Cottage · Private Lake + Dock · Walk to Town
Imagine waking up in a charming mountain cottage where history meets modern comfort, just steps away from the best of Cashiers village. Nestled in the scenic landscape of the western NC Carolina mountains, Cattail Cottage offers a private retreat for those looking to recharge and reconnect with nature.
The fully renovated 2br / 2ba cottage has more than 3 acres of serene property, including Camp Cattail, that includes a dock, fishing kayak, fire pit, patio, hammock, park grill, & picnic table.
PROPERTY:
This unique 3+ acre property sleeps up to four guests and has its own private lake that provides a peaceful experience of our mountain environment. Terrific for watching birds, turtles, an otter, and other wildlife.
COTTAGE HISTORY:
Cattail Cottage was built in 1937 on land that was once home to the Cherokee. Talmadge Seldon and Maude Lance started a lumber mill in 1932 and began "half-round log siding" construction and began selling lots in a subdivision they named, Lancewood. While fully renovated, Cattail Cottage maintains some of its original charm with the D-log siding and original sweet gum flooring.
OUTDOOR AMENITIES:
- Exclusive dock - Provided fishing kayak - Fire pit - Coffee bar with Keurig, drip coffee maker, French Press, starter pods, teas, sugar to get your day started. - Patio - Deck - Hammock - Park grill - Picnic table - Corn hole - Multiple bird houses and feeders for bird watching - Board games, puzzles, and books for kids and adults.
DOGS:
- We are dog friendly for up to one house-broken and well-behaved dog that is two years or older and 50-lb or less. Please disclose age and breed of dog and add non-refundable fee of $125/dog when booking; see additional requirements below under House Rules).
LOCATION:
(.4) We are an easy walk to the "crossroads of Cashiers," which is the intersection of Hwy 107 and Hwy 64.
(.2) Cashiers Ramble - a walking path that rambles around many favorite locations such as the Farmer's Market, Buck's Coffee Cafe, Whiteside Brewing, Slabtown Pizza, the Village Green (which includes a playground, elevated boardwalk, memorial gardens, and summer concerts) as well as other shops and restaurants.

We loved our stay at Cattail Cottage. It was cozy, comfortable and close to the shops in Cashiers. There were several outdoor spaces to enjoy. The kitchen has a great coffee/tea bar and it was stocked with samples for your visit. The owner also left a snack basket that we throughly enjoyed. Checkout was a breeze!
