I’m tempted
To say ‘don’t stay here’ so I can be sure to have it open for me when we return—in the spring and fall, and maybe summer too. Incredible views and easy walk to the both Whiteside Mountain trail-arguably the most stunning and most popular in western NC. Easily accommodated the 4 couples. Porch with fireplace and views that don’t quit. Kitchen has 3 of everything you need. Also, these are the most responsive hosts I have ever worked with.

Hurricane Helene Stay
We traveled to this VRBO for our dear friend's daughter's wedding knowing Hurricane Helene was predicted to hit. And boy did it. This home is fabulous. Everything we needed and more. Our group ended up being fewer and much to our surprise the VRBO was equipped with a large generator that kicked in during the midst of the hurricane when power went off. The generator ran for 30 hours before we decided to leave a day early. Up until the time the cell towers went down our hosts were reaching out, concerned, very accommodating and gracious. Just the best! Highly recommend this VRBO. Though we didn't get to enjoy the amazing view we had one 5 min glimpse of how spectacular it is.

Beautiful home with amazing views
This property is a short drive outside of Highlands. It offers arguably some of the best views and the home itself is beautiful. The kitchen is great, there are spacious decks and ample parking (something that isn't always the case with mountain homes). Would definitely stay again.

Great location and excellent views
Stayed here during spring break with my family. The house was great, plenty of room and clean. Great location between highlands and cashiers. The views were very good. It s also walking distance to one of the best trails on the area. Owners were responsive when we had an issue.

Adult girls getaway
We had an amazing girls getaway to this beautiful mountain home! We built a lovely fire in the great room and enjoyed the incredible scenic views from the panoramic windows. Kitchen was fully stocked with all of the tools we needed to prep meals for the weekend. The space heaters were helpful to keep us warm since the weather never got above freezing that weekend. The beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and can't wait to return when the weather is warmer and we can explore the area more.

Outstanding home with all of the amenities
What a beautiful home with wonderful views!! We had 7 adults and 2 children under 2 and everyone had the most comfortable accommodations. The home is perfectly located to walk to one of Highlands most sought after hiking trails. The wood burning fireplace is stunning and the house beds were very comfortable and kitchen well stocked. Could not ask for anything more in a vacation rental. Also, the hosts are very responsive!!

Inaccurate bedroom situation
The house was fine. Loved the outdoor area. We had 4 adult couples and the bedroom whose door leads to the kitchen has 2 small beds which beside location was too small for 2 adults. In the downstairs rec room was a bed in the corner. Really not a 4 bedroom house. It would have been nice to have shower soap provided. What soap was there had hairs in it.

Wonderful weekend!
We had a wonderful weekend celebrating a family wedding in Highlands. The home was comfortable and had lots of space for our group. Unfortunately we had a rainy weekend - so could not enjoy the outside space as much as we hoped. The inside living space was cozy with ample seating, a fireplace and lots of televisions for college football.

Perfect family birthday celebration
This wonderful home sits atop a beautiful mountain, which brings cool temperatures and wonderful long-range views. The house was the perfect accommodation for our family of young adults. The ensuite bedrooms, allowed us all to spread out and also enjoy time together on the fabulous large, covered porch and cozy inside den. The kitchen was very large and well equipped and for our needs. Centrally located, we were able to easily travel to town to great restuarants, golf, and nearby hikes. We will return!

Beautiful home with amazing views
I stayed at this property with my wife, her parents and our 4 year old son. Let me start by saying the pictures don’t do this home justice. The home is extremely spacious, decorated beautifully, and has an extremely “cozy” feel to it. Our favorite part of the home was the amazing outdoor area. The deck has ample seating with a tv, fireplace, bbq grill and those amazing Mountain View’s. The living room is also spectacular with a wood burning fireplace, large flat screen tv and plenty of comfortable seating for everyone. We spent a significant amount of our trip just enjoying the home/ views. Kitchen is well equipped with high-end appliances and everything you need to cook a meal. All of the bedrooms were well appointed with very comfortable beds and equally nice bathrooms. The location of the home is very convenient to Highlands and Cashiers. We really liked Highlands because of the great selection of restaurants and lots of shopping. Owners of the property were very easy to communicate with, but we didn’t require anything as their home was in stellar condition. Would definitely come back next time we come to Highlands.

Great view and location, central air not working upstairs
We stayed at this house for a wedding at Cullasaja Club. There were 8 of us total. It is very close to the Whiteside Mountain trail parking as well. Beds were very comfortable and the view cannot be beat! The only thing we found to be strange was all of the screened in windows were open upon arrival and it was a very hot weekend in May (83 F). The AC was not working upstairs, and although the owner was very responsive to phone calls even late a night, they were unable to get someone to come out and fix it during our weekend stay. Keeping the screened in windows open helped cool things off at nighttime. They have a highchair and a number of kids toys downstairs. Plenty of towels as well which is always nice! Overall we enjoyed our stay, but not having working central air upstairs seemed odd for what we felt was a "luxury rental at a premium price". Otherwise this was an incredible house and we enjoyed the patio, view, and location.
