We'd love to welcome you to Blue Fox Cottage, our newly renovated, fox-themed, cozy cottage in the heart of downtown Black Mountain, NC. Just a 5 minute walk to the town center with a wide array of shops, restaurants, and breweries/bars. Come enjoy this fully remodeled 3 bedroom, 1 bath home with an awesome dog-friendly, fenced backyard that includes a bonfire pit, hot tub & barrel sauna.

Good to know

This newly remodeled one-story cottage has an open concept design to maximize the living space for up to 6 guests. With 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, it's 1,000 sq ft is the perfect size for 2 couples with 2-3 kids, or it is a nice cozy fit for 3 couples. Just remember there is only one bathroom (draw straws for who showers first -- ha), but from experience we think 6 close friends can totally make it work comfortably. We are now dog-friendly - yay! We do have a maximum of two well-behaved dogs per stay and there is a flat $150 pet fee if you want to bring your fur-babies. We do ask that dogs stay off the furniture and that you pick up after them in the yard. Our fenced in yard is great for pups to run around and enjoy the fresh mountain air. Don't worry, we provide poo bags, food bowls, and even designated towels for muddy paws. :) Lots of places in Black Mountain are dog-friendly so taking your pups around town can be super fun! Please do be aware that bears roam around frequently in our area so leaving your dog unattended in the backyard is a beary bad idea... sorry, I had to. The home is furnished with memory foam beds. One bedroom has a king sized bed, one has a queen, and the third bedroom has a twin XL over Queen bunk bed. In the swoon-worthy kitchen, you'll find all the silverware, pots, pans and plates you'll need to pretend like you’re going to cook yourself dinner from scratch! ;)(But really, there is no need because the restaurants in our town are top-notch and lots are in walking distance.) The show-stopping quartz countertops overhang the navy blue, soft-close cabinets with gold finishes for bar seating. There is also a small dining table with two chairs that was handmade by a talented North Carolina artisan using walnut that was sourced locally. The top of the line washer and dryer can be found behind the bi-fold doors by the dining table, and laundry detergent is also provided. The living room is furnished with a nice flat-screen tv and super comfy leather couch where you'll be able to Netflix and chill with friends. There is a small marble coffee table, a navy velvet loveseat and a tv console with a built in electric fireplace that gives you all the cozy cottage vibes you could want. Also in the console you'll find a nice stack of books and games (with a few more in the coat closet) in case you want to have a family game night and order in. Since there is only one bathroom, we made sure it would make you say "Wow" with the blue herringbone feature tile wall, concrete-look tile floors, and a mid-century modern style vanity with gold hardware. Oh and did we mention the fabulous rainfall shower head or the overhead fan heater that keeps it nice and toasty in there? Don't forget to head out to the fenced in backyard because it is seriously a ~vibe~ in itself. The brand new stone patio equipped with a wood burning Solo Stove bonfire pit, comfy Adirondack chairs, and sparkly bistro lights is ideal for a relaxed evening at home. All you need is a bag of marshmallows and a bottle of wine and then you could call it heaven. We provide cornhole boards and bags as well as a bocce ball set if you're feeling gamey. We also just added a brand new 6 person HOT TUB and a Barrel SAUNA- woot woot! Enjoy the soothing jetted bubbles under the sparkly bistro lights or sweat it out in the dry sauna heat for the ultimate relaxing mountain getaway. In terms of amenities, we've got you covered too! You'll have access to small, yet important, things like: An iron, hair dryer, towels, shampoo, conditioner, soap, cotton balls, coffee, sugar, tea, firewood, and more. Our little mountain cottage is just so great that you'll probably want to stay forever. :) We've had guests ask. Just kidding. (But seriously.)

This perfect little cottage kept us safe and secure during hurricane Helene, and we are forever grateful. We traveled to Black Mountain for a wedding, not knowing what was in store. We are thankful the home did not sustain any damage or flooding during our stay. Aside from the devastation of the hurricane, we really enjoyed the first day and a half of our stay! The location of the home is perfect and the hosts were very friendly with helpful recommendations. We are heartbroken over the impact of the storm and hope to visit again once the area has recovered to help support these communities get back on their feet.

Fantastic stay! We planned a last minute getaway to Asheville (3 adults and 2 kids). The house was ideal for our needs and very comfortable. We loved the walkability factor and the proximity to Asheville. We absolutely loved our evenings relaxing in the sauna + hot tub after full days of exploring the great outdoors. Would absolutely stay again!
