Cardinal Cottage 55 Patton Cemetery Road

A cozy mountain setting near Asheville, Black Mountain, and Montreat. At the heart of all the attractions our mountains have to offer: hike, bike, river sports, Biltmore Estate, Asheville events, LEAF and other major festivals. Or just kick back and enjoy our comfortable, cozy setting. This cottage can hold as little as two people or can sleep 6. The back porch is wonderful to enjoy a cup of coffee as the sun comes up through the trees. We welcome you!

Girls get away

This was a perfect fit for my best friend and I to meet up for a week of relaxation and exploring the area. The location made it easy to get to Ashville and Black Mountain and the surrounding areas for our adventures. We loved the back porch for breakfast and cards in the evening.

Perfect for our needs

For our 3 day weekend in Asheville, this property was perfect! Close to a grocery store and a few fun restaurants in the area, and to get to downtown was just a short under 20 minute drive. The property was clean and had all the things we needed. The back yard was a bonus with being fenced in and perfect for the kiddos to run around. It also seemed to be a safe area with wonderful views! If we are coming back in the area we will definitely look up the Cardinal Cottage again. Thanks for the lovely stay!

Very clean, comfortable and well stocked.

Just FYI, the night light in the master bath needs a new bulb. Really enjoyed our stay. Did take the topper off the queen bed. Maybe just replacing the mattress would be a better fix.

Second Great Stay

We stayed at Nancy and Barry's place the first time about 2 years ago and again this past weekend. It was wonderful then and wonderful now. It's a very clean and nicely decorated 3 bedroom unit, with all the necessities. The hosts are very communicative from booking to check-in to check-out. Everything was easy and smooth. It's a great location and a short drive from everything. Highly recommend. I give them an A+ :)

Biltmore trip

This was an Anniversary trip to Biltmore. The home was very clean, comfortable and we enjoyed staying here very much! Wish we could have explored Black Mountain a little more. An interesting town! Thanks so much for opening your lovely home to us! Love Cardinals, too!

Family visit

House is comfy. Our three year old twins grands stayed for a day with us and played. Our oldest grandson spent one night. All in all stay was fine. My grandson did play an outside game they had set up with a ball. He did not put the balls back on the court. My mistake I def should have checked. This was brought to my attention via the host. Not sure that was necessary but ok. Overall nice place to stay.

Adorable, super clean cottage

This cottage is by far the cleanest that I have ever rented. It is convenient to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Asheville, Western NC Nature Center, Sliding Rock, Looking Glass Falls and Mount Mitchell. The owner is so sweet and accommodating!

Swan Cottage

Great location & comfy house. The back deck was wonderful for dinner & relaxing after a day of exploring! The road was pleasant for taking evening strolls & nearby Charles Owen Park was a delightful way to start my mornings! I would stay at this cottage again although I would need a lesson on how to operate the TV & open windows (probably user error!!)!!

Our stay was nice and easy. There was plenty of room to have 5 separate beds with the trundle beds. It was closer to town than I thought it would be, but still in a peaceful setting.

Everything we were promised.

We needed a place to stay close to Black Mountain without paying the Black Mountain prices that had everything we needed. We found it. It was our sons graduation and the last thing we needed was to worry about our stay. Plenty of room for my wife and our 2 adult children. If would sleep probably 6 or 8. It was very clean. Within a 5 minute drive to almost everything. The property had all the supplies we needed and had plenty of additional blankets and pillows. The owners were very polite and responded promptly. Thank you for helping us make ours sons graduation a pleasant one.
