Headwater Cabin - Listen to the Chattooga River!

Located less than 2 miles from the Crossroads in Cashiers, Headwater Cabin is a slab-and-chink log cabin with rustic mountain charms, newly-updated modern conveniences, and thoughtful design touches. The Chattooga River runs the length of the almost two-and-a-half acre property; listen to the stream from the home's two back decks, or dip in your toes to cool off in the summer. Headwater offers guests a uniquely private and forested mountain escape, meanwhile within a managed gated community near the heart of town.

The entry-level of this home boasts a dramatic vaulted ceiling, warm and inviting open-concept space, grand stone wood-burning fireplace, and brilliant natural light. The spacious living space is a design marriage of vintage farmhouse and modern luxury and features a fireplace-situated seating area, a puzzle/game table vignette, bay window reading nook, and a dining area with a large farm table to comfortably seat the whole family. The newly renovated, well-equipped kitchen features soapstone counters, new appliances, and a passthrough window to the outdoor dining area on the second floor deck, also accessible by french doors from the main space. The deck affords an outdoor living and dining set-up with gas grill, as well as views of the property hillside, the babbling river, and winter views of Whiteside Mountain.

Enter the queen master bedroom through a cozy seating area, a great place to snuggle up with a good book or enjoy the flat-screen satellite TV. The cedar-board walls underscore the cabin ambiance and the french doors at the foot of the bed open out to the porch deck. There is a large attached master bath with a roomy walk-in stand-up shower with two shower heads, dual sink vanity, and walk-in closet. Upstairs in the loft you will find an open area and nook with twin bunk beds, a full bath with stand-up walk-in shower, and a separate bedroom with a full mattress as well as crib. Downstairs the basement is fully finished with refined touches, including board-and-batten ceilings, a new washer/dryer, and a soaking tub/shower combination in the full bathroom. The basement bedroom has a queen bed and seating area, walk-in closet, and opens out to a screened sleeping porch with a full futon and charming porch arrangement. Rounding out the basement is expansive great room with ample seating, kids activity table, push-button gas stove fireplace, and 65" flat screen television that connects to satellite or internet. The comfy, oversized sectional features a queen sleeper, and the great room opens onto the lower of two decks.

Our cabin has been lovingly renovated and decorated to comfortably host large families, with ample parking, various sleeping arrangements to choose from, and multiple spaces for your groups to gather. We are located 5 minutes from Cashiers, 20 minutes to Highlands, and 10 minutes to Lake Glenville.
