This luxurious spacious mountain property exceeded all of our expectations. It was the ultimate peaceful retreat. Everything in the house was perfectly self-explanatory and any questions we asked the host were answered almost immediately. We visited several breathtakingly, beautiful waterfalls, hiked a few interesting trails and rented a pontoon boat for two hours on Lake Glenville, which offered spectacular Mountain views and was for me the highlight of our trip. We were also pleasantly surprised by the many high-end restaurants in downtown Highlands, I would give this a five star rating and highly recommend it.

We had a wonderful time. The decks and outside fireplace were fantastic. Property clean. Kitchen has all we needed. Communication with host was the best I’ve ever experienced. Some things a little dated and need some cozy blankets. But would definitely stay again and highly recommend it.

Great weekend getaway!

We had a blast spending time in the mountains over a long weekend. The kids enjoyed the hottub, the woods and the zip line! There was plenty of space for us all to sit, relax and enjoy each others company!

We enjoyed Lotts of Sky, especially all the outdoor covered living space. We were completely remote. Our only disappointment was that we didn't see any bears. Maybe next time, as we qoyld absolutely love to go back!

Fantastic Home!

This home was a perfect fit for our group of 10. Three families with kids so the three master bedrooms and the bunk room were perfect for our group. The house has everything you need and the outdoor fireplace was a hit! Marty is a great host and very responsive to any questions. Can't wait to return!

Rustic cabin in Highlands, NC

11 of my family members stayed here for my sons wedding. We had a great time. The house was mountain rustic and comfortable. There were lots of games and a zip line which the 5 children loved. The owner was very responsive and easy to work with. We would rent it again.

Mountain retreat

Excellent communication from homeowner. Marty was friendly and helpful. Also, his picture directions into this remote property were so great! Cabin is rustic and lovely with great views. Very convenient location between Cashiers and Highlands. Bathrooms were clean and house was well stocked for guests. Also this home has super outdoor porch space!

Great Getaway

Our family took a 5 day trip for vacation and stayed at Lotts of Sky. It was a nice house and the porches are AMAZING! We cooked most meals in the kitchen which was well sized and stocked with utensils. The weather was cool so we enjoyed the fireplace on the porch. We brought our dogs, so it was the perfect spot to escape for a few days with the whole family and fur babies. We look forward to returning!

End of summer friends trip!

House and property were clean, comfortable, spacious, quality and full of options for activities and fun! The zip line was nonfunctional but we probably wouldn’t have used it anyway. We completed the short hike to the waterfall off of the property which was beautiful and lush!! The outdoor fireplace was phenomenal! Proximity to downtown Highlands was perfect! Thanks so much for allowing us to stay!!
