Piermont Cottage

Piermont Cottage is a private event venue in Highlands, North Carolina, set within the Old Edwards hospitality collection. Its historic cottage, landscaped gardens and open lawns offer organisers a secluded setting for weddings, ceremonies and receptions, while still being within walking distance of downtown Highlands.

The grounds include a garden ceremony lawn, a broad event lawn suitable for a tented reception, a stone terrace with a built-in bar and an outdoor arbor. The venue can host ceremonies for up to 120 guests and receptions for up to 220, making it a choice for celebrations ranging from an intimate gathering to a larger wedding day. The cottage itself has four bedrooms, four bathrooms and two half-bathrooms, alongside a kitchen, dining room, den and wrap-around porch. This makes it possible to combine the event setting with accommodation for a small group or wedding party.

The property is available seasonally, from May to October. Its lawns and garden spaces allow couples and planners to shape the event around the outdoors, while the terrace and cottage provide additional places for guests to gather. A porte cochère, event facilities and outdoor restrooms support the practical side of hosting. Piermont Cottage is particularly suited to wedding ceremonies and receptions, as well as related gatherings during a wedding weekend. It is offered as a bookable venue by Old Edwards, with its meetings and special events team available to discuss arrangements and planning.
