Well appointed comfortable cottage

I have rarely seen such lovely decorating in a VRBO. The house was private, comfortable, quiet and not far from areas such as Cashiers and Highlands. The property is large enough to walk our poodle. We slept well. The screened in porch was heavenly

Great Spot!

We loved our stay in this wonderful cabin. EVERYTHING has been thought of! The grounds are gorgeous and we enjoyed the private trail to the top of the property- great views! We spent lots of time on the porch and made s’mores around the fire pit. Inside, the cabin was spotless and so comfortable. The owners are very nice and helpful with recommendations. This property is very well cared for and it shows, we would highly recommend!

I wish I could keep it secret

This is one of those places I would selfishly like to keep secret but that would be unfair. This is a lovely little cottage. The hosts are very welcoming. Feels wonderful from the second you walk in the door. Selina does an excellent job of sharing information about the surrounding area. I really wish I could have enjoyed the cute screened porch, but an early cold snap prevented that. But we were nice and snug inside.

Cashiers getaway

Wonderful & relaxing property. Cottage is extremely comfortable with numerous personal touches. Screen porch is perfect outdoor room to take in nature and soothe the mind. Surroundings are "park-like". Owners' amenities are more thoughtful than any vacation rental we've ever stayed. Easy to communicate with and very knowledgeable of local interests and activities. Highly recommend, we look forward to returning.

The Perfect Mountain Vacation

From the moment we arrived we knew we were at the most charming and beautifully appointed cabin. It was elegantly furnished, clean, cozy and the location was conveniently located near Cashiers, Highlands and Franklin. The kitchen was stocked with many complimentary items including everything we needed for s’mores. During our 7 night stay we enjoyed the outdoor fire pit every evening and John kept us stocked with firewood. The hiking on the property and views were second to none. The hosts Selina and John were very gracious and accommodating. If you’re fortunate enough to stay at this property you will not be disappointed.

Magical Cottage

We had the good fortune to secure a 4 night get away to this magical cottage in Cullowhee, NC. Cannot say enough about the property's beautiful, peaceful and secluded surroundings. The cottage was small but perfect for my husband, myself and our dog Max. The interior decor and furnishings were chic yet comfortable. Kitchen had everything imaginable for creating for a gourmet meal. The outdoor gas grill was immaculate and much appreciated. We had a fire each night outside by the firepit surrounded by Adirondack chairs. Selina even provided ingredients for S'mores. If you are lucky enough to book a stay you will not regret it.

Little slice of heaven

We had a wonderful visit to this area and cabin. Selina went out of her way to provide snacks and toiletries and you really want for nothing. We stayed a week and went to all the area towns and lakes and waterfalls and our dog had a great time hiking with us The cabin is just as portrayed in the pictures and Selina is always quick to respond if you have any questions or need anything. Make sure to check out Glenville lake— it’s gorgeous There’s a wonderful fire pit, that has wood supplied, we didn’t get to use it. We were afraid of the dry conditions and leaves blowing to risk it I absolutely adored the screened in porch. I spent a good bit of time just relaxing out there We timed it just right to view the beautiful fall colors of the leaves changing and even went for a short trip on the Blue Ridge parkway for spectacular views We enjoyed our stay and would love to return in the future.

This cabin is top-shelf in all ways. Selena goes above and beyond to make your stay a 5-star experience. The property is so well-maintained. The cabin is beautifully decorated. The welcome book is full of useful info. Selena has it stocked so you can have a little something the first morning before you go to the store. There were juices, sodas, butter, half & half, coffee, sweeteners, even s’more fixins for the fire pit and snacks to take hiking. Do not hesitate to make your reservation at this cabin. The property and the host get a “superb” rating from us.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I have owned this 50 acre property for 25 years. Our house overlooks Lake Glenville and was built in the early 1900’s. The 1937 Cabin was built by the original owner for his son and new bride in 1937 and is the only rental on the property. The 1937 Cabin is located on the north side of the property, very private and 7 acres or so from our house which you cannot see. The 1937 Cabin has been completely renovated from top to bottom with no cost spared in furnishings. Many improvements have been made over the years including planting almost 4000 rhododendrons and is just breathtaking in May when they are in bloom. This property is one of the last large acreage overlooking Lake Glenville that hasn’t been developed.
