Accessibility

Neighborhood

Treetop Cottage is located in an in-town yet secluded neighborhood. All homes in the neighborhood are set on two to three acre parcels to preserve privacy and enjoy the natural beauty of this place. The neighborhood and homes are easily accessed by single lane gravel roads. People walk them as much as they drive them. Even with the privacy of the neighborhood, the cottage is two miles from the Village of Cheshire with restaurants, a boutique food market, and our local YMCA. Downtown Black Mountain is a quick five-minute drive offering shopping, a supermarket, restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, and bookstores. Lake Tomahawk is a pleasant place to walk and take in the views of the Seven Sister Mountain range. Our rec park is a mile from your front door, complete with playing fields and a disc golf course. The larger and eclectic Asheville is only 15-20 minutes away depending on your destination. Explore the breweries, shops, eateries, and bohemian culture. Black Mountain and Asheville are surrounded by national forests and a hour or more drive to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park (depending on where you enter). There is an outdoor adventure in almost any direction you turn. A hiking, climbing, paddling, biking, and fly fishing paradise. If rest and play are both things you enjoy, look no further than Treetop Cottage.

Our stay was absolutely perfect! The home is beautiful, spotless, and exactly like the photos. The kitchen was well supplied with everything we needed, and the bed was super comfy. We especially loved spending time on the wonderful deck with the propane fire pit, which was such a peaceful spot to relax. The location couldn’t be better — close to the charming town of Black Mountain, with its many interesting shops and restaurants, and just a short drive to Asheville. The hosts had great communication and shared lots of helpful information, including videos, about how the house ran, which made for a smooth and stress-free stay. We will definitely be back, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great stay in the area.

This home was the perfect place to stay! Its location was the perfect balance of being peaceful and secluded while also being close to multiple attractions, restaurants, essentials, and major roadways. It was beautiful and clean and Erica was a great host. I would absolutely stay at one of Erica's properties again.

Erica’s cottage in Black Mountain provided the retreat our family of four needed after 10 days of road-tripping. The home was clean, comfortable, naturally lit, nicely furnished, and thoughtfully stocked. The porch, y’all, just go for the porch! The kids loved the loft space. We appreciated the access to laundry, and as a shower guy, I must note that it’s spacious with great water pressure. The driveway is pretty steep, with little room for turning around at the top landing, but I managed just fine in a loaded, front-wheel-drive minivan. There’s an easily accessible parking spot about halfway up if you’re not feeling adventurous. The location has that secluded, forested mountain feeling (a plus for us) but is only a short drive to the cool little town center, trailheads, grocery store, etc. We enjoyed Black Mountain so much that we tossed our plans to head into Asheville. We didn’t see any black bears… maybe next time!

We love this place. Sitting on the large porch every day was so quiet and calming, the bed is comfy, the welcome wine was much appreciated! This was our second time here and won’t be the last!

Beautiful cottage, very tastefully furnished. Tranquil location in the woods just a short drive to town. The only downside is no immediate trail access but the convenience of the location and the quality of the house more than make up for it. Would definitely come back. Great host too!

Erica was an amazing host. The cabin was exactly what we were looking for. The locals were awesome. Cute little shops. Convenient location and yet secluded. The kids loved it and the adults thoroughly enjoyed the ease and comfort.

Find us

Since Treetop Cottage is accessed by a single lane gravel road a car is necessary. All the roads in the neighborhood are safe, and easy to navigate. You may need to yield to a neighbor, but if you drive with care and caution there is no need for concern. No public transportation comes to the house, but an Uber or Lyft will get you here just fine. GPS may lead you down the wrong road, but when you book we will send you detailed instructions on exactly where to go. The roads are also great for walking, just take care not to go up any private driveways.
