Ursa Minor Cabin in Black Mountain

Ursa Minor Cabin – A Romantic Mountain Escape in Black Mountain, NC

Welcome to Ursa Minor, your cozy mountain getaway nestled in the heart of Black Mountain. Thoughtfully updated and surrounded by nature, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom cabin is the perfect retreat for those seeking peace, connection, and a touch of adventure.

Step onto the spacious front porch, where Adirondack chairs and a full dining table invite you to sip coffee at sunrise or share a candlelit dinner under the stars. Inside, you’ll find a warm and welcoming living space with plush seating, a Roku TV, and a small workspace for those moments when you need to check in with the world—before returning to mountain serenity.

The fully stocked kitchen makes it easy to cook romantic meals at home, and the back deck offers even more privacy, with forest views and a propane grill for easy outdoor dining.

The main level features the inviting living area, kitchen, a convenient half bath, and the charming Bear Room, perfect for extra guests or little ones with 2 Twin Beds. Downstairs, unwind in the King Suite, or cozy up in the second bedroom featuring both a queen and a twin bed—ideal for couples traveling with friends or family. A full bath with a double vanity and tub/shower combo, plus a laundry area, complete the lower level.

In the front yard, gather around the fire pit to roast marshmallows, share a bottle of wine, and watch the stars emerge over the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Just minutes from downtown Black Mountain, Ursa Minor offers the best of both worlds—a peaceful wooded retreat with easy access to charming shops, restaurants, hiking trails, and nearby Asheville attractions.

Whether you’re planning a romantic escape or a quiet mountain getaway, Ursa Minor invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and make lasting memories in the heart of Western North Carolina.

**Please Note** The stairs to the lower level are very steep. This is not ideal for young children, people with mobility issues, or geriatric pets. We have a gate at the top of the steps to help limit access. Please be prepared to use caution.
The Living Room Fireplace is currently inoperable, but it will be functional in 2026.

This is a well maintained, well appointed cabin in an easy to get to location near Black Mountain. I have two places in Black Mountain that I frequent, and both were around 1.5 miles away (in different directions). Plenty of bed space, nice outdoor spaces, and overall very clean. Good communication with the property managers as well. The only thing that could be a downside for some is there are houses on each side and downhill. If you are looking for a secluded getaway this may be a consideration for you. For me no problem with the neighbors (I didn't really see anybody), and the stay was great.
