Set on 6 lush acres w waterfall pool, a small creek, and in a gated, safe, quiet neighborhood (with quiet hours enforced).. Alpenglow Falls was created to set a new standard for mountain luxury - View, water, fire, hike in/out, all en-suite bathrooms, king beds, open spaces, the sounds & smells of the 6 private acres of forest surrounding you and, unbelievably, just 1.2 miles to Buck's coffee from the neighborhood. Its privacy and location offer the best of natural surroundings while being close to groceries, restaurants and shopping!

The home was designed to face EXACTLY 291 degrees southwest to focus on the gorgeous view of famous Whiteside Mountain, where you see the perfect sunrise & sunset colors beaming back at you from its peak while you settle into any number of spaces created to engulf you in fresh mountain air, sights, & the sounds of natural water flowing everywhere..

The mountain smiles back at you as your own smile invariably takes you from the stresses of travel to the ahhhhhhhh of a real vacation where nothing is left to chance except where you'll have that first sip of wine, or where you'll watch the amazing sunrise off the mountain as you sip a frothy latte from the gourmet kitchen.

As you arrive, a huge cathedral ceiling opens your senses to the feel of a mountain spa as you're met with open spaces & king-sized relaxation suites in every direction. The view will draw you to it, and onto the massive cathedral porch, where the sights and sounds of flowing, boulder-rich water takes you to a magical world where nature meets nurture.... Welcome to Alpenglow Falls, we're glad you found us!

This 6000+ square foot luxury home boasts three levels full of consistency, yet waiting with pleasant surprises at every turn. From the 3-person infrared sauna & huge indoor/outdoor shower in the spa-themed primary suite, to the sexy subterranean vintage parlor & underground speakeasy, & all the way up to the third level mountain man-cave, there's something for everyone. You can hike from the property into a nearly private trail system to discover the headwaters of the whitewater river, or simply relax on the huge porches, listen to the chorus of the onsite waterfall pool (unheated) or saunter down to the star-gazing fire pit & roast some marshmallows. Meant for R&R in every season, this is nature's spa....

The John Muir Suite, complete with an actual tree harvested on site, is your gateway to another time and space, while the Magic Forest suite engulfs you in wonder and fantasy. The lower level Grotto Suite, with it's private entrance & secret passage to the parlor & underground speakeasy, is like a luxurious cave custom carved for those seeking privacy in a natural environment. The young, and young at heart, will certainly squabble over who gets to stay and play in the mountain man-cave, complete with ping pong, video games, movies, poker, and all the space that 2-4 fun-seeking folks could need.

Every bedroom has its own full bath, plus there's a bonus living room, kitchenette & coffee areas for everyone to have their own schedules & sundries.

For everyone, the main open living, dining, & gourmet kitchen offer large spaces to gather everyone along with professional cooking for the whole clan. Thanks to sliding glass panels, you'll savor the results of intentional design that allow the outdoors in. The expansive screened porches invite the sounds of water & touch of breezes inside, while keeping any unwanted guests out. You no longer have to imagine what it feels like to live with nature as it engulfs your every sense. The hottest summer day is cool and perfect on the cathedral porch, while the coldest winter night allows you to bask under the whisper quiet heaters or enjoy a roaring fire inside and out, so there's no such thing as imperfect weather.

This is Alpenglow living, purpose built as the immaculate escape to the mountains.. Take it Easy, and Play Hard!

Additional services available include:

On-site massage by the best therapists in Western NC!

Private 'bucket-list' guided hiking adventures by Tim, your host and mountain guide who has manicured a system of essentially private hikes to incredible waterfalls not found on any tourist maps or guides but made accessible to you by a very adventurous and passionate waterfall enthusiast. These can vary from mild to wild, so if you want to get the most out of a mountain vacation among the best waterfalls in the area, just let us know! (reservations do need to be made well in advance)

    I could not ask for a more gracious host, than Tim. Tim went out of his way to ensure we had everything we needed, he sent an amazing directional video, a list of fun things to do while in the area and places of interest. Tim has such a delightful personality and sense of humor. The house and amenities speak for theirselves-awesome. We had a delightful time. My children staged an old fashioned “sit-in” to stay longer. Hysterical! Thank you Tim, for making our stay 5 star plus, plus, plus!

    Tim was great and reached out several days prior to our arrival and provided all of the check in instructions and detailed directions on how to get to his amazing home. Whenever I had a question he responded immediately. The home is spectacular with views of Whiteside Mountain from the main areas of the home. My family of 9 were here during the Thanksgiving weekend and the well equipped kitchen was perfect for cooking a large Thanksgiving meal and enjoying ourselves in the open living area. The property is very private at the end of the road in the community but minutes from Cashiers with a large grocery store, many restaurants, and all kinds of shops. There are also many hiking trails nearby our favorite being Whiteside Mountain Trail which is minutes away. We travel extensively as a family and have stayed at many VRBO homes and this home has now become our favorite of them all!

    This home checked all of our boxes, absolutely private, yet only 5 minutes to the Cashier’s crossroad. incredible view, spacious, well stocked and maintained. So comfortable and relaxing! The crowning glory is the gorgeous pool and waterfall, we literally lived in the screened in porch. Our host was a great communicator and made everything so easy. Highly recommended this beautiful property!

    We had such an amazing time at this beautiful house in the woods. I honestly can’t say enough about how perfect the location is with lots of space to roam and explore nature nearby. The house is very well stocked. The kitchen is the best we’ve ever stayed in through a vacation rental. Everyone is looking forward to coming back in the summer to see nature come back to life after its winter rest. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home with us!

    Our fantastic trip started weeks in advance when the charming host, Tim, reached out to us to see how he could help and what he could do to make our stay perfect. The house is absolutely stunning, as fabulous as the pictures are online it was even more incredible in person. There were several kids in our two family party (all under the age of 10) and they had a ball, swimming, hiking, and enjoying the game room, porch, and fire pit. The adults couldn’t get over the views, they were breathtaking! All of the rooms were well appointed and lovely, no detail was overlooked. Easy access to Highlands and Cashiers offered loads of family friendly activities and dining options. Our host was very attentive even going so far as to offer us details about hikes in the area that he curated for his guests. I would recommend this property to anyone and can’t wait to stay again. What a gem!

    Our 3 generation family trip of 11 could not have been happier with our 8 day stay in this beautiful and stunning new home!! My husband and I took our 5 grown children and 3 grandchildren here recently. We booked the home while it was at the end of construction, but developed such a great relationship with the wonderful owner that we knew we would not be disappointed!! We were blown away by the details of this home from really comfortable beds, the fully chef equipped kitchen, all the beautiful finishes throughout the home and gorgeous views of Whiteside Mountain!! The pictures don’t even fully show how gorgeous this property and home truly are! The home included a little kids’ play room with toys to the delight of our 2,4 and 6 yr olds! We even had a friendly bear visit the edge of the front yard almost daily to the delight of all of us!! I could envision this home as a perfect venue for a handful of couples’ getaway, a perfect golf guy’s gathering or a family celebration of any sort! It’s 5-10 minutes away from great restaurants, shopping and lots of outdoor activities, including Lake Glenville where we rented a pontoon boat for a couple of days. I could go on and on, but I highly recommend this home and incredibly attentive owner to anyone. Tim knows how to manage a high end rental of his home!!! He truly wants his guests to love this home as much as he does! He is a great communicator. We’ll be back, our whole family can’t wait to sit on the magical back porch together! ♥
