About this property

Newly Remodeled River-Front Cottage in Highlands

Tipsy River Cottage is an upscale professionally decorated 2 bedroom/2 bath river-front vacation home sitting directly on the Cullasaja River. This unique property is one of about a dozen homes that sit directly on the river above the Cullasaja River Gorge.

This adult-only vacation rental is ideal for one or two couples who want to be just outside of town in a unique and beautiful setting, but close enough to enjoy the great outdoors and everything Highlands has to offer.

Tipsy River Cottage is located in a lush and private setting with fantastic water views and easy access to the river. It is a one-level ranch home that has been completely renovated with a brand new kitchen, breakfast bar/island, a lovely dining area, laundry room, spacious living room, two separate private bedrooms and two full bathrooms.

The brand new master bedroom suite (king bed) sits overlooking the river and has a lovely en-suite bathroom with a walk-in tile shower (no bathtub) and a separate walk-in closet. The guest bedroom has a queen bed and plenty of closet space. The guest bath is accessible in the hallway and has a walk-in tile shower (no tub).

Our new open floor-plan living room/dining/kitchen has brand new appliances and furnishings. It has a large flat screen TV and plenty of seating with a wall of windows and views out to the deck/screened porch.

Tipsy River Cottage is a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the lovely view and peaceful sounds of the river. Outdoor amenities include a large deck and screened porch overlooking the river, comfortable outdoor seating, a grilling area, a water-side “fishing” deck and a fire pit with seating for four.

*** We are still working on a few final details outdoors (landscaping, window shutters, new front cedar beam entry); updated exterior cottage photos coming soon.

Tipsy River Cottage is in Highlands and is a short and beautiful scenic drive (7 m/15 min) to Main Street. It is close to several fun outdoor recreation activities including:
• Fly fishing and direct water access right on the property
• Less than 1 mile to Bust Your Butt Falls
• 3m to Cliffside Lake Recreation Area & Van Hook Glade Park Campground
• 5m to Bridal Veil Falls
• Less than 5m to the Cullasaja River Gorge
• 11m to Franklin

* We also have a 2BR/2 BTH cottage in town in Mirror Lake. Find our sister rental cottage, Mountain Laurel Tree House, here: (https://www.vrbo.com/9060542ha).
