We already miss Little Bee Woods! It was such a nice, relaxing, private stay with our two girls. It was secluded enough to have peace and quiet but close enough to Asheville and other areas that we didn’t feel like we were constantly in the car. Charles made sure we had everything we needed and the house was well equipped-we were never searching for what we needed-they thought of everything! We enjoyed the sauna, hot tub, had fires multiple nights and naps on the porch-perfection!

What an incredible stay! My husband and I absolutely loved this peaceful mountain getaway. The home was beautifully designed with every thoughtful detail imaginable — from the fully stocked kitchen to the cozy porch and relaxing hot tub. The views were stunning, and the privacy made it feel like our own hidden retreat tucked up in the mountains. You can truly feel the care and intentionality that went into creating this space. We left feeling refreshed and can’t wait to come back again soon!

Our stay at Little Bee Woods was awesome! I like to cook when I go on getaways and this rental has more than what you need to cook any dish. The place was clean upon arrival and the host was very personable. I would recommend this rental to anyone looking to get away and enjoy the mountains.

Quiet, secluded getaway

This property is one of the better ones we've rented for family vacations and it's exactly as advertised. If you're looking for a quiet place to wind down and watch the sunset through the trees from a cozy screened-in porch after exploring the greater Asheville area, then this is for you. The house has everything you need for a comfy stay, including a relaxing hot tub.

Anniversary Weekend

A perfect paradise tucked away in the NC mountains. It was spacious, clean and most importantly well stocked with most of the everyday kitchen items. The owner checked up on us several times and made sure all our needs were met. We maintained our privacy throughout the stay. We had a wonderful time and look forward to visiting again.

The cottage was immaculate. Super clean, bright, airy. Kitchen was very well appointed. As the cook in my group, I loved cooking in this kitchen and wanted for nothing. Owners were super communicative and they provided an awesome check-in/out guide, kitchen guide and even gave us recommendations for activities and restaurants. Beds were super comfortable. Our front wheel cars did not have an issue with the mountain road, but if you come in winter months… FWD needed. View was beautiful. We can’t wait to come back!!

Book The Stay!

We just got home from a four night stay and already can’t wait to go back! Sipping coffee on the screened in porch, looking at the stars while in the hot tub, and enjoying all the local spots was the perfect way to relax and reconnect. I also booked a massage with the massage therapist the owner suggested and she came to the house and set up the table on the porch. 10/10 experience all around!

Little Bee Woods!

Little Bee Woods was a perfect couple’s get away. The house was so lovely and spacious, we wished we invited more friends to enjoy! The home had everything you needed and more- from espresso machine to hot tub and everything in between. The view was amazing and we were so happy that it was dog friendly. Thank you for sharing this lovely home with us!

Family Vacation

We had an amazing week at Little Bee Woods. We spent the days hiking and exploring the beautiful mountains and nights relaxing on the screened in porch, resting in the hot tub and playing games with our kids. The kitchen was spectacular to cook in with out having to go out for dinner. The hosts were great and responded quickly with any questions.

We had such a wonderful time! Charles communicated with us before, during, and after our stay to ensure that we were well taken care of. The cabin was beautiful, and the screened in porch provides excellent views of the mountain and a relaxing place to lounge after a long day exploring Asheville. We will definitely be back!
