Description

The Bungalow at Little Willow Falls sits perched over a Natural Spring, with a 70 foot Cascading Rock Shoal, Waterfall. The sound of the falling water and the rain falling on the Vaulted tin roof is so relaxing and peaceful. Within a few miles of The Bungalow is the town of Flat Rock, home to the Flat Rock Playhouse (the North Carolina State Theater), and the Carl Sandburg Home. Carl Sandburg was Abraham Lincoln's biographer, a U.S. Poet Laureate and a well known musician and journalist. The Playhouse puts on Broadway plays to packed out audiences throughout most of the year. The outdoor hammock off the side porch as well as the table, chairs and loungers next to the waterfall on the front deck are great places to relax. The Carl Sandburg Home is operated by the park service and has tours of the Home (which was left just as it was when he died), extensive walking trails and a running goat farm. If you blink, you might miss the adorable downtown of Flat Rock with its own gems which include a wood/fired pizza/bakery, an ice cream shop, a fine wine store, a fine art gallery, it's own Flat Rock Cinema theatre and many other shops. Flat Rock is just minutes from downtown Hendersonville (Main Street in Hendersonville is on the Historic Register) where you can find more shops and galleries. You will be very pleasantly surprised by the many excellent restaurants the area has to offer. Don't miss "Music on Main" and Street Dancing every Friday Night.

We will provide you with a wonderful list of suggestions when you come to stay, including the famous Apple Festival in the fall. Downtown Asheville, NC (30 minutes away) is full of exciting activities, including more great theaters, concerts, local music, art, fine crafts, organic tailgate markets and beautiful attractions. You won't want to miss a tour of the famous Biltmore Estate ( the largest family-owned estate in America), or the chance to have a drink at the Grove Park Inn-both have beautiful views, great restaurants and lots to see. Hendersonville, Flat Rock, and Asheville are all situated in the valley between the Blue Ridge and Smokey Mountains. Access to hiking, fishing, incredible golf courses, rock climbing, camping, waterfalls, lakes, whitewater rafting, tubing, boating, national forests, breathtaking views, and the Blue Ridge Parkway, Chimney Rock Park, and Lake Lure-just about anything you might want to enjoy in the outdoors is just minutes away. Whether you want an easy excursion in nature or are a backwoods hiker, the entire range of outdoor experiences are here. Wildlife, birds, plants and natural formations are everywhere. This area is abundant in things to do, places to see and incredibly enjoyable experiences . If you are interested in a longer excursion, Cherokee Reservation has an outdoor theater show, "Unto These Hills", a show about Cherokee Indian history. There are also historic sites, art, and Harrahs gambling casino. The Smokey Mountain National Park, Hot Springs, NC, and skiing are within a 1 1/2-2 1/2 hour drive.
