About this property

Close to Lake Susan & Creek adjoins back yard Stained & painted 2022

Welcome to the Jones Cottage on Kentucky Road; beds will be made upon your arrival. In 1990 the residence was "gutted' and redesigned by a Knoxville architect for both casual and fun living. Air-conditioning was added a few years ago.

In the last few months the cottage has had serious maintenance and repairs including new shingles, entire cottage stained, and trim painted, gazebo roof repaired, and master bedroom and bath painted with some repairs as well and the back porch and balcony rails have been replaced. Looks as good as it did 32 years ago .. in my view.
Located a short walk from The Barn, Lake Susan and the Huckleberry. This residence should be on your "short list" for many reasons, including the beauty of the creek in this back yard! The large deck can host 20 for a meal or is a perfect place for a nap or to cuddle up with a good book. We will let the pictures speak for themselves.
Bedding:
Two bedrooms upstairs with bath

Fantastic and Welcoming Home in Montreat
Bill and Margie's home in Montreat is not only comfortable and beautiful, but it is also a perfect place for a vacation for all ages. The home is in a serene and lovely area in Montreat close to Lake Susan and near enough to Black Mountain to enjoy restaurants and shopping. We enjoyed family time playing games, reading, and cooking in the well-equipped kitchen. Most of all we enjoyed taking in the beauty of the mountains. The house has a wonderful outdoor space as well. Bill and Margie were incredibly welcoming, and we were so appreciative of their hospitality. We highly recommend this lovely home and hosts.

Jones Cottage
My family has enjoyed Montreat annually for what will soon be three decades, and the Jones Cottage has become our place of choice. The location is convenient and delightful with the babbling brook behind the cottage. Its restful living room, the well-equipped kitchen, the spacious veranda and gazebo -- all make for a very pleasant visit that the whole family can enjoy together.

Perfect cottage!
This creekside cottage was the perfect setting for our family vacation. Inside was comfy and cozy, and the porch, yard, and creek gave ample places to enjoy the mountain air. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home!
