We loved our one-week stay. We picked the home in part because of the many positive reviews, and they were all spot-on. The home was very warm and personal, and equipped with all the amenities we needed. WiFi was reliable. The host was very responsive. Montreat was a pleasant walk. Black Mountain has a cozy center with many shops and restaurants and was an easy 5min drive. The home is also well located for various daytrips, including e.g. to Ashville, Chimney Rock, and the Great Smokey Mountains. Highly recommended.

Lovely home with everything we needed! Comfortable beds, kitchen well stocked! Quiet with lovely surroundings! Just perfect for our first trip back to Montreat Music and Worship conference since 1995! Just as inspiring!

We had a wonderful stay and loved the home! The side deck is delightful and a great place for outdoor dining. Be aware the downstairs bath is suitable for elderly persons, but the high bed is not. We would rent here again.

This is a great house in an excellent location in Montreat. The house has great indoor and outdoor living spaces and the property is in excellent condition. It also has a beautiful first floor master bedroom suite which made the house a great choice for our 3 generation family.

The house was in a great location! Convenient to downtown Black Mountain and everywhere in Montreat. It was very clean and had everything needed. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come again. The only reason I gave it less than 5 stars on the listing accuracy was that there was what appeared to be a security camera inside of the house in the den area, which wasn't disclosed in the listing that I noticed while we were there.

Molly came to our rescue when another booking fell through because it was not wheelchair accessible. Her quaint Inglenook Cottage was exactly what our group needed for a quick but restful weekend getaway. The home was very clean and well stocked with basic essentials upon arrival. Molly was easy to work with during booking and completely available for any questions during our stay. I hope we can return to her property in the future!
As for accessibility, the manual wheelchair user in our group had no difficulty navigating the entire main level of the home. The master bed is quite high, but there is a comfortable sleeper sofa in the den that is considerably lower. The bathroom on the main level has an amply wide door, a roll under sink, and grab bars in the tub/shower (no shower seat/bench). There are no grab bars near the toilet, but our group member brought an adaptive over-the-toilet seat to make transferring easier.

Wonderful!
This property is all that is described and more! It was super clean, the kitchen was stocked better than my kitchen at home, the beds were comfy and the towels were fluffy. The house was chock full of family memories that enveloped us. It was wonderful. The owner, Molly, was very accessible for questions and issues. (The only issue was my fault! 😬). She had little informative notes stuck all around the house that left little doubt as to what was what and where. We definitely hope to return one day!

Common Thread - Would Come Again!
Here for a nearby family wedding, our crew consisted of 8 adults and one infant and except for the youngest being, the common thread at the end of our stay was that Molly's place was a gem and each of them could see them coming back to Inglenook again. We made use of all the bedding options and the three bathrooms kept our crew on time. The multiple areas for gathering gave everyone space. The kitchen was well stocked and beds were comfortable. Easy to take strolls from the house down to the park, fish in the creek or hike up Look Out Mountain with options to make a longer hike. We walked into town Saturday morning for the tailgate farmer's market and visited breweries in town. We lunched at the Cuban restaurant's outdoor area in the back. We took advantage of the cool nights and opened windows. A quiet, spacious, well stocked mountain house with no downsides to share.

Perfect choice!
It all began with stellar communication before I even booked. Molly was quickly responsive to answer my questions and was thoughtful and welcoming in all her correspondence.
I was hosting a retreat for 6 other women and the space was perfect. We enjoyed indoor and outdoor spaces, and the kitchen had everything we could have possibly needed.
Best of all was the abundance of parking...FLAT parking! That doesn't happen anywhere in Montreat! Easy to accommodate our 6 vehicles with room to spare. Score!
Doesn't get any better than this. Thank you for a great stay!!!

Everything about our stay at this home was amazing. Molly is extremely responsive and helpful, even sending a note in advance to warn us that the weather was getting cooler. The house itself is incredibly homey, clean, and comfortable, a great place for a group of friends and family to gather.

A perfect place to relax and explore
I had the pleasure of staying at this property with my daughter and granddaughter. I loved the location—especially the access to the fun creek right across the street. It was comfortable and felt like home. I loved all the personal effects that made me wonder about the enormous amount of love and memories that were shared in that place. Thank you for sharing it with us!

Wonderful Family Home
We were very impressed with the cottage and loved seeing the family history and art on display. We felt extremely at home, and it was even more charming in person. The home has expansive outdoor space that was lovely to enjoy with our family this time of year. We would love to come back if we find ourselves visiting Montreat again!

For those who know that Montreat is the perfect mountain retreat destination it’s now met it’s match with the perfect VRBO. You can see that the House is charming, lovely, filled with history and packed with character. What you don’t see is how stepping in makes you feel.

Montreat is a special place, it’s where I went to college, met my husband, took our children on vacation and now my grandchildren and family. We are big hikers so there is plenty to see and do. The little ones spent hours @ the playground and streams ... we’ll be back! Thank you, Molly Brown for a 5 * vacation.

Happy House
The owners have created the perfect Montreat space. It is well-appointed, clean AND homey. There was plenty of outdoor space for children and adults to enjoy. We spent many happy hours around the fire pit and on the porch. We spotted deer daily - idling down the driveway or peeking out of the bushes. The beds were extremely comfortable and the master bedroom was particularly quiet. There is a happy spirit about this house. You can tell it has been well-loved and maintained for generations.
