Please note our home is not well suited for Children Or Teens. There is very little to do in the peaceful serenity of our home and community. It's ideal for Adults, and Couples.

Two spacious and sheltered decks allow you to take in the beauty of western NC mountains as you overlook 'Sleepy Valley' and Big Sheep Cliff Mountain.

Reserve your dates now to enjoy beautiful sunny days and stars on mountain tops at night. Spring brings in the beautiful warming weather and gorgeous new foliage while Summer brings warm but tolerable temperatures, usually in the high 70s. The Fall And Winter are great times to connect with Mother Nature!! (All Seasons are beautiful and fun and we rent year round)

Our rental rates are very competitive for this quality vacation getaway.

Peace Mountain Lodge is ideal for a family vacation or multi-families. Each of the 5 well furnished bedrooms has its own full bathroom. Enjoy your own suite should you want to get away for peace and quiet. The Large Kitchen/Dining/Living Room spans the main floor level and is large enough to entertain more than the 10 people that sleep at the house. Downstairs the large bar area with sound system and one of 7 flat screen HD televisions is also a great place to entertain. High Speed Internet and free WiFi are available throughout the home if you wish to stay connected to the outside world, along with landline telephones with free long distance.

The amazing wood-filled interior and decks remind you of the cabin feel in the size and comfort of a great lodge, but a private home for you and your family/friends.

The panoramic mountain views from the two covered decks are spectacular, enjoy all of the changes nature brings from these decks. Relax, or dine outside with plenty of deck furnishings. Grill up a great meal on the back deck barbecue grill.

Every season offers a different experience. Spring is vibrant and stunning as everything blossoms and turns green. Summer is cool and refreshing, seldom getting warmer than 80 degrees during the day, about 60 degrees at night. Enjoy the beauty of the mountains as the leaves change in Fall. Winter usually delivers several dustings of Snow which accumulates to about 4 - 6 inches. Nearby brooks babble through the night during and after rainy days. Nearby hiking trails traverse streams, enjoy the water view as the streams cascade down slick rock covered creek beds.

Lovely mountain home

We stayed at the Peace Mountain Lodge for just one night as we were attending a wedding at Castle Ladyhawke. The castle was about 35 minutes away. We had 4 young children with us--aged 2 and below--and the house was very roomy! Gorgeous views and all the amenities we needed. Would recommend a 4-wheel drive car to get to the house, especially in colder months. The owner is very helpful and responsive! Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Mountain Getaway

My family of 5 and our family friends stayed in Peace Mountain Lodge for fall break and it was perfect! The house had everything we needed, comfortable beds, very clean, all the pots and pans/utensils, and beautiful views! We spent our days hiking around Highlands and Cashiers and the house was so cozy to come back to after long days. We will absolutely be back again!

Heavenly!

Peace Mountain Lodge is absolutely beautiful, and the setting is magnificent. Slopes of rhododendron and floors of moss are breathtaking. Wake up early to see the glorious sunrise, and wait for the colorful sunset dream. Late in the evening step out and look up at the stars, OH MY GOODNESS! The lodge was perfect for our entire family. It’s spacious and very comfortable … we didn’t want to leave! I love to cook, and the fully-stocked kitchen made it so easy to prepare meals. By the way, you can purchase your staples at the nearby, new Ingles Market. And the large, round dining table, fabulous! The furnishings and artwork are extremely beautiful. The beds are vey comfortable, soft and cozy. If you love antiques, be sure to check out the Church of the Good Shepherd Bazaar Barn … you’ll need to reserve a U-Haul! We hope to return to paradise during another season, perhaps autumn.

5 Star Family Gathering

Our group consisted of 8 adults (4 couples) and 3 kids aged 3 to 7. The house was the perfect setup for our mostly adult group. We loved that every couple had their own room with kings size bed and en suite bath. No one felt like they got the short end of the stick. The kitchen was well equipped and the living area was spacious and a great place to hang out. The dining table sat 8 very comfortably and for one meal we got all 11 of us around the table. We had a great time. I’d highly recommend this property!

Mountain vacation

The house is lovely, very clean, very well equipped kitchen, 5 bedrooms with private baths make it ideal for large groups. Property is centrally located in a lovely development. If you rent this house be sure to drive/walk/run/bike up to the summit. The views and homes there are lovely. We went tubing on the Tuckaseegee, boating on Lake Glenville, fly fishing, mountain biking in Pisgah, hiking and swimming in the pools at the base of various waterfalls. All within an easy drive from the house. We cooked in every night. The kitchen has great knives (unusual in a rental), and many tools to help with prepping meals. We had a great time!!

Can We Just Move In Here and LIVE ??

We have been to Peace Mountain Lodge several times and found it the perfect spot for family, friends, excursions to nearby Mountains, Streams, Waterfalls, Hiking, ...We love the Orchard Restaurant about 10 minutes away for fine dining. Micas nearby only just a 2 miles from the entrance gate to the community where Peace Mountain Lodge is situated..is a great place for live music outside under the huge covered dining area with full bar. If you want to get away from it all...privacy, security, and a large home with 5 king beds and each room is it's own suite with full bath...then this is the place.... The views off the back decks are tremendous looking over Sheepcliff Mountian. Peace Mountain Lodge is also close to Grocery Store (great for quick run for last minute items), and close to Lake Glenville for fishing and boating.....Fun Spot...will be back again and again.

It doesn’t get better than this!!!!

This place had everything we needed and more than we could have ever imagined.! The 5 bedrooms had very comfortable king size beds, nice TVs and nice attached bathrooms. It was perfect for us (4 siblings with our spouses ). The master suite is on the main floor which is where our 85 year old mother stayed. She had a walk in shower and was able to access the grand room, den and deck without climbing any stairs. The home is beautifully decorated and is stocked better than any place we have stayed. Nestled in the trees, it was so peaceful, relaxing and just what we all needed. We are already planning our next trip! Thank you so much John, for your helpful information, thoughtful texts and for sharing your perfect mountain home with us!

Bliss!

We reviewed hundreds of properties before choosing Peace Mountain Lodge for our 30th Anniversary family celebration, but you just never know until you get there. It was everything we had hoped for, and more. The owner was a joy to work with, the facilities were top notch and the view alone was worth the price! Beautiful decor with just the right amount of "rustic." Everything we needed in the kitchen, a big back deck overlooking an incredible view that was perfect for morning coffee and after dinner chats, an outdoor table big enough that we all ate many of our meals overlooking the beautiful view, a big dining table that was perfect for games, an open seating area around the fireplace. Bedrooms were all comfortable with their own bathrooms equipped with excellent furnishings. There was even a big family room and deck downstairs! Overall, just an incredible place. We hope to be back!

Nice Home

Beautiful large custom home with a spectacular view of distant mountains. No road noise or neighbors, and a couple of miles from the Ingels supermarket in Cashiers, NC and some restaurants. Cashiers is a dry city so 30 minutes to the nearest ABC store. Five bedrooms but one has three bunks for the rug rats, so figure on 4 couples max. Little touristy stuff - the main attractions are the mountains and streams and outdoor recreation. Extremely clean (like immaculate) with firm beds that seem new, and all custom interior decor. Lots of candles. Kitchen has a smooth top stove I wasn't used to but with convention oven, and all the glasses, plates, cutlery, etc. you need. All hardwood floors, two decks, and a hammock. Very upscale neighborhood with a front gate opened by punching in a key code. Easy entrance and exit from the main road. Very steep driveway (like everything else in the mountains) with a turnaround/parking so you don't have to back down. A very large luxurious master bath with gigantic shower and plate glass door with ample room and space for a couple more shower heads. Toilets are low flow and one clogged up while we were visiting - like our low-flow toilets do at home. The nights were cool that our relatives from Michigan liked. There are a couple of fireplaces we didn't bother using. Our stay was for a small family reunion and every bed was filled. Everyone wished we could have stayed a full week. We have rented places in Orlando and Michigan, but this home was definitely the nicest one so far.
