Little Bee Woods

$75 cleaning fee!!!! $50 per dog pet fee, up to two dogs. 10% discount for a 3-6 day stay, 15% for a 6-29 day stay, 20% for a month or longer stay. The Cabin at Little Bee Woods was completed in December of 2022, and we are excited to welcome our guests to this modern and comfortable cottage and grounds. The cabin has two bedrooms and two full bathrooms that sleeps eight guests. The primary bedroom has a king-sized bed with a twin, and the secondary bedroom has a queen and a twin. The living room has a convertible, yet comfortable, sofa to accommodate additional guests. The great room has an open floor plan, a gourmet kitchen, a large dining table, and a living room with a flat-screen TV. The entryway to the cottage is a two hundred square foot timber frame screened-in porch with a table perfect for morning coffee or an afternoon cocktail while watching the sunset over Watch Knob. We are the ideal spot for a romantic getaway, family vacation, couples vacation, or micro-events. Black Mountain is fifteen minutes door-to-door, and Asheville is twenty-five minutes. Come on up and relax in the Swannanoa Valley.

Peaceful secluded little spot in the mountains
We absolutely loved our stay here. Charles was wonderful and easy going to work with. The surroundings were exactly what we were hoping for, the cabin clean, cute, yet spacious. I don't think there is anything he forgot to supply the kitchen with. We spent several mornings and evenings out on the porch enjoying the view and nature watching. We highly recommend!

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!

Best Stay!
We rented Little Bee Woods as our vacation home during a trip to Asheville and were so happy with our stay! The home was beautiful, clean, and sat on the most beautiful piece of property. We had the opportunity to meet Charles during our stay and he was so friendly and helpful. Couldn’t have picked a better place to enjoy our time in North Carolina. Little Bee Woods gave us the tranquility we were searching for while still being close proximity to the city. We would 100% rent here again!

Man! We couldn’t say more about this place and the property owner. A little peace of heaven tucked up into the mountains with all the amenities any one wanting a get away could need. Our time here was relaxing and so peaceful. We would highly recommend staying here. From the communication, to the check in/out process, and the thoughtfulness of the property and house makes this a wonderful stay. Can’t want to go back!

Beautiful Cabin nestled in the woods
Took a long weekend Spring Break trip with our family (and dogs) and had an absolutely wonderful trip. Charles was a great host. He had the place looking pristine for us and was very attentive and available via text whenever I asked for recommendation, or had a question about the house. The kitchen is incredible and the various methods to prepare coffee was something that really stood out to us. Can't wait to come back and enjoy this cabin again. Nestled perfectly between Black Mountain and Asheville, accessing either town was a breeze! Can not recommend this cabin enough!

My friends and I stayed here during our holiday break from PA school & absolutely LOVED our experience. Little Bee Woods is the perfect place for privacy & relaxation. We even got to see a few black bears off of the front porch one morning. The kitchen was extremely well-stocked & they even had some games for us to play while we were there. Would HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone looking to stay near Asheville for a getaway.

This is a lovely property. Everything was exactly as the listing said it would be and more. The house was beautifully designed and curated. Completely charming and a perfect getaway. Charles was easy to connect with and totally attentive to any requests and questions. It was a great space for just my husband and me, but would also be great for our family as well with two bedrooms and plenty of sleeping spots. We loved our time here and would absolutely stay again!

Amazing Mountain Home!
Thank you for sharing your little slice of heaven with us! The home was immaculate and the views were stunning! We loved sitting on the deck in the morning listening to the birds as the wind blew through the trees. It was so peaceful and it made it difficult to leave for a day of hiking. At night we loved listening to music on the porch, sitting by the fire, and relaxing in the hot tub! The beds are super comfortable and the home literally has EVERYTHING you could possibly need for a stay! We got the pleasure of meeting Charles and his super sweet dogs! Charles is super cool, and an amazing host! He was so accommodating and super responsive! I cannot thank him enough for allowing us to celebrate our 15 year anniversary on his property! We will see you again next year with the whole family! Cheers! Jason and Jen!

Immaculate Cabin
We really had a great time at the cabin. We loved the interior and freshness of the cabin. It gives a very warm and comfortable feel, and we have to rank this number one in cleanliness and comfort feeling from all the properties we stayed in. You can tell the owners take extremely well care of the property, and it does not feel like a rental, but more at staying at your own house. Please do not change that!

Beautiful property!
The house is absolutely amazing, super new and super clean. Was a wonderful getaway tucked into the mountains. My favorite part were the speakers in the porch and in the house that were easy to link to, so you could play music all the time. Made for a great atmosphere. Charles told us how to turn on the “light show” while we were out in the hot tub and it was amazing! So many little details he made sure to think about and it showed. We loved the screened in porch and so did the pup! I’d go back in again in a heartbeat, we felt pampered even out in the wilderness
