Asheville Downtown Area Stone & Log Cabin, Fenced & Gated Quarter-Acre, Hot Tub

This magical retreat in a wooded setting has picturesque old world charm reminiscent of an Italian Alpine cottage.

Red Gate Cottage, situated on a knoll in Beaverdam Valley, is a vintage log cabin faced with stone. Semiskilled craftsmen working over decades, using stone and antique brick, produced an effect that makes the cottage resemble an ancient stone house in the Alps. The original log walls inside have been restored and preserved.

The luxury renovation by the Architect/Owner features high pine-faced cathedral ceilings throughout. The river stone fireplace is a focal point where people enjoy gathering to watch TV and movies or to just soak up the relaxing atmosphere. It's a great venue for romantic couples, friends and family groups to celebrate holidays and special occasions.

A hot tub on the stone patio, cradled by massive rock walls, rests under pergola. Beyond, a sunken garden has a fire pit for roasting marshmallows and smores.

From the deck, you can enjoy close mountain views as you dine or sit around a blazing fire in the chiminea. Relax in the hammock, and listen to the sounds of the abundant wild life mingling with those of barnyard animals from nearby farms. Flocks of wild turkeys wander by. Guests recently saw a total of eight black bears (including 4 cubs) during their stay.

Peaceful and quiet, the cottage is within 10 minutes of the center of Asheville. The scenic Beaverdam Valley meanders past the country club golf course en route to the spectacular high mountains of the Blue Ridge Parkway – where you can enjoy hiking, mountain biking and scenic drives. Yet the fantastic restaurants and night life of Asheville are only a few minutes away. The Gove Park Inn is nearby, and the University of NC is just minutes away. Black Mountain is within 30 minutes, and Lake Lure, Chimney Rock Park and Wolf Laurel Ski Resort are all within 45 minutes. Mt. Mitchell, highest mountain in the Eastern U.S., is an hour’s drive up the Blue Ridge Parkway.

At Red Gate Cottage, you can enjoy both town and country, truly the best of both worlds. So bring the children, bring the dog. Here, you can get away from it all (but still stay in touch with high speed wireless internet).

Georgia was a wonderful host who thought of everything a guest would need during their stay. Location is very convenient.

We had a really nice stay at the Red Gate Cottage. Georgia was an amazing host. The fenced property was a nice feature to ensure the safety of our fur kids. Very charming house with a lot of character. The deck was awesome for morning coffee or an afternoon drink. Close to town, but feels remote.

Visiting our son for Christmas was a joy. His new puppy loved the fenced in yard for playtime. We found the kitchen well-equipped for some family meals. The cabin atmosphere was cozy and wonderful.

This house and the owner are wonderful! This is our third time back and we will plan to come again. The house is cozy and inviting. The fenced in yard is wonderful for our dogs. Georgia is a fabulous host! It was snowing the day of our arrival and when we arrived she had come over to make sure ice melt and snow shovels were out in case and left us cookies on the counter. This is a wonderful property with a personal and attentive host. We love it and will be back again!

This cottage is in a great location. Only about ten minutes from downtown. Close to great bakeries and restaurants but also out enough that you get a more quiet experience.

The outdoor space is excellent, and it’s located close to town with the benefit of seclusion. Everything was as advertised with friendly communication leading up to check-in. Great experience!

Very quaint and comfortable! Host could not have been more accommodating. Even though most of Asheville was shut down, we didn’t mind hanging around the fire pit and sitting on the porch admiring the leaves! Thank you for sharing your delicious cookie recipe. 😂😂

Quick 4 day getaway. The house is amazing, close to everything Asheville yet private and peaceful. Hot tub was perfect and the Mountain View’s were more than we expected.

We had a great time at the cottage. Close to downtown, beautiful house and yard. All necessities were available. Great for kids!

We had an amazing time and really enjoyed the location. It was close to downtown, but just far enough away to feel secluded. We brought our pups and they loved the huge yard. Just note if you have bigger sneakier pups like mine, there are hard to get to gaps in the fence. Overall great stay. Would definitely stay here again.

The perfect getaway! Georgia's Red Gate Cottage in Asheville was the perfect summer getaway for our family. Great secluded location that offered plenty of privacy, but it was still easy to get downtown when we wanted to head that way. The house provided everything we needed to have a great time, and Georgia was quick to respond to any questions that we had. Could not recommend this place enough!

The house was clean and cozy. Georgia went out of her way to welcome us with a personalized note and some freshly baked cookies. Directions were clear, the house and hot tub were clean, and the location was great. We enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.

We loved every minute of our stay, especially seeing the beautiful cottage decorated for the holidays upon our arrival. Our host was wonderful from the day we booked our stay and was available for any questions we had. Our cottage was cozy with all amenities needed and close to all attractions, grocery stores and restaurants while so peaceful and quiet. We absolutely loved this sweet place.

We had 2 small children and 4 adults and the weather was occasionally chilly, i.e. it was a little cramped when the deck was not used. The facilities were very nice - everything or more than asked for.
