Home has 3 levels: Main floor/mid level entry; stairs on main level access floors above & below. There are 3 bedroom en-suites (2 queen, 1 king/master). Each floor has a bedroom/full bath for ultimate privacy when needed! Great for 3 couples, a family w/several kids, or extended family.

Sleeps 8 total: 6 bed spaces, 2 sleeper sofa spaces.

A few “must knows”:
- We do NOT allow pets. No exceptions. Violations entail a fine & eviction.
- We are a NON smoking residence (in house or on porches). No smoking litter on house grounds. This keeps our home clean and enjoyable for all guests!
- We have: central A/C & heat- not needed often (3500 elevation). We mostly use the plentiful windows, to enjoy cool, fresh mountain air. Summers are generally temperate- we are a shaded mountain property.
- We provide linens, “start of stay” paper products and many kitchen expendables. If you are a full house group for more than few days bring extra toilet paper & paper towels. BYO toiletries (shampoo etc).
- We have exterior home security monitoring & a ring doorbell.

Our bedroom set up offers optimal privacy, whether accommodating a large or extended family, or with adult children, or “friend” families with young children.
2 full length covered porches, with comfy furniture & lighting, provide wonderful outside space to relax & enjoy the gorgeous woodsy setting. 1. mid/main level 2. lower level…enjoyable day or night, rain or shine. House has 3 gas fireplaces - one per floor. Locations- Main floor: living room, Lower floor: den space, Top floor IN the master suite. These are for fall/winter season use. No need in summer.

Upper level: loft sitting area, overlooks living room space, and leads to a spacious, private king master ensuite w/fireplace, spa jet tub, full shower bath & his/hers counters/sinks.
Such a relaxing retreat!

**FYI: we have satellite internet & Wifi. We ARE in mountains. Inclement weather, high population times MAY affect service; Like most rentals in this area, we are NOT set up for streaming or gaming!
Re: cell service- We have Verizon; (best mtn service). It is stronger in certain parts of house- and now stronger consistently, w/addition of cell boosters..
Download movies, etc on your devices PRIOR to arrival for viewing while here!
Internet use/service speed should be considered if planning remote work. WE cannot guarantee service will be consistently strong, as it varies with excess usage.
We vacation here to unplug & enjoy the surroundings and people with us- casual usage is not an issue; if vaca plan is multiple device use on a constant basis, the mountains may not your best choice.
The cabin is located just off Hwy 107, 4 miles N of Cashiers intersection of 64 W and Hwy 107. We are 12 miles/20 min drive from Highlands. (Hwy 107 runs along the E side of beautiful Lake Glenville).
Our home is a few hundred yards from HWY 107 and the lake. We have 2 driveways- one to front, one to back of house. Both are paved, significant inclines that are easily accessed by 2WD vehicles in normal seasonal weather, but in snow/ice FWD, AWD or 4WD vehicles are optimal. Otherwise, plan to use ice melt on drives.

This beautiful, Craftsman style home, was well built, with detail and care, to embrace the setting. There are many windows and plentiful, aesthetic porch space to optimize time spent outdoors. All in excellent condition, well cared for.
We’ve preserved the charm, such as the warm pine flooring, but updated as we saw need.
New appliances include: refrigerator, sink/faucet, 5 burner gas range cooktop, wall oven/microwave, dishwasher, keurig and toaster oven, large capacity washer and dryer. Both standard coffee pot & toaster also avail. . Fairly new gas fireplace inserts. High quality, (2020) carpet through bedrooms and stairwells. Kitchen is remodeled. Lower level hard surface flooring & furnishings/fireplace facing are all new.
Things to do:
Picnic, swim or simply relax at the lake - a 5 min walk, any time of day, pop a canoe, kayak or paddle board in the water.
Nearby marina offers a variety of boating rentals!l Hang out at the creek- throw in a fishing line or splash around.
Cashiers is a 10 min drive- convenient to Ingles grocery, Cashiers Farmer’s Market, many cute shops, boutiques and dining, hardware store, business needs/shipping.
Highlands is 12 elevated miles away- S on Hwy 64 with vistas/overlooks, hiking (Whiteside Mtn) & waterfalls all in reach.
Other areas easy to reach from our home: Gorges State Park, Sapphire Valley, Sylva, Nantahala, Lake Toxaway, Brevard, Hendersonville, Asheville, Cherokee, Cullasaja Gorge. SO many waterfalls and hiking options.
We are 1.5 hours SW of Asheville; 2.5 hours N of Atlanta. We use Asheville airport for ease- 1 hr 20 mins from house.

Winter stay
The property was well equipped with everything needed. Our only complaint would be that the first floor bedroom was very cold at night with temperatures in the 30s.

A perfect place for a weekend getaway!
We had a wonderful stay. The kitchen was well appointed with more than enough pots, pans and cutlery to cook a great meal. My wife loved sitting on the back porch, in the quiet to read a book. The beds were comfortable. We would absolutely love to stay there again in the future. The only downside was the Florida Gators commemorative cups…I kid…GO DAWGS! Seriously, we loved our time here.

Wonderful Thanksgiving Stay
We truly enjoyed our stay. This house is amazing. It is decorated with such attention to details. It has a great kitchen and very comfortable beds. Excellent location for exploring the waterfalls in the area and close to Highlands.

Near Glenview Lake and Access to Cedar Point.
House was fine. Be prepared for lots of stairs which was not a problem for us. Wi-Fi is spotty at best. Streaming for movies is poor. No cell service at the house. Very close to Lake Glenville and access to the parking at the cedar point was a nice plus. Master bedroom was nice on the third floor. We did encounter a few issues while we were there. We fixed ourselves or worked with owner to get resolved. The house does sit on Bee tree road which turns out to be a busy road and lots of road noise.

About the host

Hosted by Jeff

Host profile image
We are a family who loves this area and have for many years. We brought our children here regularly for family vacations. Our love for this area motivated us to own this property and to make it a comfortable home and getaway that we enjoy sharing with guests. Our skill sets bring you a beautiful, tastifully decorated, tranquil, relaxing, organized, well stocked and operating space to "feel as comfortable as if your're" home yet totally "like you're on vacation! Having our own home here allows us to easily enjoy a relaxing and vacation knowing the house meets all our family's needs consistently, as our grown children continue to visit with us, now bringing their spouses. It appeals to all ages during all seasons.

Why they chose this property

We have enjoyed vacations in this area of the NC mountains beginning with our honeymoon in the 80's, continuing over 30 plus years, as we raised our children and gathered with extended family who also vacation here. We always visit family members who reside nearby. We are an active family with a love of the outdoors. This area has such a great climate, scenery and wide range of activities to suit us well. As Florida residents, we spend a lot of time at the beach, or enjoying freshwater rivers, but decided it was time to get our own place in the mountains. We desired the Cashiers area because of the altitude and close proximity to Highlands, but especially due to the creek frontage and access to Lake Glenville. The many waterfalls and nearby hikes, such as Whiteside Mountain, Panthertown, Gorges State Park and Whitewater Falls were places we repeatedly return to. The home is cozy enough for two, or expansive enough for a family or several couples, (even with a few kids) to get away from it all and embrace time together amidst a beautiful and fun filled backdrop. There is something to do in every season, and the climate allows.

What makes this property unique

The house is located on Cedar Creek only a couple hundred yards from State Road 107 and Lake Glenville where we have private gated access to a Cedar Point Park with a pavilion, grill, restrooms and parking. Boating recreation is a huge draw for this location and of all kinds are welcome here, from fishing to pontoons, to kayak and canoeing. Motorboats pull tubers and paddleboarders are welcome. There is a marina which rents vessels, if that is a desire. But even a simple walk to sit and enjoy the water from the shore is a wonderful treat. Our view is to the west, so sunset picnics and views are sweet from our community area gazebo by the lake. The creek behind the house is also fun to visit and splash in with the kids.
The house is private enough to enjoy the mountains and feel "away from it all", yet is not so remote that you can't meet your immediate needs. Cashiers is a 10-15 min drive with all you need- gas station, restaurants and a full grocery with pharmacy, Ingles. There is a small local brewery and coffee shop, extensive hardware store, gift boutiques etc, as well. It is a charming area which caters to visitors in this area. Highlands is a 30 min uphill drive and has many options for services and entertainment as well. Sapphire Valley is beyond Cashiers and all of these areas are renowned for golf resorts if that is an appeal.
