Great mountain home! I can’t say enough great things about this property! The views were wonderful, the house was extremely clean, the location was perfect, and the kitchen was fully stocked plus some. I’ve rented a lot of VRBO properties over the years and I can honestly say that the owners of the Honey Bee Hideaway are the most organized and informative hosts I’ve ever encountered. They really thought of all the little things that might be helpful for a guest and the details on what to do in the area was extensive! We can’t wait to go back to stay here again!

From the first contact with Trista, she was the most amazing host. She supplied SO much information about the area and things that interested us. The property was wonderful with every detail you could think of taken care of. Beds are comfortable (always a concern) and property clean. We had rain twice during our stay, but it didn't dampen our fun while there. We loved the covered porch area and ate our meals there. I highly recommend a stay there - you are made to feel like the most welcomed guest.
