About this property

Kindling Falls - 60ft Waterfall!

Welcome to Kindling Falls, your luxury retreat in the mountains of Western North Carolina with your own private 60ft waterfall you can slide down.

This stunning 5 bedroom property sleeps 20 so that you're able to bring friends and family to experience the magic of staying here. Photos and words don't do this property justice. The beauty, hikes, restaurants, and activities of Highlands (12 miles) and Cashiers (15 miles) are just outside your door, but trust us––you won't want to leave.

Slide down the waterfall right outside your bedroom. Have bonfires on the island surrounded by a rushing stream. Swim in the natural 14ft-deep granite pool. Catch a rainbow trout right outside your door. Grill next to the sounds of the water running over the rocks. And that's just the exterior. This is a property your family will want to come to year after year and a place to make memories to last a lifetime.

Inside you'll find space for everyone with 5 bedrooms with a waterfront decks off each. Whether it's relaxing in the den surrounded by water on three sides or gathering around the table in the spacious dining room, sharing stories into the night, this home invites you to slow down.

**Gathering Spaces**
You enter the home into the Great Room with comfortable seating set before a stone fireplace, a game table for family fun and competition, and dining space to seat 12.

The kitchen is fully equipped for your holiday meals with a 6-burner gas stove and all stainless steel appliances.

Just off the kitchen sits the heart of the home––a den with a two-story wood burning fireplace and soaring windows that give the feeling the stream is rushing beneath your feet.

The waterfall isn't only outside. There is also a spa room with an interior waterfall and built-in 10 person hot tub.

There is an additional game room with bumper pool, darts, and games.

AMAZING House & Property
Our annual Christmas mountain getaway was extra special this year thanks to this gorgeous house and property. We highly recommend this property and talked about how fabulous it would be to visit during each of the four seasons. Our teenagers took advantage of the polar plunge opportunity this trip and great memories were made.

Magical
Everything about our stay was magical! What a beautiful property. Everyone loved picking out their rooms and each one was cozier than the next. We enjoyed building a fire with s'mores and spotted some really cool wildlife in the area. The thing we enjoyed most was definitely the rock slide waterfall. It is such an amazing feature and we enjoyed tubing down it. Then spending our time warming up in the hot tub that is conveniently located inside the property. Could not recommend staying here more, the hosts were very responsive to every question we had.

Fun for the whole family!
This home is one of a kind and gorgeous every where you look. The property has activities for all ages. We had 4, 5, and 7 year olds who played games, slide on tubes down the waterfall, played in the river for hours, roasted marshmallows, and then took a dip in the hot tub. The adults were able to relax and enjoy watching the kids play. There is a fully stocked kitchen where we made meals to feed the large group. All conveniences were made available by the hosts. Highly recommend!

NC AT IT FINEST
Wonderful home with loads of room. Close to attractions but yet you get the feeling out in no man's land. Waterfall is so cool. Has everything needed for kitchen but fridge ice maker doe not work. Controls for AC are a bit confusing.

An Ideal Place
If you need a place to reconnect or just get away from the daily routine, this is it. You are literally in the midst of nature while having all the comforts of the modern world. From fun playing in the water and rock slide, swinging over the water, campfires to just sitting on one of the balconies watching, we never felt the need to leave for other entertainment. The kitchen was completely stocked, beds ultra comfortable and space for all being together or having my own space to read. Precious family time with amazing memories. We’ll be back!!
