    Awesome cozy cabin for your Highlands stay. Clean house, nice house, warm water, pretty much everything you need. The hot tub and decks were awesome for hanging out and star gazing, close to town and hiking as well. Would totally recommend!

    The house is beautiful and comfortable. We loved the decks. We didn’t have a chance to use the hot tub b/c it was serviced and not ready for use. The 4 acres that the house is on isn’t walkable or usable, as it is on a cliff. I believe the 4 acres is the cliff it sits on. The area that the house is in is very quiet and not busy at all. Such a peaceful comfortable stay! The kitchen is stocked with plenty of nice dishes and silverware, pots, pans, baking dishes, etc. I was impressed! Most short-term rentals have dingy housewares. 9/10

    This is a lovely and well appointed home. It has a great location almost half way between Highlands and Cashiers. We enjoyed the comfortable screened in porch, hot tub, and back deck rocking chairs with great view. The bath next to each bedroom was a plus!!I highly recommend this property.

    We loved staying at this lovely mountain home. It ended up just being two of us, but we chose it for the beautiful view and porches and the proximity to both Highlands and Cashiers. We hope to return and bring our 2 grown kids and their partners. It will be ideal, with what are essentially 3 master bedrooms with baths on 3 levels. The house is so well-stocked and comfortable. We so look forward to returning.

    Excellent location in a great mountain community. Very peaceful and friendly neighbors met while hiking the mountain. House was fully stocked and appreciated the Swifer! I usually travel with mine since we bring our Labrador retriever. Glad we could bring her! As a matter of fact, she didn't want to leave!Screened in dining area was a plus and hot tub area also screened in to be bug free. Open deck very nice for star gazing with nice view of the mountain.Michael and Caitlan very responsive to any questions or concerns.

The location was perfect — conveniently situated between Highlands and Cashiers, making it easy to explore both areas. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing mountain getaway!

    We had an amazing stay at this beautiful mountain home in Highlands, NC! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the hosts went above and beyond to ensure a comfortable and welcoming experience. The kitchen was impressively well-stocked—not just with the basics, but with thoughtful extras like paper towels, spices, cooking supplies and even a bottle of Chardonnay!The home itself was spotless, with spacious bedrooms and a great layout. Having a private bedroom and bath on each floor was perfect for our group, and the two living spaces made it easy for everyone to spread out and relax. The beds were super comfortable, and the porches on both levels were a fantastic touch—ideal for enjoying the peaceful mountain views, especially in warmer weather.Communication with the hosts was seamless, and they even checked in during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. Checkout requirements were minimal which was nice! If we had to be really picky, the lower-level tub/shower is quite deep—something to keep in mind for those with mobility concerns. But honestly, that’s just nitpicking.Overall, this was a fantastic rental, and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. Highly recommend!

    This cabin makes for the perfect getaway with each bed and bath on its own floor, it’s the perfect place to book for family and/or friends. The cabin is in a fantastic location right in between highlands and cashiers and within minutes to Whiteside Mountain where you can beat the crowd for a morning hike. Caitlan and Michael were wonderful hosts who provided incredible recommendations. I highly recommend schooling to book your mountain getaway here and will look forward to future stays here!
