Fabulous hosts and cozy getaway

The hosts were amazing and even offered to upgrade our accomodations after they had a last minute cancelation. The place was cozy and clean and has everything we needed for our stay. Highly recommend. Just a short drive (2min?!) to the lake and not far to Cashiers. We loved it, and the hosts were very responsive and helpful during our stay.

Cozy retreat/great location

This sweet retreat was comfortable, and perfect for our needs. We were minutes from the wedding events for which we were in town. Exploring the National Forest nearby was a plus, also. Chris was very helpful and so sweet!

Peaceful, Tranquil, Getaway

The property is is nestled away in a peaceful and tranquil setting, across from a Christmas tree farm. However, it is convenient to the lake and the town of Cashiers. The cabin was super clean, and had all the accommodations one needs for a perfect getaway. Communicating with the host was incredible and she was very accommodating. I would not hesitate to book this property again or any others the host has available. The area is truly a hidden a gem! I cannot wait to return!

Very Nice stay

We drove our son to the Highland's, from Aiken, SC., to attend the senior prom with his girlfriend. We needed an easy, 1 night stay and this fit the bill. The Primes were very accommodating and had excellent communication with us during our stay. When we had trouble getting on the WIFI, they were very quick to resolve the issue with the correct password. The views on the porch were gorgeous and the apartment was neat and tidy and clean. We definitely enjoyed it there. Unfortunately, we saw no bears this stay but maybe in the future. The Primes were excellent hosts.

Anniversary

My husband and I decided to go on an overnight stay at a place we had never visited for our 43rd anniversary! We certainly didn’t go wrong choosing this quaint little town, but the highlight of our stay was in this lovely, romantic little getaway ! Chris our host offered us an upgrade on our reservation and this was a total delight! The place had all the amenities you could expect and so much more! All the little extra's Chris added to make us feel special was as if we were her most valued personal friends! Thanks for the memories! We will certainly be back again!!!!

Weekend escape

We loved the property. There were a ton of personal touches and lots of notes explaining what switches control which lights and other appliances. We didn’t spend much time at the property as we were out exploring the area but the times we were there it was very cozy

Fun house with a beautiful view and gracious host!

Chris is one of the most thoughtful hosts I’ve ever encountered. I had asked if she happened to have an extra phone charger around the house and within seconds she brought one of her own to the rental. I left a hair dryer behind and she immediately offered to ship it to me. Besides her being so kind, her rental was very clean and eclectic. It has all the amenities needed for a weekend trip. Plenty of mirrors which is a must for girls trips. We had no problems with parking, odors, bugs, etc. It’s a good quiet location, close enough to restaurants, gas station,etc. Thanks Chris!!

The retreat

This property was the perfect size for our short stay of two nights. It actually has everything one would need for a longer stay. We really enjoyed sitting outside on the balcony. We want to thank our hostess, Chris, for being so extremely accommodating and helpful!!! There are lots of little towns, waterfalls and lakes in the area to explore. We'll go back sometime!

Cozy Cabin in Glenville

Originally, we booked the apartment, but Christine, the manager of the property, had a cancellation for the "Cozy Cabin" and offered us the upgrade! What a nice surprise, to be greeted with snacks, fresh flowers and personal notes! It is a separate little log cabin on the property and we stayed 3 nights! It was everything we could have asked for - a charming, cozy, comfortable cabin in the mountains with a beautiful view and outside sitting area (hot tub was available too)! We enjoyed sitting on the swing out back and listening to the little waterfall just feet away! So peaceful if R&R is what you need! It was very private, and Christine was the best hostess ever! Anything we needed or wanted, she was there to help or advise! We would highly recommend this place to anyone, and we would come back again! It was a most enjoyable little cabin and town to visit, with plenty of hiking and falls to visit in the area! We thank Christine and Jim for their hospitality and warm welcome!
