Just like home

This was the most thoughtfully, generously well-stocked place we've ever stayed! They seemed to have thought of everything a guest might need, plus so many charming, homey touches. It was a gorgeous drive to Chimney Rock State Park and Lure Lake, which were the highlights of our trip.

Great Spot

My wife and I are happy to recommend Jame's place to anyone. Clean, organized, quiet, landscaped beautifully on a long and winding road which is but a hope skip and a jump to Asheville. There's an Ingles for groceries nearby, if you need one, restaurants, gas, there's even a quiet little tavern up the road a bit if that's your thing. Friendly people there. Lastly, we had the place all to ourselves, felt like we owned the place. For me personally, that's a nice bit of freedom. Trust is well-placed here. Best, John.

Wonderful stay. Great communication. Lacks nothing.

James and Sylvia did a great job making us feel welcomed and comfortable. Super communicators. So many special touches with a bottle of wine, basket of snacks, plenty of coffee and tea. Every room is like a step back in time. So much to see it's like a mini museum. The bathrooms are adorable. Beds were comfortable. Everything work perfect. Super clean. Our group was 4 retired friends. The location really was perfect for us. Quiet and close to fun hikes. Chimney Rock and Hickory Gap Nut Falls are a must. Bearwallow hike was fantastic too with the cows roaming at the top. Lake Lure Flowering Bridge was a nice place to walk. Folk Art Museum on the Blue Ridge Pkwy very cool. The cute town of Black Mountain was a neat little town to stroll around in. Beautiful place. Great stay and trip.

We stayed at Stone Cottage for our daughters wedding and it proved beyond our expectations. We did not expect to have access to so many amenities and greatly appreciated the thorough notes/explanations on how to operate the appliances etc. The cottage was so warm and comfortable, we would definitely recommend a stay there!

Wonderful Cozy Cottage

We absolutely loved our stay. The cottage is lovely and feels like home. The hosts thought of everything and even more to make our stay enjoyable, like extra blankets and even a picnic basket! Super clean. Complimentary wine, snacks, coffee, tea, water bottles. Full kitchen with extras like condiments, spices, etc. grill for outdoor cooking. Plenty of games, puzzles, books and wifi with smart tv. Beautiful views. I highly recommend.

Absolutely perfect

I appreciate you all so very much. We rent a lot of places and this experience was top 5 ever, easily. Other than a trip to the grocery store, we wanted for absolutely NOTHING and it's rare to find a rental that is top-notch stocked and prepared to pamper a guest. The property is great and even though there's a couple more houses around, it's private and quiet. The rock house itself is so very cool and homely and the amenities are plentiful! It's perfect because it's very close to Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, Asheville and Hendersonville--LOTS to do and see. Thanks again--I'm bookmarking this place for future adventures.

Mom's Birthday

We loved staying in this little cottage. We had the fireplace on each evening, and snuggled in the warm, cozy living room reading, and spending time talking. We went down into town to see the Biltmore, and have dinner at an Italian restaurant, but really just enjoyed being together in the cottage. It's quirky, and sweet.
