Hurricane Helene Update for Asheville Cottages

As many of you may already know, the cottages made it through Hurricane Helene with no damage at all.

We are a mile away from the nearest river so flooding wasn't a problem.

Because of God's grace, we never lost power and since we get our water from a deep well, we never lost water either.

We understandably lost all of our October reservations after the storm, so we were able to house locals without housing, power and water. We were also able to host a group of Forest Service personnel for three weeks.

Power and water has been restored to most of the Asheville area.

​We look forward to hosting all of our upcoming guests. If you are arriving before the end of the year, be prepared to find very few tourist and VERY welcoming business owners.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


While planning your time in our beautiful mountain community, we thought we might offer a little locals’ advice for respecting our current situation…
 
1) DO support local businesses. Most businesses are open and patiently waiting for their customers to return. The couple in the picture above purchased something the other day (10/23/2024) from a merchant downtown. After the purchase, the owner cried and gave them a hug saying that they were the first people to buy something since the hurricane.


3) DON’T “grief peep”. Areas that were harder hit including, but not limited to, Biltmore Village, Swannanoa, the River Arts District, Marshall, Bat Cave, Lake Lure, Burnsville, Barnardsville and Chimney Rock are still in full blown, active recovery and clean up. Please avoid driving through these areas and hampering relief efforts.
 
Our area is in a precarious situation and our community is experiencing a wide spectrum of physical, emotional and financial burdens.

 

While it is of utmost importance to respect that so many of our community members need space to recover, there other many others whose survival depends on the support of our visitors.
