Lakeside Cottage, on Whisper Lake with Gorgeous Lake & Mountain Views.

Lovely location, although the circuitous roads are a little tricky. Luckily, Eddy gave very specific directions. The house was very clean and comfortable with a lovely view of the lake. This is a great spot to get away from it all, and the property manager made himself completely available.

Nice house on a beautiful and peaceful lake; great for canoeing, resting, enjoying the quiet.

This house was awesome! It's enormous and could easily sleep 12. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable and there was plenty of bedding and towels (beach towels would be a nice addition).The views are spectacular and it is serene and quiet. We loved using the canoe, foosball table and games. It has a nice kitchen and we cooked several meals and used the grill. It has plenty of pots, pans, utensils, plates, etc - my only wish was that it had more simple staples like oil & vinegar, spices, etc. I would definitely stay here again!

We have had five visits to the Highlands, Cashiers, and Sapphire area over the past 6 years, to all different houses. This was the first time we have been disappointed with the accommodations. It was stated in previous evaluations that the parking was extremely limited. Only two cars can be parked without hanging out into the road. It is then 21 steps down from the parking area to the main level of the house. This was no fun with suitcases or tenants with orthopedic problems. The lighting at the top of the stairs did not function. That was a bit unsafe. Our biggest objection had to do with the ventless fireplaces. I tried one the first day and the house was filled with propane fumes. Propane vapors are definitely toxic. It was a great disappointment to spend a week in the mountains without being able to use a fireplace. Written instructions for the television would be helpful. Eddy, the property manager, had to go over this with us over the phone. The upper deck was nice for sitting, but there were only two high Adirondack chairs. There was a wrought iron table and chairs. There is not much of a view of the lake, due to the trees. You are able to see the orange and yellow kayaks standing up at the community area across the lake. There were no comfortable chairs on the lower deck, only two of the wrought iron chairs. The advertisement photos showed Adirondack chairs down there. There was no view at all from the lower deck. The housekeeping left a lot to be desired. There was mildew in the downstairs shower. I found a bunch of hair on the wall of it, when I took my first shower. When we plugged in cell phone chargers near the head of the bed, there was at least five years of dust and dirt. The middle level tub was wiped with a disposable Lysol wipe when we arrived. It came out black. The silverware drawer was dirty, containing dust, food, and hair. It had to be washed. A Jacuzzi tub is downstairs. We couldn’t figure out how to work it. There were no instructions for it. This is probably just as well, as who knows what would come out of the jets. The lights over that tub and in the bathroom closet weren’t functioning. The middle bathroom downstairs has a shallow tub, but no shower. It has been mentioned about the difficulty in getting down to the lake. It is quite steep and involves going down under a tunnel of rhododendrons. The dock is smaller than a twin bed. There was only one aluminum paddle. The dock is close to a spillway over a dam.

Very nice and large home. We enjoyed the beautiful views, ample space, and comfortable furniture. We are a family of five and it was terrific to have a bedroom and private bath for Mom and Dad and each of our mostly adult children. We enjoyed using the canoe and the reasonably priced amenity cards. The fitness center was well equipped and our youngest son enjoyed the arcade at the rec center. Property is close to parks and trails and other recreational activities. Mattresses are very firm, but that’s better than too soft. Propery could definitely accommodate a larger family, but we all liked having our own space. We cooked almost all of our meals in the kitchen. It’s not fancy, but it had everything we needed.

This is a great rental cottage and location. There is not a lot of room for off-street parking at the cottage (maximum of 1-2 vehicles), and access to the front door from the off-street parking involves a fairly steep set of steps. Otherwise, very pleased.

Wonderful
