You enter the house to AMAZING views through large windows facing the mountains. The home exudes vintage character, charm, warmth and generations of family love. It is SPECIAL! Rooms are large , indoor and outdoor spaces are comfortable and enticing. The house has lots of space and the owner graciously makes room for you and your “ stuff”. You feel welcomed into the family and place and “ the story” of the home. The kitchen is very well stocked. Owner thinks of EVERYTHING you may need. The weather turned quite cool during our stay so we were able to have a couple of fires in the gorgeous stone fireplace. The heating system warms the house quickly and efficiently as well. The home is located conveniently between Cashiers and Highlands for dining, shopping and activities. We hiked, we went fly fishing and horseback riding. The house was very clean , the beds are comfortable, the views are amazing and the yard was a delight for us and our dogs. We loved our stay. Our only regret was having to leave! Thank you , Marilyn, for sharing your property with us. We are already planning our return.

The description says it all. Spacious and comfortable inside and out. The stone deck with views of the mountains is the perfect relaxing spot. We will certainly return!

Amazing View in the Mountains

We had a lovely stay. This is an older home but extremely clean and comfortable. We spent most of our time on the back covered porch and patio appreciating the Amazing View and cool summer breeze. The AC units in the bedrooms are a little louder than we are used to but we were cool and comfortable at night. Great yard areas for dogs and perfect location between Highlands and Cashiers.

Amazing location & unbeatable view

Wonderful stay, you feel like you are visiting the mountain get aways of past. A step back to 1960, but with amenities we all prefer (dishwasher, warm showers, TV, kitchen, w/d, etc). Good communication, lots of space to spread out. Great house for entertaining. We can easily recommend.

Perfect family retreat

This was the perfect place for our young family of 4 to spend the week in the mountains. We had an amazing view and tons of room for the kids to play inside and out. The house feels totally remote and secluded yet you are only 10 minutes from Cashiers and 15 from Highlands. This has obviously been a well loved home and it made a perfect home away from home for us. They everything we could have possibly needed. We hope to be back. Could easily accommodate 2 families.

Lovely Location and Home

The view was superb and the house was wonderful in spite of being a bit outdated. Our one disappointment was in the instructions we received the day before our check-in, we were told not to have a fire in the fireplace. One of the main things we love about the mountains and renting houses is to have a fire. Otherwise, the house was well appointed and we enjoyed our visit.

Dear Kim, Thank you for your awesome review, we are so glad you enjoyed staying at our home! It is a hand hewn, wooden, authentic, NC mountain house that was built well over 80 years ago. We do allow fires in the fireplace, but it is on a base by base case. Due to your review, which was super helpful, we have changed the instructions to reflect your concerns. Thank you, Marilyn

Heavenly View

My daughter has a house in Cashiers but we needed more room for the Thanksgiving overflow. This house was perfect with a main living area and separate wings off the den for sleeping. The view is amazing from the den. Enjoyed seeing deer in the yard.The house is well stocked even with spices. It is a perfect older mountain home. Very comfortable. Communication with the manager was good. We hope to rent again.

Great

Great location and incredible view. One of the best in the area without a doubt. Quite property with no sight of homes or neighbors. A very relaxing environment and we loved that. No central air but there is a unit in the bedroom. However, it was a low of 48F in the morning and highs of 73F in the evenings with a light breeze. We didn’t use it anyway! Marilyn was great and very helpful with checkin and providing hikes in the the area to enjoy. Thank you !!

Amazing family mountain getaway

I stayed here with my dad, sister, 2 nephews and my daughter. It was so quiet and the view was amazing. Feels like you’re in the middle of nowhere all alone and peaceful, but you are I ites from Cashiers and Highlands. We loved it!

Perfect Winter Spot

Our family had a great time at Free Bird! The views were spectacular off the back porch. The house was spacious and cozy. The kids particularly loved the swing in the front yard. The house was a short 10 minute drive with no turns to both Highlands and Cashiers.
