Special Place

Selina was a great communicator who gave great directions and awesome recommendations. The entire property is even better in person than it looks like online. The cabin is well decorated and super cozy. Unfortunately we did not get to use the fire pit, but it was adorable. Selina had even put fatwood and a lighter in a bucket next to the firewood. She had also supplied smore items and little snacks. The hike on the property is steep, but worth the view at the top! Selina's attention to detail was so appreciated, She literally thoght of everything you might need! while at their cabin. The location is also convenient between both Highlands and Cashiers. You won't regret your stay here!

Incredible location. Close enough to be convenient to everything yet remote enough to be secluded. Perfect accommodations for the two of us. Everything that we could think of was provided on site by the owners. Can’t wait to have an excuse to stay again.

Perfect cabin getaway!

This cabin was wonderful! Great hike on property to top of mountain with beautiful hidden gazebo and fire pit area, but a climb! Place was fully equipped for cooking with little extra snacks and staples to welcome you. Great firepit out back and close to many waterfalls, hikes and of course Highlands. A gem of a place!

Quick getaway

Loved the house and all the little extra amenities added to make us feel like special guests! All the decor was beautiful. Hike on property was nice, enjoyed s’mores at the fire pit. It is far from highlands but that was noted when I booked. Only complaint would be us Floridians aren’t experienced on these snaky roads as everyone passed us by! lol wonderful place to enjoy a weekend getaway! Thanks for sharing!

This place is absolutely spectacular. The pictures don’t do it any justice. Super clean inside and out. It’s the perfect place to stay for a getaway. If I could rate it higher I would. The host was super helpful and very easy to communicate with. We will definitely be making this our regular place to stay.

I wish I could keep it secret

This is one of those places I would selfishly like to keep secret but that would be unfair. This is a lovely little cottage. The hosts are very welcoming. Feels wonderful from the second you walk in the door. Selina does an excellent job of sharing information about the surrounding area. I really wish I could have enjoyed the cute screened porch, but an early cold snap prevented that. But we were nice and snug inside.

Refreshing

We really needed to unplug and this was the place! The home and property are absolutely beautiful. Selina & John have definitely gone the extra mile to make their guests very comfortable. Super close proximity to the lake - and just a short drive into Cashiers. Morning coffee on the screened in porch was Heaven! We enjoyed a camp fire on our last night, and wished we had done it every night - where can you be outside for a couple hours from twilight to well past dark, where you aren't chewed up by mosquitos, or other no-see-ums? We never got bit once in over 2 hours! The hike up the mountain was a workout, but very much worth it - fantastic views and plenty of space to enjoy a toast to celebrate the accomplishment. I can imagine how breathtaking the views must be in the fall. Thank you for a refreshing week!

Beautiful home and amazing attention to detail

Stop your search, you found the perfect spot. As a host myself I can tell when someone is doing it just as a business or because it's their passion. This home is clearly a passion project. Incredible quality (front gate towels, snacks and drinks and fully stocked kitchen for cooking) this is the perfect getaway. If you stay here you won't regret it.

Fantastic Cabin in the Mountains

We booked this property to celebrate a significant birthday and could not have chosen a more perfect spot. This cabin is well appointed and thoughtfully designed. It was the best decision to book this property, from the cozy kitchen and living space to the bedroom and screened porch. The firepit was well stocked with wood. If you do the hike, it’s steep but worth it. A great way to get your exercise in! Thanks Selina for making our stay memorable.

Fantastic property

This is a special place. Such a private and relaxing property, we didn’t want to leave. The cabin and surrounding landscape are just beautiful and very well maintained. Everything is thoughtfully appointed. It is obvious that the owners took great care designing the cabin. So many special touches and amenities to enjoy. Great shower pressure, comfy bed with luxury linens. Sipping coffee on the lovely screened in porch in the morning to the firepit and smores in the evening. The onsite hike to amazing views was awesome. The hosts were very responsive and helpful in suggesting local restaurants and points of interest. We were very satisfied with their recommendations.

Why they chose this property

My husband and I have owned this 50 acre property for 25 years. Our house overlooks Lake Glenville and was built in the early 1900’s. The 1937 Cabin was built by the original owner for his son and new bride in 1937 and is the only rental on the property. The 1937 Cabin is located on the north side of the property, very private and 7 acres or so from our house which you cannot see. The 1937 Cabin has been completely renovated from top to bottom with no cost spared in furnishings. Many improvements have been made over the years including planting almost 4000 rhododendrons and is just breathtaking in May when they are in bloom. This property is one of the last large acreage overlooking Lake Glenville that hasn’t been developed.
