This is one of the most beautifully appointed homes we have ever stayed in and it was spotless. We communicated easily and quickly with the owner and loved every minute of our stay. We enjoyed our time together inside in the main family room and made some delicious meals in the spacious kitchen. Our time outside on the property was even better, with a luxurious hot tub and a cozy and welcoming fire pit as well.

Relaxing Getaway

The house is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. The house was exceptionally clean and well maintained. The location is private yet close to restaurants and activities. It was a much needed relaxing getaway. Thank You for sharing your home!

Lovely getaway

We loved our stay at Pheasant Ridge. The home was beautiful, well-appointed and very comfortable for our long weekend getaway. It felt like a 5-star hotel. With all the luxuries one might need. Enjoyed our visit. Love the town of Cashiers which is about 15 mins away and highlands 30 mins away. Both great places to visit. Would definitely recommend this cottage!

Stunning Mountain Home!

Unbelievably beautiful!! This home is the epitome of rustic elegance! Beside being beautiful, the home is equally comfortable and relaxing. The surrounding forest is peaceful and quiet. This was the perfect place for our girls trip, 20-30 minutes to the shopping and dining in Cashiers and Highlands. Highly recommend!!!

Cruz Stay

The home was beautiful and we all throughly enjoyed staying the seven nights. Only two comments to make, the master bedroom was a bit warm at night with the door closed and more towels would be recommended. We only had one hand towel in the master. I would recommend this home to our friends.

Thank you for your comments, and while we are sorry that you found your stay less than a 5/5, the temperature issue could have easily been resolved by the nest thermostat on the wall near the owner's closets. We have addressed the issue of adequate towels with our housekeeping staff - each bathroom is supposed to be equipped with adequate bath, hand and face towels along with towels for make-up removal. Going forward may i suggest reaching out to our concierge to address any issues that you may have. Sincerely, Pheasant Ridge Cottage.

Home away from home

You will feel like you walked into a designer showcase home. The location is great. 15 minutes from Cashiers and 30 minutes from Highlands. Hiking, shopping and restaurants all nearby. The house is nestled in the beautiful forest of Sapphire Valley. Spacious and incredibly appointed. The house has all the luxuries you would expect from a high-end hotel. The hosts know hospitality and it shows. Property manager was accessible and responsive to all of our questions before and during our stay. Great for enjoying family, friends or just to get away from it all. Very peaceful location. Loved the hot tub and firepit and wrap around porch. I highly recommend this property.

Pheasant Ridge Cottage exceeded our high expectations! We will return, year after year!

Nestled in the beauty of the Sapphire area, Pheasant Ridge Cottage is extremely well appointed and beautifully decorated. We were four adults. From the moment we reached the cottage, we felt like we'd stepped into a dream of what a fine hunting lodge should be. Not only is the interior gorgeous, but thoughtful touches from the owners (a bottle of wine, a list of nearby attractions, magazines that feature area info, and easy-to-follow instructions for fireplace, wifi, etc.) made us feel like cherished and welcomed guests. I could have stayed inside all week with the fireplace going, but the porches, which are well-decorated and offer comfortable seating and dining tables, beckoned me outdoors to enjoy the fall foliage. We especially enjoyed the fire pit! The wooded property provides a delicious feeling of seclusion, yet the location is perfect for enjoying all that the region has to offer, including waterfall hikes, dining, and shopping in nearby Cashiers and Highlands. We're looking forward to many return visits to Pheasant Ridge Cottage!
