Monica D. Jun 6, 2025 07:42:16 AM
Summary: This is a perfect time capsule from the early days of Montreat... Cozy, convenient, an excellent launch pad for family adventures, and a resting spot after hikes and creek hopping. The hosts are great about communicating.
Carter H. Apr 21, 2025 11:49:17 PM
Summary: We had an amazing stay here for Easter weekend! The location is fantastic, walking distance to Robert Lake Park and the Moore Center. Weather could not have been more perfect, we always love a trip to Montreat!
Katherine R. Jul 24, 2024 05:03:35 AM

Ashley L. Jul 20, 2024 02:31:37 AM
Summary: Cute little cottage with lots of outdoor activities within walking distance. Parks, trails, creek. Shirt drive to Black Mountain or Asheville.
Benjamin F. Jul 16, 2024 01:44:11 AM
Summary: We had a great week, comfortable, and in perfect location for hikes and close to Black Mountain. Host was responsive, swift helpful.
Sarah G. Jun 13, 2024 02:55:58 AM
Summary: There was so much to learn in the history of this home! It sits right on the walking trail in Montreat with the creek across the road. The soothing sound of running water can be heard from the two porch/decks where we spent a lot of time. This charming cottage had us imagining what life was like there 100 years ago. Eight of us fit comfortably, though for a stay longer than 2 nights we would have needed more than one shower! The kitchen had everything we needed, too.
Cathryne C. Jun 10, 2024 04:43:07 AM
Summary: This trip brought my extended family together at Montreat for the first time since 2007. The location of the house was perfect; so very close to the Moore Center and right across from creek access. We could not keep our 11 year olds out of the water! The plumbing gave us some trouble at first but the host immediately responded and fixed it quickly. I'm certain it was an unusal issue, especially as no other reviewer mentions such an issue. So, no need to worry. Even if there is a problem, you will have an extremely responsive host.

Summary: Location was great for youth conference and “clubs”. House was very clean and spacious!!
