About this property

Hot Tub! Jarrett Creek Cottage bike/walk to breweries, ice cream, cafes, shops

With 500 feet of robust creek frontage and 700 acres of privately owned land to explore, it is far more than just a place to stay. Within walking/biking distance to downtown Old Fort, it's ideally located between the fun, growing town on one side, and thousands of acres of national forest on the other for horse tours, mountain biking, hiking, fishing and more.

Fabulous cabin. We’ve never seen such a well-stocked kitchen. Everything was set up in a way that made us feel welcome and comfortable. Among other things, we enjoyed the fire pit near the stream and found a wonderful hike nearby. Thank you Ellen for being such a thoughtful host!

Wonderful relaxing get away

This is such a great place to stay when visiting the area. We spent allot of time in Black Mountain and Montreat because my husband went to college there, but might just come back and stay in or around the cabin. Our kids loved the creek and hot tub. We also enjoyed a hike and had friends over to grill. Everything is just right to have a great family weekend.

Perfect family vacation!

The pictures of the cottage does noy do it justice. It is absolutely beautiful! My family enjoyed playing in the creek, lounging in the hot tub, and just sitting on the deck with a cup of coffee listening to the creek. The beds were also comfortable. All the little extras were just amazing. Highly recommend!

5-star stay from top to bottom. Great location, perfect host, awesome house - old farmhouse feel, cozy, but nicely updated and laid out well. Great room and hot tub overlook babbling creek, bank of rhododendron and patio with grill and fire pit. There are lots of nearby hiking/biking trails, shops in Black Mountain and local grocery and taverns. We loved it!

Perfection!

If you're thinking of staying somewhere else in this area don't. This place is absolutely amazing, and so peaceful. Ellen (the host) is the best host I've ever had. She was so helpful and accommodating. I stayed here with my girlfriend and sister and they both absolutely loved it. It borders a bunch of trails and some small towns that are great to visit. Both Hillmans brewery and Whaleys are great. Definitely visit Black Mountain, coolest little mountain town around. We will definitely be back.

Home away from Home

Our host, Ellen, should teach classes on how to host for Vrbo! The whole weekend was perfect because Ellen has literally thought of everything. There was absolutely nothing we needed because she had it all right there. The property is beautiful and the town and surrounding areas were very welcoming. She checked in with us to make sure we got their safely and provided a whole coffee bar and snacks. The house was very clean and the beds were very comfortable! This will be our new home away from home vacation spot. I can’t wait to bring my kids in the fall! Thank you Ellen!

Perfect creekside rental

Jarrett Creek Cottage is delightful. It is beautifully appointed, well equipped, very clean and Ellen, the owner, was very friendly and responsive. We couldn't have asked for more. My 4 children had a blast playing in the creek and exploring the adjacent acreage. If we return to the area, we would absolutely stay there again and highly recommend it for families.

We had an absolute blast at this lovely home. We spent a tremendous amount of time outdoors sitting by the stream, in the hot tub, or by the fire. This house is comfortable, clean, and well stocked.

Summer Vacation

We had a wonderful relaxing stay at Jarret Creek Cottage this week. The property is gorgeous and spotless. The first night there we decided to make a home cooked meal which was ready in a snap as all cooking essentials are there at your disposal. While visiting we went to Asheville to explore, rented a pontoon boat on Lake James and went fishing with the Catawba Angler. In the evening we would sit outside and listen to the creek or relax in the hot tub. It was a wonderfully relaxing trip !
