Located in Swannanoa between the small town of Black Mountain and the city of Asheville allows you to enjoy the best of both worlds. Before journeying into the city of Asheville, just 15 minutes away, be sure to stop by Moments Coffee Bar or Dynamite Roasting Co for your caffeine fix. Once in Asheville, take time to experience the award-winning restaurants, art studios, America’s Largest Home ®, the Biltmore Estate, and specialty shops filled with regional treasures that you can take home to remind you of your time spent in the mountains. For outdoor enthusiasts, take a drive along the Blue Ridge Parkway to enjoy each season’s changing foliage and stop along the many mileposts and overlooks for scenic hikes and epic selfies. For a low-key day outside the big city, Black Mountain is a charming town less than 10 minutes away that boasts its own amazing shops and restaurants like Trail Head Restaurant & Bar where you can enjoy pub snacks and fresh mojitos on the open-air deck and Black Mountain Kitchen & Ale House where you can find ridiculously great fried chicken and the best local brews. If you prefer to stay in the adorable town of Swannanoa where the home is located, walk along the Warren Wilson River Trail that winds through idyllic meadows and farmland, spend your mornings and afternoons fishing at Ward's Carp Lake, or enjoy the "pay it forward" veggie garden with instructions at the Swannanoa Community Garden. Bee Tree Bliss is a 5-minute drive from Warren Wilson College, making it a convenient vacation spot for family and friends visiting students who attend the historic school. Swannanoa also has a few tasty dining options like local favorite Okie Dokie’s Smokehouse where you’ll find the sweetest tea and smokiest BBQ around, Jimmy’s on the River where you’ll find pizza and cold beer, and the newly-established Loot House where you'll find delicious burgers and southern dishes with a gourmet spin. Offering unparalleled charm and convenience, a truly blissful stay awaits you at Bee Tree Bliss! Please note: This home is pet-friendly with an additional fee.
