About this property
Mountain retreat by Lake Glenville: creekside, secluded, Cashiers - Glenville
North Carolina Mountain home in Cashiers/Glenville/Highlands area, nestled in trees, with Cedar Creek view & gated access to Lake Glenville, a few minute's walk from our home! Home has 3 levels: Main floor/mid level entry; stairs on main level access floors above & below. There are 3 bedroom en-suites (2 queen, 1 king/master). Each floor has a bedroom/full bath for ultimate privacy when needed! Great for 3 couples, a family w/several kids, or extended family. We have a queen sleeper sofa in lower level den. Sleeps 8 total: 6 bed spaces, 2 sleeper sofa spaces.
A few “must knows”: - We do NOT allow pets. No exceptions. Violations entail a fine & eviction. - We are a NON smoking residence (in house or on porches). No smoking litter on house grounds. This keeps our home clean and enjoyable for all guests! - We have: central A/C & heat- not needed often (3600’ elevation). We mostly use the plentiful windows, to enjoy cool, fresh mountain air, in addition to a whole house fan in upper level loft & bedroom ceiling fans. There is a window fan in master. Summers are generally temperate- we are a shaded mountain property. - We provide linens, “start of stay” paper products and many kitchen expendables. If you are a full house group for more than few days bring extra toilet paper & paper towels. BYO toiletries (shampoo etc). - We DO have necessary exterior home security monitoring & a ring doorbell. NO internal living space visual monitoring. ** There is only one other home near us- not occupied full time. We must assure NO trespassing occurs during times of vacancy.
Our bedroom set up offers optimal privacy, whether accommodating a large or extended family, or with adult children, or “friend” families with young children. 2 full length covered porches, with comfy furniture & lighting, provide wonderful outside space to relax & enjoy the gorgeous woodsy setting. 1. Mid/main level 2. Lower level…enjoyable day or night, rain or shine. House has 3 gas fireplaces - one per floor. They are used Sept- May; not available during summer months. Locations- Main floor: living room, Lower floor: den space, Top floor in master en-suite. Main/middle level: fully stocked, well organized and renovated galley kitchen, dining room, living room and 1/2 bath, as well as a queen bedroom/full shower bath en-suite. Lower level: living /den space, w/fireplace & slider door porch access , queen bedroom/full shower-tub bathroom, (also slider door to access back porch), and a desk/work area with high speed wifi internet with Ethernet connection and laundry. Upper level: loft sitting area, overlooks living room space, leads to a spacious, private king master ensuite w/fireplace, spa jet tub, full shower bath & his/hers counters/sinks. Such a relaxing retreat!
**FYI: we have new Starlink Internet for work or streaming, but we discourage gaming. Re: cell service- We have Verizon; (best mtn service). It is stronger in certain parts of house- and now stronger consistently, w/addition of cell booster. The cabin is located just off Hwy 107, 4 miles N of Cashiers intersection of 64 W and Hwy 107. We are 12 miles/20 min drive from Highlands. (Hwy 107 runs along the E side of beautiful Lake Glenville). Our home is a few hundred yards from HWY 107 and the lake. We have 2 driveways- one to front, one to back of house. Both are paved, significant inclines that are easily accessed by 2WD vehicles in normal seasonal weather, but in snow/ice FWD, AWD or 4WD vehicles are optimal. Otherwise, plan to use ice melt on drives.
This beautiful, Craftsman style home, was well built, with detail and care, to embrace the setting. There are many windows and plentiful, aesthetic porch space to optimize time spent outdoors. All in excellent condition, well cared for. We’ve preserved the charm, such as the warm pine flooring, but updated as we saw need. New appliances include: refrigerator, sink/faucet, 5 burner gas range cooktop, wall oven/microwave, dishwasher, keurig and toaster oven, large capacity washer and dryer. Both standard coffee pot & toaster also avail. . Fairly new gas fireplace inserts. High quality, carpet through bedrooms and stairwells. Kitchen is remodeled. Lower level hard surface flooring & furnishings/fireplace facing are all new. Things to do: Picnic, swim or simply relax at the lake - a 5 min walk, any time of day, pop a canoe, kayak or paddle board in the water. Nearby marina offers a variety of boating rentals!l Hang out at the creek- throw in a fishing line or splash around. Cashiers is a 10 min drive- convenient to Ingles grocery, Cashiers Farmer’s Market, many cute shops, boutiques and dining, hardware store, business needs/shipping. Highlands is 12 miles away- W on Hwy 64 with vistas/overlooks, hiking (Whiteside Mtn) & waterfalls all in reach. Other areas easy to reach from our home: Gorges State Park, Sapphire Valley, Sylva, Nantahala, Lake Toxaway, Brevard, Hendersonville, Asheville, Cherokee, Cullasaja Gorge. SO many waterfalls and hiking options. We are 1.5 hours SW of Asheville; 2.5 hours N of Atlanta. We use Asheville airport for ease- 1 hr 20 mins from house.

Great stay, responsive host, beautiful, clean and well appointed home. Would definitely stay there again if we’re in the area. This is a good place to stay if you’re attending a wedding at Castle Ladyhawke. It’s an easy 20 minute ride from there.
The house description was accurate, but no words can actually describe the peaceful and serene location. The host was fantastic and very accommodating! We used it for a family get together. Wish we could have stayed longer. We went in springtime. It was beautiful.
We had a wonderful stay. The kitchen was well appointed with more than enough pots, pans and cutlery to cook a great meal. My wife loved sitting on the back porch, in the quiet to read a book. The beds were comfortable. We would absolutely love to stay there again in the future. The only downside was the Florida Gators commemorative cups…I kid…GO DAWGS! Seriously, we loved our time here.
The property was well equipped with everything needed. Our only complaint would be that the first floor bedroom was very cold at night with temperatures in the 30s.
House was fine. Be prepared for lots of stairs which was not a problem for us. Wi-Fi is spotty at best. Streaming for movies is poor. No cell service at the house. Very close to Lake Glenville and access to the parking at the cedar point was a nice plus. Master bedroom was nice on the third floor. We did encounter a few issues while we were there. We fixed ourselves or worked with owner to get resolved. The house does sit on Bee tree road which turns out to be a busy road and lots of road noise.
We truly enjoyed our stay. This house is amazing. It is decorated with such attention to details. It has a great kitchen and very comfortable beds. Excellent location for exploring the waterfalls in the area and close to Highlands.
Great for the family kids enjoyed it very much! Great location and has some great views! Would definitely recommend this stay for anyone that wants a quiet nice getaway
Easy access entering the home at check in. Home is private and enjoys a view of the lake and a stream a short way down the hill. The three bedrooms are all comfortable and private. Master suite is huge! My wife and I went there with my daughter’s family which includes 2 teenagers. The home accommodated the 6 of us very comfortably. We all agreed we would return for another stay in the future.
Everything was as advertised and shown in the photos. Very easy to work with Jeff and he was quick to respond. The master bedroom and lower suite are awesome if you want some private and very roomy space. Lots of hikes and waterfalls nearby and Ingles grocery just down the road has Everything you will need if you plan to cook while you are there. The kitchen was well stocked and the appliances were great.
Well stocked, cozy and comfortable home. Two adults and two kids had a great long weekend. Close to Cashiers and walkable to the lake. Would highly recommend.
This is a lovely cabin nestled in the woods. The photos on the website accurately portray the property. The access is via a very steep driveway. Gas fireplaces make it comfy and cozy and you don't have to go looking for wood. There were a few spices, oil and vinegar, salt & pepper, flower & sugar in the pantry, probably left by prior renters. The refrigerator is totally cleaned out: no mayonnaise, mustard or ketchup so you will have to provide those items. Paper towels and toilet paper and dish detergent were there but you should replace whatever you use. Beds and pillows were comfortable. No odors. No fragrances used in laundry (which was really great since I am allergic to these things). The owner is extremely responsive. Access is through a keypad on the door.
Jeff was easy to work with and responded quickly to questions. House is in a great location. Fireplace was perfect for a chilly rainy day. The house was clean and well stocked. Highly recommend Whiteside Brewery right down the street.
