Mars Hill cabin rentals

Great mountain get away! Beautiful views

This lovely cabin was very clean and stocked with everything needed for a nice stay. The river seating area (across the street from the cabin) is private and calming. Take a sweater or jacket with you to the river. The hot tub is private and a nice way to unwind after a day of hiking and exploring. Be aware that after the 2024 Hurricane Helene, there is not much to do in Hot Springs beyond hiking the Appalachian Trail, but the town is friendly and accessible. Definitely dine at the Smokey Mountain Diner and hike the Lover's Leap Trail, which are both very close to the cabin. The binder in the cabin detailing what to do nearby was created pre-hurricane, so not all options therein are currently available. The road is quiet, as it virtually leads to nowhere. It was fun to walk this gravel portion, though, as we tried to find Paint Rock. We thought four wheelers would have made it even more fun (if you have some to take). The CABIN IS ON THE PAVED PORTION of the road, so we had NO PROBLEMS reaching it, and it has flat parking. The owner is friendly and helpful if you need her, but not at all pushy. Take your own fishing poles if you'd like to fish the river. For a small but packed antique store, head down 25/70 toward Newport and shop at State Line Antiques on the right and Grandma's Blessings Thrift Store a little further on the left. We enjoyed our 3-nights of star-gazing, hiking, antiquing, and relaxing. Highly recommend!

Wonderful solitude! If you're looking for a quiet sabbatical, this is the place!

To say that our stay in this gorgeous house was perfect would be an understatement. It’s difficult to envision a cabin that could be more perfectly suited to its surroundings. The house itself was lovely - from the architecture of the building itself, to the beautifully handmade furniture, to the hand crafted floor and table lamps, down to the coffee mugs - everything was thoughtfully presented and very comfortable. And the view defies description. This property was perfectly situated by itself, giving the utmost privacy in the middle of a beautiful forest, yet it was only ten minutes into town, with all that Asheville has to offer. And as much as we enjoyed the city and surrounding areas, it was always a highlight to come back to the house and that porch! We cannot recommend this house highly enough.

We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We made a change from a summer beach trip to the mountains looking to get away from the usual June beach crowd and vacationers. This was an ideal location. We still had fun in the water, great food locations, and great evenings playing games and catching up. Plus we got to stretch our legs hiking this year. Far away from it all yet so close! The host was wonderful with mid-week questions and we had no problems or concerns the entire week with our stay.

Couldn't be better! Cabin as described. Quiet, rural area close to the city. Host responsive and helpful

The Cozy Cabin was perfect! As advertised too. The proximity to the quaint Black Mountain town was just close enough for easy access but yet far enough so you didn’t hear traffic and goings on. The cabin was super clean, well stocked, and comfy. You won’t be disappointed!

Daron and Elizabeth are the BEST hosts and this cabin is absolutely perfect if you are looking for a cabin getaway in the mountains. The cabin itself is perfect: great wood burning fireplace, fully restored cabin with all the amenities (great wifi), and no issues with hot water or appliances. Daron was great with communication and Elizabeth was so gracious to show us their farm with llamas, goats, sheep, chickens and ducks! They give you fresh eggs when you arrive, have coffee grounds and firewood aplenty. Honestly I can't imagine a better place or better hosts. We are so grateful for them and would stay here again in a heartbeat. You absolutely MUST check this place out!
