Great Adult Family Vacation Spot

We stayed in this house with our adult children and it was perfect. Plenty of space for everyone inside and outside with a well stocked kitchen for family meals. Enjoyed the hot tub and fireplace after long hikes. Felt secluded but was convenient to hikes and restaurants. Owner was responsive and easy to work with. Oh, and the view was amazing. Highly recommend!

Beautiful Mountain Cabin!

This cabin was perfect for our family's Thanksgiving holiday. There were 11 of us and we actually had more beds than people! Our favorite things about the cabin were the gorgeous view, the stocked kitchen, the fire pit (for smores!), the hot tub, and the poker table downstairs. Everything is just as described and pictured in the listing. We definitely give this house a 10/10!

Great View, Great House, Great Times!!!

If you want beautiful views with great accommodations, then this is the place for you! Our family and friends got together here to celebrate our son's college graduation. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left, everything was perfect and we felt completely at home. Ron was great and only a phone call away if we had any questions or concerns. I would highly recommend a stay at Falls View in your near future. Thanks for a great experience!!

Destination Toxaway Wedding

A spectacular home with an amazing view. Very comfortable guest areas and well equipped kitchen. Amazing view and great outdoor fireplace are just a few of the great features of this mountain home. Ron is an awesome host. Very informative and always available by cell phone or text. We hiked right out the back door, and the access road was not bad- a minivan could navigate it easily. I hope we can come back for another trip in summer. Thank you!

Great House!

I've already informed the owner that I will be renting his house again! The pictures do not do this place justice. The location is secluded yet you're just miles a few from Cashiers. The view is literally breathtaking and can be thoroughly enjoyed from the outdoor fireplace or the upper deck. The house feels like home. Comfortable beds. Lots of space. Well appointed. Can not wait to visit again!

Anothe Great Experience!!

Again my family and I returned to "Falls View" the week after Christmas to enjoy a week of fun and togetherness. We were amazed by the lovely holiday decorations and festive feel of the home. My daughter-in-law and I agreed that we could simply move into the home and not have to bring a thing. The owners have provided everything thing you could possibly need. We didn't even mind that the weather was not perfect this year. We snuggled by one of the two fire places, played games around the game table and,of course enjoyed a lot of football on the big screen TV. Of course the view is amazing and constantly changing as the weather changes. At the end of the week we all agreed that it was our favorite week of the year! We look forward to returning next year.

The most perfect vacation home we've ever rented!

I have to start by saying that my family has always rented vacation homes, mostly at the NC beaches, and always from a vacation rental agency. Therefore, I was a bit reluctant to rent a vacation home from a private owner, having assumed it might be awkward. I'm so happy to report that Ron Atkinson was a dream to work with. From the moment I sent in the request to rent this gorgeous mountain home, Ron was completely prompt in his response and professional in his demeanor. In addition, his instructions for arriving and departing the home were incredibly detailed, as were his instructions for using all of the amenities the home offers. I'm notoriously picky about the vacation homes I'll rent and usually do extensive research for days. (literally!) I also have always brought my own sheets and towels, because I'm picky about those as well. When Ron told me the house already has everything we'd need, I decided to take a leap of faith and use what was at the house, for ease of packing. I'm so glad I did because everything was top-notch, and every single time I wondered if the house had something, I turned around and there it was! These homeowners have thought of EVERYTHING! Also, can I mention the beds? They are so comfortable, and everyone in our group raved about them. The view of the waterfall will take your breath away, not just once, but everytime you see it. Really! we never got used to it in the three days we were there. If I'm gushing, believe me, this house deserves to be gushed about. The photos don't even begin to do it justice. We hope to return again and again!! PS Don't tell Ron, but for the size and quality of this house, it's a complete BARGAIN! :)

We had such a wonderful stay at this property! The highlight was definitely the breathtaking waterfall view, it was absolutely stunning and made the entire experience feel peaceful and refreshing. The home itself was spotless, very clean, and well taken care of, which made me feel immediately comfortable and relaxed. Everything was just as described, if not better, and I truly appreciated the attention to detail in keeping the space so welcoming. I would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a clean, scenic, and memorable getaway

An amazing stay!!

We spent our FL spring break here during March 2025. Ron was an amazing host who was extremely responsive with any questions! This is an amazing house in an amazing piece of property in Toxaway, NC. This house has a whole home generator which coincidently we needed because our first night we had a horrible storm causing us to lose power for a while, but the generator kicked on and ran seamlessly and our fun wasn’t interrupted at all! This house has everything from kitchen to towels, to batteries, with a fridge that makes 3 different kinds of ice. The house sleeps 14 people. I highly recommend this property. We were 45 minutes to Highlands, 20 minutes to Cashiers and to Brevard . All towns have wonderful restaurants and shops. Los Vaqueros Mexican restaurant which is 2 minutes from the house and the food is fantastic! The view of the waterfall from the deck is so nice and you’re not too close but close enough to hear the water. We would go back in a heartbeat! Thanks, Ron!

Excellent Mountain Home with a Waterfall View

We've stayed in several mountain homes and cabins. Ron's is among the finest. The home is well-appointed, spacious, and well-equipped for large families and groups. It's in impeccable condition, including appliances and furnishings. Access is a short distance from the main area highway, yet the location is just "hidden" enough to make it very private. The views from the home's large windows include a beautiful cascading waterfall. Communication with Ron was instant; he even checked on us after we arrived to make sure everything exceeded our expectations (which they certainly did). Thank you Ron for the attention to detail!

Amazing Waterfall Views

We truly enjoyed your Lake Toxaway home!! It was very well designed, constructed , decorated and had the most beautiful views of the falls! Your kitchen was amazing and well stocked with cookware and utensils. The lower den/family room and gas fireplace hearth is where spent most of our time and it was wonderful. We ventured out to Gorges State Park, gem mining in Brevard and Moonshine Mountain Snow Tubing that all were great adventures. The home is very roomy for large families and lots of places to sneak away for a nap . The outdoor fire pit and hot tub were very easy to access. Highly reccommended!

Gorgeous weekend

Our group of 9 thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was large enough to comfortably accommodate everyone. Beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and outside areas were outstanding. There were plenty of outside seating areas to eat and enjoy the fantastic scenery. We loved sitting under the stars at the fire pit, listening to great music and enjoying good conversation. The house was very clean. We’d love to return for another hiking weekend next fall.

Family Fun

We were searching for a place big enough for 12, where our Ohio and NC families could meet for a long weekend. It was my husband and I, my 3 adult children and 2 spouses, and 5 grandchildren ages: 11,9,7,4 and 11 months. This home had plenty of room and was so beautiful. We enjoyed so many things: the outdoor fireplace, hot tub, foozball table, not to mention the beautiful view. It was a very short drive to the trail to Rainbow Falls. (This is a pretty strenuous hike!) Ron, the owner, called to check all was OK when we arrived and responded to texts when we had a question . The house was very well stocked with anything you might need. Thank you, Ron

About the host

Hosted by Ronald Atkinson

We met as childhood sweethearts and have been married for over 40 plus years! During that time we raised six children. We retired and have close ties to the Washington, D.C. area where most of our children are still located.

Why they chose this property

My wife is originally from northwestern NC so building this beautiful home in western Carolina was a natural choice for us. We love the scenery and tranquility of the mountains and surrounding waterfalls.

What makes this property unique

When we bought this property years ago we had a vision to build a home that would be comfortable for our family. Later we decided to open our home to guests so they could enjoy the wonderful atmosphere and natures beauty are family so enjoyed.
