    quick ski trip
    The house is absolutely charming and quite spacious. Had everything this family of 6 needed. Love the master on main with additional bedrooms upstairs. The 2 full baths was what sealed the deal for us! and the price and location COULD NOT BE BEAT! We appreciated the supply of games and the multiple porches. We appreciated the labels on the light switches but could have used more! That was our biggest issues, finding the right light switches! So obviously, we didn't have any issues, we just had a lovely time.

    Great location for a week in the mountains.
    This cozy two story house sits on a hill overlooking a lake. It was in a beautiful location & quite private. Nice decorations throughout the home & All the beds were very comfy. A nice plus-a large fire pit! Would like to visit again when we can.

    Great stay in a comfy cabin!
    We stayed with out children who are 11, 4, and 3. The kids loved the cabin and the amenities. We hit the beach or pool almost everyday and enjoyed the doc in the afternoon. Great kitchen with lots of extras needed to cook ( lots of pots and pans etc ) overall had a lovely stay. Would definitely recommend !

    Fabulous Weekend at a Comfortable Cabin by a Lake
    We were looking for a peaceful, comfy place to stay in the NC mountains, and this place was just that and more. The house was roomy and tastefully decorated and the natural surroundings were lush and beautiful! We had a short set of stairs down to the dock on a lovely small lake with 3 kayaks - one for each of us. There was a great deck in the back off the living room that looked over the lake, and a fire pit in the front yard. The house's location made it easy to drive to Cashiers and Highlands for shopping and restaurants and the kitchen was well enough equipped so that we could cook some meals at home too. Thank you for a great stay! We hope to come back again one of these days. Meredith, Diane, Jean

    Wonderful Cottage
    Had the most wonderful time! Only 1 tiny snafu at check in (some miscommunication on the code - agency's fault, not the owner's). Once the owner was made aware, it was resolved quickly. (Owner was super nice!) We (me, hubby, 15 yo boy, 12 yo boy, our dog) spent the long weekend kayaking (provided!), fishing (off our own dock!), hiking (waterfalls!), relaxing (2 decks!), making s'mores by the campfire (firepit!) and just having a blast. The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. Great location, too! We will be back.
