About this cottage rental

Built in the 1940's, this cottage was constructed as a Black Mountain College faculty lodging. It is believed to be the only house ever designed by Josef Albers, the famed artist who taught for many years at the school after leaving the Bauhaus in Germany. The cottage has been renovated and added onto over the years with a front porch, rear deck, 4 bedrooms, full kitchen and more. The deck overlooks a private yard next to a stream that quietly babbles on its way to our private lake.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Black Mountain. Lovely, spacious cabin, well stocked and comfortable. A bit of noise and activity, including shooting from the rifle range at the nearby boys summer camp but we still had a great stay.

Rented this beautiful little cottage for family for daughter's nearby wedding. Absolutely charming and peaceful; lovely break from wedding stress. Daughter and bridesmaids were able to get ready for ceremony here as well. They loved the large open great room. Family said beds were all comfortable and they loved the beautiful surroundings. Perfect size to enjoy one another's company without being on top of each other. Very clean, great provisions, close to Asheville and Black Mountain. Overall excellent experience! I will definitely reach out again!

The property, while historic, was well past cabin shabby chic. The property is dilapidated and in need of a full renovation . The photos and price do not give a true representation of the dis-repair. The deck is rotting, baths are falling apart, doors are rotten and let in bugs. It has s potential, but truly should not have been up for rent in its current condition.
