NOTICE: DO NOT BOOK THIS PROPERTY WITHOUT MESSAGING US AND PREAPPROVING YOUR PETbrbrThis Rent In Highlands vacation rental home is pet friendly for one small dog, under 20 pounds. Pets must be pre-approved. An additional non-refundable pet fee is required and is not included in the rental fee. Please call our office for approval and to pay the pet fee. Failure to adhere to this policy will result in a $1000.00 fine.brbrOnly adults (25 years old and older) may reserve this property and an adult must occupy the property at all times.brbrThis home has an exterior camera overlooking the driveway for security purposes.brbrEnd of the Road. Top of the Ridge. Beginning of the Best Trip You've Taken in a While.brbrThere's something about a house at the end of a road, perched on a hill, with a creek running through the ravine below and practically zero traffic noise despite being five miles from Main Street Highlands — it just feels like it was put here on purpose. Like someone knew exactly what a vacation was supposed to feel like and built accordingly.brbrThis is that house.brbrThe Kind of Quiet You Actually Have to Seek Out Tucked behind a ridge off Highway 64, the property sits in a pocket of genuine stillness that's surprisingly hard to find this close to town. The summer temperatures rarely climb above 80 degrees. The creek below the screened porch runs year-round. The neighbors are far enough away that you'll forget they exist. And yet downtown Highlands is a five-minute drive, Cashiers is six miles in the other direction, and everything in between — waterfalls, hiking trails, rivers, lakes, golf courses, restaurants worth planning a trip around — is well within reach.brbrInside: Bright, Open, and Built for Staying In Soaring vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows flood the great room with natural light the moment you walk through the door — the kind of architectural move that makes a space feel twice as large and infinitely more inviting. A stacked stone wood-burning fireplace anchors one end of the room, a 55-inch smart TV and Sony sound system anchor the other, and a reading nook tucked under the stairs quietly makes the case for the most underrated seat in the house. The open kitchen and dining nook — table for six, fully equipped, no hunting for what you need — keeps everything connected without crowding anyone out. Two sliding doors lead to the front deck, so the inside and outside flow into each other the way they should.brbrThree Bedrooms, Every Base Covered The main level hosts two queen bedrooms — a primary suite with a private ensuite and a guest room with a full bath just across the hall. Head upstairs and the king primary suite waits with its own private ensuite and genuine separation from the rest of the house. The loft outside the upper bedroom adds a sleeper sofa for flexibility, plus a fully functional office with monitor and laser printer for anyone who can't completely unplug. Every bedroom has its own flat-screen smart TV loaded with cable, HBO, Showtime, and Cinemax — because sometimes the best mountain activity is a good movie marathon with the fireplace going.brbrTwo Outdoor Spaces, Two Completely Different Moods The screened porch on the side of the house looks out over a small ravine with a creek threading through the trees below it. Shaded, cool, and serenaded by moving water, it's the kind of place you sit down in and then realize an hour has passed. The front deck operates on different energy — open to the sky, outfitted with a Weber gas grill and dining table, and positioned to catch glimpses of the sunset through the trees, especially in the cooler months when the leaves step out of the way.brbrMorning coffee on the screened porch. Dinner off the grill on the front deck. Repeat until checkout.brbrThe Surrounding Area Five miles to Highlands. Six to Cashiers. In between: some of the best hiking in the Southeast, waterfalls you'll want to photograph, rivers worth floating, lakes worth fishing, and restaurants that consistently surprise people who thought they were just coming up here for the mountains. The mountains are reason enough. Everything else is a bonus.brbrPlease respect the neighbors privacy and do not use any adjoining driveways to turn around.brbrWhat our guests are saying…brbrGreat New Year! This property sits in a nice neighborhood directly between Cashiers and Highlands, as advertised. The community is quiet and you feel like you are in a tree house. There is a stream that runs through the community and it is so soothing. Very walkable throughout the community too. Inside was extremely clean and we personally love that the kitchen was well stocked. The vaulted wood ceiling made the place feel so open. 2 patios, one screened in and one not which was also another benefit. We highly recommend and hope to stay again! - Rent In Highlands Vacation Rental Guest, Heather R.brbrSpecial Amenities:brbrScreened in porch with firepit tablebrLiving room with wood burning fireplacebrPeaceful water sounds from the creekbrbrHome Protection Plan - Included in the booking total is a Home Protection Plan.brbrThis home is professionally managed by Rent in Highlands, a division of Country Club Properties.

This Rent In Highlands vacation rental home has a strict NO PET policy. Failure to adhere to this policy will result in a $1000.00 fine.brbrOnly adults (25 years old and older) may reserve this property and an adult must occupy the property at all times.brbrThere's a moment when you settle into the porch swing at the front of this house, Lake Sequoyah shimmering just across the road, rocking chairs on either side, the kind of mountain quiet that makes your shoulders drop two inches — and you realize you picked exactly the right place.brbrPerched high on a knoll above the lake, recently renovated, and closer to downtown Highlands than it has any right to be given how peaceful it feels, this three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home hits every note. Stone fireplace. Garden tub. Pool table downstairs. French doors opening onto a deck with a gas grill. And that porch swing, waiting for whoever claims it first.brbrThe Main Level Gets Everything Right - A gorgeous stone gas fireplace anchors the living room and sets the tone for the whole house — warm, unhurried, and easy to be in. The light-filled dining room with French doors onto the deck keeps indoor and outdoor living connected in the way mountain homes do best, and the cozy kitchen with its breakfast nook and pass-through to the dining and living areas makes the whole main floor feel like one continuous, welcoming space. The main-level primary suite completes the picture with a spacious private bath and a garden tub that earns serious appreciation after a day on the trails. No stairs between you and anything you need — a detail that matters more than it sounds.brbrThe paved parking area out front includes an access ramp that makes loading, unloading, and accessibility genuinely easy — a thoughtful touch that larger groups and multigenerational families will quietly appreciate.brbrUpstairs, the Guest Rooms Deliver Two generous bedrooms on the upper level — one queen, one king — share a full hallway bath and provide comfortable, well-appointed space for the rest of the group. Simple, solid, exactly what guests need after a full day in the mountains.brbrDownstairs, Things Get Fun - The lower level is where the trip loosens up entirely. A family game room with a pool table and comfortable couches handles movie nights, rainy afternoons, and the kind of low-stakes tournaments that somehow become the most talked-about part of the vacation. It's the room that keeps everyone in one place without anyone trying.brbrOutside, the Lake Steals the Show The front porch — rocking chairs, porch swing, lake views — is the kind of outdoor space that turns a vacation into a ritual. People come back to this house because of that porch. Off the dining room, the open-air deck with its gas grill and bistro dining set handles the other end of the day: long al fresco dinners, good conversation, mountain air doing what mountain air does.brbrTwo porches. One lake. Zero reasons to be in a hurry.brbrDowntown Highlands is just minutes away — restaurants, shops, waterfalls, and trails all within easy reach. But Lake Sequoyah is right there across the road, and the porch swing has a way of making that feel like enough.brbrWhat our guests are saying…brbrFirst time Highlands getaway!

Welcome to Raintree Retreat — a cozy mountain getaway on a peaceful acre in beautiful Highlands, North Carolina. Relax on the screened-in porch with your morning coffee, soak in the hot tub under the stars, and gather around the fire pit for s’mores in the evening. Surrounded by rhododendrons, a small pond, and the sounds of nature, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath retreat offers the perfect mix of privacy and convenience — just 8 minutes from downtown Highlands and 12 minutes from Cashiers.brbr**Open Common AreabrUpon entering the home, you will be greeted by vaulted ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors and an open concept living space, hosting a living room, dining space and a well-appointed and updated kitchen. The living room has comfortable seating around the large stone gas fireplace, as well as the 65 flat-screen TV. The kitchen offers granite countertops and bar seating for 4, and is equipped with all you need to make a home-cooked meal. A drip coffee maker is available, as well as a Nespresso machine. We do provide a few Nespresso pods, but recommend bringing some from home if you are a Nespresso user! The dining area comfortably seats 6 and offers access to the screened-in porch.brbr**Bedrooms and bathroomsbrOff of the kitchen, there are 2 good-sized bedrooms (1 King, 1 Queen) along with 2 full baths. The master suite bath includes a shower/tub combo, and the guest bath, that has an entrance from the 2nd bedroom as well as the hallway, includes a standing shower. On the other side of the house is a large bonus space that serves as a 3rd bedroom (1 queen bed, 1 twin) as well as a fun play area for kids with a cabinet full of games and puzzles.brbr**Outdoor Living:brOff the back of the home, an idyllic screened-in porch stretches the entire length of the house, creating the perfect space to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The porch is accessible from both the dining area and the primary bedroom, making it easy to step outside and enjoy the fresh mountain air. Gather around the large outdoor dining table for dinner, or cozy up on the cushioned seating with your favorite beverage.brbrJust steps from the porch, you’ll find an acre of tranquil outdoor space to explore. A stone fire pit surrounded by Adirondack chairs is the perfect spot for roasting s’mores and sharing stories under the stars. Beneath the porch, a private hot tub offers a cozy place to relax after a day of exploring—perfect for a soak while listening to the sounds of nature.brbrThe large, moss-covered yard is dotted with native trees and rhododendrons, leaving plenty of room for children to run and play. The yard gently slopes down to a small pond, offering yet another peaceful place to pause and enjoy the quiet mountain setting.brbrbr**DrivewaybrParking is a breeze at Raintree Retreat. The level driveway comfortably fits 2 cars with one in front and one directly behind it. There is also a gravel parking spot to the right as you turn in the driveway that will fit another car. A fourth car could also fit at the end of the driveway if necessary. We do not recommend parking on the road, as it is quite narrow.brbr**Directions to and from our house - IMPORTANT!brbrFrom Cashiers:brbrRaintree Lane is a sharp right turn off of 64, coming from Cashiers. If you'd rather not take this sharp right, continue past Raintree Ln and take your next right on Cherrywood Drive. After turning onto Cherrywood, take your next right onto Raintree Lane. The road will wind a bit, and our home will be directly ahead, just past the turn off for Lazy Creek Lane. brbrFrom Highlands:brbrWe HIGHLY recommend taking Cherrywood Drive to Raintree Lane, instead of turning directly onto Raintree from 64. The turnoff onto Raintree from 64 is a blind curve and very dangerous! Instead, from Highlands, take a left onto Cherrywood Drive (right past the Dollar General). From here, turn right onto Raintree Lane. The road will wind a bit and our home will be directly ahead just past the turn off for Lazy Creek Lane. brbrFrom our house to Cashiers or Highlands:brbrTo go to Cashiers or Highlands, we recommend leaving the neighborhood through Cherrywood Drive. You can turn left out of our driveway and exit onto 64 from Raintree Lane, HOWEVER, it's not always easy to see cars coming from this way, so we recommend the following:brbrTake a right out of our driveway, and an immediate left to stay on Raintree Lane. Raintree Lane will dead end into Cherrywood Drive. Take a left on Cherrywood, and the road will dead end onto 64. Take a right to go to Highlands, or a left to go to Cashiers. brbr**Other details to note:brThere is a guest information notebook on the entryway table that includes guidelines for systems, appliances, and electronics in the house. It also includes some house rules and a departure checklist, which is all available virtually as well.brbrPlease note, because there is often tight turn around time in bookings, we do charge $50 per hour as a late checkout fee. As a reminder, checkout time is 10:00 a.m.brbrWe have a strict NO PETS and NO SMOKING policy. If either of these policies is not followed, we will charge an additional $500 fee.brbrTo see more photos and videos of our property, check out our instagram page! @raintreeretreathighlands

This cottage was built in 2011 but feels like it was designed by someone who spent considerable time in the French countryside and came back with very specific opinions about how a home should feel.brbrLight. Warm. Effortlessly put together and two blocks from downtown Highlands, which means Harris Lake is a short walk, Main Street is around the corner, and the porch swing sunset view over Satulah Mountain is available every single evening at no extra charge.brbrA Great Room That Does Two Things at Once - The soaring open-concept great room is the kind of space that appears in shelter magazines and then surprises you by actually functioning in real life. Two distinct seating areas — one gathered around the fireplace for reading and conversation, one oriented for movie nights — give a large group somewhere to spread out without feeling separated. The kitchen flows naturally into the space with ample counter room and large windows that pull the outdoors in, keeping whoever's cooking connected to everything happening around them.brbrThe elegant primary suite earns its description - a footed tub, a walk-in shower, and a spa-like finish that makes the morning routine feel like an event worth lingering over. Everything about this room was designed for the kind of slow, restorative rest that a real vacation requires.brbrUpstairs, the Math Works - Two upper-level bedrooms, each with two double beds, plus a loft with a trundle — flexible, functional, and genuinely comfortable for families or groups traveling with kids of varying ages. The layout gives the upstairs its own identity while staying connected to the warmth of the great room below.brbrThe Front Porch is the Highlight - Reel A porch swing. A gas firepit. Lounge seating on one side, a dining table on the other, and Satulah Mountain straight ahead. The front porch of this cottage is the kind of outdoor space that people describe when they tell friends about the trip — the specific detail that gets mentioned every time. Morning coffee. Afternoon swings. Sunset with a drink. Evening fire. It handles all of it, and it handles it beautifully.brbrAround back, a patio just off the kitchen with a grill and a charming iron bistro set for two offers a quieter, more private outdoor counterpoint — perfect for an early morning before the house wakes up or a late cookout dinner when the front porch has already done its work for the day.brbrTwo Blocks From Everything - Harris Lake's walking path is steps away — ducks, geese, water, and the particular calm that a lake path delivers before the day gets going. Main Street Highlands is two blocks in the other direction, with acclaimed restaurants, boutique shopping, the Highlands Playhouse, and the Old Edwards Inn and Spa all within easy walking distance. This cottage manages to sit at the center of everything Highlands offers while feeling like a private retreat the moment you step inside.brbrSatulah Mountain at sunset from a porch swing. That's the pitch. Everything else is a bonus.brbrWhat our guests are saying…brbrWhat a blessing!

The Butterfly House is a truly one-of-a-kind mountain retreat designed by Jim Fox, inspired by the organic architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright's “Fallingwater.” Built directly into the side of the mountain overlooking Blue Valley, this remarkable home was designed to blur the line between indoors and out, creating a stay that feels completely immersed in nature.brbrFrom the moment you arrive, you're surrounded by the sights and sounds of the mountains. A waterfall cascades beside the home, filling the air with the soothing sound of rushing water, while floor-to-ceiling windows frame long-range mountain views in nearly every direction. Natural stone, wood, glass, and flowing outdoor spaces make the home feel like an extension of the landscape itself.brbrThe main living area centers around dramatic dual stone fireplaces that can be enjoyed from both inside and the deck outside. Wraparound decks invite you to step into the cool mountain air, dine outdoors, or simply sit and listen to the waterfall echo through the trees. The galley-style kitchen features granite countertops, a gas cooktop, electric oven, beverage cooler, and easy access to the outdoor living spaces.brbrButterfly House offers multiple gathering spaces, including a comfortable family room and lower-level sitting area tucked directly against the mountain itself. On the lower level, exposed rock walls covered with natural moss bring the mountain indoors, creating a space unlike anything you'll find in a traditional vacation home. With the waterfall nearby and the rock surrounding you, it feels as though the mountain is wrapping around the house.brbrThe home sleeps guests comfortably with a queen guest room, a bunk room with two twin bunk beds, and a stunning upstairs primary suite featuring a king platform bed, private balcony, stone fireplace, walk-through closet, and private bath. The suite overlooks both the living space below and the surrounding mountains, adding to the home's open, connected feel.brWith four wood-burning fireplaces, cool mountain breezes, and nature woven into every detail of the design, The Butterfly House offers a mountain experience that is peaceful, immersive, and unforgettable.brbrYour reservation includes a damage protection plan.
