Beautiful Mountain Getaway - All Four Breathtaking Seasons!

Enjoy the enchanting Firefly Cottage at Mistletoe Hill. -- our winter months welcome yet another breathtaking season here in the Blue Ridge Mountains! Nearby waterfalls are tumbling, creeks are rushing, the weather is mild, and Main Street is bustling. Biltmore Estate and the Grove Park Inn are full of seasonsl beauty -- all it needs is YOU here to enjoy it!
It's a PERFECT TIME to come and enjoy this beautiful season and stay at a remarkable cottage.
Majestic tree-lined drive leads to charming storybook cottage in the midst of privately owned "Mistletoe Hill" property just a short drive to downtown Hendersonville, the Biltmore Estate, Pisgah Forest, the Green River (whitewater and tubing), the Tryon International Equestrian Center, Flat Rock Playhouse/NC State Theater, hiking trails, the three county "land of 1000 waterfalls" and the Smoky Mountains!
Ideal for a couple (or friends traveling together), in the former carriage house on a beautiful property setting adjacent to the owners updated historic 1930's home. Designed with all the amenities you could desire for a vacation getaway -- and a spacious, relaxed, mountain-style that the country-squire Lauren himself would approve! On truly beautiful property that was formerly part of the French Chanteloupe estate owned by Count Choseuil from France, via his appointment in Charleston. Your own private deck, a quietly gurgling water garden beside your cottage, a magnificent 350 year oak tree in your back yard -- with your own tree swing waiting for you! And yes, a great firepit. Beautifully decorated and appointed.
And Firefly Cottage is always completely sanitized from top to bottom between guests.

Located approximately 2 miles from the antique shops, galleries, fabulous restaurants and boutiques of delightful downtown Hendersonville -- and a short drive from the cottage to Dupont State Forest, Pisgah Forest and other outdoor attractions.

We love sharing our beautiful guest house and property with others. If you have any questions please feel free to ask us. If we don't know, perhaps Jax, our handsome Old English Sheepdog (think Nana in Peter Pan!) will know!

Great cottage
This property was the perfect size for one or two people. It is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The location was good.I was traveling alone and wanted to do some hiking. The Holmes forest and the Dupont Recreational forest were a short drive away and offered many trails. Owners were very friendly --including their sheep dog, Smokey! Highly recommend.

This is the third time we have enjoyed staying in this cozy cabin. Roger always has the cabin prepared and this time even had it ready a couple hours early. The price is reasonable and the location is convenient to Flatrock and Hendersonville! Thanks again!

This is an exceptional stay just for two! It is on a quiet street and yet about 5 minutes from downtown Hendersonville, for shopping and dining. A great garden center just down the street. The fireflies put on a show each time we have stayed here. It is a favorite stay for us!

My wife and I are in our early 70's and have stayed at many locations mostly hotels when we have traveled. This was by far a much safer, welcoming place to stay at a price very close and in some cases cheaper than some of the local hotels! The hosts are both personable and available if needed. The place itself was like a fancy efficiency with a small but full ktichen, washer and dryer, separate bathroom and a small dining table, desk for work and couch. There was a TV but we never turned it on but was WiFi connected. We are likely returning to the area in June for our 42nd anniversary and if this place is available we will stay there again. The drive to Hendersonville Main St is very short and if you drive the other way you come to Dupont State Recreation Forest and hikes to several waterfalls - a perfect location!
