Perfect getaway to the country but so close to everything. Asheville, Hendersonsonville and Brevard are all only 15 minutes away. Sit on either the front or back porch with a fenced in yard for playing and grilling, and watch deer running and jumping, cattle grazing across the way and a relaxed environment, yet with all the comforts and amenities of home.

The town of Mills River and the quaint historic downtown of Hendersonville offer unique main street with shops and eateries. You may also take in a Play from 1 of 2 Playhouses or a movie at several cinemas centrally located. It is home to The Apple Festival over Labor Day Weekend and Garden Jubilee in May, the Western NC Mountain State Fair, and future home of Sierra Nevada!

Historic Brevard is home the the White Squirrels, quaint downtown shopping, Brevard College, and many spring and summer art and music festivals.

Asheville is located just minutes north of the Cottage Inn and home to UNC Asheville, The Biltmore Estate, many art and music festivals and local Breweries. Historic downtown tours offer unique insight to the history of Asheville. Asheville offers a wide variety of shopping, dining and indoor and outdoor activites. It is an area rich in unique and eclectic art, dining, music, and outdoor adventures. There is something for everyone in Asheville.

Home away from Home

5 of 5
Submitted: April 19, 2013 Stayed: October 2012
Our family is relocating to NC. My husband, daughter and myself needed a place to live for a few months until we found a new place to call home. The owners were wonderful and very accommodating hosts. The Cottage is a lovely place with lots of natural light (clean and well maintained). We enjoyed the location and peaceful surroundings (green pastures/fields, beautiful trees and flowers). Staying at The Cottage Inn made our transition to NC enjoyable. We would recommend The Cottage Inn to anyone looking to get away.

Owner's Response: Thank you so much! We really enjoyed having you all stay. It was our pleasure to try to make your transition a little less hectic! We hope the very best for you and if you or those you know should ever need us, we are here for you!

Content in the country

5 of 5
Submitted: October 26, 2012 Stayed: October 2012
This country cottage is indeed charming. Well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, nice fluffy towels and VERY clean. A basket or apples and fresh baked cookies was also on the counter when we entered which was a very nice touch. We would stay there again if ever in the area; so much nicer than a hotel and actually less expensive than some of the nearby hotels. Enjoyed sipping my coffee on the front porch in the morning and watching the cows in the field across the street. Owner answered all my questions via phone calls and emails. We were in town for a wedding and the reception was only a mile and a half away, so this location was very convenient for us.

WHAT A GEM !!!!!!!!!

5 of 5
Submitted: October 2, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
This is truly a home-away-from-home!! From the minute you walk in your stay here is wonderful. The owners are awesome to work with. There was one very minor issue with the microwave and Floyd came right over and fixed it. We originally rented from Saturday to Thursday and then decided to stay two extra nights until Saturday - Corey was great in dealing with our change of plans. The cottage was absolutely gorgeous and had everything you needed. It was a very nice touch with the apple and cookie basket - thank you!! Perhaps the only item that would have been nice to have would be a barbeque grill. Very centrally located to all the towns we needed.

We would certainly stay here again and will pass the word to others going to Western North Carolina.
Thank you so much!!

Home Away From Home

5 of 5
Submitted: August 13, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
First let me say that my wife is very picky and my biggest concern when using VRBO is always whether or not the property will be clean enough for her.

My wife walked into the home and no less than 4 times in the first 3 minutes exclaimed, "It is so clean."

The beds were comfortable. TV's in every room. Friendly neighbors.

My wife also mentioned several times that they had everything we needed there. She did eventual notice two things that were missing- extra toilet paper and laundry detergent (though in fairness it does say in their book that you need to provide your own laundry supplies).

On the wall it says Welcome To Our Home Away From Home and that is exactly what it was.

Highly recommend the property.

Perfect

5 of 5
Submitted: July 30, 2012 Stayed: July 2012
As frequent visitors to the areas of Brevard and Asheville we have been looking for an alternative to hotels. We found it at the Cottage in Mills River. The listing description might want to use the PERFECT destination "description" as a reference as there is nothing but excellent comments to be made. The Inn Keepers are another positive as they took and take great care to make for the perfect stay; the cows across the street are equally friendly. Coming from city living the Cottage also provides the much needed room to stretch out and not be bumping into others.

Highly recommended and we will be back in the fall for another visit.
