About this property

This tastefully decorated two bedroom, two bathroom cabin is tucked into the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

You’ll find the peace and quiet you’ve been searching for. Far away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it’s just twenty minutes from Cashiers and thirty minutes from Highlands.

The gently sloping yard is perfect for playing games or just sitting out under the stars. There is a fire pit for toasting marshmallows and a wide deck for relaxing and enjoying the mountain air.

Inside, you’ll find everything you need for a relaxing getaway. The master bedroom suite and second bedroom have a cozy queen-sized bed in each bedroom. Both bathrooms feature his and hers sinks and custom stone tile showers. There is also a fold out couch in the living room.

The gorgeous kitchen has beautiful granite countertops and is stocked with basic supplies and utensils, including a coffee maker, toaster and a microwave. Be sure to check out the Farmer’s Market in Cashiers or Dusty Rhode’s Meat Market in Highlands for the freshest vegetables and finest steaks!

There is a flat screen TV including Netflix in the well-appointed living room and free Wi-Fi. Please understand, due to the remote location, the Wi-Fi signal is not very strong. To optimize your Wi-Fi usage, it is recommended to use only one or two devices at a time.

Enjoy everything Highlands and Cashiers has to offer with both gourmet and family style restaurants, award-winning spas, diverse boutique shops and well-appointed groceries. Disappear day after day for countless hiking adventures on trails with scenic overlooks and waterfalls in the area. If that's not your style, then take a swim and sit back on sandy beach by pristine Lake Glenville. Lake Glenville is the highest alpine lake East of Rockies in the oldest mountains on Earth.

Cosy and quiet

This cosy 2/2 cottage tucked into the woods well off any main roads provided all the basics for our holiday get away. Owner was quick to respond when needed. Master bedroom was generously spacious with a nicely updated en suite. Overall we were comfortable. I recommend the owner make some improvements: remove the dingy and worn throws over the living room furniture, update kitchen appliances, improve lamps and side tables, provide full bottles of soap products to each guest, ensure kitchen products are well stocked. We stayed for 10 nights, and having to deal with empty and nearly empty dribs and drabs made us feel like the house hadn't been properly prepared for us. The lack of a welcome basket was noticable.
