Wedding weekend

We stayed here for the weekend for a friends wedding. Loved it. Property is clean and comfortable. Owner easy to contact and very responsive. Will definitely recommend to anyone. Road to the house is not the easiest but well worth it.

Charming and spacious mountaintop house

High atop the Cashiers area this very secluded retreat was a wonderful spot for my self and my husband along with my 2 brothers and their wives. Bright great room with living area large and bright was terrific. Everything was immaculate and the owner is nearby not to close but charming and explained this property has been in her family since 1800’s or before. We would return!! The gravel road takes about 5 minutes and your 10 minutes beyond to Cashiers!!

Weddinh

It was inconvenient due to the many trips we had to make into town over the 3 days. I thought it was closer to town and not 20-25 mins away. Otherwise it was a excellent property and Sheila was very helpful and accomadating!

Beautiful secluded retreat

The house was lovely and very clean. The owner was accomodating and very friendly. The screened-in porch was my favorite. The drive is a bit of a hike up the mountain on a dirt road, which did not bother us because it added to the quietness of the property, but good for anyone to know ahead of scheduling. We would definitely come back and I highly recommend if you really want some time to unplug.

Beautiful Mountain-Top Home With Excellent View

This Kettle Creek home has an absolutely stunning view of the surronding country-side, especially while the fall colors are on the surrounding trees. It is very well kept up, and comfortable inside, and is quiet at night. I would say that it is the most beautiful place we've stayed at in all of our trips to the Highlands/Cashiers area. The only minor difficulties we had were spotty internet service (not the owner's fault at all - Frontier is probably the only isp available), and steep, non-paved road access for the last 2 miles or so, which made it a bit difficult for our two-wheel-drive van (not a difficulty if you have 4 wheel drive). The beauty and comfort of the home more than made up for the few minor difficulties, and it is an excellent choice for a restful, peaceful vacation spot. Thank you!

Renter Beware!!!

I never complain just want future renters to know the Description of property is not quite accurate. On top of a mountain with the WORST gravel road to get to the property. No Wi Fi for anyone needing it. If you don't need it you are good. Owners personal property including family photos all over the home. Did not have that mountain getaway feel. Felt like l was intruding in someone's Home. Little things here and there need to be repaired. Mildew smell throughout downstairs TV downstairs does not work and was unplugged. Just felt like for the money there were things that needed to be addressed and owner did not disclose them. Could not wait to leave and will never be back. Also Owner lives in garage apartment next to the house which felt like again you were intruding.

Visit in October

Overall - great. Large house at the end of a very steep, curvy hill. The beds were a little misleading from the write-up. We were missing at least one twin. 2 people dropped out or we would have had a bed problem. Sheila is easy to reach and very helpful. We did enjoy our stay.

Wonderful stay!

The house was spacious and clean and very well-stocked - perfect for our group of 7! Sheila responded very quickly to every question I had and went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed. She even brought over some homemade pumpkin bread!

Idillic mountain oasis

Incredibly beautiful property - total oasis on top of a mountain. Fully stocked cozy home with everything you could ever imagine wanting or needing. We were very comfortable during our 4 week stay and felt right at home immediately. Sheila is extremely responsive and a very kind, warm person. I recommend this house whole heartedly - just be aware of the fact that it is very remote and you have a 15 min drive to town. Oh and the FirePit is beyond amazing. Total mountain dream :)

EXCELLANT

I can't say enough about our stay. The house was immaculate and had lots of space. So easy to get to, even in the dark. Location was perfect with mountain views, privacy,, and a short ride into the town of Cashiers. I can't say enough great things about our hostess, Sheila. She was quick to answer any questions we had and even told my husband some great places to go hiking and seeing waterfalls close by. She was very hospitable. The house was well stocked with pretty much everything you need. This was the BEST place we have ever stayed, using VRBO. Thank you again, Sheila. My family and I had the best time at your place!! You're the BEST!!

Wonderful location, but the listing is too modest

This is a very pleasant home, well stocked with everting we could want. Modernized kitchen, very comfortable furniture, and very responsive hostess. The house is at the end of a well maintained dirt road, so if it snows you should have all wheel drive (Sheila did alert us to that fact when we booked for Christmas). Best treat if all…. We needed to have a Christmas away from home where family could all gather and found a home beautifully decorated for the season.

Peaceful and quaint

We stayed at this property for a week and were very comfortable! The house feels like a well-loved home with everything you can possibly need. Bed was comfortable and there were plenty of linens. The house is at the end of a gravel road on a small hill with a nice yard and a great screened porch. It is super quiet! Very easy to get to downtown Cashiers and Highlands.

Well stocked House

We had a very comfortable stay. The house is well furnished & the beds are very comfortable. The house is also well stocked with all the amenities that you will need. Sheila Owens, the hostess, was very accommodating & quickly responded to any needs that we encountered. Being from the "low country" the only unfavorable for us was the approximately 2 miles of unpaved & very hilly access to the property. With that aside, we had a very nice vacation at this fine property.

A Great Getaway

We had a great mountain top serene stay. The weather wasn’t the best, but a great stay none the less. Note: Check the local weather before packing the vehicle and leaving home. If winter or wet weather is in the forecast you may wanna take an AWD or 4WD due to the steep grade leading to the house.

Perfect family Christmas

Our family - grown daughter, 2 sons and 2 daughter in law husband and myself, loved staying in Shelia’s home. She thinks of everything you could need. Kitchen had every utensil and appliance we could possibly need to cook our holiday meals. Beds were comfortable, home has so much space. Nice out door spaces. Shelia thinks of everything you would need for a wonderful visit. She decorated the house for Christmas, including a beautiful tree and down to setting the dining room table complete with decoration for Christmas dinner. To top off our great holiday, it snowed and we enjoyed a magician White Christmas. Will definitely rent this home again. Thank you Shelia!
