Situated in Woodfin, this charming cottage for $258 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. SWEET RENOVATED 1945 FARMHOUSE Not too long ago, our sweet Little Yellow Cottage was a diamond in the rough. It had been in disrepair for decades, with bowed walls, broken cabinets, and old carpeting. But when we saw the sunlit rooms and lifted the old carpet to find beautiful aged oak and pine floors, we knew that with a lot of love, creativity, and elbow grease (and a bit of cash) she would shine again and become the beautiful Cottage we knew she could be. --------------------------------- NOTE: Please take your time and read our listing thoroughly - it's packed with helpful information. Most of your questions will be answered here. Once you book, I will send you a PDF of our very-informative "Welcome Book" - it's full with great info about "Yellow", the area, local restaurants, grocery stores, hiking trails, etc. (There's also a printed copy at the cottage for your reference during your stay.) --------------------------------- Our sweet Little Yellow Cottage is situated on a large private park-like yard with shade trees, a large fire pit area with plenty of seating, and a big yard for the kids to have a game of kick ball. The new covered porch with romantic lighting, new HVAC, vintage farm-style decor, beautiful new bathroom, lighting and fans, refinished floors, new laundry room with new washer and dryer, and all new furnishings, make the Cottage feel beautiful, new and clean. From the oak kitchen counters we created from antique truck beds to the refinished oak and pine floors, Tom and I worked hard to bring our vision to life so our guests could enjoy this little gem of Asheville. It's owner-managed and we take pride in doing all the little things to make your stay an amazing experience... a Welcome Gift, treats for your pup if you should bring them along, and more. There's a level driveway for easy parking – rare for these parts. Near Asheville and many local attractions, or comfortable to enjoy just staying in. LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! Our Cottage is approximately 15 minutes to the city, another 10 to the entrance of the Biltmore Estate, and about 20 minutes total to just about any wonderful hiking trail and attractions in the Asheville area. About as close as you can get and still have a whole-house rental! Perfect! CLEAN This property is Fresh & Clean! Our Cottage is professionally cleaned thoroughly and thoughtfully after each stay with no same-day turns. So, if you're looking for someplace beautiful, comfortable, CLEAN, and private to get away from the hustle and bustle... you found it! BEDS There's comfy beds for 4, but if you'd like to bring your own air mattress and bedding, there's plenty of floor space in the living room to sleep 2 more. SWEET BATHROOM Did I mention the beautiful new bathroom? Just cast your eyes on those photos! It’s a beautiful all-new space with toilet (of course) and pedestal sink, large antique mirror, frameless shower door, spacious shower with built-in seat, and shiplap ceiling. DRIVEWAY Unlike many other properties in the area, our wide level driveway is easy for navigation and parking. Inclement weather is rarely an issue. That's a reassuring feature if you've ever tried driving up a steep WNC driveway in one of our winter snowstorms! SUPPLIES Stocked to get you started... paper towels, tp, coffee, sugar, soaps, and more. If you need more, grocery stores are minutes away. WELCOME GIFT I love to offer a Welcome Gift for staying at our Little Yellow Cottage – an assortment of delicious trail mix packets will be waiting for you in the Welcome area. They're great for a quick snack upon arrival, or to take along for a hike. Enjoy! For those of you bringing your pup, we leave a few doggy treats, a set of bowls in case you forget yours, and a doggy bed so they're just as comfortable as you are. STAY "HOME" If you'd like to stay cozied up in your beautiful secluded getaway, grab a sweet tea and enjoy the mountain breezes on the covered porch. Or maybe make s’mores around the big ol’ fire pit while enjoying the laughter of friends and family. Want to keep it simple… relax in the living room with a good book or watch a movie on the 60” smart TV with cable channels – bring your Netflix login! EXPLORE Feeling the need to get out a bit? Visit the nearby grounds and gardens of the magnificent Biltmore Estate, drive the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway, or hike to one of the area's magnificent waterfalls. So much to do, or nothing at all. The choice is yours! It's a short drive to Asheville and many local adventures and attractions, but comfortable to enjoy just staying in and relaxing. Use the House as home base while you ski Wolf Ridge Ski Resort, hike off the Blue Ridge Parkway, kayak the French Broad, tube the Green, tour the Biltmore Estate, sample the local shops, restaurants and breweries... whatever makes you smile! ************************* An important note: Even though it’s a rare, in this uncertain time of extreme weather and illnesses a guest may need to cancel shortly before they check in.
