About this property

Acorn Cabin: Mountain Cottage with Private Deck | Peek at Lake Sequoyah

Located in the desirable Webbmont area with views of Lake Sequoyah, this cute 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath mountain cottage is the perfect place to relax and escape the heat of the city. 
Acorn Cabin features two levels with plenty of windows to let in natural light and a rustic stone fireplace in the living room that opens onto the partially covered deck -- perfect for cool mountain days.

The main level has a dining room with a sitting bench in the newly-redone bay windows, a cozy kitchen with a pass-through window, and a spacious livingroom with comfortable furniture and of course the fireplace. It has two bedrooms just past the kitchen-- one with two Twin beds, and another with a Queen Bed & private half bathroom. A full bathroom shares the hallway with these bedrooms.
Downstairs, which is accessed using the small spiral staircase in the living room; you'll find a King bedroom suite with its own TV and access to the lower patio, as well as another full bathroom and a large laundry room. 
Get a peek at Lake Sequoyah through the foliage from the deck as you lounge in the cool mountain air, or hop in the car for a short 2 mile drive to Downtown Highlands and all of its wonderful shopping and dining opportunities. For more water views, a quick trip in the other direction will have you following the Cullasaja River Gorge with several hiking and waterfall stops along the road!

Great place to stay for a visit to highlands. Just outside the main part of town and an easy drive in. Feels tucked away with beautiful nature views. The rental company was very responsive to any questions we had. We had a great stay.The stairs to the downstairs bedroom are a very narrow spiral staircase and the spindles on the bannister are big enough for a dog or toddler to slip through. We were able to block it off for our curious senior pup, but something to be aware of if you have poor mobility or small children/dogs.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We're thrilled you enjoyed the natural setting and found our team helpful throughout your stay. We truly appreciate you providing extra details about the staircase; it's valuable feedback for guests with specific needs or young travelers. We're glad you were able to make it work for your senior pup! We'd love to welcome you back to the Highlands soon.
