Waterfalls with grands

Waterfalls visit with one senior citizen, a 15 year old and an 11 year old. Lovely accommodation and cozy. Never did figure out how to get the lamps to turn on in the master, but managed with my flashlight to be able to read. We all love the homey feel and enjoyed the little tall grass walk to see the creek on the property. We would stay here again!

Wedding trip

We were very happy with our accommodations at The Cabin. We really didn't get to enjoy being at the house because it was a quick come and go. I appreciated the host allowing us to check-in earlier due to a 5:00 wedding in Highlands. We would definitely stay here again. My only complaint is the additional fees added to the nightly fee.

Disappointed

Drove there from Florida. Pulled in yard very grown up. We have a brand new truck and it took many tries to get it turned around without getting it scratched up with brush and low hanging tree limbs. Could not back out due to it being a very busy road. Walked into the house it was very dark and outdated and had musty smell. We did not stay I made arrangements to stay our week at another place. Very disappointed.

Cute Place!

This property was just what we needed for an overnight stay. There is plenty of room inside for the 3 bedrooms to comfortably accommodate our group. The house was clean and had all the basic ammenities you could need. Joy and Steeve were very responsive and helpful! I wish we could have stayed longer to explore the surrounding woods of the cabin!

Cozy cabin in the mountains

Cabin was easy in - easy out location. Location was half way between Cashiers and Highlands. Small cabin, but plenty enough room....with a lot of character! I wish we would have had longer to stay, but went up for a family member's wedding in Highlands.

Quiet and Comfortable get away

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin, mostly because of the cool weather. The rooms are cozy and comfortable and the setting is very peaceful. The only things we missed were any sort of view or an easy place to walk (other than the road.)

Charming Cabin

Great cabin for our family to relax after busy days exploring the beautiful area. As others have already mentioned, the kitchen is small, furniture is older, the downstairs bedroom has an open entry, and the fireplace gives off a smoke smell even when not in use. However, we expected all these things and had a very comfortable stay. We especially enjoyed relaxing and bird watching on the back porch rocking chairs and visiting the two horses across the street. We hope to visit again!

Quaint cabin

Exactly as advertised. 15 minute drive gets you to Cashiers or Highlands. Everything worked. Comfortable beds. Small but functional kitchen. Very clean. Did smell like a wood burning fireplace (since there is one) so sensitive noses take note. Would absolutely stay here again.

Cleanest property of any of my stays!

This property was just what we expected based on pictures and previous reviews. It has the character of a home of its age. And, yet you can tell that the owners take care of it. It feels solid, cozy and comfortable. Yes, the kitchen is small. However, it was entirely functional for basic food prep. We will stay again on a future trip

Peaceful Paradise

My wife and I were looking for a quick trip to get away for the weekend and just relax. The Cabin was perfect for what we were looking for. The rocking chairs on the back porch are the perfect cure for whatever ails you. The cabin is remote, but its just a short drive to both Highlands and Cashiers. Lastly, the cleanliness of the cabin was great. We are already looking forward to returning when we can stay longer.

Lovely!

The cabin on Yellow Mountain is an adorable, beautifully decorated place that met our needs perfectly. In town for a wedding, but wished we booked longer just so we could chill on the front porch or do some hiking in the beautiful NC mountains. Would definitely stay here again if ever in the area.
