"The location is fantastic—you're right in the heart of Cashiers, making it easy to walk or drive to local shops and restaurants. The property is situated on a fairly quiet dirt road, the listing photos accurately represent the space, and everything was clean upon arrival.A few things prospective guests should know before booking:The listing states that the best way to reach the host is by text. I texted before our stay to ask what type of coffee maker was provided, but didn't receive a response...

Top Highlands Hotel Reviews

The Skyline Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Always a pleasure staying here, nice rooms and a huge plus to have the Oak Restaurant on-site! A big shout out to the great bartenders! All the staff was amazing! I highly recommend this place, we will be back for our third time here!"

Outpost Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely wonderful stay! Such a vibe! Friendly and helpful staff. This quaint mountain retreat is full of thoughtful details that make it feel cozy, almost like home. You can get wine in the lobby or bring your own. They even thought to include a wine opener in your room. Having a fireplace right in our room, an amazing showerhead, K-cup coffee, snacks, drinks, and a TV made it tempting never to leave. The light breakfast available each morning and the cozy lobby hangout added to the welcoming atmosphere. But the outdoor fireplaces, cozy seating areas, and even a fireside movie under the stars made the experience even more memorable. The town was super cute too and we loved having dinner and drinks at their sister property, HmH. We loved every minute and can’t wait to come back!"

HIGH SPEED FIBER OPTIC WIFI; Tranquil Treehouse on 2.5 Acres; Affordable Luxury

10/10 Excellent
