About this property

Chickadees Cottage and Pottery - centrally located, private comfortable cottage.

Adorable cottage with all your travel needs accounted for.

We strive to create a dog and child friendly space that is also a romantic and chic setup for couples or business travelers alike.
Visit the small creek that runs through the back of the property and watch for wildlife. Enjoy evenings around the large fire ring. Relax and visit on the rocking chair front porch or enjoy a meal on the back deck.

The cottage is situated in the middle of all there is to do. 20 minutes to downtown Asheville and Hendersonville, and Brevard. Within 10-15 minutes to the airport, Sierra Nevada, the arboretum, French broad River, the Biltmore estate and access to the blue ridge parkway.
Throughout the cottage you will find pottery and art made by local artists.

Next door to the cottage is a working pottery and art studio. Guests are invited to watch demonstrations from professional potters and see the finished art in our display area.

You can also contact me to set up pottery lessons and group clay dates!

Come home to Chickadees!

A lovely ‘home away from home’

My friend and I were biking in DuPont and Pisgah Forest. Chickadees provided us with all the home like amenities with an air of relaxation. Perfect after a day on the trails. Nestled next to a horse paddock and surrounded by blooming trees and bushes it invites calm and a restful vibe. It was a short drive to anything we wanted and needed. Becky was a lovely host and taking a pottery class with her was the ‘cherry on top’ of it all! We would go back for sure!

Perfect cottage in the Perfect Location

This lovely cottage in the country was just perfect in every way! Quiet, pastoral setting just minutes away from Asheville and the Biltmore. Owner was readily available. Cottage had every amenity we could have wanted or needed, and was decorated and furnished with care and great taste. Our dog loved walking the grounds. We'd return in a flash and have already recommended this property to friends who have family living in Asheville.

Ideal Retreat

The home is welcoming and relaxing. Perfect distance for day tripping to Asheville, but cozy and comfortable for staying out and chatting or playing board games. Our group of three loved it - would definitely go again, either for another girls’ trip or with our families. Bex was fantastic to communicate with and made us feel welcomed while giving us privacy. Do yourself a favor and book this place! Highly recommend the pottery class!

Wonderful experience

We came because there was a pottery studio so we could take lessons but got much more. Our host was kind and helpful, the house was roomy and comfortable. The grounds were great for walking my dog. I would stay again anytime.

Asheville Trip

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful stay at Chickadees cottage! The cottage was so peaceful and decorated very cute with touches of beautiful homemade pottery everywhere! We brought our dog and she loved running around and exploring the grassy property. The host was very responsive and organized. We took a pottery class on our last day in town. It was the perfect end to our trip and made our experience so special!

Weekend Getaway

I took my family to Chickadees Cottage over the weekend. The property was quant, quite, and comfortable. It’s definitely a great place if you’re looking for a getaway from the city. Also, if your into a looking to go explore Asheville, or the Biltmore estate, it’s just a short 15-20 minute drive away. The owner is very accommodating and very responsive to any questions that we had. I would definitely recommend!

Darling little cottage filled with beautiful handmade pottery

The best way we could find to describe our stay was that it felt like going to your grandparents' home. It was so cozy and comfortable, and all of the little details were thought through. We loved the coloring materials provided, the essential oils, and the beautiful pottery throughout the house. Would definitely recommend this home!

Cottage getaway

Chickadee cottage is a great stay for people that want to be away from the city, but still close enough to enjoy Asheville attractions. I loved how peaceful the location was. The cottage was very clean, well maintained, and stocked with kitchen essentials for cooking. The host left a book with everything you needed to know for the stay, which was very helpful. I highly recommend booking this VRBO!

Great pet friendly home

We loved our stay in this cozy two bedroom pet friendly house. It will be our go to when returning to the area. The private lot and dog walking trail in back was nice for our dogs. Had it been warmer we would have cooked on the grill outside and used the fire pit! The house was well stocked with essentials for our brief stay and it was very comfortable. 5 stars!

Perfect home for a spontaneous weekend!

I can’t say enough about how wonderful the home was. It’s 20 minutes to Asheville 20 minutes to moonshine mountain just around the corner from the Pisgah National Forest in Looking Glass Falls. Our family enjoyed the cabin very much there’s horses in the backyard and it is just a magical property. The homeowner has thought about everything from coffee in the kitchen, hot chocolate, and teabags so that if you forgot them if they’re even coffee filters. The home was very clean and very comfortable. This will be our go to home of choice in Arden North Carolina.

Excellent stay!

The property was perfect! We were close to our daughter’s house for Christmas which was wonderful. The house was clean and cozy. It was outfitted with pots, pans, and all necessary utensils. The pottery in the house is awesome. I only wish that we had a chance to visit the workshop. We had our dog with us and that worked out well too. Definitely would stay there again.

Best VRBO I’ve ever stayed in!!

Terrific neighborhood and parking right in front of the house. Very convenient to downtown Asheville, without being too close to huddle and bustle. 20 minute easy drive. The host was attentive and friendly. The house is absolutely adorable. Comfortable beds and plenty of towels and places to put things. Kitchen had everything you could need Living room is so comfortable and the pottery is beautiful. Porch front and back furnished and nicely decorated. We hope to stay there every time we come back.
