This adorable cottage is tucked within a quiet neighborhood near Lake Tomahawk, the Black Mtn. Golf Course, and the restaurants and shops in the beloved town of Black Mountain. Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee on the outside patio alongside the trees, getting cozy by the fire pit during those cool evenings, or spending a night in watching the Smart TV with internet streaming (Hulu Live TV) by the electric fireplace in the living room, you will feel completely at ease in this inviting mountain nook. This home is in a premier location, situated near many hiking trails and other spots to take in the gorgeous views of the mountains and nearby lake. Not to mention, you're only 20 short minutes away from downtown Asheville and the Biltmore Estate! With this home, you'll be just outside the hustle and bustle of the city while still benefiting from all the city has to offer.

We are thinking about next summer! Wonderful location. Quiet and we could walk to town.

My husband and I escaped the hot/humid Florida weather for some cooler temps in the NC mtns. This was our first trip to Black Mountain and won't be our last! Whispering Pines will be our new "go to" place to stay as it had everything we needed and then some. So clean and well appointed with just the perfect amount of space. Although we didn't use the grill, we did enjoy late afternoon happy hours on the outdoor deck. Even with neighbors, it was so peaceful and quiet. Greybeard went over and beyond with welcome amenities and helpful information for us which we appreciated so much. We can't wait to come back!

Manager's Response

Thank you so much for your glowing 5-star review, Ellen! We're delighted you and your husband had a peaceful getaway at Whispering Pines and enjoyed your first trip to Black Mountain. We're also thrilled to hear that our team at Greybeard went above and beyond to make you feel welcome and provide helpful area information. We're honored to be your new "go-to" place to stay, and we're excited to welcome you back soon—perhaps for a fall getaway to see the color-changing leaves!

nice area for walking, both Lake Tomahawk and the downtown. Should have brought golf clubs for a quick round at the course by the Lake... great food in town!

Manager's Response

Thanks so much Jeff. You chose a great location! We do hope you'll return again soon and bring your golf clubs next time!

Great cozy cottage for two!

Overall

Whispering Pines was perfect for our work/play week in Black Mountain. It was very clean and had everything we needed. It was quietly tucked away, but also in walking distance to Lake Tomahawk and the golf course. And a short drive to downtown Black Mountain. We loved the patio for our morning coffee. Greybeard was wonderful to deal with and check on us every step of the way. They made everything easy!

Manager's Response

Susan, we're delighted you had a fantastic and cozy getaway at Whispering Pines and enjoyed the quiet yet convenient location close to Lake Tomahawk and downtown Black Mountain. We're also pleased to hear that the Greybeard team helped provide you with a stress-free experience. We can't thank you enough for your review, and we hope you'll stay with us again when traveling to the area!

Pines Perfection

Overall

This is the second year in a row my husband and I stayed at Whispering Pines in October. There was a reason we chose it again…it’s perfect for a fall getaway for 2. We love the location! It was a 5 minute walk to Lake Tomahawk Park and a 10 minute walk into Black Mountain. I seriously could have spent the entire time walking around the park and been completely happy! Fortunately for my husband, he was able to tear me away from the park for some spectacular day trips. A lovely surprise just up the road from the cabin was Montreat. Everything about the trip exceeded our expectations. We hope to return again next year! Thank you for recommending such a perfect place among the pines!

Manager's Response

We're so thrilled that you and your husband had another amazing stay at Whispering Pines, Jill! We appreciate you sharing your kind feedback with us and fellow travelers considering this home for their mountain vacations, and we look forward to welcoming you back next year.

Lovely little house in a lovely little town

Overall

This was a great size for a couple. Very clean and comfortable. Although in a neighborhood, it was quiet. Short walk to Lake Tomahawk. Not quite walkable to downtown (no shoulder/sidewalks), but a quick drive. Easy drive to Montreat, Lake Lure, and Asheville. And Greybeard Rentals was nice to work with. (bring your own coffee filters with your coffee, and a wine/champagne stopper :-) )

Manager's Response

Excellent! Thank you for the feedback. I'm so glad you had a nice time.

Everything! My husband and I loved that it was a short walk to Lake Tomahawk Park. We walked there every morning after our coffee. The main business district of Black Mountain was only about a 20 minute walk and we loved that too.

The chipmonks and squirrels were a hoot! WP was very peaceful & relaxing - just what we needed. We enjoyed walking around the lake & the sitting area outside WP.
Always enjoy Black Mtn, Montreat & Ashville.
Wifi & the TV were iffy - mostly didn't work while we were there. Not a huge deal, but we did want to watch the Canes game. We appreciated the amenities, however, we did bring our own bath& kitchen supplies & towels, pillows,TP, paper towels and trash bags. We also disinfected prior to leaving.

Had a fantastic time at this home in Black Mountain. It was a great getaway for my girlfriend and I. The perfect size for the two of us and had a porch and grill. It was also a short drive to downtown Asheville.

Walking distance to Tomahawk Lake this cottage is in a friendly community, with the lake, golf course, croquet, tennis & walking trails all within a couple blocks. We saw several birds while sitting on the front deck, a very quiet and enjoyable location. All the comforts you could want.

Cottage was wonderfully comfortable. Nice location near town and neighbors but with quiet, peaceful setting. So happy to be able to cook fully, and do laundry. Especially during pandemic times!

We had a great time on this long weekend trip!

Great little house for 1-2 people. Hosts are super responsive and easy to deal with. Convenient to Black Mountain (5-7 minute drive) and Asheville (15-20 minute drive). Clean, spacious, great internet, outside porch, close to golf course. Plenty of silverware and plates, clean fridge.
