Junebug Asheville

on the wedding day and Charlene and her team worked above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible event. We can’t wait to stay at Junebug for our anniversary ❤️

g in the creek and laughing by the campfire. Our treehouse wedding was everything we imagined and more. Charlene, Kelly, and her team were fantastic and made everything go seamlessly on our special day. The attention to detail and simplistic beauty makes JuneBug one of a kind. If we could do it all over again, we would in a heartbeat.

emories of this special day. Our group of 22 had a fabulous time. As the parents we were thrilled to be in a beautiful place with such a great staff of workers so we could enjoy friends and family.

harlene did amazing helping me throughout the process and then Kelly and her team executed it so well!! My husband and I were able to enjoy our day with our closest people and relax and soak in the day with everyone.

et. Charlene made sure our wedding day ran smooth, and was in contact with me every step of the way. If I had any questions, or needed guidance during the wedding planning, Charlene was quick to respond, and always professional and helpful. On the day of the wedding, Charlene was there to make sure the whole day ran smoothly and was stress-free. We wanted an outdoor wedding venue where we could also spend quality time with our close friends and family - this place is perfect for it. We got to stay in the coolest retro (very comfortable) campers with our best friends. After the wedding reception was over, there was still more fun to be had by the big bonfire! What more could you ask for? Well, there's plenty more. There is a beautiful creek that runs throughout the property. Over the creek, they have strung hammocks to relax in, and there are two beautiful bridges crossing the creek on the property that are great for photos and for just enjoying the peaceful setting. The ceremony spot is a dream come true; right in front of the creek, with lovely wooden benches for your guests to sit on, and an arbor over the ceremony spot. This venue blew all of our guests away. I could not have imagined a better place to celebrate the best day of our lives. Thank you a million times to Charlene, Tom, and all of the JuneBug staff for the best wedding day ever!!!

es and setting. They have done a fantastic job!

lpful, I couldn’t have done it without her. She is organized and fun to work with. They both made our day run smooth and we would do it again, over and over. We had our close friends stay in the campers after the wedding and they absolutely loved the experience. The campers are immaculate and the property is gorgeous, perfectly maintained by Charlene and Tom. They take such care in everything they do and I would recommend them a thousand times over.

ting, even with some last minute changes. We had our welcome party, ceremony, and reception on site. We were also able to stay in the absolute cutest campers on site and had the most fun!! We will definitely be visiting on our anniversary (and probably more often)!

. Always responsive to questions and concerns, and on the day of the wedding Charlene’s schedule made everything run so smoothly! They take so much pride in this place and that you have an amazing experience. We feel so lucky to have found JuneBug! Our family continues to talk about how special it was to all stay together in the camper space and get ready there, and how special the place is in general. And I love that we could come back to stay for a night in a camper to relive that day! I could go on for days about why you need to see it. If you’re searching for a venue and feeling drawn to check it out - DO IT. It might end up being one of the best decisions you’ve ever made! 10/10 would recommend!

it was on the same gorgeous country road that my family first moved to when we moved to North Carolina. And when we arrived at Junebug it literally took our breath away. I’ve always dreamed of having wildflowers at my wedding. Junebug has a wildflower field as you enter the grounds. It’s right in front of a winding creek that runs through the property. Like what?! We came for the retro campers (which are also stunning) but the entire property is absolutely beautiful and the work and love that Charlene and her family have put into this place is unreal. We booked our wedding with Charlene about 10 minutes after leaving the venue, but not based on the property alone. My partner and I both got the best vibe from Charlene. She is such a warm and formidable presence. A big part of our decision was that we were honestly excited to plan an event with this wonderful human. The process of planning our wedding ourselves while working crazy schedules from the opposite coast was a lot. We also didn’t go the traditional route. We had a vintage county fair wedding with concessions, props, and a performer. We wanted every detail to be magical and uniquely us. So we had a LOT of questions. Charlene took the time to answer and address every question or concern over the course of a year. The florist, DJ, bakery and my hair and makeup artist all came highly recommended to us by Charlene and completely exceeded our expectations. The day of, I woke up expecting to feel nervous and stressed but I felt completely calm. I had every confidence that Charlene had everything under control. Or would put out any fires in case something went wrong. There wasn’t a single hitch the entire day (1-10pm). Charlene’s energy and calm was a huge comfort. She even helped me button up the million buttons going down the back of my dress…the one thing I didn’t think of ahead of time lol. The wedding ran like a well oiled machine and we threw her more than a few curve balls. Basically she rocks. If you are looking for the prefect outdoor venue in WNC with a venue planner who truly wants to make your day perfect, this is the place. Big thank you to Charlene, Tom and their daughter Katie for helping us make our wedding day the most perfect and magical day. Love, Katie & Jason

y to work with when it came to making that decision, and throughout the entire process. Honestly, Nich and were happy to have another year to work with Charlene and all of our other amazing vendors. Charlene and Tom put so much care into Junebug and the beautiful land that holds such a special place. Each time we met with Charlene out at Junebug, she would have the biggest smile on her face and was usually coming out of a long day tending to her beautiful flower garden....which is absolutely incredible!..and Tom was always hard at work continuing to make Junebug the lovely place it continues to grow to be. I loved the ability tp be super creative with all that this venue offers. Charlene was a built in day-of coordinator with renting the venue, and she was outstanding every step of the way. Things went so smoothly and she had a plan for everything and made sure everything was where it needed to be. The fact that this venue allows for 24 hour rental is another wonderful perk. Getting to rent the campers and be on this beautiful property with the closest of our friends and family was truly magical. It was the perfect place to start the day before the big event. Getting ready in the campers was a dream come true. We truly felt like Junebug was the place that fit everything we love. We had the perfect weather on a mid September day and had the best day of our lives happen here! Truly. My husband and I are not ones to say that about most things really...but its been a couple of months now and we both reflect on what a perfect day it really was. The fire after the dancing and reception portion of the night was the perfect touch. It was such nice way to wind down from a long day and we felt like we really got to connect more with our guests that we don't get to see as often as we would like to and to those who traveled a long way to be there. The next morning, Charlene and Tom brought breakfast items and coffee down for the guests staying in campers and their sweet cat, Norman, decided to hangout with us! Tom and Charlene were back at Junebug bright and early cleaning up the venue and the campers getting ready for that days event. Truly, these two are such hardworking and creative people. All of our guests and family were so inlove with Junebug and all there was to do and see on this beautiful property. We were so blown away at how beautiful and lovely this entire experience was and we will cherish it forever. We would give Junebug 10/5 stars if we could! Thank you for everything, Charlene, Tom and the rest of the amazing staff at Junebug!

Oregon, and she was so helpful both virtually and in-person. Our guests loved the venue too, and they loved staying in the trailers. Book your wedding here and have a unique experience with professional, helpful, and kind staff :)

s were taken care of. Not only does this venue include so many things (chairs, tables, tent, and SO much more) but the support and guidance from Charlene is invaluable. Throughout the entire weekend everything was taken care of and stress free. Charlene and Tom have thought of absolutely everything to make your wedding a one of a kind, and incredibly special event and we are so grateful to have found such a perfect place to get married. If you are looking for a unique and beautiful wedding venue that guests will remember forever, this is the place for you!

he setting, and the 24 hour rental of the vintage RVs was perfect for our wedding party. Highly recommended!!!!!

. We wanted a comfortable, intimate, easy wedding and that is precisely what we got!

Cannot recommend them enough!

was wonderfully organized, helpful and experienced and everything went smoothly. I highly recommend this venue to others. Nancy D

with care, and their reassurance that "we got this" on every question really helped me, my hubby and our families and friends settle in and enjoy every moment. It was truly one of the best and most beautiful weekends of our lives. One piece of advice...if it's going to be chilly, find and adjust your camper thermostat before you start celebrating!! ;)

ey opened a week ahead of schedule for us, due to scheduling conflicts with our family. We were so thrilled. Also, they let us come back after our wedding for our "Day after Shoot." Charlene is great with the details and jumps in wherever an extra hand is needed, all while staying so calm and grounded. The bartenders were so fun, and felt like an extension of our party, and all the campers were clean and ready for guests ahead of schedule. Also, they had the fire ready for us when the music ended. Booking Junebug was hands down one of the best decisions we made in the wedding process!

thinking of our families and how they'd want to be a part of this special moment in our lives, so I made an account on The Knot to start searching! Within minutes, I found the Junebug Asheville treehouse by looking for something, outdoors, affordable, and intimate. And their treehouse exceeded all of those expectations! Charlene and her team took care of the decorations, food vendor organization, flowers, cake ordering, and more. If you're a more relaxed couple who's looking for an intimate setting for your wedding, this is the place! Flowers grown on-site was such a special touch and the day-of team goes above and beyond to make sure you're not worrying about anything. The one thing I wish I had done differently was share our cocktail hour plans + hot cocoa bar ideas with the Junebug team in advance so they didn't have to deal with as many family members asking questions day-of and not knowing the answers. I'd definitely recommend keeping your cocktail hour appetizers very simple because there's limited table space for this to be, but since their team is so efficient switching over the treehouse from ceremony to reception, your guests will be happy with drinks and small snacks for that transition time. We did our first look at our Airbnb beforehand and most people had already seen me, so I had to walk up to the bridal suite past all of our guests. If you prefer to not be seen until you walk down the aisle, you'll need to get there earlier than all guests because the spiral staircase is the only way to get up there. Also, the parking lot is tight for guest parking, so just inform guests in advance! We forgot to and some of our family could've brought their smaller vehicles to accommodate. I say all of that to just help in the planning process because this was the venue of our dreams and I want others to experience it in the best way possible!

anning on coming back to celebrate our love. The campers are absolutely amazing, and the three house is to die for. I definitely recommend making an appointment with Charlene to check out the venue, you will likely fall in love and set the date the same day like my partner and I.

with us towards creating the perfect, perfect day. Kelly, our coordinator was amazing and made us feel very comfortable and confident that all would go well and it did! She executed our last minute touches so beautifully and we could not be more appreciative. The treehouse itself was gorgeous! The light was amazing and added a magical touch to everything. The flowers were beyond beautiful and brought everything together. Everyone had an amazing time and really enjoyed themselves. I cannot say enough good things about Junebug and highly highly recommend!

arlene made it easy for us - and we even got to spend a few nights at JuneBug a few months before the wedding to get the real feel for it. Our family and guests were all blown away by the beauty of JuneBug, the layout and convenience of the campers, and how well Tom and Charlene have everything planned to make our day perfect. Big thanks to everyone at JuneBug who made our wedding more perfect than we could have ever imagined!

and we knew things were in good hands during the months of preparation. We didn't see the venue until 2 days before our big day. We knew we made the right decision immediately upon seeing the grounds and the Treehouse itself. The Treehouse is magical. It is truly impressive and beautiful. It has some of the most perfect views of the mountains. It was perfect for the magical vibe we wanted for our Harry Potter inspired wedding. Everything was perfect, despite the fact that it rained the whole time (precautions to keep things dry were already put in place before we arrived). The flowers were gorgeous, the cake and food were delicious and the set up was lovely. Our wedding day coordinator, Kelly, did an amazing job making everything run smoothly. It was the best experience! Many thanks to Charlene and Tom and all their staff!

dition, the tree house is AMAZING, the ceremony area is simple and sweet, the playground and tractor are fun and picture worthy, the campfire is the perfect ending to a long evening, and the cat Norm is a great character. I can't wait to go back for our anniversary or for a quick weekend get away. My memories from our wedding will last a lifetime and I have Junebug to thank for that. I can't imagine any other place I would want to tie the knot. I highly suggest this venue. Charlene is not only a coordinator, but a problem solver, a baby holder, a calming voice for nerves, and has all the details and ideas you need as a bride who needs direction, all with a pleasant and welcoming smile on her face. Thank you again for making our day and starting our next adventure off with the perfect beginning.

l to find a venue that catered to small weddings. Charlene and her team took care of everything and were such fun to work with. We stayed in the campers with our guests and it was easily one of the coolest experiences we’ve had. Highly, highly recommend.

mmendation is the music was difficult to hear so that might need to be adjusted.

ce we had. From start to finish, Charlene was always available to answer any questions we had, and her efforts on the day of the wedding made the entire process run seamlessly. Our day was perfect and just as we hoped due to the amazing staff at Junebug Asheville. The event space and grounds are beautiful and all our guests cannot stop raving about their experience at our wedding. It was truly a night to remember and we are forever grateful that we chose this location for our special day.

made me feel like a crazy bridezilla or that my ideas were crazy. The venue is GORGEOUS and every single guest couldn't stop talking about how it felt like an intimate party even though there were 100 people there. My aunts are already talking about planning a family reunion here! If you're at all wanting a wedding that's alternative but still completely beautiful, I can't recommend JuneBug enough.

iding my flowers and cake Charlene was there holding my hand. When a loved one passed away she was empathetic, caring and beyond flexible, in a constantly changing situation she maintained clear communication with us at every step. We ended up switching from the larger venue by the charming flower field and stream, to the treehouse and have absolutely no regrets about our lovely micro wedding. The fact that Charlene was pretty much a wedding planner was the biggest relief in the world, especially when you’re trying to do it all yourself, I felt like I could go to her with anything. Both my husband and I were involved, but with how busy our lives are we loved that we were able to trust Charlene to make our dreams come true. The biggest surprise was when Junebug was chosen to be featured on Good Morning America, which is a huge honor, and then an even bigger surprise when Junebug chose us as their couple. It was an immediate yes as there was no doubt in my mind that while this was a big deal for Junebug and their future, there would be no compromise on the intimacy of my wedding. Everything went exactly as we imagined, and Charlene took so much care in making sure the integrity and uniqueness of our wedding was upheld. The all-star moment was when I got sick before dinner from lack of food and running myself ragged that day and days leading up to (I also hiked a mountain at 4am the morning of my wedding so that didn’t help). But Tom jumped into action finding my mother everything she needed to make a family drink recipe for nausea, which included driving to the office to get boiling water, lime juice and salt. It immediately worked and I was so incredibly thankful to continue to enjoy my special day thanks to the Pagano family. Not to mention Tom filming our entire ceremony and vows, because in all the chaos we forgot to bring a tripod. Going absolutely above and beyond their job scope, you can 100% trust Charlene and Tom with your big day! Junebug completely delivered on every promise, and our guests raved about the location, the cake, and the staff. My husband and I both agree, if we could do it again, we wouldn’t change a thing and it will always be a day we will relive in our hearts over and over again. Our wedding was straight out of a fairytale gorgeous, suspended in the trees with mountain views and delicate string lighting. What more could you want? The amount of gratitude we have for Charlene and Tom is endless! Thank you so much for being the amazing people you are!

out on the property. Charlene thank you for the best day of my life.

th away. It is a venue that has everything you could want/need, and its beauty speaks for itself. From the campers to the stream with hammocks and a bridge, to the field of wildflowers and the gorgeous built-in arbor and benches, to the tree house where we did our first look, June Bug does not cease to amaze! And just when you think it’s all too good to be true, you meet the owners, Charlene and her husband Tom. They are so sweet and down to earth, and you can tell by their faces and the tone of their voice how passionate they are about their magical oasis. Charlene made everything easy from day one. She explained everything, she was more than accessible and so transparent and always willing to answer questions. She told us that she is the day of coordinator for the wedding but really, she is so much more than that! She coordinated everything with our vendors and came up with a day of schedule and handled everything so beautifully and because of her our most special day was incredible and seamless. My wife and I could not stop smiling and kept saying to each other how our wedding was even more amazing than we could have ever imagined! Every single person that came to our wedding was blown away by June Bug and it’s just the kind of place that people will never forget. Our wedding was an actual fairy tale, and we feel so insanely blessed that we chose June Bug and met Charlene. We could not be happier and have nothing but good things say! If you are looking for a dream venue near Asheville, then you’d be crazy to not choose June Bug!

ganized but calm and easy to work with. We ended up having our wedding AND rehearsal at JuneBug and everyone was so glad to spend so much time there.

ndors she has worked with in the past. Deciding to go with them was a great help because they knew what would look great at the venue. Wishing I could do it all over again!

e it special. Highly recommend!

ur rehearsal dinner and wedding at JuneBug and the venue owner, Charlene, helped us organize it all. We planned our destination wedding during COVID restrictions which meant that our vendors were booked sight unseen purely on Charlene’s recommendation, and everything from the music to the food turned out better than we could have imagined! She made sure to ask us all the event questions we hadn’t even thought of, and coordinated all of our vendors after we booked them which made our wedding day seamless. We can’t recommend JuneBug enough, and our guests are still talking about how much fun they had in such a unique setting!

very responsive to our requests and the day of went smoothly under her guidance. We had a excellent small band (Melonbelly) and photographer (Beautiful life photography) and she coordinating seamlessly with those vendors despite not working with them before. We would highly recommend working with Charlene and Tom at their unique treehouse setting or at their larger venue. Their property is gorgeous and they take excellent care of it.

oo! They were so accommodating and it really helped make the whole event that much better. And we cannot speak highly enough about the treehouse itself!! So unique, so beautiful, and it felt so special. The rope swing was an excellent touch! If you are having a small wedding, have it here!

ly the treehouse location for pictures but also down at the creek. We did a micro wedding with only 20 people and it was so sweet and intimate. Everything was so well organized and the planning was so easy thanks to Charlene. The food and cake were delicious too. I cannot say enough about how amazing the whole experience was!

ext away with my questions leading up to the wedding, which I really appreciated. The dinner & cake were delicious, flowers gorgeous, and atmosphere intimate & stress free. I will also never forget the small gestures from the Junebug staff that made our night perfect, and helped family & friends. All of our guests said it was the best wedding that they had ever been too!

that they would take care of us. Their treehouse is one of the most beautiful small wedding venues in WNC!!

th Charlene - it was perfect. We felt it. We had no idea it could get even better! We arrived for our complimentary stay to tour the property and meet with vendors and feel even MORE in love with the venue and also Charlene and her husband. We’ll spare you all the details leading up to the actual day, but know that I emailed Charlene an ENDLESS amount of times and she very graciously responded to every. single. email - and was incredibly helpful. Fast forward to our wedding weekend and all I have to say is Charlene needs a cape, STAT. She and her team were on every detail and helped me (Type A / control freak) release some control and roll with the weekend as it arrived hot and fast. I was definitely stressing out at some point and she made a point to ask me if I was okay and if I needed help. They also started a fire just before our exit and brought beer over as we wrapped up the night with our closest pals. SO thoughtful! She was the BEST wedding venue owner AND wedding coordinator ever. Special shout out to her staff - in particular the bartenders - that got to experience the partiers in our families. Thanks for your patience and for keeping the juices flowing! Our friends, local to WNC, as well as NYC, loved staying in the restored campers! The bathroom camper are still being talked about, haha! And the morning-after breakfast was delicious and very much appreciated by all. I could spend all day writing about how wonderful our experience was. If you are on the fence about Junebug - JUST DO IT. You won’t regret it.

this was going to be the most memorable day. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, her true wedding-planner side came out. She thought of every little detail! On the day of the wedding, it was more than we could’ve ever imagined. It was the most beautiful set up tucked away in the woods. Everyone was so incredibly nice & generous. So many people have asked me about our venue since posting our photos on social media, it really is a one-of-a-kind place. This is the wedding that nature-lovers dreams are made of.

— unbelievably beautiful. As an out-of-town couple, we chose this venue based off of the pictures and videos. Seeing it in person right before the wedding only made it more magical. Pictures and videos truly do not capture how unique and special this hidden gem is. Next, I can’t speak highly enough of Charlene and Tom. From our first meeting with Charlene, I knew she was extremely organized, thoughtful, and the person I wanted in charge of my wedding. Charlene and Tom treated my husband and I as good friends, we never felt as though we were just "another client.” Before we booked the wedding, my dad ended up being hospitalized due to Covid-19 for several weeks. They held our date during this time and were so patient and flexible with us as we navigated this challenge. Charlene and Tom have this perfect balance of laid-back and organized, which really put me at ease throughout the weekend. All of my questions were answered and all of the details were taken care of. For someone who gets overwhelmed with wedding planning, having Charlene handle flowers, catering, cake, music, tables/chairs, decorations, schedules, etc. was a dream!! I was still provided with choices and got to have significant input in these areas as well. Truly, I had minimal stress because of Charlene and Tom and my wedding felt personal and special — not at all generic or “one-size-fits-all”, despite being all-inclusive. This is difficult to achieve, and JuneBug nailed it!!! Additionally, Charlene is so familiar with the area and provided me excellent recommendations, including our photographer Tessa Woolworth from Folk & Wayfarer, who is amazing and far exceeded our expectations. The location of the treehouse and JuneBug is perfect. I loved being tucked away up in the mountains and enjoying the beautiful summer evening. For our rehearsal dinner, we were able to experience downtown Asheville and visit all of the amazing breweries. We loved it so much, we may end up moving to NC one day! The cake was exactly as I requested and so beautiful and delicious! The BBQ was delicious, all ready to go for guests. The flowers were gorgeous, all of the small details really enhanced our special day. Tom even pulled out his drone and got some shots during the wedding! I could go on and on about how blown away I was. I will never forget my wedding weekend and how truly special it was. The treehouse at JuneBug exceeded my expectations in every way, and I cannot fully express how amazing the entire experience was! You will not regret getting married at JuneBug! My husband and I are already talking about wanting to come back and visit : )

ast minute dash, she managed to deliver the quickest pair of scissors a bride has ever asked for as she got ready in the final 20min before the ceremony, saving the day. If Charlene can pull off such an enchanting wedding at the end of a pandemic and beginning of a new busy wedding season, we can only imagine what she’s capable of in any normal year! The greatest benefit of having a wedding at JuneBug Retro Resort, is that you can always go back to visit and just stay in a camper for a vacation! For adventurous and wild souls alike, JuneBug Retro Resort is the perfect combination of quirky delight and tasteful uniqueness. This venue is in a world of its own, nestled in the scenic mountains of Asheville NC. If you are looking for memories to last a lifetime, the best hammocks over a creek, the comfiest beds to ever exist in a camper and a wedding that makes you feel like a forest princess with flowers in your hair, look no further! ​Last but certainly not least, Charlene is an extremely experienced coordinator who functions with the utmost urgency while maintaining a cool, calm and collected personality. We look forward to revisiting this wonderful haven in the mountains and are eternally blessed to have the honor of getting married here. 12/10 get married at JuneBug Retro Resort!

harlene was a huge help and all of her vendor recommendations were spot on! You can tell that Tom and Charlene have put their hearts and souls into this amazing property and will bend over backwards to make sure their couples have a seamless wedding day. We had our first look in the treehouse and it made for such a special experience. All of our guest are still raving about this wonderful day!

his would go on forever. From the campers to the creek, the bridge to the treehouse, it’s gorgeous. It’s difficult to hold a candle to the site itself, but Charlene does. She’s the owner and day of coordinator for Junebug. She was my rock for the whole process. I was able to enjoy my wedding because I had absolute faith in her to hold everything down. She is such a treasure and I am so grateful. We plan on making multiple visits in the future. 🥰

wers are perfect and then there is the treehouse. The wedding that belongs in fairytales. I knew I wanted a micro-wedding and Junebug seemed perfect. I called Charlene and she told me how at this time they only had done a mock wedding and we would be the first real wedding. With that even though they've done plenty of larger weddings down at the bottom of the farm I expected some sort of hiccups. It's only fair being we would be the first wedding. But let me tell you, this was the most amazing experience ever. I've been married before, seen alot of weddings and nothing compares to the experience and talent that Charlene and Tom have in creating the most amazing wedding experience for the bride and groom and our guest. She literally took care of everything. The decorations she provides are so adorable and perfect, the lighting felt like we were eating with fairies. Talking about eating, the food vendors were out of this world. North Carolina has amazing BBQ but this food, as everyone ate I could hear my guest saying how amazing it was. And the cake... Well there won't be any frozen cake for our first anniversary. Being married outdoors you have to expect there can be some weather and they were prepared with canopies. But when we expected downpours before I could call Charlene in a mess of what to do, she had plan B already planned and prepared. Thankfully we didn't have to use plan B but she was on top of it. The staff they have are just as on it as they are and truly I can't say enough of how amazing this experience was, and if you want a unique wedding that your guest or you and your partner will never forget this is the place. I know this is a long review but there is so much more I could say. There was not one thing I would change. I can't wait to see all the weddings that will happen in this adorable treehouse in the future.

weekends ago and booked JuneBug precisely a year prior. Charlene was helpful every step of the way. We opted to hire her as our day-of coordinator but she went far above and beyond her duties. She was a sounding board for all of my ideas, my Google for all my tiny questions, and assured me constantly that everything would, in fact, get planned and happen according to those plans. We spent the weekend at JuneBug a few weeks prior to go over schedule, plans, etc. and it felt more like meeting up with a friend than a standard business interaction. All that to say, she also perfectly balances business and professionalism - she is concise, punctual, and responsive.

process, gave great advice, but was never pushy about what we should or shouldn’t do. She was also so incredibly kind during our reception. Even though she was busy making sure everything ran on time, she came over to me multiple times just to check on me and make sure I didn’t need anything and was having a good time. It was really so considerate and special. It ended up raining on our wedding day, but I was never worried because I knew we were in good hands with Charlene. And I think JuneBug was particularly beautiful in the rain! If you want a classic Asheville venue and to work with genuinely kind people who love what they do, JuneBug Retro Resort is the place!

, and use such a unique, well-run facility to host our wedding. Charlene handles most of the communication and was also our day of coordinator. When it comes to getting what we needed done when we needed it, she was an absolute rock star. We had a very last minute near-catastrophe when it came to our wedding cake, and she stepped in and managed to save the day, and made sure everything went off without a hitch. We couldn't ask for more from her. Junebug itself is super cool! The whole vintage vibe with the campers is very unique and relaxed. There's even a playground for kids (and adult kids) with all the old-school metal playground toys! Everything is super clean, neat, and well-organized. I would recommend Junebug to anybody.

hey made sure everything was perfect for our special day. The campers were fun, clean, and ready for us as soon as we got there. I would recommend this place for any special event or fun weekend getaway.

ing your day-of planner, as there was no way the set up, and day would have run as efficiently as it did without her. All of our guests have told us how much they enjoyed the venue and how unique it was, and the pictures are absolutely gorgeous. From the amazing restored, vintage campers, to Charlene's beautiful garden, to the reception and cocktail tents-everything was more than we could have ever hoped for for our wedding!

f course went and looked at 3 other venues in Asheville but my heart kept leaving towards JuneBug. I went to see the venue in March so the leaves were gone the venue was not wedding ready but I could I picture everything I wanted without all of the trees and flowers in bloom or the wedding tents up. Charlene the owner, she was my girl, she was so on top of everything. From start to finish! I could call, text or email her and she was on it. Making everything as easy as possible for me. When it got down to crunch time her husband was the BOMB.COM, Tom! Nicest guy ever, so accommodating and easy going. Charlene was my coordinator the day of the wedding and WOW! The compliments I got for the flow of EVERYTHING from the rehearsal to EVERYTHING on the day of the wedding. The campers were awesome! Our wedding party as well as my husband and myself stayed in them the night of the wedding. Tom and Charlene started an after party bonfire and brought all remaining beer and wine (post wedding) to the bonfire pit in a bucket on ice for the entire wedding party to indulge as we spent the last bit of time with our wedding party having more fun until time for bed! Tom and Charlene recently built this amazing tree house on the property! Tom took my mother in law and I 2 days before the wedding to see the tree house! I almost died and went to heaven! I asked if Ryan and I could do our first look up there.. Even with a bit of a construction zone they cleaned it up and Ryan and I were the first couple ever to be up there! It was so special to me. Our first look over the mountains and secluded up in the woods in a tree house! I could go on and on and on and on. The airstream bar with beer taps, the creek! The bridge I walked across and my daddy met me at the end to walk me down tow aisle. This venue gets 5 starts all across the board. I wish I could do it all over again! My husband and I want to rent out the venue for one of our anniversaries in the future and get our families together for another weekend there! JuneBug Retro Resort will have a special place in my heart for life. If you don’t get married there you’re missing out. #Bestweddinghandsbrown <3 A&R

mazingly genuine, welcoming, and responsive throughout the entire process. They helped us find reliable vendors and helped ease any stresses we had before, during, and after the event. Being able to stay in the campers the night of the wedding was so perfect and allowed us to spend more time with our friends who came a long way to see us. I can't say enough good things about this place and we hope to come back and visit for years to come.

he owners. We engaged Charlene as the event coordinator and every detail was considered and executed perfectly throughout the day. The campers are authentically restored (even the radios work!) and were a treat for ourselves and our guests. We live overseas and were able to contact and communicate with Charlene and Tom at any time, allowing us to plan our wedding with minimal stress and full confidence. Their knowledge and recommendations for local vendors, that they have worked with previously, helped provide a seamless event run by professionals who truly care about their clients. Ending the wedding day around the campfire with our friends and family was magical. We highly recommend inviting a friend with a guitar! JuneBug is a full service and genuinely unique venue that our friends and family will be talking about for years to come! We can't wait to come back for an anniversary trip in the future.

ing creek (very auspicious in Feng Shui!). We had close to 200 people comfortably seated under the gorgeous double high peak tent during dinner (this tent would look beautiful even in a parking lot) and everybody boogied hard on the brand new dance floor. Our guests that weren't big on dancing were often spotted walking the grounds and discovering all the other charms of this property including the meticulously kept campers and retro playground. Tom and Charlene were amazing and a huge help with everything leading up to our wedding day and without them the big day would have been much more stressful. They truly did make our wedding day dreams come true!

lready site was awesome. The bar cart is is also amazing, with and ice machine, taps and coolers. The grounds and accommodations were in superb condition. The wood benches in the ceremony area, cocktail deck, and fire rings are beautiful. Everyone enjoyed the style and comfort of the retro campers. We never felt restricted or cramped. The renovated bathhouse camper is perfect when you have a crowd getting ready. The service was impeccable and I am so thankful we chose June Bug! Charlene and Tom are wonderful people. Lastly, June Bug is close enough to Asheville so that guests can stay in the city or see the sites. But much of our family found well priced rental houses in Weaverville and loved the small town. We had a country side wedding while being close to town with resources and accommodations.

ion was great, and the entire wedding from planning stage to saying "I do!" went off without a hitch. They both are great at running the show, behind the curtain so you are able to fully relax with your family and enjoy the evening. We utilized the campers as well as their newly renovated "bar cart", and everyone spoke so highly of the entire aesthetic vibe. We couldn't have been happier, and as Asheville natives we are proud to say that we would love to come back and share more special moments at Junebug with them. Thank you for an amazing wedding experience!

g they have ever been to and I think the majority of that success is because of the venue. The airstreams are so cute, the land is beautiful and there were so many details like the firepits, stream, and playground that made this venue so much fun. My husband and I want to relive this experience over and over again. I HIGHLY recommend this magical place.

or the weekend. It was like grown-up summer camp. Adults and kids all had a blast. The property is beautiful and can handle a large wedding and reception, but would also be great for a smaller event. Luckily the rain let up after our guests began arriving, but they have permanent event tents on-site, so we would have been fine either way. No need to rent tables and chairs, they've got 'em and they're nicer than an event rental's stuff. I can't really say enough about the owners/managers Charlene and Tom. They were easy to work with and will be as hands-on or hands-off as you need. Charlene was great at coordinating with our caterer and various other event rental folks. You can tell that they've put their heart and soul into June Bug, and they've created something really special.

ony and there's plenty of parking. There are designated places for the wedding party to get ready and to stay after the wedding.

ing venue, spitting out the same wedding weekend after weekend, and that Charlene was so incredibly personable and helpful. The property is pristine and the trailers are each unique and beautiful. We held our rehearsal dinner and wedding under the tent and stayed with our wedding party in the trailers (they loved the unique lodging!). Everything was on-site which made for the perfect laid-back weekend with family and friends. We really enjoyed playing badminton and corn hole and sitting by the campfire in the evenings. I wish I could give 10 stars for JuneBug (instead of just 5). I can't stress enough how helpful Charlene was throughout the planning process as my husband and I live in Colorado and were planning from afar, and my parents (who are in Asheville) were planning everything in person. She kept us all sane, and also won the award for fastest 100 yard dash when she raced back to get the bouquet I realized I had forgotten in the bridal trailer right as I was about to walk down the aisle. We're already dreaming of an anniversary trip back so we can stay at June Bug again!

venue we visited and we wasted time checking out at least 8 more in person. The setting was perfect for a gathering of friends and family - everyone felt welcome for the entire weekend. Awesome value for all this venue has to offer and Charlene is such a pleasure to work with. She is able to give great advice throughout the entire planning and execution of the wedding. Charlene always brought calm to any situation during the planning stage and I never had to worry during the event. She always has your back!

ersonable, easy to work with, and really contributed to the success of our day. They offer gorgeous options of ceremony and reception site, with a solid contingency plan (something that was very important to us). A major plus - our wedding party got to stay on site in their vintage campers, which was not only fun but incredibly convenient. You will not regret booking with these wonderful people!

tunity to be transported back in time and stay in fully restored vintage campers. The best, and most important part in my opinion, is the topnotch service and flexibility from the owners and staff so that all your wedding day dreams come true!

a river running through and an organic farm onsite. Then there's the owners... do you know those people who just kind of glow?? Charlene is that person, I think she found the thing that gives her great joy and it shows in how hard she works for it. I'm happy to have gotten to know her. And Tom, Tom is that level-headed guy that when a bride is having a minor freak-out he is there to rationally fix something and soothe the energy. I don't know if I could thank them enough. As for the wedding, every bride must know that there are ups and downs, but I can tell you the one thing that never had me questioning was the venue, and the spouse, of course! There is a lovely bridge over the river, Tom & Charlene placed tiki torches down the length of which and illuminated the water at night during our reception, there were fires tended for our guests riverside and in the romantic alcove above the new cocktail deck. The place starts to feel like home so quickly. Best wishes to Charlene and Tom and to any future couple marrying there, you won't regret it!

nd everything, including the Friday night rehearsal dinner, was on site. The bridal party stayed in the trailers. The venue is gorgeous (we had fun telling all of our friends we were getting married in a trailer park, but in actuality the venue is much nicer). It's hard to write a review because there's so many positive things I want to say about Charlene and how nice it was working with her - we originally set a May 2019 date but had to move the date up to October 2018 due to an illness in the family, and Charlene was just amazingly accommodating and helped us find great vendors/caterers/etc. and was on site the whole weekend helping facilitate a magical event...she even sprinted across the property when the bride realized she left her bouquet of flowers right before walking down the aisle! 12/10 stars.

e these trailers is outstanding. The modern touches in the bath house are exceptional. This is an amazing place for a wedding and reception. My Husband and I chose those place for the serenity and to be able to have a 50s themed wedding. Many options for holding an outdoor ceremony, extremely well kept grounds, a large tent for the pre-and post receptions and a beautiful bar area surrounded wtih nature. The website can not convey the true beauty and awesomeness of this place. We HIGHLY recommend JuneBug Retro Resort for your consideration. The cost of the venue includes so much more than you woudl expect - use of the facilities, the trailers, the event area, bar area and green space. The owners Tom and Charlene have brought toghether a quaint, comfortable and fun little piece of heaven in North Carolina.

this is your place!

nicured landscaping around the campers that it would be beautiful in the summertime; we secured a date to have our wedding there. Charlene was helpful and responsive throughout our planning process, anticipating needs and offering reasonable solutions which saved us time and money. Key benefits of having our wedding at JuneBug were two included tents, the ability to purchase and bring in our own alcohol, and being able to rent all ten campers to have our wedding party stay overnight with us. Our wedding vision came to life at JuneBug, and we could not have been happier!

ng unforgettable events and providing genuine, kind customer service is evident in every interaction we ever had with the two of them. Tom and Charlene were so professional and so accommodating throughout the entire booking and planning process. Charlene, the individual we mostly ended up communicating with, never made us feel like we were an inconvenience and she always shared in so much of our excitement with us. Our guests were blown away by the property and the precious vintage campers. Everyone kept remarking on how unique and original the venue was...it made my husband and I elated, because we never wanted a copy-cat, cookie-cutter wedding. My husband and I and our entire bridal party ended up staying in the campers after our wedding. Everyone was pleasantly surprised with how spacious and comfortable the campers were. My husband has a lot of tall friends and none of them had any problem staying comfortable in their camper at night. All of our bridal party was blown away by the beautiful bath house that Tom and Charlene had custom made for June Bug. My husband and I are already brainstorming an anniversary party back at June Bug, because we want an excuse to host another event!!!!
