Historic Cottage - Near Grove Park Inn - Private Garden and Covered Swing

Just 1.3 miles from downtown Asheville and a five-minute walk to the historic Grove Park Inn, this thoughtfully restored 1913 cottage blends timeless architecture with modern comfort. Set in a quiet, park-like landscape, the home offers a rare combination of privacy and proximity.

A private deck overlooks a dramatic 12-foot waterfall, creating a serene backdrop for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. Inside, period details are preserved alongside updated amenities, including hotel-quality linens, luxury bath toiletries, and a 4K Amazon Fire TV loaded with Prime and Netflix. A complimentary bottle of wine greets you on arrival.

Cottage features compact functional kitchen with sink, dishwasher, induction stove top, microwave and toaster oven. Guest access to laundry provided.

Tucked behind the cottage, a secluded garden features a covered swing adds a cozy touch, perfect for unwinding in the cool mountain air.

With a dedicated one-car parking pad and just 14 steps to the entrance, the cottage is both accessible and hidden away. Whether you're seeking a romantic retreat or a peaceful solo escape, this quiet sanctuary delivers comfort, beauty, and an unbeatable location in the heart of Asheville.

Wonderful weekend getaway

We loved the property! It was perfect - welcoming the moment you unlocked the door. The hosts have provided comforts that you find in high end hotels - towels and bedding are amazing along with the goat milk toiletries (my favorite brand) Beautiful neighborhood and surroundings with roses and a water feature. It was one of the best places we have ever stayed.

Beautiful & Cozy Cottage

We were so comfortable in the cottage. It was beautifully decorated as well. We could walk to the Grove Park Inn and it was a short ride to downtown as well as to grocery stores. Getting to the Biltmore was also a very easy drive. The neighborhood is quiet, beautiful and historic. It was a perfect place for my husband and I.

Grove Park

We had a great weekend at this place. The inside was clean and neat and the bed was very comfortable. But the outside could use some cleaning up. Parking is very tight unless you drive a small vehicle. Also it is within walking distance of the Omni Grove Park inn.

I chose this place because of the Zen it portrayed. Everything about this place was beautiful. Perfect for a couple. The waterfall sold me but the beauty of the place inside and out. Everything we did was with in 10 minutes of this place and it has Everything! Owner's were communicable and also helped me with finding a place to hike!

Excellent get away spot in Asheville

Enjoyed my stay there for a weekend in October. The welcome email with all the details was excellent. The location, parking spot, and the in home binder with details on the area and appliances was a nice touch. The owner was very quick to respond to a question that I had. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for an upcoming trip to Asheville.

Lovely first visit to Asheville

We wanted to see the art galleries in Asheville and the Chihuly glass exhibit at the Biltmore Estate, but didn’t want to stay there (as friends had). This beautifully renovated cottage sits uphill from the owner’s home next to the entrance of the Grove Park Inn in a very nice older neighborhood. Very comfortable for the two of us. Highly recommended!

Serenity

Three Bears Cottage was the perfect little piece of paradise for my anniversary get away. I grew up not far from Asheville but has never had the time to enjoy discovering all the fantastic eateries. We were in a perfect location that seemed to be only a few miles away from everything and Grove Park Inn was on the same street. We will be back!

Beautifully Decorated | Awesome Location

What a beautiful 1 bedroom cottage. We were able to walk to the Grove Park Inn for a wedding. Came and went into downtown Asheville several times. Three Bears (we saw 1 on the way to GPI) had everything we needed for our stay. Great selection of teas! Your parking spot is up some steps, but it was not an issue for us. Would stay here again for sure!
