This was the perfect house to host our group of 10 in Cashiers! The views were stunning, the campfire was fantastic, and the house was spacious, clean, and nice. The house is literally atop a peak that makes for beautiful views all around. We will be back!

Magnificent view is an excellent name for this property! The wraparound porch provided sunrise and sunset views that were spectacular. We were there for a family wedding and got to enjoy the fire pit and lots of room throughout the house for family gatherings. We would highly recommend this home for your vacation stay in North Carolina.

This house is absolutely stunning! The mountain views are endless from the front porch sunrise to the back deck sunset! The house was super cozy and perfect for our group. Fire pit with wood provided made for great memory making roasting s’mores. Easy access to downtown Highlands and Cashiers with waterfalls and hiking trails along the way. Heather was super responsive as well with any questions we had. Highly recommend this property! Just wish we could have stayed longer.

I would say the only drawback was all the stairs and steps. We are 75, making it difficult to go up and down. The other problem was the lack of lighting. Each room but the master bathroom were dark.

Everything about this home was amazing, from the location, to the cleanliness, to the comfiness, to the conveniences, to the nicely appointed rooms and bathrooms, to the absolutely incredible 360 views! We enjoyed every morning watching the sunrise and every evening watching the sunset! And the owner was very responsive to one minor issue we had with needing more towels. We will definitely be back!

We absolutely loved our stay at Magnificent Mountain Views. The pictures are beautiful, but they honestly do not do this property justice. From the moment we arrived, we were taken by just how beautiful the home, setting, and especially the mountain views are. It is one of those places that is simply so much better in person.The house was beautiful, comfortable, extremely well maintained, and had everything we needed. We especially loved spending time outside just enjoying the peaceful setting and those incredible long-range mountain views. It was the kind of place where you could sit for hours and never get tired of the scenery.Heather was also a wonderful host and made the entire experience so easy. She was warm, welcoming, responsive, and genuinely a pleasure to deal with from beginning to end. You could tell that she truly wanted us to enjoy both her home and our time in the mountains, and we certainly did.The location was perfect for exploring Sapphire, Cashiers, Lake Glenville, and the surrounding area, but one of our favorite parts of the trip was simply coming back to the house and enjoying the beauty and peacefulness of the property.We have stayed in many wonderful places over the years, and this is definitely one we will remember. If you are considering Magnificent Mountain Views, don’t hesitate—the pictures really cannot capture how special it is. We would happily stay here again and cannot recommend both the property and Heather highly enough!
