Montreat Mountain Retreat & Adventure
Three nights. Twelve guests. A beautiful mountain cottage. Wine, hiking, and plenty of time to slow down.
Gather your favorite people and head to Montreat for three nights at DuBard Cottage, a beautifully renovated 1920s mountain home that blends historic charm with modern comfort. Nestled near Rainbow Ridge and just a short walk from the heart of Montreat, this spacious retreat is made for gathering, relaxing, and enjoying the outdoors.
With four bedrooms and accommodations for up to 12 guests, there’s room for the whole crew. Spend your mornings exploring Montreat’s trails, afternoons relaxing on the screened-in porch, and evenings gathered around the fire pit or one of the cottage’s two fireplaces. The home features a spacious kitchen, two dining areas with combined seating for up to 18, a great room, and plenty of space to spread out.
And this package gives you even more reasons to get outside and enjoy the mountains.
