This house was perfect for our family over the Thanksgiving holiday. Kitchen is nicely appointed so we had everything we needed (we did bring a large roasting pan for the turkey). Fabulous location between Highlands and Cashiers. We have stayed at many VRBO properties and this is definitely in the top tier.

Excellent as always

We have stayed at this property several times, and it never disappoints. It has actually gotten better as there have been improvements to the kitchen supplies and decorating. The towels are soft, too. We enjoy the firepit on the deck every night. We like being in a gated neighborhood at the top of the mountain. Our kids like to explore the property, and we usually see deer daily. Easy to get to both Cashiers and Highlands for groceries and dinner.

Charmingly Peaceful Weekend Getaway

Our family recently had the pleasure of staying at Joe’s beautiful mountain home for the weekend. From the sun lit windows to the spotless kitchen and spacious bedrooms, our expectations were exceeded from the moment we stepped foot inside. The property boasted beautiful decks outside that provided the perfect view to admire the fall foliage as well as reconnect with nature and enjoy the crisp fall air. Downstairs, kids and adults alike were able to enjoy the two game rooms that featured shuffle board, foosball, pool, poker, arcade games, and more. This house truly had something for everyone. We came in hopes of having a peaceful staycation in the scenic Highlands and were given exactly like that and more. Joe was communicative and considerate in all aspects of our stay and went above and beyond to ensure we had nothing but the best experience at his home. Ever since visiting this property we are already looking for dates to come back and can’t recommend this tucked away haven enough to anyone interested in exploring the Highlands.

Another wonderful stay

This is our fourth time here and every time gets better. The linens and towels are always spotless and of the highest quality, and new state of the art pans were added to the already very well stocked kitchen. Hurricane Helene impacted the area prior to our arrival, but the host let us know in detail that we could expect no issues and there were none. Another wonderful set of memories for our family.

We love it here

This is our third time at this property, and it is our favorite rental spot in highlands. The views are lovely and the neighborhood is safe and quiet. We like to hike Whiteside which is right down the road, and we like to pop into Cashiers and Highlands so being directly between the two is perfect. Property is always clean and comfortable and easy to get in and out. We will absolutely be back soon!

Perfect in every way!

We had a weekend girls’ getaway for my sister’s 40th birthday, and our accommodations couldn’t have been more perfect! Everything was wonderful — the kitchen, porches, bedding, and bathrooms! Having traveled a lot and stayed in multiple house rentals in Highlands and hotels including the Old Edwards Inn and Cottages at Julep Farm, I can definitely say I felt most at home this trip! Joe was always a delight to talk to, and you can tell they really care about this place. Will definitely be back!! Thank you, Joe, for sharing your lovely home. It was definitely hard to leave!!

Excellent house!

We stayed at this house for the Highlands Motoring Festival. It was the perfect house for us. What we really appreciated was how clean, specious and well appointed this home was. It was very modern feeling, light and airy, and had everything we needed. The main floor has two king bedrooms, and one with twin beds. The finished basement has another bedroom with two double beds. The weather was perfect for sitting outside on the decks at night. We appreciated the flat driveway and the ability to park in the garage since we had 3 Ferraris with us that are tough to manage in the mountains. The only issue was the location was a solid 15 minute drive to downtown Highlands. We didn’t mind because we had a designated driver, but if you’re drinking or not comfortable driving at night on dark, winding mountain roads, this might be a bit tricky for you. But the house is perfect and being in a gated neighborhood was also a plus. We would rent again. Thank you!

Great, spacious, well renovated home

This house is great for a large group or family. The kitchen is very nice and the entire house has been renovated. There are good views. The house is a short 0.7 mile walk from the Whiteside Mountain trailhead. Which is itself a 2.0 mile hike. So that is nice to do without having to get in the car. The house is quiet and secluded. I would note that it is at least a 15 minute drive through winding roads to get to Highlands or anywhere else.
