We had a great time. Loved the cabin, especially how clean it was. Host is super nice and truly cares about your wellbeing. Loved the location. Can’t wait to go back!
Loved the honeybee hide away! Perfect location - very close to town and other outdoor adventures. Very well stocked - had everything we needed and more! Kids loved the loft area and adults loved the expansive porch with rocking chairs. Thanks for a fantastic stay!
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.
This is our second time staying at this property. Beautiful deck and views. Clean and good layout all on same level. Close to town for restaurants and shopping. Perfect house for two older adults and teen grandchild.
Spacious, on brand, and clean! Directions very clear and so many things nearby to visit/do, or just as enjoyable to sit on the back porch and take in the view!
We loved the covered back porch with a view of the mountains while enjoying the fireplace on the cool evenings. The location of the house was very close to town yet, it felt like we were hidden away in the mountains.

Beautiful Home close to down town Highlands! Gorgeous
views, love the outdoor living area and fireplace, great Kitchen. We stayed here for 2 nights while wedding planning for our daughters wedding next year at Old Eds. 20 minutes from Whitesides- best hike in Southeast!
cabin was clean and neat. Host labeled everything in the kitchen so it was easy to find. Coffee filters,salt and pepper and baking and cleaning items were provided. Video helped explain the home and everything it offered. Very close to town
House is mostly one level which is great for older folks. Deck, both covered and open to enjoy a lovely long range view. Close enough to town to run to the grocery store yet nestled in a safe neighborhood. Been to Highlands many times and this is one the nicest houses I have rented.
The house is beautiful and very convenient with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths on one floor. The newly renovated back deck is awesome and a great place to hang and enjoy the view. Trista was a very helpful and accommodating host. She was quick to answer our messages and was super gracious when we needed to reschedule our trip. We would definitely stay again at the lovely Honey Bee Hideaway.
Clean property with Amazing views! Awesome Hostess was there every step of the way if we needed anything! We stayed there for a wedding event we were attending and it was perfect! Dog friendly and close to town.. Couldn’t ask for a better place to stay and will stay there again next time I’m in The Highlands, North Carolina.. Thank you so much!
Nice clean updated cabin with new back porch addition
The cabin was spotless and was decorated nicely with an original theme related to Honeybees. The area was in a peaceful neighborhood and the new back porch addition was a plus for the house. We spent lots of time sitting and looking at the great view. The owners put a lot of thought into making this cabin (inside and out) a peaceful retreat for us.
Excellent! The location is perfect. Trista, the host, is amazing. During our stay she was away on a family trip as well and still communicated with us immediately. Incredible host. It doesn’t get better. The property was lovely. Our family really enjoyed the trip. We plan on making it a Thanksgiving tradition.
Trista is an outstanding hostess. She seeks out feedback from her guests so that she can make the house more comfortable and inviting. There was a basket of snacks on the counter and a notebook on the coffee table with information about the house and things to do in Highlands. The best part of the house is its gorgeous deck and fireplace with a lovely view. I highly recommend a stay at the Honeybee Hideaway.
We spent four nights at Honeybee Hideaway with two kids and a dog for our spring break and we had the most fun and relaxing time. The house was super clean and had everything we needed and more. Trista was super helpful while we were making plans and very responsive during our trip. Our kids loved the mountain coaster and the public pool water slide, we hiked Glen Falls which was incredible, and ate at many restaurants in Highlands including Blue Bike (twice), Stubborn Bull and Ugly Dog. The view off the back porch is amazing for sunsets and the neighborhood is so peaceful and quiet but just a short drive to all the action in town. We will definitely be back!
This was the perfect home to relax and make memories! We spent all of our mornings and evenings on the back porch in front of the fire - stunning!. Every detail was thought of - nothing was overlooked. The location is so close to town, but you feel like you're away from the hustle and bustle when you get back to Honeybee Hideaway. The owners put a lot of love and thought into this home, and you can really feel it while you're staying there. Trista was very responsive and accommodating to our requests. In all my years on VRBO, this was my best experience to date!
Property was as described, very well kept with all the amenities! Grill was brand new, back deck as well. We barbequed steaks and chicken, really enjoyed the view.
House had everything we needed, had a 1 year old, had a pack n play, high chair and stroller. Trista our host kepted us well informed with a welcome video and correspondence throughout our stay. 5 minutes to downtown, couldn't have been easier.
Great get away in Highlands NC!
My husband and I took a last minute trip to Highlands, NC to see the fall colors. We were so lucky to find Honey Bee Hideaway. The location is perfect and so are the views from the back balcony porch. The road is hard-top and not difficult to drive. Trista is awesome! You can tell she really loves the area and is happy to share info. There are waterfalls and hikes nearby, and town is only a 5 min drive. We took the drive into Cashiers to explore some more and ate at The Cornucopia for lunch, which has a nice nostalgic feel. The road to Cashiers is winding but was very beautiful. We went to Silver Run Falls which was an easy trail walk to the falls.
I would highly recommend staying at this home. Thank you Trista for sharing it!
We recently took one last long weekend summer trip to Highlands in search of hiking, waterfalls, and ice cream every night! We found it all and more! Honey Bee Hideaway was the perfect home base for our family. GREAT location to everything, so easy to find and check into. Trista is hands down the best communicator I've ever dealt with in a STR. She was willing to help plan anything and quick to give recommendations for everything! Beautiful view from the back deck. When we weren't chasing waterfalls, we played games and watched movies at the house. Great for kids! Already recommending to friends with kids if they ever visit Highlands!
Thank you Trista for your hospitality and for sharing your home with others! Wishing you all the success with HBH!
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!
