The house was easy to find, had everything we needed. Bill checked on us shortly after we arrived to make sure everything was in order. Even in a fairly busy area, it was extremely quiet. We had a very nice visit and would definitely stay again.

Enjoyable Cottage

Cranberry Cottage is a quaint little cottage that was perfect for me and my 3 dogs. The fenced in back yard was a great place to let the dogs run around in. I did not get the chance, but I bet sitting on the patio around the fireplace would be wonderful!

This place was great. Just what I needed for me and my husband plus our two dogs. Was very clean. The yard was super cute for kids or dogs and the firepit was a bonus. Very nice hosts. It could use slight upgrades in terms of furniture but everything was tidy and functional. It was about 5-10 minutes from downtown area and you could probably walk to some breweries in about a mile! Overall we would stay here again I really feel like the photos make it look smaller than it actually was. We had a good time!

Black mtn trip for baseball

The cottage was very cute and comfortable. For a one bedroom cottage it was very roomy. It was just myself staying, but it could accommodate more. The host was easy to get in touch with. It was very good if you’re traveling with a pet because I loved the fenced in private yard. It was cool and shady and a nice place to sit even in warmer weather. It is just minutes from downtown Black Mountain and you could walk there if you wanted to. My dog and I also enjoyed walking at lake Tomahawk Park, which was less than a mile away. I would definitely consider staying there again if I’m in the area.

Just what we needed.

It was just what we needed for the weekend. The owners were responsive and accomodated our request. It was clean and the size and location worked great for us. The property was quirky but included evrything we needed. More lighting between the gate and the front door would be really awesome.

About the host

Hosted by Bill Alexander

Host profile image
We love to travel and love to cater to other travelers coming to visit our beautiful area. We live in Asheville but frequent Black Mountain often to visit our parents who live there, to hike our favorite trails and simply to enjoy the small mountain village vibe thats just a few minutes from Asheville. We manage our rentals as a large family operation often letting our 11 and 8 year old girls assist as well as sometimes calling on my parents to help as they live less than a mile away. We look forward to hosting you at our cottage.

Why they chose this property

This is the place for a couple, or close friends, who want to visit the Asheville/ Blue Ridge area; and not be car-dependent for shopping and dining,yet maintain quiet privacy indoors and out. it is cozy, safe, comfortable. Someone will enjoy Cranberry Cottage if they visit the restaurants and music venues that are within walking distance, enjoy hiking or driving the Blue Ridge Parkway, and want a compact one bedroom Cottage comfortable for two people and a great private yard for pets or a child.

What makes this property unique

Cranberry Cottage is close in to downtown Black Mountains , 10-15 minutes to Asheville, in a quiet wooded residential area , yet very private and secure for visiting children(2 or 4 legged)!
South facing double-double doors face the southern Swannanoa mountains yet the cottage is covered in the shade of 100 year old hardwoods. Great gas grill, sitting area, firepit outdoors. Easy parking. Very, Very safe area.
