     Description 


The perfect romantic getaway for two, Blackberry Cottage,
is nestled in a small community at the base of Snowball Mountain.
As you make the drive, while the road follows Reems Creek and
bridges cross it, notice a wonderful feeling of peace and
tranquility coupled with indescribable anticipation. It is a truly
magical setting in which to relax, unwind and breathe in all the
beauty of nature.

Upon your arrival at the cottage you'll delight in perennials,
raspberries, apples, a small stream in back and the cascading
headwaters of Reems Creek across the road. You are just upstream
from trout stocked waters and surrounded by creeks, streams,
waterfalls, mountains and hundreds of acres of wooded preserve.
Some of the best hiking and nature strolls are right outside your
door... waterfalls await in either direction! You are surrounded by
sounds of water, wind and birdsong... yet you're only 10 to 20
minutes from dining, activities and shopping.

Whether using the house as a base for sightseeing, golfing, mountain
activities, shopping in downtown Asheville, or just a place to get
away from the noise and hustle of urban life, Blackberry Cottage is
a charming and enchanting alternative to hotels... a perfect place
to stay while in town looking for property.

As you enter the cottage you’ll sense the love and care I’ve put into
making it a wonderfully cozy, joyful retreat for myself and my
guests. From the warm tan walls, to the inviting hardwood floors and
comfy furnishings, you’ll find lots of reasons to feel welcome here.

Relax with satellite TV and VCR/DVD player with a simple remote...
you’ll find a collection of videos and DVDs for your entertainment.
Or you may decide to just kick back and enjoy music from the varied
selection of CDs. A gas log stove and quiet Hunter ceiling fan
enhance your comfort and enjoyment!

Enjoy morning coffee or a quick lunch, at the convenient breakfast
bar, before exploring the Parkway or heading downtown for a day of
shopping. The bright, cheery kitchen comes fully stocked including
paper products, pots & pans, dishes, utensils, wine & champagne
glasses and a good corkscrew, frosty mugs in the freezer, a
selection of spices, basic condiments, herbal teas, coffee maker &
filters, a toaster, microwave, local phone service & answering
machine, charcoal & supplies for the grill.

A carport off the kitchen provides shade for your car on a warm
summer day... or a place to barbeque during a spring shower... all
the conveniences of home!

The large sunny bedroom, with a romantic atmosphere, features a
spacious closet, vanity table with lighted make-up mirror, a quiet
Hunter ceiling fan, soft lamp lighting and a comfy chair with a
footstool for reading or relaxing. Should you decide to set an alarm
clock, there's one of those too!

Slumber in the plush comfort of your Simmons Beautyrest KING size
bed. Luxurious 400 thread count cotton sheets, a selection of
pillows (soft, firm and contour memory foam) as well as feather soft
blankets and comforters ensure a restful night’s sleep! With open
windows... bask in fresh, cool mountain breezes and creeksong.

Come explore all that Asheville has to offer... from art and fine
dining, the natural beauty of the mountains on the parkway... to the
awe and grandeur of Biltmore Estate. Then return to your cottage
haven to enjoy the peace and tranquility of creeks and waterfalls
just outside your door!
