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.

Charming and spacious cabin in amazing location

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!

Great for a couples getaway from the kids

The property was perfect for 3 adult couples. Each bedroom was on its own in the house which was perfect. Great open kitchen and den for those after dinner fires. Beautiful views off the back deck and well located right between Cashiers and Highlands. It was a great weekend! Highly recommend.

Highly recommend!!

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!
