About this property

Hilltop Hideaway- Cozy Cabin w/ Fireplace, Private Deck/Yard, Family Friendly!

Ready for the perfect mountain getaway? Whether you're a couple looking for a romantic weekend, an outdoor enthusiast, or a family with kids, this cabin in the Blue Ridge Mountains is the perfect setting to relax and make memories. This recently updated cabin sits on 1.5 wooded acres, promising you privacy, peace, and quiet - the only sound you'll hear is the nearby stream. After you've spent the day exploring the outdoors, you can enjoy a drink on the back deck or curl up in front of the fireplace. The fire pit provides a spot for making s’mores, stargazing, and watching fireflies.

The cozy living room has a smart tv and plenty of board games, puzzles, and books for those relaxing mountain evenings. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you'll need to cook meals, and there's also a great variety of fabulous restaurants around for the times you don't want to cook. When it's time to rest, we've made sure that our beds are super comfy for a great night's sleep. The master bedroom features a king size bed and the second bedroom has 2 twins. The cabin's been tastefully decorated and is equipped with all the comforts of home. Travelling with kids? We offer a pack-n-play, high chair, step stool, kids plates/utensils, and toys to make travelling with a family much easier.

The cabin is in a great location between Highlands and Cashiers - close enough to be convenient, but removed enough to enjoy the peace and quiet! Close to hiking trails, Lake Glenville, multiple golf courses, shopping, skiing, and more! A fantastic year-round destination with something for every season. We have a detailed welcome book to give you ideas for things to do, see, and eat in the area, and we're always happy to make recommendations to help you plan your trip! So come unwind, relax, and enjoy the mountain air. Longer stays are welcome, contact host for more information.

We really enjoyed this small cabin which was perfect for a couple and would be fine for a couple small kids also. There is only one bathroom but there is good water pressure and plenty of hot water for a shower. When we first arrived after 4 pm unfortunately the cabin had not been cleaned. This was not the fault of the host but apparently the cleaning company. The host was very responsive to compensate us but still we were tired and not expecting to have to clean our accommodations in order for us to stay there. But beside that everything else was excellent. The cabin is very comfortable and quiet as it’s located out in the country. The roads to get there are paved and in 15 min you can be back in Cashiers. Cashiers has a nice Ingles grocery and a Farmers Market for all your food needs. We would also recommend the BBQ at the Farmers Market (On the Side BBQ) for Take -Out. We really enjoyed kayaking on all the lakes in the area (bring your own boats):Lake Glenville, Cedar Cliff Lake, Bear Creek Lake and Wolf Creek Lake. All have public launch sites. A couple hikes which are outstandingly scenic are: Whiteside Mountain (15 min drive) and High Falls below the Lake Glenville dam. High Falls shortest trail is very challenging with lots of steep, often damp rock steps. There is another longer but safer trail called “Swinging Vine” off hwy 107 heading north after Lake Glenville. “All trails” has information on both or try local knowledge.

Wonderful stay!

This property was excellent! The living room is cute and perfect for a family or a group of friends. The kitchen is well equipped as well. The beds were wonderful and the house location is amazing. Beautiful porch to sip wine or coffee and the fire pit was an added bonus. We'll be staying here again!!

Hideaway Haven!

If you are looking for quiet, peaceful surroundings located in the mountains near Cashiers, NC, look no more! This casually elegant cabin has everything you need for comfort while visiting world class hiking and waterfall destinations. Just minutes from great restaurants and shops in Cashiers or Highlands, but tucked away in the hills and forest. We hope to come back!

Perfect Mountain Cabin

If you are considering this property, don't pass it up. It was spotless clean (and I am a clean freak), comfortable (including the beds), well stocked, and in a great location. Tucked away for peace and quiet, but close enough to enjoy Highlands, Cashiers, and all the surrounding mountains.

Relaxing!

Your property is inviting and cozy. The tasteful decor and amenities are well suited for a relaxing weekend retreat. The wooded site was a tranquil backdrop for a rainy weekend, but that was fine for us, as the well equipped kitchen gave us all we needed to cook, eat, stay in, read, watch movies, and just relax. Your cottage provided for a great retreat! Thank you!

Cozy house in Cashiers

We went to Cashiers to attend my brother’s birthday weekend and found this house which was literally within walking distance to my brother’s home. Very cozy and comfortable…especially the bed in the main bedroom. Nicely equipped kitchen and very quiet location amongst the trees. Liz was very easy to communicate with and answered any questions we had promptly.

Home away from home

There were three priorities when I searched for a place to stay near Cashiers/Highlands . The rental needed to be clean, have an indoor fireplace, and a pretty view from the porch. This home did not disappoint. We were very comfortable and it had everything we needed for our stay. I highly recommend this home to rent. Liz was very helpful and accessible. I would stay there again, and that to me , says it all.

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Liz! I live in Northern Idaho with my husband, 2 daughters, and dog. I have a passion for travel, exploring the outdoors, and great food. I speak English, Spanish, and German, and look forward to hosting guests from all over the world!

Why they chose this property

I used to visit Highlands as a kid, and have so many fond memories of roaming and exploring the mountains, rivers, and waterfalls. I am so excited to now be able to share this with not only my children, but with our guests as well. It's a really special area, where you can truly get away from it all, enjoy the outdoors, breathe that mountain air, and relax.
