The Cottage

Fiddle Creek is a cozy studio-style cottage tucked into old-growth forest and surrounded by conservation land. It has everything you need to be comfy: a well-stocked kitchenette, plush king size bed, clawfoot bathtub/shower, and a private covered porch with a hammock and rocking chairs to take it all in! Built beside a seasonal mountain brook, Fiddle Creek has its own yard for relaxing and spending time together. You'll love the creekside picnic/grill area, Adirondack chairs, and small meditation deck overlooking the brook. Fiddle Creek is perfect for up to 3 guests who love being outdoors and making memories in the mountains.

At 4,000 feet of elevation, Fiddle Creek offers sweeping views of the Blue Ridge mountains, dramatic mountain weather, and endless wilderness to explore. The property features a shared bonfire area and many peaceful spots to take in the pristine nature. Hiking trails on the property are being restored and will soon lead to two waterfalls.

Our land is a true wildlife sanctuary, connecting to nearby treasures such as Montreat, Mount Mitchell State Park, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and Pisgah National Forest. Fiddle Creek lies within the Audubon Society’s Black and Craggy Mountains Important Bird Area, home to more than 90 bird species and recognized as one of the most significant natural communities in the southern Appalachians. You are out in the sticks, yet just 15-20 minutes from downtown Black Mountain, NC, where great restaurants, local shops, galleries, music, and outdoor adventure await.

Fiddle Creek is one of fourteen cottages at the Black Mountain Stomping Grounds—a private 24-acre mountaintop campus created for exploring, healing, and making memories. The Stomping Grounds is the future home of Mountain Man Physical Therapy, a retreat-style center for treatment, workshops, gatherings, concerts, and more.
