Nice mountain getaway

Very nice property for a mountain getaway. Location was great with easy access to Brevard, Highlands and Cashiers. Multiples hikes with views/waterfalls close by. There was plenty of room for a large group to stay with multiple beds throughout. Kitchen is well stocked and the outside grill works great. Downstairs has lots of options for recreation including a pool table, video games, darts and a hot tub outside. Would definitely consider staying again.

Great Experience in a Tucked Away Escape

Just as advertised- quiet, beautiful, although secluded neighborhood. The hosts were extraordinarily communicative and very, very easy to work with - amongst the best we’ve ever experienced. House is well equipped with anything you could need and set up very well for large families. Easy drives to Lake Toxaway, Cashiers, Highlands, and lots of parks and waterfalls!

Outstanding !

We had a wonderful time at this property. The house was exactly as described and pictured. It was exceptionally clean and extremely comfortable. Communication was excellent with an immediate response to any question. It was a very convenient location for visiting family at Lake Toxaway. My grandchildren loved the game room downstairs ( as did their parents and grandpa) .Brooke, the property manager, was a delight to work with. We would love to return! A beautiful very quiet area. We will absolutely return!

Great for Getaway

Wow. This house exceeded our expectations. We traveled with 2 families and 4 kids. The downstairs area is perfect for a tween/teen getaway. Very clean and well appointed. The house is totally finished and upgraded nicely. Well thought out, we weren't missing anything. There is not a closet in the 2nd upstairs bedroom, but there are tons of places for storage throughout the house. Convenient to the Pantertown hiking area. Although you cannot use Lake Toxaway because it is private, there is plenty else to do. I'm one of these people that likes to stay in a new place each time I travel, but I would stay here again. That's the highest compliment I can make.

gnats

Our stay was very pleasant with a very nice location. We had a simple issue with mold int he coffee maker which was quickly resolved by our purchase of a new coffee maker and the Manager reimbursing us immediately and for more than submitted. If there was any one thing that may have been considered as a negative it would be the presence of gnats in the Kitchen, we tried everything we could think of to minimize from Dawn dish soap in bowls, vacuuming, bug spray, removal of anything we felt may be contributing, etc without success. No fault to the owner or manager just one of those things, I'm sure we have all had a similar issue in our own homes.

Cute, cozy place

The house was very well stocked with just about everything you could need for a few days. Comfortable beds, chairs, and couches. We enjoyed the mountain views and close proximity to waterfalls and outdoor adventures. Children enjoyed the games downstairs. Easy check in/out. Very responsive and accommodating host. Will remember property for future travel to the area.
