My wife and I spent a month at Cate's cottage, and we enjoyed our stay. While we weren't able to try some of the restaurants due to COVID-19 shutdowns, the cottage is in a great location in a very walk-friendly area.
We seemed to have a "curse of the heat appliances" during our stay (the heater and hair dryer weren't working on our arrival, and the clothes dryer broke on our last day), but Cate was very responsive: we were supplied with 3 space heaters, she immediately had a replacement hairdryer for us, and a brand new central heating unit was installed in a week.
Our stay was quiet and relaxing, and it was a great place to contain ourselves while things settled down. We were also lucky enough to have a screech owl perched in the bamboo outside the kitchen window, which we spotted twice during our last week. Overall, it made for a cozy stay for our Asheville trip, and we'd love to return again once everything reopens!
