About this property

Suite 3, Quick Stroll to Downtown

Charming mountain retreat in the heart of Black Mountain! This spacious one-bedroom suite with a queen size bed is perfect for couples or solo adventurers. Located just steps from the Downtown Historic District, you can easily walk to famous shops, restaurants, and breweries. Enjoy a fully-equipped space with fast Wi-Fi and a cozy atmosphere. Please note, this is an upper-level unit requiring stair access.

Black Mountain Lodge has five units, each with a separate entrance. There are some steps up to the front porch. From there you will find the entry, where there is a stairway leading up from the front porch bringing you to Apartment 3. This 388 sq ft space faces the front of the house and offers beautiful views of the mountains. The entry brings you to the small but well appointed kitchen, where you will find everything you need for preparing meals, as well as a drip coffee maker. The adjoining bedroom features a couple of swing style chairs and a smart tv you can use to log into your streaming subscriptions. There are lots of windows that bring in natural light and give the space a cheerful atmosphere. There is 1 queen bed for sleeping up to 2 guests. Due to fire zoning regulations we cannot allow cots or air mattresses on the floor.

This home is over 100 years old and sits among large, old trees. Unfortunately due to this setting, insects will often make their way into the home.

We welcome pets, and if you bring one please be considerate of other groups in the building. Please no dogs that bark if you are away. Dogs must be in a crate if left alone. Keep dogs on a leash at all times.

This is a non smoking, non vaping property. No smoking or vaping allowed inside or outside.

Please note that we do not have a front desk or concierge service. Staying with us will require some “self sufficiency”. You can self check in any time after 4pm and self check out any time before 10am on your day of departure.

We are available during reasonable hours to address any questions or concerns, but please note that we are not a corporation and do not have 24 hour staff.

This is a very old house with gas furnaces for heat and window units for air conditioning. You may hear your neighbors. But we do ask that all guests be respectful of one another.

Our address is visible for you to map prior to your booking so you can verify the location. 33 Vance Avenue, Black Mountain, NC.

Great location to walk to the downtown in Black mountain

Decided on a last minute getaway and were lucky enough to find this little apartment A unit in an older home, very compact and clean .We walked to all food and drink options all weekend. A short drive to hike nearby Lookout Mountain on Friday morning. Safe location and I’d come here even as a single woman. Loved it and will be back! Note there are stairs and no elevator to our room but there were downstairs rooms. Pet friendly. Kitchenette and fridge. New shower in tiny bathroom.

Only messages from host which were adequate. I did not realize our suite was on the second floor. The heater was noisy, loud popping sounds throughout the night. It was an old heater sitting next to the bed. So, it interrupted our sleep. Bed could only be gotten into on left side or by crawling up the right side.
