Looking for a beautiful retreat nestled in the mountains or a family 
vacation getaway - you've found it!  

Whispering Creek Cottage located in historic Little Switzerland is 
just off the Blue Ridge Parkway with easy access to Asheville & 
Blowing Rock. A gently winding mountain road will guide your ascent to 
peace and tranquility as you approach this adorable 1915 cottage. 

Whispering Creek Cottage is owned by two artists, who have added their 
own decorative flair to each room. This cozy two bedroom, one bath 
cottage has a large full kitchen/dining area, nice sized living room 
and sleeps four adults comfortably. You will love the heart-of-pine 
floors, the sound of rain on the tin roof, fireplaces in each bedroom, 
large front porch and original artwork throughout. 

Whether sitting on the front porch or napping in the hammock you will 
be lulled by the babbling creek, which runs along side the cottage. 
The kids will have a grand time playing in the creek and with any luck 
will see a salamander or a crawfish hiding beneath the rocks. Summer 
nights bring promises of starlit skies, catching fire flies and 
roasting marshmallows in our outdoor fire pit.

The small towns of Marion at the bottom of the mountain and Spruce 
Pines on the other side of the Blue Ridge Parkway offer plenty of 
choices for grocery shopping or grabbing a bite to eat.

So whether spending your days relaxing at the cottage or enjoying a 
day of adventure in nature ... your stay at Whispering Creek Cottage 
will be one that you will long remember.

Little Switzerland is one of the last true quintessential sleepy 
little mountain towns for relaxation, cool temperatures and clean 
mountain air. Over 100,000 acres in national forest and hundreds of 
miles of trout streams, our area is an outdoors paradise. Hiking, 
horseback riding, hunting and white-water rafting are very popular and 
there are several fine North Carolina golf courses nearby. Several gem 
mines offer the opportunity to pan for gemstones (a rockhound's 
dream!).

The Blue Ridge Parkway, a unit of the National Park System, extends 
the length of our area and provides splendid views around every 
corner. A visitor information center is located at the Museum of North 
Carolina Minerals at Gillespie Gap, Milepost 331. You'll find many 
points of interest around our area. 

At 6,684 feet, Mt. Mitchell is the highest mountain east of the 
Mississippi River, and offers spectacular views, scenic hikes, a 
museum, concession stand and restaurant open seasonally. 

Other attractions in the area or within easy driving distance include 
Crabtree Meadows & Falls, Emerald Village, Dellinger Grist Mill, 
Grassy Creek Falls, Asheville, Biltmore Estate, Lake James State Park, 
Penland School of Crafts, Linville Caverns & Falls, Roan Mountain
