Photos and Description of the Asheville vacation cottage rental 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, sleeps 6-8

This ASHEVILLE MOUNTAIN COTTAGE (3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) in a wooded setting has picturesque old world charm that is reminiscent of an Italian Alpine cottage. A hot tub on the stone patio, cradled by massive rock walls, rests under a vine-draped pergola. The sunken garden has blueberries, raspberries, blackberries and fresh herbs to use in the gourmet kitchen, and a fire pit for roasting marshmallows. From the deck, you can enjoy close mountain views as you dine or sit around a blazing fire in the chiminea. Golfing, rafting and horseback riding are among the local attractions, as well as the Grove Park Inn and the famed Biltmore Estate. Hiking, mountain biking and scenic drives await you along the nearby Blue Ridge Parkway. Yet the fantastic restaurants and night life of Asheville are only a few minutes away. Here you can enjoy both town and country – truly the best of both worlds.

Red Gate Cottage is located in scenic Beaverdam Valley, which meanders past the country club golf course en route to the spectacular high mountains of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Peaceful and quiet, the cottage is within 10 minutes of the center of Asheville with its many world class restaurants, year-round live entertainment, museums, art galleries, theaters, concert halls, and large exhibitions at the Civic Center. Asheville is an antique hunter’s paradise, and the River Arts District (more than 80 artists’ studios) produces some of the best art in America. Shoppers will love the boutiques and specialty shops. A 24-hour grocery store is only 5 minutes away, and there are many gourmet shops – the Greenlife Market is not to be missed! The NC University campus is just minutes away. Black Mountain is within 30 minutes, and Lake Lure, Chimney Rock Park and Wolf Laurel Ski Resort are all within 45 minutes. Mt. Mitchell, highest mountain in the Eastern U.S., is an hour’s drive up the Parkway.

Further details for this vacation cottage rental in Asheville, North Carolina

Vintage log cabin on the outskirts of Asheville : Red Gate Cottage is a vintage log cabin faced with locally quarried stone, situated on a knoll at the edge of Beaverdam Valley. Semiskilled craftsmen working over decades, using stone and antique brick, produced an absolutely marvelous effect that makes the cottage resemble an ancient stone house in the Alps. The original log walls inside have been restored and preserved. The original cast iron cook stove is still in place. The labyrinth which graces the front of the property contributes to the overall fairy tale effect.

Romance and Celebration : The luxury renovation by the Architect/Owner features high pine-faced cathedral ceilings throughout. The river stone fireplace is a focal point where people enjoy gathering to watch movies and cable HDTV or to just soak up the relaxing atmosphere. It's the perfect venue for romantic couples, friends and family groups to celebrate holidays and special occasions. High demand dates include the summer Belle Chere Festival and the fall leaf season (through mid-November), Thanksgiving, and the Christmas holidays. The candlelight 'Christmas at the Biltmore' festivities are from Nov. 7 through Jan 3.

Close to Nature : Outside, the sounds of the abundant wild life mingle with those of barnyard animals from nearby farms. You may have to slow down for flocks of wild turkeys crossing the road. Guests recently saw a total of eight black bears (including 4 cubs) during their 10-day stay. So bring the children, bring the dog. Here, you can get away from it all but still stay in touch by telephone (free long distance) and high speed wireless internet.

Other Activities: golf, spas, YMCA, dancing, yoga, boating, live music, great shops, coffee houses, farmers market, NC University activities, nature center

Best Family Vacation

Boating66 Palm City, FL
Review Submitted: October 27, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
My family stayed at Red Gate Cottage, we have three children two 5 yr. olds and an 8 yr. old.We loved the yard, the berry bushes, the hot tub, the fire for roasting marshmallows, the patios and the playground. There is so much to do in Asheville and the surrounding area that we spent the days exploring and returned home in the evening to enjoy the house and the yard. We made most of our dinners at home so we could relax and enjoy the fireflies and the stars. The food store and restaurants were very close. Try the Asheville Brewing Company for dinner and a movie. We did see a family of wild Turkeys crossing the road while we picking berries one morning. It was a perfect home, with all the amenities you would need. We had the best family vacation and it was more then we could have expected. Thank you Georgia for the use of your beautiful home.

Very Clean Peaceful Cottage

FaithP Brandon, FL
Review Submitted: October 7, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
We really enjoyed our stay. This cottage has wonderful amenities, the location is perfect for easy day trips to the Blue Ridge or just sitting on the deck enjoying the fire in the chiminea. We didn't want for anything - there are even robes and thongs for the hot tub! I highly recommend this cottage!

Amazing cottage!

Mer-Mer Opelika, AL
Review Submitted: September 16, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
Just got back from an amazing trip to Red Gate Cottage. Visiting Asheville with 2 girlfriends (and hubbies) to run the Citizen-Times Half Marathon. The RGC was the perfect place for the 5 of us to relax before & after the race! Especially in the hot tub!!! We were greeted upon our arrival with a plate of oatmeal cookies and a bottle of wine. It doesn't get much better than that!!! The house was immaculate and had everything you need!! The kitchen was well stocked and we had everything we needed to cook a great meal the night before our race!

I have rented a lot of vacation property through vrbo.com and Red Gate's owner, Georgia, is no doubt the most easy going and pleasant person I've dealt with yet!!

We will definitely be going back!

Perfect getaway

Julie and Meredith Birmingham, AL
Review Submitted: August 30, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Red Gate Cottage is the perfect place to stay in Asheville. The cottage is accurately described and presented in the photos. However, something especially appealing about the cottage that is not fully captured in the photos are the private spaces that abound on the property. For either a group of friends or a family (especially one with pre-teens or teens), one can escape easily to a secluded spot (the lower yard with a fire pit, the hot tub in the back of the property, the outside dining area on the deck, the hammock in the upper yard, etc.) to enjoy the serenity of the mountain surroundings peacefully.
Red Gate Cottage is located off of Merrimon Avenue which has many fine restaurants and grocery stores and leads directly to downtown Asheville. It is also close to UNC Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway entrance, as well as other attractions.
Finally, the owner is very professional and clear in her expectations of renters. Although not necessary for our stay, she graciously expressed a willingness to make accommodations for us in several regards.
In sum, Red Gate Cottage is an excellent place to stay in Asheville. We will probably return soon (especially because the facility also allows dogs) and would highly recommend it to friends (in fact, we already have).

Sister reunion

4sisters Charleston, SC southeast US
Review Submitted: July 26, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
My 3 sisters and I come to the Asheville area each summer for a time together and to be near our dad who is in a nearby nursing home. We were delighted to be in the Red Gate cottage! Even though it is located near downtown Asheville, the beautiful landscaping provided a nice element of privacy. We took advantage of the fresh mountain air with open windows. We spent time in the hot tub (a must for our rentals), ate on the front deck, played board games, read, and were close enough to be with our dad some each day.
The beds were very comfortable, the kitchen well stocked,and the decorating charming. We liked having spaces to spread out and took advantage of the chiminea on the front deck and the fire pit and seating area down in the yard.
We were able to meet Georgia, the owner, who was very helpful, appreciated our suggestions, and gave us a fascinating history of the cottage.
We would love to return to this "perfect" hideaway!
