Toxaway Falls, an impressive 150 foot waterfall, is located next to Highway 64 in North Carolina between Brevard and Cashiers. Toxaway Falls starts at Lake Toxaway and flows over an interesting almost striped looking bedrock in an incredible 240 feet elevation change before disappearing into the forest. Part of the waterfall is located inside Gorges State Park, the boundary line runs right through the middle of the river with the east side being part of the state park. The condo has the most spectacular view of this waterfall right from the back deck and master bedroom. Private trails lead you down to the bottom of the falls and into Gorges State Park.
The distinctive striped bedrock was formed when the granite rock was exposed for a large portion of the falls when the Toxaway Dam burst on August 13, 1916 after severe flooding. This flooded the Toxaway River with 24 inches of rain in 24 hours, causing the dam, which had no water level control, to break under the stress and sent more than 5 billion gallons of water crashing over the falls into South Carolina.
Lake Toxaway and the surrounding area is an outdoor Mecca for adventure: hiking, biking, exploring, fishing, nature watching, and more. Not only does Lake Toxaway boast an ideal location on Lake Toxaway, it is also poised in the midst of natural wonderland of state parks and national forests. Among the more celebrated are Panthertown Valley and Gorges State Park, both teeming with lush forests, trickling streams, gushing waterfalls, expansive ridgelines, and a variety of wildlife. Either are about a 15 minute drive or longer hike away from the property. There is truly adventure in every direction…out the door, down the path, over the hill, along the stream. The best way to explore this area is to pick a direction and go. Panthertown Valley, sometimes referred to as the Yosemite of the East, lies on the eastern continental divide, and boasts more than 25 miles of designated trails across 6,300 breathtaking, forested acres. This is a must for hikers, bikers, campers, and nature lovers in general. Gorges State Park has some of the most gorgeous mountain terrain in Western North Carolina, offering spectacular waterfalls, river gorges, sheer rock walls, and beautiful panoramic views. Rolling and winding across 7,500 scenic acres, Gorges is the only state park west of Asheville, and offers a dynamic 7,100-square foot Visitor Center.

My family and I had a fantastic stay at this property. It’s a beautiful location & the apartment is lovely. Everything was clean & cozy. Highly recommend!!!
The property had not been cleaned when we arrived. Called the property manager and he called back almost immediately. There was a mix up with our arrival day. He immediately offered to pay for us to go out to dinner while he cleaned. While it was disappointing to not be able to relax after our long drive, the situation was handled the best it could have been. Everything else was great. The view is beautiful. Great restaurants and beautiful hikes within minutes. This was our second visit and we will be back next year.
Overall a wonderful place to stay for ease! The managers were very gracious and accommodating. We enjoyed sitting on the porch admiring the waterfall. The condo was very cleaned and the bedding was comfortable. The location is convenient for hiking to waterfalls and there is a great Mexican restaurant located next store that doesn’t interfere with your serenity. We hope to be able to stay here again soon!
Condo was very clean. Very nicely decorated, beautiful view of water falls, and well equipped balcony for cooking and view. Would recommend to family and friends.
Great property
Property was just as described. Music was on when we entered. Awesome way to be welcomed into the condo. You could hear the waterfall from the living room. Great space. Will definitely look to rent again!
With a beautiful view in a beautiful location, this was one of the best weekends we’ve had away in a while… although it rained the entire time up until the morning we left! You have a direct overhead viewer of Toxaway Falls from the balcony and from the master bedroom (which also has access to the balcony). We loved the outdoor seating on the condo balcony over looking the waterfall, really comfy living room seating, and having a fantastic Mexican restaurant at the top of the parking lot you can simply walk to (don’t worry, you can’t hear or see it from the condo). Theres a really great variety of restaurants all within a 10 -12 minute drive, a great wine and specialty food shop within a five minute drive, great options for hiking, the lake, and Brevard, Cashiers and Highland villages are all within 15-20 minutes for shopping, fantastic art galleries, and more restaurants! We highly recommend the next door mexican restaurant practically on property (best quesadillas two of us had ever had), and also eating at the Grand Old Station only 5 minutes away - you will need to make reservations for this one, it’s so delicious, but limited seating (which just makes it more perfect) and soooooo worth it! If you visit in warmer months they have more outdoor seating as well though. Loved out time here!!
Condo was perfect for our family of 5 (2 parents and 22, 21 and 17 year old kids), plenty of room for us to hang. Waterfall view from balcony is awesome, and the community trails to the middle and base of the falls are really great too. 5 minute drive to Gorges State Park with awesome trails and more falls, and very easy drive to Cashiers, Highlands and Brevard. We came during the extreme cold snap (3 degrees when we got here), and there were lots of power outages. Condo has gas fireplace and gas grill, so even though we lost power for about 8-10 hours at one point we were still comfortable. Gareth was a great manager and very responsive. Only nit is the bear proof trash cans out front would freeze and couldn't open in the extreme cold. Opened fine when they were in the sun a while. Definitely would stay here again.
This is a beautiful, clean and quiet place to stay. Nice view of the waterfall. The rental process was super smooth. We wanted to add a couple days and they made it happen with no problems.
Upon arrival, our expectations were exceeded. We walked thru an immaculate fully stocked temporary home. I cannot even begin to share how amazing the waterfalls are in person. We spent a lot of time hanging out on the porch just in awe. Loved the Mexican restaurant within walking distance. Will stay again. Close to Breavrd, which is our new favorite small town. OP Taylor’s toy store is a must.
This is a beautiful condo carefully furnished to make you feel right at home and comfortable. Gorgeous view from the balcony.
We enjoyed our stay...our second year of coming to this location on Halloween weekend...very pretty scenery and nice accommodations.
Awesome view, perfect location.
Beautiful, clean, quiet, and convenient. Was Looking for a quiet getaway for a few days and found it. Slept with the windows open at night to the sounds of the cascading waterfall a few hundred feet away. Cashiers is just 9mi away. Lots of cute restaurants within 10mins or so. And VERY quiet property. It was a great stay.
The view of Toxaway Falls from the private balcony was awesome. In addition to the view, the sound of the water rushing over the falls was so peaceful and relaxing. My wife and I ate breakfast, lunch and dinner sitting on the balcony. For us, this vacation was a combination of relaxing and exploring some of the trails / falls. There are several beautiful hikes and waterfalls within a twenty minute or less drive. This meant that we didn’t have to spend hours driving to find a hike or waterfall. We would spend several hours out and about, then boom, within twenty minutes or so, we were back at the condo relaxing. The condo itself was very clean and well kept. There were plenty of toiletries and towels. The kitchen was also well stocked with pots, pans, utensils and drinking glasses / cups. Other than hearing the people in the unit above us walking around periodically, this was a very quiet unit. Nearby by amenities: There is a little country store (convenient store) about two miles down the road towards the west (go left out of the condo parking lot). You can also gas up your vehicle here. When you turn in to where the condos are located, there is a Mexican restaurant right there. We ate there one night and it was very good. I recommend the carnitas. Right next to the Mexican restaurant, there is a little plant store with other little hand crafted items. My wife purchased two plants (she has a plant addiction). There are other little cafes and markets close by, but since we didn’t go to those, I can’t offer a review. PET OWNERS: Luckily, our little fur baby will do his business just about anywhere outside, but most of the outside area is pretty steep. This may pose a difficult position for your pet to do its business. There is a little flat, grassy spot (with little rocks) up by where you park. This seemed to work out well for a potty spot. And the dumpster to dispose of your pet’s waste is in that general area.
Condo was nice and location is great!
Great place to stay and of course love the waterfall right outside the back porch.
Loved it!!
This was the perfect place for the two of us to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The view was amazing and like a previous review stated you can just able reach out at touch the falls. If you are looking for a place to get away, relax, enjoy nature, and each other, this is the place. We enjoyed our stay of much that we plan on returning.
This was our second stay at this property. The view of the falls is lovely. Open the door to the deck and the sound only enhances the view. We were pleased to see that the owner updated the living area with a pretty, comfortable sofa and new chairs. I do suggest the addition of privacy shades in the queen bedroom. This is a perfect location if you enjoy hiking in beautiful surroundings.
