Walk to Downtown from Charming Cottage, in Historic Montford 30 Day Minimum Stay
Welcome to our cottage in the Historic district of Asheville known as Montford. Enjoy the comfort of your own place for your vacation while exploring the many adventures that the area offers.
From this home you can easily walk to the vibrant and exciting downtown Asheville to people watch or attend live theater, visit art galleries, shop in the many eclectic stores, or dine at one of the over 65 restaurants! Known as the 'Paris of the South', Asheville is filled with many musical venues from bluegrass to pop to suit everyone's taste. Many people enjoy walking or cycling in the area surrounding this home.
This home has everything you need and then some for an enjoyable visit. Pets and guests have appreciated the fact that the small courtyard in the back is completely fenced in. This is a charming home with some antique furniture and high quality linens and other details. Exceptionally well-maintained by local folks with the comfort of the guest in mind. Entering the home from the back door brings you into the well equipped and maintained kitchen with more than enough supplies if you choose to cook. Through the kitchen is the dining and living room area which is cheery with natural light and well appointed, tasteful and comfortable furniture. The master and second bedrooms are off the living room with the bathroom separating the two. Watch the birds in the feeders while at the desk/computer or relaxing in front of the new tv.
After an adventure-packed day of one of the many activities such as hiking, biking, rafting, birding, or backpacking, you can relax ,, curl up with a book or dine with family or friends. This home is well appointed and tenderly cared for so you will be comfortable as you explore our wonderful mountain area in Western North Carolina.
Some guests prefer to hire a cleaning service during their stay, and we can highly recommend a 'green' cleaning company.
For folks who bring their dog but may be spending the day hiking or house hunting or any of the other adventures our area has to offer we have in-home pet care, 'while you are away your pet can play!'
NEW for our renters in services such as concierge, professional massage therapy.
Also go mountain biking in our beautiful mountains with a guide from Pisgah Mountain Bike Adventures!
Returning renters ask about reduced rates!
Everyone check with Patrick(contact) if you have unique start dates and/or times.
We are very flexible. Contact us for extended stays.
Want to enjoy a half day hike tailored to your needs?? We are offering our renters a half day hike to sample some of our beautiful trails within a short distance from this house. So pack up and let's take to the trails!
We can pick you up at the Asheville airport if you would like that at no extra cost!

About the host
Hosted by Patrick McMahon
I have been living in Asheville since 1999. It has been a wonderful place to raise my daughter and grow my business's. Not to mention an amazing place for outdoor adventures. Of course the selection of unique restaurants and places to visit are almost limitless. Those are just some of the reason's I cannot see myself living anywhere else.
Why they chose this property
We kept this property in the family. My mother bought this cozy cottage over 10 years ago. She has kept it a vacation rental from day one. I purchased it from her in 2018. This cottage has been a passion of hers. Now it is a passion of mine. I'm fortunate to have her by my side to help keep it running smoothly and allowing me and the cottage to benefit from her expertise. Since we both live in Asheville were able to keep a close eye on taking care of this charming cottage and give people the chance to see why we love living here in the mountains.
What makes this property unique
"This charming, historical house in Montford is simply wonderful in every way. The house is cozy and comfortable, equipped with everything you need, and has the most comfortable mattress ever! In the mornings the house is brimming with sunlight streaming through the many windows beckoning you to start your day with a walk in this lovely neighborhood. The location could not be better. You are within walking distance to several markets and are a few blocks from downtown shops and access to the highways. The house has off street parking in the back yard where you can enter the home without having to navigate stairs. I traveled with my dog and found the fenced backyard to be a wonderful benefit. The porches are a great spot for enjoying your morning coffee while doing some serious people watching! Rebecca is the reason why your stay will be so perfect. She is a fountain of information about Asheville and she’s happy to take the time to answer any questions you may have. The best part of my six week stay was developing a friendship with Rebecca." Karen B (renter review)
