An original Black Mountain College cottage in a private wooded property
Built in the 1940's, this cottage was constructed as a Black Mountain College faculty lodging. It is believed to be the only house ever designed by Josef Albers, the famed artist who taught for many years at the school after leaving the Bauhaus in Germany. The cottage has been renovated and added onto over the years with a front porch, rear deck, 4 bedrooms, full kitchen and more. The deck overlooks a private yard next to a stream that quietly babbles on its way to our private lake.

Fantastic Stay in the Mountains with Family
We had a wonderful stay at Albers Cottage, which was inviting and warm, nestled in the woods and we enjoyed the privacy. House had extremely sturdy furniture with colorful rugs and art abounded and in terms of that all was perfect and the wifi worked pretty good. The kids shared they would have liked a bigger tv. We enjoyed time with family and that we were able to dine at the huge table all together. We all struggled with finding the cabin and the map made sense once we knew the lay of the land, but to be fair part of the charm is that it is tucked out of the way. We would definitely stay here again or maybe in one of the glampers at Eden Resort. One thing I especially appreciated is that typically we stay at cabins and they offer starter toilet paper etc..but we had enough toilet paper and dishwashing supplies etc. for our trip provided. Even fatwood to start a fire and nice pots and pans were in the cabinets including cutting boards, which we enjoyed when we cooked up our freshly caught trout. Thank you again, Leah and Eden Resorts! We will be back!

We definitely would stay again

Black Mountain Getaway
Prof. Alber's House is a really cool place to stay. Very unique setting of the professor's house on an old wooded and meadowed college campus. I can only wonder what it was like in its heyday! The house was just as the photos show, everything was clean, neat, and organized. Lots of books to read. We had plenty of room and loved sitting on the back deck listening to nature. Leigh was very attentive to our needs, personally checking on us with Remy dog, batteries for the remote and having the lights on for our after-sundown arrival. In Black Mountain, numerous shops and restaurants and some live music. Looking forward to coming back to Lake Eden Retreat/Black Mountain College.

Lake Eden
Issues: the ceiling fans had cobwebs on them, the AC vents on the lower level had dust in them that was visible from afar, lightbulb out on lower level was out , attic access door in family room closet was wide open, key ring would not stay fastened so we replaced the ring so that we wouldn’t lose a key.
Bright spots- Craig the property manager was great. Location to our extracurricular activities was great. Just Wished we knew ahead of time that we had no access to lake activities other than fishing.

Great cabin
Everything about this cabin was excellent. We especially loved sitting on the front deck in the evening sun and spending time in the older, more historic part of the cabin with the old stone fireplace. The kitchen was well equipped. Art and decor showed great individual taste - we would have done it in a similar way! There is one en-suite bathroom for the bedroom to the left of the door and another bathroom accessible from the dining area that serves the rest of the cabin. That worked well for us.

Peaceful mountain retreat
What a beautiful place for a vacation! This is our second time staying at the Albers, and it hasn’t disappointed. This cottage isn’t fancy, but it’s clean and comfortable, and you can’t beat the natural beauty and interesting history. The owner was also super nice, helpful and knowledgeable about the area and its history. We’ll be back!

Awesome
Absolutely beautiful scenery and location. We had 5 adults and 2 children, and had plenty of space! Only issue I had was there are no smoke detectors or fire extinguishers, other than that it was a great place to stay!

90th birthday
Beautiful place and great location. Because we had two 90 years old we had to pull up the area rugs. I have to admit I slipped on them too. But other than that we enjoyed the rocking chairs, the fire pit every night and the moonlight. This place is very clean and a wonderful place to have our small gathering. Thank you

Home and property were as described. The grounds were really, really beautiful. Close to everything but very much in nature. Plenty of room for our family to stretch out. Would love to stay longer next time.

Property in poor condition
The property, while historic, was well past cabin shabby chic. The property is dilapidated and in need of a full renovation . The photos and price do not give a true representation of the dis-repair. The deck is rotting, baths are falling apart, doors are rotten and let in bugs. It has s potential, but truly should not have been up for rent in its current condition.

Very quiet with plenty of space.
The location is far enough out of town to be peaceful but close enough to go into town if that's your thing. Would recommend and would stay again. Host is very nice. Thanks for a nice stay.
