Mountain Views/Family Retreat

Everywhere you want to visit in Asheville is open and waiting for you! (1/1/2025)

Come relax at our mountain home retreat! Enjoy our beautiful view of the mountains and visit with the wild turkeys and occasional bear. Our “Mountain Rose” is nestled in a quiet country-like setting within 6 miles of downtown Asheville. Asheville has lots of great restaurants, shops, galleries, music, art, hiking and breweries. We are also less than 3 miles to Warren Wilson College, within a mile of their hiking trails, near the Blue Ridge Parkway and the Folk Art Center. Other nearby activities include golfing, tennis, and river rafting. If skiing and winter sports are your thing, Wolf Ridge Ski resort is 45 minutes away.
You will enjoy having the main floor/upper level all to yourselves as well as the back yard. When you are ready to eat, cook a meal in the fully equipped kitchen. enjoy the mountain view on one of our chaise lounges inside or from one of the decks.
If it starts to get chilly, sit by the fire in the living room or master bedroom.
When you are ready to turn in for the night enjoy one of our lovely bedrooms, one with a king bed and a chaise (slightly smaller than a twin bed) that can be made up as a bed in the master alcove, the other has a queen bed. Both bedrooms and the dining room have cellular shades on the windows.
There are two full bathrooms, one with a tub and shower, the other with a roomy shower.
Guests should know that while we live in Black Mountain, we occasionally stay in a separate and independent living space in the lower level. We will keep you up to date about when we will be in our space during your stay. You can request to be at the house alone.

Enjoyable stay in a great location!

We loved this location- it was honestly perfect between Asheville and Black Mountain. We hiked every day and there are numerous trails within less than 30 minutes drive. We ate out in East Asheville as well as Black Mountain. Excellent stay- read carefully the description! It is accurate, but I don’t think our friends kiddos would have been able to stay in the space with the lounge chairs that turn into beds. The master bedroom is large enough for kiddos to stay with you in there. Overall rating was a 5 but I will say there were a few kitchen items we could have used (larger sheet pan and better knives). But really I would give it a 4.5 and I imagine they could remedy quickly by sharpening knives and purchasing a bigger sheet pan! :-) The home also does need to be aired out when you arrive, but this is a very quick fix with great and easy to open windows.

Three Week Stay

With the length of our stay, I think we can give an accurate assessment of Rose Mtn. Cottage Pros: This house has a good layout, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The sunporch was enjoyable and we loved the lounge chairs. Communication with Karen was very good, always responding quickly to our messages, including clearing a tree that fell over the driveway. Cons: The shared, blind driveway is extremely steep with a hard right turn onto another steep climb to the front of the garage. We were able to make a 4-6 point turn around to get back down facing forward. There are no window coverings on the bedroom sunporch or either bathroom. There is very inconsistent cell coverage. The only TV is tiny. The 3 balconies are tiny. The pictured bench by the water feature is missing seating slats and is inaccessible because the area is so overgrown. The d/r chairs (and one l/r chair) are very wobbly to the point one collapsed with my husband. Karen explained she occasionally tightens the leg bolts by hand and would do it for us but it would take 3-4 hrs. The smoke and carbon monoxide detectors have unmonitored batteries, giving the responsibilities to residents. No fun getting a ladder in the middle of the night to change batteries-twice! No ice maker! Welcome back to 50's filling ice trays! I hope this gives you a clearer picture than we had!

Location is out of the way, but not so far that shopping would be an inconvenience. We saw a mama and baby deer just outside the kitchen window our first morning, and multiple animals visited during our stay. The owner was EXCELLENT about answering questions and was easy to contact. The kitchen amenities exceeded our expectations - we were able to cook breakfast easily and reheat whatever leftovers we brought in. And having a washer/dryer onsite was a huge help.

Asheville Mountain Rose

This home is located in a very wooded, quiet and private neighborhod. Karen our host was very attentive during our stay and checked in with us several times. She helped me immediately with a request to stay an additional night. The home is very well appointed with two bedrooms and two full baths. We especially enjoyed the wonderful sunroom right off of the living room. The mountain views are beautiful . There is a wood burning fireplace in the living room and a gas fireplace in the master bedroom. It is in a very good location with Asheville just a short drive away.

We really enjoyed staying at Mountain Rose. The location was perfect. It had beautiful views and felt away from it all but was also located minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway and downtown Asheville.

Bright and Inviting

This is a beautiful, cozy home with an amazing view to the area mountains with three decks to choose from! It is also located close to the Blue Ridge Mountain Parkway and to Ingles, a major grocery store chain. Water quality was also amazing (we usually buy a bag of ice, but no need here!) We enjoyed the nearby Creekside Taphouse, "A Neighborhood Joint", for great burgers, fries and trivia! The only drawback to the location is that there was no place we could walk our dog as the neighborhood roads are quite steep (okay for driving, though) and the adjoining highway is a bit too busy with no sidewalk or shoulder. We found the walking paths at the nearby Warren Wilson College campus and the large yard at the Veteran's Hospital a great substitute, however. Wifi was reliable. Neighborhood is quiet. Kitchen is well-stocked. Abundant closet and storage space. Overall, a great home away from home!

Mountain Rose Visit

The property is beautiful. The home, large and comfortable, the gardens natural and lovely. the views are beautiful. The only negative was a general musty smell which was erased when we opened the windows and though the towels were clean, they had a very musty smell .We found the house to be very well equipped and were grateful for the coffee and other basics..

The property was very nice...good location, beautiful view, nice community and clean/well furnished. Our host was great to work with and made us feel very welcome. The only reason I gave 4 stars on two of the ratings was the outside of the property was very overgrown and not as shown in the photos that were used in the listing.

My brother and I spent a week in the Asheville area mountain biking and found the property perfect for our needs. We were within 25 minutes of downtown Asheville and within 90 minutes from a myriad of mountain bike destinations. The garage was perfect for storing bikes and the kitchen was well equipped for meal prep. There is a grocery store within 10 minutes of the house. The property owner was responsive and made the experience of renting very simple. We would rent here again.

Family vacation

Karen was easy to work with always communicating in a polite and timely manner. The place was great for my Wife and me and our Three children ( 4 yr, 2 yr and just under 1 yr old). There was a good amount of space for us to set things up for them and keep hiking stuff and strollers in the garage. We were just a short trip to a grocery store but still felt quite Remote. The kitchen was well supplied allowing us to prepare family meals which we enjoy on vacation. Solid vacation home for families!
