The Bungalow at Purple Martin Greenway

About this space
The coziest stay in the area, this craftsman house is just steps away from the trailhead and minutes from downtown. Filled original artwork and loads of character, it'll have you feeling at home as soon as you enter. Dine by candlelight under the beautiful chandelier. Pick a book to read in one of the comfy club chairs or the chesterfield leather sofa. Sip a glass of wine on the porch. Bluetooth Bose speaker, a library of board games and DVDs, or stream Netflix/Hulu over fiber optic WiFi - there is a smart TV in every bedroom and in the living room. Stocked with luxury linens for bed/bath...

I normally check guests in to show them where everything is and to get oriented - then leave to to enjoy yourselves. I’m always happy to assist with setting you up with local services and answer any questions/ help with needs during your visit.

The home is in a great location, nested right at the trailhead of the Purple Martin Greenway, yet right off 221 and just minutes from downtown. Walk out of the front door and simply meander, or follow the trail all the way to downtown. The Equestrian Center is just a short drive, and Lake Lure is not far away.

Large parking area outside the house - will accommodate an RV, trailer or multiple vehicles.

We had a relaxing staff at the bungalow. Located right on the greenway, it was easy to take our pup for a walk! I usually don’t sleep good away from home, but the beds AND pillows were super comfortable! Great location minutes away from downtown. The host was very responsive to any questions.

Fantastic Stay

Sallie was a great host. She was very accommodating to my team as we served the western NC area after Hurricane Helene. Thank you for opening up your home to us during this time!

Great little bungalow

My family and I stayed here for my mother’s funeral. The beds were super comfortable and cozy. The location was extremely close to downtown. Sallie was extremely easy to work with and compassionate.
