About this property

AHMA Cottage 1

  • As you pull off of Country Highway 276 and cross over the glistening Pigeon River into the property, you are surrounded by 190 acres of pristine mountain terrain and 1/2 mile of river frontage. The AHMA cottage highlights Western North Carolina's most beautiful qualities and boasts four bedrooms, three and a half baths, and high-end furniture and fixtures throughout. At AHMA, fresh and charming spaces combine with breathtaking outdoor scenery to create a paradise for all to enjoy.

    AHMA Cottage 1 is one of 3 cottages on property where you can enjoy our 0.6 miles of river frontage on the East Fork of the Pigeon River. Two cottages are located on a short street and another 2 person cottage is located riverside. We have two stone entryways into river for access to swimming, BYO tubing and fishing,

    You also have access on foot to our gravel roads that climb to 3995 feet in altitude or to the Sunset knoll just up hill from our Bunkhouse (black dorm-like building above the pond), that has a gorgeous stone knee wall and perfect for a picnic or photo op of the Rocky Face mountain backdrop!! The meadow is in our riverside valley and green and lush - play ball, practice your golf swing or throw a frisbee. Enjoy nature hikes, blackberry and apple picking, foraging and exploring, or a game of corn hole provided at the house. Something for everyone.

    Other things to note: Parties, events, weddings, elopements, professional photography, etc where additional people are at property (other than 10 registered guests) all require written permission and/or event fee from host/owner prior to reservation.

Willow Cottage

We love the cottage. Very private with so much nice property to explore. Beautiful views and easy access to the Pigeon river. The grandchildren loved the bunk bed room. We saw a note regarding the garage door opener in the laundry room. Did not need it, but could not find a garage door opener anywhere. We look forward to oue next visit.

We just returned from spending 2 beautiful weeks at AHMA Cottage 1. We have been to the property several times over the last 10 years and find it relaxing and consider it a unique offering in the area. I have traveled the world and stayed at many beautiful properties, this is among my favorites. I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys the beauty and solitude of the mountains in a quiet, lovely, and tranquil environment, Those who wish to hike, river raft, golf, or engage in any number of nearby activities will find many opportunities nearby. I plan on returning very soon.
