About this house rental

The Willow Cottage is currently one of only two beautiful completed cottages in this development. Be sure to follow us on Instagram and Facebook: The Cottages at Cold Mountain and @coldmountainvacations

Just take a look at the pictures...the cottage was designed by renowned architect Keith Summerour and the idea was to take the very finest elements of luxury homebuilding and scale them down to an enjoyable, sensible size of 2300 feet. In the indoors, we wanted guests to be able to enjoy the very best materials, craftsmanship and design--understated elegance. The exterior features locally harvested stone, cedar siding, and unbelievable Ludowici clay tile roofing. Guests will feel at once that they are stepping back in time to an era when craftsmanship and materials still mattered, and stepping forward into the future with a home heated & cooled with underground geothermal wells.

The kitchen, dining and living areas are fully integrated with an all-stone terrace complete with wood burning fireplace and antique timber-framed porch. The kitchen features plaster walls, beautiful views, a Wolf range, two Subzero refrigerators and beautiful soapstone countertops and custom cabinets.

The Willow Cottage is currently one of two completed cottages located within the private, gated community. The cottage is located in the heart of the meadow area of Cold Mountain and is within 100 feet of a historic dairy barn (no animals today) and a catfish pond bordered by willow trees. A fun activity lot for soccer, volleyball or chasing fireflies is 10 feet away. An apple orchard, small vineyard and raspberry and blackberry patches line the drive to the cottage. Great for the morning's cereal!

You will need to carefully consider the town that is close by. If you haven't discovered Waynesville, do yourself a favor and check it out. Recently, the L.A. Times called Waynesville 'the perfect blend of mountain charm and sophistication.' Art galleries, tailgate markets, incredible wine store (Wineseller) just 20 minutes away. Want to take advantage of something in Asheville--35 minutes away. We love Asheville too, but the truth is it is a city, which is what we believe a lot of people are seeking to escape. Stay in the country, use Waynesville as your anchor town and cherry-pick the best of Asheville's offerings. Now, you are 35 minutes away from Asheville and 20 minutes from Waynesville, but that gives you the payoff of a spectacularly beautiful, riverfront setting. Plus, you are in the direction of something...Pisgah National Forest begins just 5 minutes south of the property and leads you into some of the most beautiful and iconic places in the Eastern US--Sliding Rock, Mount Pisgah Inn, Looking Glass Falls and many more are within 20 minutes for a truly unlimited amount of recreational potential. Finally, Springdale Golf Club (18 holes) is directly across the street for any family members keep a swing sharp.

We built and furnished the Willow Cottage because we were generally disappointed with the quality of both the homes and properties available for vacation rental. Thank you for taking a moment to consider us. We look forward to hearing from you. We regret that the covenants of Cold Mountain do not permit weddings.

The cottage was in a very lovely, quiet location at Cold Mountain. Very clean and neatly kept. The property manager answered all our questions right away. Gratefully, we only had to bother her the first night. Upon arrival, there were fresh eggs from their farm waiting for us! It is a gated area with many places to walk the property, go fishing, or just sit and read a book. We didn't want to leave and can't wait to go back!

We were looking for a place to spend some time with our son and his wife from Colorado. He requested a wood burning fireplace. The house was beautiful and perfect for our needs - visiting, playing games and enjoying each other's company. The only problem we had was when we lost water one evening and didn't get it back until the next day around noon. After buying gallons of water for necessities, we continued to visit, play games and enjoy the fire. We had a great time and we were compensated for that loss of water.

My family and I just returned from a week at Willow Cottage and enjoyed an exceptionally lovely and colorful fall. We had previously stayed on the property and find it convenient for the things we want to do in the area, while being very much rural and private.
