About this property
Serene Forest Mountain Retreat
Welcome to the Mountain Mangrove.
Our secluded mountain hideaway in the “land of waterfalls” is surrounded by forests, rivers and state parks.
The spacious and updated 3 bedroom 2 bath getaway has a large functional kitchen, cozy living room with vaulted ceilings and a stone fireplace, as well as 3 bedrooms with large closets and big windows. Enjoy views of the Gorges State Park from our expansive backyard deck.
This peaceful family and pet friendly home is a hidden gem tucked away amongst the Nantahala Forest and Gorges State Park. Stargaze on the back deck, pick up hiking trails from our backyard and immerse yourself into the natural environment with the sounds of birds, crickets and the Toxaway Falls in the distance.
The surrounding area is home to hiking and biking trails for all skill levels, craft breweries and restaurants and over 100 waterfalls. The Highlands area is the perfect getaway for your next family vacation or mountain escape.
