Mountain getaway.

We loved staying in one of the cabins at Five Apple Farm. The cabin was wonderful and we used the fireplace and the fire pit often. We had the facility to ourselves for most of our stay.

Beautiful peaceful property!

After a failed trip to Switzerland due to airline issues, my husband I checked for any mountain rentals at the LAST minute. We happened to find this and immediately booked. It did not disappoint! Beautiful property to walk and amazingly peaceful for our stay. The house had everything you would need…we cooked and went out to dinner. The king bed was so comfortable!! Absolutely will be back - what a blessing to have found this!

Wonderful Mountain Cottage

We had a wonderful stay at Limbertwig Cottage! The cottage was very well appointed for staying 8 days! Kitchen has everything you need. We loved the proximity to our favorite hikes and to Highlands! The only thing lacking was a broom for the front porch! We would definitely book again!

Complete peace

This was our 2nd stay at Five Apple Farms. What a great escape. Sitting on the lovely porch and hearing not a single thing but birds and the wind and the trees rustling is heavenly. Just a short drive to Main Street, without all the bustle. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and will be back.

Fall Get-away for our family

Lovely cabin in a woodsy setting, perfect for fall leaves. The house was cozy and the beds comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed the location and the wildlife, (my son-in-law spotted a bear!). We will definitely visit again. Short drive to center of town was a plus.

Five Apple Farms Estate October Vacation

Arrived October 12 -Departed October 17 2021 We flew into Asheville from Destin, FL Sunday evening October 10th. Toured the Biltmore Mansion and estate and had lunch and dinner in the surrounding area. Ate twice @ Tupelo Honey in Asheville. Great food and Service !!!! Upon our arrival at the Five Apple Farm estate, we were pleasantly pleased to find such a comfortable, clean and charming mountain Cabin . We immediately built a roaring fire in the huge stone fireplace. 🔥 and settled in for the evening. The next morning we awoke to be visited by 2 white tail Deer 🦌 wondering the well kept grounds below our cabin deck . The weather was sunny and mild our entire stay. We timed our visit perfectly to enjoy the fabulous Fall foliage.🍁🍁 Thanks for everything!!! Bob & Mona Destin, Florida

Beautiful property

About 5 miles from Main Street in Highlands. The last mile, a dirt/gravel road is a little daunting in the rainy week we were there, but once you're there, it's a perfect spot for enjoying mountain tranquility. Two identical cottages nearby would make it a great 3-family gathering venue.

Comfortable and Cozy Cabin

We had a great stay with our two young kids at Limbertwig. It’s so quiet and other members of our family stayed in two of the other cabins, so it made for an excellent place for a large family to gather in the mountains. We enjoyed being between Cashiers and Highlands and could easily get to both towns. Would definitely recommend!
