We had a lovely time sitting on the porch and listening to the creek.

Bills house is perfect for family . It`s right on the creek which was a lot of fun. The house has everything you need and is very comfortable.Bill and his wife were very helpful in answering any questions we had and easy to reach.

We loved our time at this cottage. Montreat is a beautiful and peaceful place and this home was perfect for our family. The owners were friendly and very communicative, before, during, and after our stay. We will are looking forward to going back again soon!

We had a wonderful time staying here. Bill and Margie were very responsive to any questions we had. Their home is just as shown in the photos-- very clean, eclectic and tasteful decor, with wonderful outdoor spaces to enjoy. We appreciate how much attention the owners have paid to the details that make their guests feel so at home-- comfortable beds, high quality towels, well-stocked kitchen, etc.

The perfect spot for a family getaway! Super cozy and conveniently located near hiking trails, picnic spots and Black Mountain. Cozy beds, stocked kitchen and awesome outdoor area with creek in the backyard.

We were somewhat familiar with the property, having visited the area many times. The cottage was absolutely perfect for our anniversary trip. Quaint, cozy and convenient to places we like to frequent, we would definitely stay here again. Our hosts were wonderful to work with; very prompt and helpful. All in all, a very good experience!

Such a lovely, welcoming retreat. Truly what you expect in this beautiful, historic gem of an area. This home is cozy and obviously loved by the family who owns it. If you are looking for a great spot to enjoy nature, hikes, a babbling mountain stream in your back yard , a beautiful and huge porch to gather with family and friends, Montreat is a great place to retreat! And you will love this home! We will be back! Thank you

We loved the house and its location. The hosts were immediately responsive to our questions, and everything we could have needed was provided!

The Jones Cottage has been my family’s preferred lodging for at Montreat in the summer almost since it became available more than 15 years ago. The large veranda and the gazebo provide relaxing, outdoor space for conversations, games, and reading, and the indoors are nicely done, with a well stocked kitchen. The cottage is not a fancy, modern place, but it has all a family or group will want for good times together.

My family and I stayed here for the Thanksgiving holiday and it was the peaceful and serene getaway we were seeking. The house is in a quiet neighborhood, and all we could hear were the sounds from the creek in the back. The kitchen was well stocked and had just about everything we needed in the way of utensils and cookware. We enjoyed visiting Black Mountain and Asheville which were both a short drive, as well as walking around Montreat and hiking in the area. Bill was a wonderful host and clear communicator. Other reviewers have commented on the cleanliness and state of the house- we found it to be very clean! It's not in perfect condition, but it is a very old house and not a primary residence. We didn't mind it at all and found it to be a charming and lovely cottage! If we are ever back in the area, we would definitely stay here again!

What a great long weekend my husband and I had at Jones Cottage! All the amenities, but most importantly, a warm and inviting home. Well-stocked kitchen to cook up a fine meal to have with friends or just the two of us. We did both! The furnishings are eclectic with a lot of artwork, ceramics and wood features. The house is lovely. Sunny in the morning and cozy at night. The babbling creek behind the house encourages a good night sleep. The house was very clean, and has all the amenities. A neat neighborhood of old family houses and vacation homes with lots of privacy. We would come back! Asheville about 20 minutes and Black mountain just a 10 minute drive. Our hosts checked in with us to make sure we had what we needed, including a place to fish the following day. Thank you again!

With much appreciation to our thoughtful hosts, we have loved another stay in your wonderful, charming, welcoming home. It's filled with a sense of happy times shared, inside and out, comfortable places to read, picnic and have fun together while Flat Creek rushes by. (A first rate kitchen matters too!) Location is another huge plus: easy walks to the best of Montreat, short drives to the Blue Ridge Parkway or Asheville. It has also, always, been a place of peace and rest for us. We are so grateful.

Drove ten hours & planned since April. Got there, no key. Called owner & had to leave a message. Found the extra key. The house was a mess. Beds were not made & laundry in front of the washer. Dust everywhere & fingerprints all over the dining table. The ceiling in the bathroom upstairs was collapsing. There was a smell of mustiness. Some furniture on the porch had a broken leg & in disrepair. Owner Bill was very rude to start with. He offered to send a cleaning crew in a couple hours but after his nastiness & condition of the property, I ask for a full refund. He said it wasn't his problem when I said where were we supposed to stay for the night. I'm sure this was a wonderful place at one time but it has been grossly neglected. Fortunately, I was able to contact a very nice VRBO owner I had used before. She helped us locate an available home. It was smaller but very nice.

The pictures must have been five years ago because the area around the front of the house was overgrown with weeds. The gutters had trees growing in them,the rocking chair was broken, and the inside of the house had a musty odor. The house has rot and needs some attention

Renting this property was a very easy process.

Wonderful home walking distance to everything in Montreat! Perfect location, great communication with hosts, and a warm, homey feel.

This cottage was a joy to stay at. A relaxing time in the mountains. You can hear the creek in the backyard. A fantastic gazebo to relax under and listen to the rain while reading a book. Kitchen is amply supplied with equipment for preparing meals. Quiet neighborhood. Trees surround you.

Rain or shine this cottage has it all: warmest hospitality must run in the veins of the owners of this lovely, happy place. It has a livable, welcoming spirit with comfort in every room plus a creek rushing along the back that says welcome, come stay, enjoy yourselves. We did and hope to be back soon. Thank you, thank you!!

We chose this house for our first visit to the Asheville area and were not disappointed. We looked at many homes, some with more yards and closer to Asheville, but this was perfect for the mountain vibe we wanted without being too far up in the mountains or feeling secluded. The house is less than a 10 min drive to the small town of Black Mountain which is adorable and has all the stores (i.e. grocery, dining, shopping) you need to make for an enjoyable visit. The home is also very close to Lake Susan and a beautiful playground - perfect for our 2.5 year old. The outdoor space for this home is really what makes it. The gazebo and deck, while in need of a little TLC, is great for sitting outdoors. Outdoor lighting made spending evenings outside enjoyable. The backyard is not large but has enough space for a toddler to run around and burn some energy (under supervision as the creek is very close). The creek also provided amazing background noise! The house worked very well for our group of 6 (4 adults, 2 kids), and provided ample space for our needs. While not our style, the house was well furnished and not cluttered, which made for a great trip! The kitchen is also well stocked with cookware, silverware and spices. The home also had strong WiFi which friends told us is not always common in Montreat. We definitely recommend this home and would stay again, it will not disappoint.

Very nice house with 70s vibe. Very comfortable, clean and well-stocked kitchen. Never turned on the TV, but the bluetooth input adapter on the stereo was nice and functioned well. Porches and backyard will be very nice to use during warmer weather. It was a bit too cold in the mornings and evenings for us to enjoy on this trip, but nice feature of the house.

Such a pleasure staying in this well stocked, beautifully furnished home that didn't feel like a rental. Owners were lovely and very responsive. Visiting in the winter has its own peaceful beauty and with super easy access to the Montreat trails and Lake Susan, it was perfect for what we needed. Best part was hearing the creek. Exactly what we needed for a break from the city life. Thank you!

Close to town; grocery store, shopping, and restaurants. Perfect for a family of 5. Very cozy. Great communication with property manager. Highly recommend.

We had a great time. It was a great location and the owner was very responsive. We will definitely return!

this quaint little cottage was the perfect get away for those who love the mountains!

Perfect getaway spot, cozy home with all the essentials. The hosts were always prompt in responding and making during our stay we had everything we needed. Montreat was a nice little town, and we can’t wait visit again

We absolutely fell in love with this property from the minute we walked through the front door. It is so quaint and cozy and decorated with class and elegance.The cozy bedrooms provided comfy beds for a good night’s sleep.The kitchen was extremely well equipped for cooking and baking as desired.The suggestion from Bill to get firewood before we arrived was so thoughtful. Loved hearing the crackling logs as I read my book. A great surprise was the reading chairs turned into recliners! I really feel like these owners go out of their way to make you as comfortable as possible!Also, if you like to hike, you don’t have to drive anywhere! Hiking is right there!! We lucked out, because we had no idea it was in our backyard!10 stars if I could for this property!

Proximity to the small adorable village of black Mountain was great. The home is roomy and very comfortable. Great outdoor seating areas to listen to the creek and enjoy the weather and fall colors.

We found the perfect place to get away yet still lay low for a much needed Covid break. Loved the house - especially the kitchen. We were able to hike right from the house most days. Lots to do while socially distancing. Great communication with Meg.

The home is perfectly located near the center of Montreat. We enjoyed relaxing on the porch and the sound of the nearby creek. The kitchen is nicely stocked with everything you need so cooking in was very easy.

This rental is in a great location on Flat Creek and for access to the conference center. It has typical rental home issues like an occasional cabinet door that is loose or a board broken on the porch, but is still a nice space in Montreat.

With two college age children, we wanted to capture some great family time together and go see the Biltmore. We were so blessed when we discovered this nearby property. The home is beautiful, well equipped, and located in the quiet community of Montreat! The owners were excellent to work with and communicated with us throughout! Our family highly recommends this property and plan to visit again in the Spring!
