Monthly Rentals in Bat Cave

Four-wheel drive is a must! The cabin is beautiful and tucked away in the forest on the mountainside. Glen and Min provided clear, detailed instructions for locating the property, including a helpful photo of a map with options for entering the driveway. Check-in was simple—just entering our code into the deadbolt. The cabin itself was peaceful, cozy, and incredibly clean—spotless, really. As mentioned in the listing, the area is still recovering from Hurricane Helene. Our hearts go out to the community, and we appreciate the efforts of North Carolina and its residents to keep things running smoothly and open to visitors. We hiked the breathtaking Bearwallow Mountain Trail—absolutely stunning at the summit. It felt like a scene from The Sound of Music. Glen and Min were friendly and responsive both during our arrival and after. We’re already looking forward to returning as soon as we can.

“Best one yet,” to quote my husband. We LOVED calling this adorable and private accommodation of Rose’s our home away from home for the 12 days we spent in Chimney Rock. Everything that we needed and more was provided. Rose is delightful and made us feel so welcomed. The village of Chimney Rock, nestled in the Hickory Nut Gorge, is a treasure with restaurants and plenty of little shops that are walkable from this location. And the star of the show, Chimney Rock State Park, is directly behind Rose’s house, just a 3-mile jaunt up the mountain. Rose’s garden alone is a gem to behold, located right outside your door. We loved the privacy of the location, as well as the peace and quiet that was afforded to us after busy days hiking and exploring this magnificent region. We were thrilled to see a few other residents of this area from time to time, members of the black bear population. So if you are searching for an authentic experience when coming to Chimney Rock, this is the place!

Beautiful cottage in serene surroundings. It somehow feels like a charming old log cabin even though it’s a new and modern home with all amenities. Open the windows and you’ll hear the sound of the nearby river. Good idea to have a 4x4 but we managed without one.

The barn is welcoming and charming. The area is very quiet and surrounded by beautiful scenery. The effort the host’s put into making our stay comfortable was great. The house was stocked with your every day essentials and clean. We were supplied with plenty of fire wood for the camp fires. The stream was a delight to spend time by. I can’t think of a single bad thing to say.
