Great beautiful home on a quiet natural lot. I love the moss backyard. I went out ever morning and did my grounding out there . We took full advantage of the nice hot tub. The beds were comfortable and plenty of comfortable seating for everyone

Can't say enough about this rental, it was a spectacular rental located in a beautiful scenic surrounding. Although there were neighbors, there spaced well apart and you have your own privacy. Great location not to hard to find nor is it far from town, yet tucked in a forest away from it all. Wouldn't hesitate to rent again. Fairly priced, especially for location and rooms were very well appointed. Place is well taken care of. The host were very friendly and checked in on you the day you arrived to make sure you got in okay and everything was in order.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review, Charles! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the peaceful setting, privacy, and convenient location. One of our favorite things about the property is that balance of feeling tucked away in nature while still being close to town, so we’re glad that stood out to you as well. We truly appreciate your kind words about the home and your experience with us as hosts. It was a pleasure having you stay and we appreciate you taking such good care of our home. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!

We had a great experience. The house was perfect for our family. The house is conveniently located near Highlands and Cashiers and was a short drive to all the attractions in the area. The host was very helpful and made sure we had all the information we needed to enjoy our stay. Would highly recommend this house for your next family mountain get away.

My family absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful home! We had previously stayed here when it was under different ownership, and it was clear that Mark and Emily have invested a great deal of time and care into making the property even more enjoyable. One of our favorite features was the fire pit, where we spent evenings making s’mores and roasting biscuits on a stick. That said, my daughter would probably say the hot tub was the highlight of the trip! The location is perfect—nestled between Highlands and Cashiers, it truly feels like a little slice of heaven. After traveling more than eight hours to reach North Carolina, we were delighted to arrive and find that Emily had thoughtfully stocked the kitchen with eggs, bacon, orange juice, and bread. What made this gesture even more special was that Emily remembered a casual comment I had made during the booking process about how considerate the previous owner had been, often leaving breakfast items for guests. Mark and Emily went above and beyond by continuing that tradition themselves. Their thoughtfulness and hospitality made us feel incredibly welcome and set the tone for a wonderful stay. We highly recommend this home and look forward to returning!

Thank you so much for your incredibly kind review, Subrina! It truly means a lot to us, especially knowing you’ve experienced the home under previous ownership. We’re so glad your family enjoyed the fire pit, and it sounds like the hot tub was a big hit! After such a long drive, we were happy to add a few personalized touches to help welcome your family and make your arrival a little more comfortable. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us. We’re so glad you got to come back to place that you love! It was a pleasure hosting your family, and we hope to welcome you back to the mountains again soon!
