It was chilly during our stay. The heat rises to the upper floor so family upstairs got too hot. The outside seems over- grown. If you have more than one vehicle there, parking is a bit hard. You have to back out of the driveway. However, if looking for a remote location away from everything then this is it. We were there for my son’s wedding which was somewhat near the cabin.

The cabin was an absolutely outstanding place to stay. Central to many of the waterfalls our crew was here to explore and not too far from a grocery store and restaurants. The cabin was clean and inviting and my kids had a great time looking at all the decorations and the horses across the street. I would definitely recommend the cabin.

Cute cabin!

We enjoyed our visit. Comfortable beds and quiet porch. Very small kitchen, but you have what you need. It really is under the trees and peaceful. Would have loved to have had places to walk-the walk to the creek was not possible because of high weeds. I didn’t catch that the checkout was an hour earlier than most places (10:00 am), so we were rushing after breakfast.

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 Walked into the house it was very dark and outdated and had musty smell.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!

Yellow Mountain Cabin

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.
