It was great
What a great experience from beginning to end. The check in process was so easy and Katie has everything labeled with helpful notes around the house. She even has the TV listings numerically and alphabetically typed out. The attention to detail and the organization of the house was amazing. The location was great as well. We went to Asheville for brunch at Over Easy Cafe and had lunch at Tupelo Honey. Both were great. Also tried out Native Kitchen which was only about 5 minutes away and so so good(get the Brussel sprouts). Overall a wonderful experience and would definitely book it again.
Very nice property. Home was very clean with everything you need for cooking etc. Décor was adorable. We were within 15 minutes to Asheville, 20 to Biltmore Estate property. Everything else to have fun and explore was all 10-20 minutes time.
This was a great location for a family get together. Location was perfect for us, and we plan on returning. We went hiking and enjoyed visiting Asheville. Only suggestion would be to upgrade the single twin room to a double or queen bed. That would make it ideal for a couples retreat.
Owner was great to deal with. Home was amazing so clean and well stocked. Booking was super easy. Sensitive neighbors but still enjoyed our stay throughly.
Very easy to rent this home
This is one of favorite houses to rent. It’s such a beautiful home and location is ideal. We’ve come back to this house many times. I highly recommend.
What a charming place to stay! So many thoughtful surprises for our family. From games and fresh cut flowers from the garden to our favorite, the tree swing. We wish we could have stayed longer. Very convenient to downtown Asheville yet feels away from it all.
Lovely house and it has everything you need to feel like you are at home.....but on vacation!! Myself and some friends have stayed here for an annual trip several years and we have never been disappointed.
This was the second time I stayed at Beekeeper Cottage... it was so nice the first time I opted to stay there again. In a quiet neighborhood, this beautifully decorated and immaculately kept home offers the best of both worlds: it's only minutes to both downtown Asheville and the Black Mountain area. Plenty of room for a family, but not too large for a couple to still feel cozy. The landscaped yard is large with a wonderful front porch for taking in the cool mountain breeze. Highly recommended!
