About this house rental

Twin Willows is a private 14-acre mountain estate in Mars Hill, North Carolina, offering exclusive overnight use of three separate guest homes in a peaceful, scenic setting. During winter months, the estate is conveniently located just two exits south of Hatley Pointe, which offers downhill skiing and family-friendly snow tubing. With ample space, privacy, and comfort, Twin Willows serves as an ideal home base for winter gatherings, ski weekends, and seasonal mountain getaways.

Designed for groups who value space and togetherness, the overnight rental includes three distinct accommodations: Stines House, a spacious historic home ideal for large families and reunions; The Stable, a beautifully renovated barn home with rustic character and scenic views; and Cascade Cottage, a fully ADA-compliant, stand-alone cottage offering accessible comfort. Renting the estate provides exclusive access to all three homes, allowing guests to stay close while enjoying private, separate spaces.

After a day of mountain activities, guests return to a warm, relaxed environment with multiple gathering areas, comfortable sleeping accommodations, and room to spread out across the residential portion of the estate. Twin Willows is well suited for family celebrations, retreats, and group stays throughout the year.

Property Layout & Guest Access

Guests have exclusive use of all three guest homes along with access to residential outdoor areas directly associated with the homes, including walking paths, fire pits, lawns, and gathering spaces. Each home features its own living areas, kitchens or kitchenettes, bedrooms, and bathrooms, offering flexibility for a wide range of group needs.

Estate Layout & Proximity

The three homes are thoughtfully positioned to balance proximity and privacy. Cascade Cottage is connected to Stines House by a covered walkway, and some outdoor areas may be visible between homes. Quiet hours are observed across the estate, maintaining a relaxed, residential atmosphere.

Designated dining and event areas are located near the entrance of the property and are intentionally separated from the overnight guest homes. These spaces operate independently and are not included with the overnight rental.

Interaction with Guests

Self check-in is provided for convenience. We are available by message if assistance is needed while respecting guest privacy. Staff may be present near the entrance of the property during seasonal food service hours or scheduled events.

Beautiful property. Exactly as described. The kitchen/living room (open floor plan) was perfect for our group of veterans.

Joe was a great host. When I asked where we could buy firewood for the fire pit he offered to deliver some which was great because it's at the top of a hill. He even set the fire up for us (unfortunately we ended up not having time to use it). He made sure we had everything we needed. We used the property for a professional development weekend and it worked out great. The "chapel" is actually usually setup as a dining area and is very cute. It was a great space for a couple of our activities which we weren't expecting. The property is as pictured, although it might be helpful to know in advance that one of the double beds can only be accessed by going through another bedroom. Also, the room with the day bed and the room with the 2 twin/trundle beds are rooms that lead to other bedrooms. I was in the area 6 months before our event and he let me tour the property so I had plenty of notice and was able to work around it. This wouldn't matter as much if it were a family gathering.
