This home was just what we needed. The host went above and beyond within the first hour due to me having trouble connecting to Wi-Fi. The king bed was phenomenal. I don't remember the name of it and it didn't adjust for firmness, but it had a zero gravity option which I used for the whole week. You could raise your head up independently and your feet up independently. It was delightful. Even though the water lines the ice maker broke while we were there and caused a teeny water problem, the caretaker was there in a matter of minutes to take care of the issue and turned off the water line. It's that kind of customer service that a traveler is looking for. It wasn't a problem that we didn't have ice we just went and bought ice. The decorations were out of a magazine; very well thought out. The other beds were comfortable too as well as the recliner and couch. The TV was huge! It was like you were right in the action. The host left a cookbook there from Magnolia and my daughter made us the chicken alfredo. It was so delicious! My only negative is that it was on a two-lane road with a double yellow line and the people driving that road go way too fast. We didn't feel like it was safe to walk our dogs on that road so we would go to a park and walk them. I would definitely return. The customer service from both the host and the caretaker was very assuring. We felt like we were in good hands. We also were so grateful to have found a place that allowed our dogs.

Great mountain house!

This is a great mountain house that is very clean and nicely decorated. Good location to Black Mountain and not too far from Asheville. Bedding is top notch. Nice touch with coffee supplies. Nice yard if you have your dog with you. Definitely recommend this spot. The only thing I would note is that the game room area with an extra bed is actually downstairs with an outside entrance only. Not a big deal and it’s nice - just worth knowing that ahead of time.

Cozy, comfortable, convenient and clean!

My husband and I had the privilege of staying at Bee Tree Haven for 4 nights in mid September. Communication with King and Kristine was fantastic - timely, clear, and informative. The check-in and check-out processes were easy. Although there are several steps at the front entrance, the only time we used them was at checkin and checkout. Bee Tree Haven is very cozy, comfortable and sparkling clean. We've rented over 50 homes while traveling, and found the furniture in the living area to be top notch. The beds were also comfortable with several choices of mattresses, depending on your preference. The kitchen had everything we needed, although we did not cook very much while there. If you plan on cooking during your stay, you may need to bring spices etc., as only salt and pepper are provided. We actually ended up staying at the house more than usual, due to some physical limitations and were so grateful for the comfortable furniture, wonderful assortment of cozy pillows and soft blankets, ideal temperature control, Netflix (!), etc. The location is very convenient between Maggie Valley and Asheville. We highly recommend Bee Tree Haven to anyone planning a visit to the area! Thanks for everything, King and Kristine!

Forever our go to place in Asheville

Forever our go to place in Asheville, This place was wonderful. We have stayed at a few places in Asheville and none of them compared to our experience at the Bee tree cottage. From the first communication with Kristina, to the stay, to my final communication with Kristina the experience was top notch! The house is impeccably clean very inviting and Kristina and King have thought of every amenity. Including phone chargers in the main room and the bedrooms. The area was peaceful we grilled, made s’mores in the fire pit, and the view of the mountains from the front of the house was breathtaking. We also visited the Biltmore and it was easy travel to downtown Asheville. As stated before, we are hoping that this will always be our destination when we visit Asheville and highly recommend it to anyone else visiting Asheville. Thank you King and Kristina for being the amazing hosts that you are.

From the moment we booked to departure our host could not have been more accommodating. The place is exactly as pictured, and has that ‘home away from home’ feel! Our family enjoyed a snow filled trip and look forward to another trip again soon. Thank you

We understand the value and comfort of a local home, away from your own, that allows for truly unique and authentic experiences while traveling.

Why they chose this property

While we are always close to the ocean, we found retreat being among the mountains. Our cozy mountain home is the perfect haven during your adventures in Asheville, North Carolina. With its central and convenient location, you can easily drive to downtown Asheville and enjoy some art, culture and local breweries, head to Biltmore Estate, America's largest home with plenty of scenery and activities to indulge in, explore Blue Ridge parkway for endless hiking trails, picnic areas and waterfalls.

What makes this property unique

As our guests at Bee Tree Haven, you can enjoy our spacious hilltop landscape and amazing mountain views right from the front porch and side deck patio. Our inviting rocking chairs on the front porch are better paired with your morning coffee or afternoon tea. Relax and warm up around the firepit while indulging in BBQ on our patio deck. There is a bonus room downstairs with only exterior access to the house, ideal for lounge, play, work or exercise. Did we mention we have a Serta bed in our Master bedroom so you can customize your sleep from every angle with multiple comfort options and a fully wireless remote?
