Cottage vacation rentals in Yancey County

The Loverly is truly lovely—you’ll feel at home! With a fireplace, a chaise lounge, a hot tub, and more, it’s the perfect retreat. Plan a shopping day in Hendersonville. The local consignment shop, which supports hospice care, offers great prices. For a meal, check out Shine—known for unique dishes and excellent service. In Fairview, The Local Joint is a must-visit. This old-fashioned diner, owned by a single mom, serves hearty meals that last all day. Their eggs Benedict, with fresh spinach, avocado, and homemade skillet potatoes, is a standout. Watching “CoCo” cook—his energy is unmatched—is an experience! Get there early; we went twice, and it was packed. Consider contributing to The Local Joint’s “pay it forward” option. A $10 donation covers a meal for someone in need. This region of North Carolina was severely impacted by Hurricane Helene. The destruction is heartbreaking, but the community is rebuilding. Many businesses and walking trails remain closed, so keep that in mind.

My partner and I had a lovely stay at this little hideaway in the woods. We were so lucky to find this place after another host had to cancel our reservation just 2 days before our trip. The cabin is positioned at the end of a short street, right by a beautiful walking trail along a creek, which was great for my pup. The space was clean, organized, and well stocked with towels and linens. We especially enjoyed the cozy king bed and the hot tub. The location was very close to some of the local attractions and just a short drive to downtown Ashville. Jay provided detailed information on checking in and out, and even let us check-in a little early. We'd definitely consider staying here again on future trips.

We had a wonderful stay, would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to stay in South Asheville or Arden area!

Just what my husband and I needed. Far enough from town so it was peaceful but still close enough to be able to do stuff. The hot tub was probably my husband’s and I favorite thing lol

This was easily one of my most favorite vacations of all time. The tranquility and the peace that Nancy is beautiful property provided will be a memory that I will always cherish with my kids. Outside of the property, we were fortunate enough to take a pottery lesson with her and my daughter mentioned several times to me how this was one of her favorites experiences with me. In addition, they were kind enough to share an opportunity to hike down to their private land in the gorge gorge for a peaceful and fun Saturday afternoon. What an adventure it was and well worth it. overall, we will definitely be looking at coming back and absolutely be sharing this magical place with friends and family.

We came for a getaway from all the noise in Gatlinburg TN and couldn't be happier with the privacy provided and KILLER HOT TUB! That thing is NICE! Place was very well kept and we felt right at home. We enjoyed a couple local spots for food and gave to say Mars Hill is a very cute little town! Would definitely stay here again and appreciate the very much needed time away in a nice peaceful spot for our anniversary.

It was a great place to stay at, thank you

My husband and I wanted to have a peaceful weekend after attending appointments at the VA hospital close by. This location hit the mark perfectly! Peaceful, simply elegant, and clean with the bonus of nature surrounding us. We enjoyed relaxing evenings looking at the stars from the jacuzzi.

Absolutely adorable place! Gorgeous in the spring. We had a great time and Jayne was super nice and communicative!

probably one of the better Airbnbs I have been to in a very very long time. Not only is the house cute, but the front patio and out door fire pit was just amazing. My wife and I spent the day exploring asheville and the blue ridge park way and would come back to the cozy home. would 100 percent recommend this place to any one coming through.

Bucolic location with three comfortable beds — we especially loved the pasture raised eggs they left for us!

Such an awesome place to stay. The host was very informative and communicated well….very friendly. A cozy little home that had everything I needed. Would definitely stay again.

We had a truly wonderful time here! Mike was the most amazing host, and greeted us when we arrived. We appreciated the welcome bottle of wine, the cozy cottage, and beautiful yard. Most importantly, I forgot my work laptop when I left, and Mike was so understanding and responsive. He arranged for next-day shipping, which put my distraught mind at ease. I’m so grateful for Mike’s hospitality and trustworthiness! We will absolutely stay here again the next time we are in Asheville. Thank you!!

We’ve stayed at a couple of Airbnbs in Asheville and this one was our favorite! The layout of the house was perfect and we loved all of the outdoor spaces. The expansive back porch, huge yard for soccer, and corner hot tub were favorites for the whole family. The beds were so comfortable that we had a hard time getting out of them in the morning. Our bulldog loved the yard, fenced back porch, and wooded area. Jon was so communicative and had wonderful restaurant recommendations. We hope to come back soon for another stay!

Beautiful home—we enjoyed our stay very much. Francis was friendly and so helpful! We brought our son and two furry four legged daughters who loved the grounds! It was actually better than pictures and descriptions. Home was clean, inviting, comfortable. You won’t be disappointed picking this home for a vacation or quick stay We will definitely be back. Thank you for making our getaway so enjoyable and relaxing!!!!

Great location — 10 mins to the Blue Ridge parkway and 10 mins to grocery stores. The space was comfortable and we enjoyed lounging on the patio bed after a hike. Our dog loved the path behind the house too!

Thank you to Tami for letting us book her house for the time we did! It really helped my father out in the aftermath of hurricane Helene. The house is very cute, and has really neat vintage appliances (I love the old fridge!). The area is quiet, the Internet works well, and the house has everything needed for a comfy stay.

Enjoyed this cozy, comfy, and quiet spot for a long weekend away with my D-I-L and grandbaby. Would stay again!

My little family really enjoyed our stay! I love that they kept a lot of the original things that made the cottage what it was. From the doors to the lights to the handles and built ins. It’s very charming! My son lived the court yard while me and my fiancé lived the clawfoot tub!

Can't say enough about my stay and how lovely Sarabeth was. The cottage was truly beautiful (the art work, design, furnishings). Every detail was thought of. It was the perfect getaway in stunning surroundings. Sarabeth and her family were so warm and responsive whenever I had questions. I felt truly welcome. It's a very special place and I can't wait to go back.

the house was nice and clean. and she made us feel at home

Amazing stay - peaceful, clean, spacious, surrounded by nature. Would come back any time!

Super nice and clean. And very private. It's a great getaway!

We loved our time in the mountains at this cabin! Our kids and dogs enjoyed having so much beautiful property to explore!
