We had a really great stay. The house was perfect - really clean and decorated very nicely. The location was perfect for accessing Asheville and all the surrounding attractions. It felt like you were secluded in the woods but close to everything you need. We are already talking about going back.

We loved our time at the cabin in the woods! We felt as though we were all alone in the forest but yet were only 20 minutes from practically everywhere. Anne was responsive to our needs. The cabin’s amenities of hot tub, laundry, and full kitchen were used daily. We will definitely stay here again! Oh, and the air conditioner was a lifesaver!!!

Sweet Spot

Little House in the Big Woods was a perfect place for my daughter and me for a weekend getaway to Asheville. It was convenient to town, yet far enough away for us to be able to enjoy the slower pace of the woods.

We thoroughly enjoyed this cabin . The setting was very private in the woods very peaceful. The cabin itself had everything that we needed was very clean easy to check in. We came up to Asheville to go hiking and played in a tennis tournament and we were able to enjoy both and come back to relax in the hot tub. Owner was easy to work with and answered all questions . We will absolutely look up this place to see if it's available the next time we are in Asheville, which we hope to be very soon.

Spring visit

We were looking for a place close to our friends in Asheville that would give us our own quiet space to unwind and rest after a long day of exploring and hiking. The bedrooms were comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. Waking up early and walking the trails was a highlight for me. The woods and the view are beautiful. We were close to the mountains and everything Asheville has to offer. My kids appreciated the board games Thank you for the great stay!

We loved staying here! Check in and out were both super easy. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. Code for the lock, so we didn't have to worry about losing a key. The property is located in a quiet, private and beautiful location. It's close to downtown Asheville, and also a quick drive to get to any of the outdoor activities in the area. We enjoyed the hot tub and cooked several meals in the kitchen. It had all the cookware one could need.Host is very responsive to any questions!The only reason I gave four stars was because the dehumidifier is located in the closet of one of the bedrooms. It would turn on and off frequently, and is pretty loud when it runs. We didn't sleep very well in that room. However, we will definitely stay here again!

Great location and nice home layout

I enjoyed this home with my family (wife and two kids). We really liked the layout of the home, the upstairs area with kitchen was very comfortable and accommodating. We had everything we needed. We also made several trips into and around Asheville and were pleased with how quickly we could go to and fro. I especially appreciate how remote the house felt, but, still close to the town. Once piece of feedback for this home - the lower level had lots of moisture in the air. When we arrived we noticed a particular dampness and odor that never subsided. This really took away from the comfort level of the home.

Thanks for your review. We've never had any complaints about the moisture level in the home before but we will address the issue for the comfort of all future guests. It's likely the settings for the mini-splits (the heating and AC units) weren't set correctly. It would have been nice if you had contacted us during your stay so we could have addressed it at that time.

Great, new, isolated cottage in thw woods with all the modern conveniences

We spent five glorious days in the quiet isolation of the Little House in the Big Woods with our Service Dog. It was named well, is very well equipped and has comfortable beds, a great Wi-Fi signal, three flat screen TVs, and a fully equipped kitchen. It does not have cable TV, but it does have Roku, Netflix and Hulu, so it is not lacking in entertainment technology. If you can access your streaming xfinity account, you don't miss anything. The fire pit was great, and the gas grill was also great for grilling. It is a short distance from Hendersonville, and a great meal at Vinnie's Neighborhood Italian was all you need to make it a memorable break. Downtown Asheville and Chimney Rock were a short drive away.

Redbud Lane, Liecester, NC

What a gem this apparently newly built or renovated rental house turned out to be! We have stayed in several vacation rental houses, and this is FAR and AWAY the best appointed of them all. It has very nice design features, from the lighting to the pocket doors to the lovely patio. The kitchen is terrific and was provided with everything three people could want in cooking, cleaning, and storage. The isolation at the end of the road was scary at first and romantic at last. NOTHING but woods around and near neighbors that we could not see. Far enough away and close enough to town to be fine. Comfortable beds and maybe the finest bathroom we have ever experienced in a vacation home. A few minor negatives. Change the directions to read take the SECOND fork right. It would have been nice to have some firewood handy for the fire pit. We eventually found some in town on the third day. We also know the TV situation - no cable - and access to major network TV would have been nice. Other than that, we had a delightful 4-night stay at this property.
