About this property

Charming Cottage Close to Town with View of Chimney Top

Come unwind at a classic Cashier's cottage that has been completely renovated. Just over a mile to the Crossroads or to Ingles. Relax on the deck or dine on the screened porch while enjoying the Chimney Top Mountain view.

High end finishes and extras you would expect from luxury Cashier’s living. Artwork adorns the walls. The house has been lovingly furnished with family pieces and estate finds. Quartz countertops and custom cabinetry throughout.

Downstairs has the Master bedroom and first guest bedroom. The Master is well appointed with a Smart TV and an inviting king sized four poster bed. You have your own access to the deck with sliding doors. Custom drapes frame a beautiful mountain view. The bathroom features two sinks with a vanity in between. Sit here and gaze out on to the garden while you get ready for the day. This bathroom has a soaking tub and a separate shower. The guest bedroom has a charming four poster double bed, desk, loveseat, and a window seat under the bay window. Also with a Smart TV. Private bath with shower/tub combination.

The living room and dining area has a wall of sliding glass doors for lots of natural light and views. Plenty of seating in front of the Smart TV and gas log fireplace.

Kitchen is stocked with all the appliances you would expect and plenty of bar glasses and serving pieces to entertain. Williams Sonoma professional cookware and bakeware for your use. Eat at the breakfast table, bar, or my great-great grandmother's dining room table.

Upstairs is the "Book Nook" our family's favorite room. It is stocked with popular fiction, nonfiction, toddler board books, children's books, and those for young adults. Board games for kids and adults. Duplos, buildable magnets, coloring books/crayons, STEM building set, puzzles, and multiple decks of cards. Kids will love sleeping on the bunkbeds.

Down the hall is the second guest bedroom. It features a four poster Queen bed under large windows with a Smart TV. Bathroom with shower/tub combination and view of the mountains.

The screened in porch off of the kitchen is a peaceful place to sit and read or dine. Enjoy during the day or night with the fun outdoor lights. Use the corn hole/ladder ball game, croquet set, or volleyball/pickle ball (net set up upon request).

Our expansive deck is where the grilling can happen if you're so inclined. Guests can lounge in the chaises, chairs, or rockers. After dinner move to the fire pit area in the front yard to round out your evening.

We have thought of the little things so you don’t have to! Umbrellas, hiking sticks, two 6 port charger at each bedside (just bring your USB cord), an Echo Dot, first aid kits, picnic basket with plates/utensils, pack-n-play, space saver highchair/booster, and Hydro SPA toiletries to name a few.

**House is equipped with a whole house generator system. Feel confident staying in winter months!!**

Well appointed house close to center of town

Location is very close to center of Cashiers. Winding neighborhood road but worth the drive. Cozy home with everything you might need. The owner has great communication and is very responsive. Only negative is minimal closet storage. We loved making it our home away from home for the summer.

Peaceful get-away

We completely enjoyed our stay. Arriving in late May was a perfect time since everything was so green and flowers blooming everywhere. The home is clean and cozy and the owners were wonderful to work with. We loved dining at The Library in Cashiers and the shopping was fabulous. Only comment would be driving in this entire area from Highlands to Cashiers to Lake Toxaway is not for the meek of heart.

Great Location and Great Condition

This was our second time staying at this location and it did not disappoint. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need. The kids room has toys to keep little ones occupied for hours. The house is in pristine condition. Very clean and well maintained. The location is prefect. Secluded but very close enough to town.

Perfect house for a weekend getaway!

This house was exactly what we needed for a weekend getaway. The house was recently updated and in pristine condition. Had lots of toys and games to keep my little one busy. Located right in Cashiers but tucked away so it was quiet and had great views. We will be back!

What a wonderful surprise!

Fantastic comfy home, beautiful view from the deck, cozy living room with the fireplace burning and wonderful professional hosts. Little black bears in the backyard on occasion and some Whitetail deer in the front. Very polite visitors and we enjoyed interacting with them. I would highly recommend this home to anyone. Thanks so much for having us.

Best rental we’ve ever stayed in

This home is absolutely gorgeous! The inside is everything we thought it would be from the pictures but the outside areas are just stunning. Worth every penny and the owners could not have been more nice and accommodating. We were lucky enough to see a family of bears almost every morning while sitting on the deck with our coffee. That was an amazing experience for two Floridians! Had several great meals in both Cashiers and Highlands…house is an easy drive to both. We would recommend this home without hesitation to anyone looking for a relaxing, luxurios getaway. You will not be disappointed.

Perfect getaway

Property is fantastic!! Beautiful setting and the hosts have done a very nice job of remodeling this home and making it an ideal VRBO. They’ve paid attention to detail and anything we could have needed was there for us. Very clean & comfortable. Great communication from the host prior to and during our stay. Couldn’t have been more pleased with this property.

Incredible Stay

We just spent the week in Cashiers at this property and could not have been happier with our stay. The communication with Ashley was very pleasant, fast and thorough between text, email and the information packet provided. I'm not sure if I've stayed in a more well maintained and clean property. It wasn't a typical rental with a few issues, this property was maintained by people who have a high standard of quality and cleanliness. The house has been remodeled so well and the grounds were gorgeous. Kitchen had absolutely everything needed. We enjoyed the ability to sit on the deck or the covered screened in porch and appreciate the cooler temps and sound of rain in the afternoon. It was our first trip with a new baby and we couldn't have been more comfortable. We very much appreciated everything about this rental experience.

Why they chose this property

As a mom to littles, I wanted something close to town for grocery runs but with a view and privacy. We want this to be a home away from home to you as well! Come make memories and start your own traditions at the Wren's Nest.
