Perfectly peaceful place

This property is lovely. So peaceful and clean. Everything was just right: the kitchen, the bathroom, the bed, an extra room for suitcases and laundry. Plus little extras that make a place homey. And, convenient to area attractions or just doing nothing.

Relaxation Galore at 3 Cub

My husband and I had a nicevisit at 3 Cub. We were in the area to attend a production of Dirty Dancing at the Flat Rock Playhouse. The location of the cabin was only a short distance to the theater with several restaurants close by. However, while at the cabin we felt we were in the forest. The cabin was spotless and decorated nicely. Everything we needed was there. We enjoyed the wine and other snacks that were provided by the host. The outside area was private and so peaceful. We’ll definitely visit 3 Cub in the future.

Great Location

The Three Cub Cottage was delightful. It was just the right size for two people and we enjoyed sitting on the patio listening to the birds and watching the small wildlife - no bears in sight! The cottage was well appointed and stocked. Loved the red wine the hosts provided. We went to attend the Hendersonville Apple Festival which was enjoyable. The location was great for getting to Asheville and other areas and being able to come back to a quiet and restful abode. Looking forward to another stay!

Cute, cozy cottage

3 cups cottage was perfect for our needs. My husband and I were traveling to see family that is failing. This cottage was a wonderful refuge and base of operations – just perfect for the two of us! Roz was a charming and gracious hostess. She made sure we were checked in easily, and let us know how to reach her if we need anything. The cottage had everything we needed in terms of cooking utensils, as well as extra niceties, like a make-up mirror in the bathroom, and a welcome bottle of wine and snacks. We usually stay with family in the area, but if we ever need a place to stay, this will be our go to!
