking a family meal, playing some cards on the covered deck watching the afternoon showers, watching a football game, taking an afternoon stroll to Lake Susan, or visiting in front of the fireplace --- these are the memories you will want to share with your family and friends.
