By the Creek | Charming Cottage on a Creek

By the Creek is the perfect home for a relaxing getaway. This charming cottage offers privacy and tranquility, but is only an hour from Asheville for dining and shopping. Let the sounds of nature take your stress away as you relax on one of the two covered decks. You will feel like you're in your private oasis overlooking the 1,000 feet of stream that flow by the property.

The updated kitchen and open living room are perfect for gathering with friends and family. Enjoy the gas fireplace in the cooler months or open the sliding doors to the deck and relax to the sound of the stream in the spring and summer. The cozy main bedroom has a large walk-in closet and direct deck access. Downstairs there are two more guest rooms with a queen size bed and a full size. The downstairs living room is perfect for game or movie nights.

So, pour yourself a drink, have a seat on the deck, put your feet up and let the burbling song of the mountain stream carry your stress away, leaving the perfect tranquility of a pampering mountain cottage.
