The Black Fern Cottage at Kingston Downs offers everything you need for a relaxing getaway with family or friends. The cottage is outfitted with a modern kitchen equipped with all the essentials needed for a retreat away. With two spacious bedrooms all with luxurious eco-friendly linens...you'll experience the deepest of sleeps. Start your days on the adventurous side with an enclosed rainfall outdoor shower that sits alongside your cottage. Prefer to save the fresh air for after breakfast, you can opt to enjoy the comfort of an indoor walk-in shower. End your day with a hot soak in our wood-barrel hot tub surrounded by the woodlands. How you choose to experience Kingston Downs is entirely up to you!

You'll have access not only to our private property, but you'll also enjoy one of the main benefits of this unique location: walk-on access to miles of trails and one of the most historical portions of the Etowah River. This beautiful section of the river is within walking distance from your cottage and can be conveniently explored at your leisure.

We offer a number of additional on-property experiences including: kayaking, private yoga session and guided fly fishing. These experiences come at an additional cost with the price varying based on the experience and number of guests. Regardless of how you experience your stay, we suggest ending your night fireside at your own private fire pit. We provide a complimentary rack of firewood, and it is $20 per additional rack requested. Please inquire and book your experiences ahead of your stay.

One of our goals is to reduce our environmental footprint whenever possible, you will find our cottages are uniquely decorated with an eclectic mix of antiques and vintage heirlooms, and that we promote a leave no trace philosophy when experiencing our trails and the Etowah river.

Whether it be traversing along the wildflower meadow, hiking our trails, observing the honeybees at work, or chatting with friends under a starry night sky, here at Kingston Downs you will experience an unforgettable connection with each other and with nature.

We have two other cottages near the Black Fern: The Nest Cottage, which sleeps 2 & The Casa Verde Cottage which sleeps 6.
