I stayed here in November with my girlfriend for our anniversary. The cabin was clean and the area…read morewas also clean and nicely decorated. Our only issue was wasps, my girlfriend is allergic and there were 7 that we got rid of before the guy got there to vacuum the other live ones. The staff was very nice and I would definitely recommend this place if staying in the area. We looked at a couple other places and they were down right bland. We stayed here 4 nights since we were celebrating. Parking was easy and safe. The bed was comfortable and the cabin was very clean. The price was very reasonable and we were able to cook breakfast in the morning.

It was so nicely put together and the attention to details were definitely appreciated. The cabin came with everything you may need, while keeping it clean and organized. I loved the little touches like having puzzles and kid books in the loft. The touches of making it 'bird themed' were just enough, and didn't make you feel like you were in a Hitchcock movie. While this was a kid free weekend for us, we definitely could see it being perfect for a family as well. Everything was well maintained. Communication with the staff was fantastic and we were really able to unplug and unwind. If you do get antsy and want to go shopping or exploring, Lake Lure is just a short drive away. We would definitely stay here again.

We got to dock the boat overnight and took several cruises around the lake. The house is great. I would note that if you need any privacy this may not be the house for you.

We did have a little trouble doing simultaneous video calls. I would love to come back in the summer. The house is absolutely fantastic and well-appointed.

The loss of a star is for the cleanliness factor (which is perhaps one of my most desired traits of where I stay). We only stayed one night. There's a huge cleaning fee but there were ants all in the kitchen that destroyed bunch of bread we had on the counter, swarming it within hours. They had traps over the counters so it was known by owner. Lots of bugs in general inside but it is a pretty old house. Lights also blast in through windows that have sheer window treatments. I think if it were a little cleaner and had some black out curtains I would give it 5/5 stars for sure.

Excellent stay! Second time at Asheville Cottaged and we cannot say enough about the experience. They think of everything to make your experience top notch! We arrived and were feeling a little snacky. No problem! The snack tree and variety of waters/soft drinks/juiced beverages in the fridge were welcome! We browsed the binder for suggestions on where to grab dinner. After dinner at White Duck Taco, we stopped Ingles for a few groceries. Of course, Tracie and Marshall made sure each cottage had an Ingels savings card to use! Need a battery? Under the kitchen sink. Ziplock bag? Yep..,check a drawer in kitchen. They think of everything you may need and have it on hand for you! Loved the soaking tub! Loved the heated bathroom floor. Loved heated toilet seat. Accidentally hit a button on the bidet in the middle of the night and got a little surprise rinse off. . The big surprises were seeing a few bears late one afternoon behind the cottage (Magnolia). Thankfully, we just sat quietly on the deck and they looked at us and took off for the woods. Overall, it was a great trip and on the flight home, I started to look at availability to come back for a girls trip later in the Fall with my sister and niece. But before I could book anything, Hurricane Helene severely impacted the area. My heart breaks for all the families who lost loved ones in this disaster. By finding them on social media to see if they were ok, I found out that thankfully Asheville Cottages did not sustain much damage due to their location. Since Asheville tourism is essentially stopped, Tracie and Marshall have graciously opened their cottages to local families who have been displaced by the hurricane as they still have electricity and water. They also are still paying their employees salaries during this time (as they did during Covid) - taking care of them like family. THIS is exactly the kind of small business that my husband and I are proud to support so we will be staying at Asheville Cottages next time we come to Asheville...whenever that can happen.

Holy vacation, Batman…read more I stumbled upon a Groupon for Honey Hill Inn & Cabins when planning a trip to Asheville, without ever having been there. To date, it remains the best value I've gotten for accommodations anywhere and the best Groupon I've purchased. My best friend, her husband, and my boyfriend stayed in the two-bedroom Mount Mitchell cabin. We had the most spectacular view of the North Carolinian landscape you could imagine. Gretchen was an AMAZING chef and expertly cooked an outstanding breakfast for only $18/person additional (although breakfast is included is you stay in the actual inn--makes sense, since our cabin had a full kitchen). All of our other meals we either ate in town or prepared in our cabin, which had all of the most essential tools and supplies you need. On a post-breakfast stroll through the winding property, we were escorted by a friendly barn cat, who led us to a clearing that anchored four different-colored Adirondack chairs set next to one another, all facing a picturesque view of the Blue Ridge Mountains. In the evenings, we played board games on the front porch and watched movies in the comfortable living area. When we were feeling more spunky, my friend and I both rolled down the massive hill that is set right in front of the Mt. Mitchell cabin. We actually did this as we were about to be back on our way out of town, so we loaded up the car first and our guys picked us up at the bottom of the hill. Yes, the hill is that big. :) This remains one of my favorite and least expensive vacations. If it's even remotely on your mind, go!
