Weekend getaway

We had an amazing weekend. Our 3 boys loved the creek in the back and we had a nice campfire and cooked smores! The cabin had everything we needed to make it a comfortable weekend. We enjoyed Lake James and hiking! The kids are already asking to go back!

Quick Weekend

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. My wife and two boys took a quick weekend to go to the mountains to get away from all the stress of coronavirus. House is super cute, great location, great hot tub, and fire pit. Would definitely do it again.

Creekside stay in a quaint cabin

Our family of 5 and dog thoroughly enjoyed the stay at the creekside cabin. Having all the kids together in the bunk bed room went smoothly. Enjoyed the hot tub and all the yard games. Bring bug spray though if you'll be outside! Loved the open kitchen & living room. Appreciated the starter wood for the fire pit

BEST WEEKEND EVER!!

This place was absolutely amazing! My family and I enjoyed every single minute! From everything there is to do at the cabin in general to being right down the road from many things to do like hiking, site seeing and zip lining! This is now our favorite place to stay by far! I wish there was an option for 10 stars!!!

Glad to be back!

It was so nice to come back to Bee At Peace. This place not only holds a special place in my heart that I shared with my late fiance, but it was amazing to come back for a few days and bring my kids, my nephews and mother in law to share the beauty of this place. Everyone insisted we needed to live here. I totally would! Nothing negative to say about this place.

Peace and quiet

This property was a great quick weekend getaway for us. We have 2 large dogs and an outdoorsy toddler. They all loved running the property and exploring. If you are looking for a place to disconnect, this is it. There is zero cell reception, which was great for family time.

Gorgeous freshly renovated cabin

Our family enjoyed the stay at this beautiful cabin. There was a big kitchen with everything we needed and everything was clean and comfortable. The hot tub was well maintained and nice and the local natural area was beautiful. Just renovated and felt like we were in a new house with a rustic feel. Great communication from owners. The owners even decorated for Christmas which helped us feel at home. hope to stay here again!

Picturesque

Absolutely beautiful location! My family and I enjoyed our days playing outside and listening to nature. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed being able to run as much as she wanted. A picnic table would be nice, along with possibly a drink pitcher to make juice. Obviously not deal breakers though. The cabin itself is cozy and just perfect. :) highly recommend this place

Amazing getaway!

My family and I had such an amazing stay here just disconnecting from everything! Lots of cool spots to visit within an hour or less and only 15 minutes from local stores. Grandfather mountain is a must see as well as the upper falls! Christy and her family have done an amazing job making sure there are plenty of things to do at the house from a great fire pit area, hammocks, outdoor and indoor games. My kids were big fans of bingo and the hot tub! Thanks for sharing it!

Excellent Place To Stay!!

Our family of four and our two pups love this cabin and yard! This was our fourth time back, and it still was just as relaxing. We love the seclusion that this property brings. It’s like time slows down when we are there, and that’s what we love. It’s a great place to relax and read, but also has local hiking trails to enjoy too. Our 8.5 year old pups run and play like no other time when staying here. It’s like they even get rejuvenated! Our 7 and 5 year old kiddos love the cozy cabin and all the activities that’s provided by the home owner! The home owners are super sweet people, and are super receptive both prior to, during, and after our stays! It’s just a great place to stay! 😁

Private and cozy

Great little cabin on a main road but no neighbors close by. Owners have really went to great measures to help you reconnect with each other while unplugging. They provided great outdoor activities which would be great in nice weather. No cell service or WiFi but this is part of the charm. There is a landline at the house for local calls and emergency use and cell service is available just a mile or so away. Strongly recommend for those really wanting to enjoy the outdoors and disconnect from the busy everyday life. Christy was very responsive and helpful.

Best place I've ever had the pleasure of staying.

This property and it's owners are nothing short of amazing. I have never been happier than my week spent at this peaceful property. Even my dog that's typically anxious with all the noise at home was the most relaxed I had ever seen him. You can tell the moment you arrive that great consideration was given by the hosts when deciding to share their property with others. They provide more than enough for a rental to keep you entertained and comfortable. There is also beautiful trails right at the end of the rd and a fairly short drive to anything you may need. So, in conclusion, if you can live without internet and cell definitely visit. If you cannot then just move on because you may just not be able to appreciate what this property has to offer. Huge thank you to the hosts for sharing your home. We will be back.

Why they chose this property

We love escaping to the cabin with our kids! We bought it with the idea of fixing it up and sharing it with others. Disconnecting brings our family closer together and we hope it will do the same for you! Badminton and horseshoes are some of our kid's favorite things to play at the cabin!
