Walk your dog to Mars Hill University and Town Center from the Cascade Cottage

The charming Cascade Cottage, featuring two bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms that comfortably accommodates up to four guests. Our estate offers a perfect mix of privacy and convenience, as we're just a short walk from Mars Hill University and downtown Mars Hill businesses. Twin Willows is also located just 25 minutes north of Asheville, NC, which means you'll have access to hiking, skiing, rafting, zip-lining, and exploring the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Your vacation home is located on the beautiful 14-acre Twin Willows Estate, which is also home to The Smokin’ Joe Lasher Kitchen and The Cabin at Twin Willows. These popular local spots are completely separate from the rental homes, with their own dedicated spaces, but share the same driveway entrance.

Guests often find this to be a delightful bonus to their stay! Just a short stroll down the hill, you can enjoy freshly prepared meals, local craft beer and wine, hand-spun milkshakes, smoothies, and more. The public areas also feature lawn games, live music, and seasonal events such as outdoor movie nights.

Of course, when you’re ready to relax, your private residence offers a peaceful retreat—perfect for unwinding after a day of fun. Catering options from The Smokin’ Joe Lasher Kitchen are also available, making it easy to enjoy great food without leaving the comfort of your home-away-from-home.

Whether you choose to join in the festivities or simply enjoy the quiet beauty of the estate, Twin Willows offers the best of both worlds.

Cascade Cottage in Mars Hill, N.C.

We stayed at Twin Willows in Mars Hill, NC at Cascade Cottage and had the best time. It was absolutely amazing and beautiful. I would definitely recommend staying there. Smokin’Joe Lasher food truck was the best, he can definitely cook! Delicious! We will definitely stay here again and I highly recommend Twin Willows and stay at Cascade Cottage..

The home was clean and comfortable - a great place to rest after 2 days spent volunteering. We weren't able to get the Keurig to work. Also we suggest heavier curtains in one bedroom to keep outside light out at night. Other than those 2 areas, we thoroughly enjoyed the stay and would highly recommend it to others.
