Woodland Retreat - 15 min to DT Asheville

Escape the hustle of life and join us at Spring Banks Cottage, a serene woodland retreat nestled among 9 acres of forested land.

The Spring Banks Cottage is situated next to a tranquil stream that you can hear from the cozy screened-in porch. The other 8+ acres are surrounded by the Newfound Creek, perfect for a quick morning jaunt to properly kick off your day.

This charming cottage offers a peaceful getaway just 15 minutes from downtown Asheville and 20 minutes to the quaint town of Weaverville. When staying at the cottage, you will have the convenience of exploring the nearby city, hiking the neighboring mountains, playing on the French Broad River, or opting to stay in and enjoy the leisurely rhythm of the property and its surroundings.

With its secluded location and picturesque surroundings, Spring Banks Cottage promises a rejuvenating escape for nature lovers and city dwellers alike.
