This is a lovely and well appointed home. It has a great location almost half way between Highlands and Cashiers. We enjoyed the comfortable screened in porch, hot tub, and back deck rocking chairs with great view. The bath next to each bedroom was a plus!!I highly recommend this property.

Lovely Stay!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful mountain home! The house was very clean, beautifully maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. The owners were incredibly responsive and offered great recommendations that made our trip even better. The location was perfect — conveniently situated between Highlands and Cashiers, making it easy to explore both areas. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing mountain getaway!

We loved staying at this lovely mountain home. It ended up just being two of us, but we chose it for the beautiful view and porches and the proximity to both Highlands and Cashiers. We hope to return and bring our 2 grown kids and their partners. It will be ideal, with what are essentially 3 master bedrooms with baths on 3 levels. The house is so well-stocked and comfortable. We so look forward to returning.

The house is beautiful and comfortable. We loved the decks. We didn’t have a chance to use the hot tub b/c it was serviced and not ready for use. The 4 acres that the house is on isn’t walkable or usable, as it is on a cliff. I believe the 4 acres is the cliff it sits on. The area that the house is in is very quiet and not busy at all. Such a peaceful comfortable stay! The kitchen is stocked with plenty of nice dishes and silverware, pots, pans, baking dishes, etc. I was impressed! Most short-term rentals have dingy housewares. 9/10

About the host

Host profile image
We have loved coming to Highlands for several years and are so thrilled to finally own a vacation home here. The food, the fresh air, the hiking trails, we could go on and on describing why this is the perfect getaway from our busy lives in Atlanta. 4 private acres right on the Highlands/Cashiers border makes this cabin the perfect location to enjoy all that the area has to offer.
