About this property

Glen Falls Cabin, 3 Private Suites, 2 Fireplaces, Fire Pit, Pets Welcome

  • Three private master suites. One breathtaking gathering place. This is the cabin that brings the whole group together without putting everyone on top of each other.
    Nestled in the Nantahala National Forest, just a 15 minute walk from the stunning Glen Falls waterfall and a 6 minute drive to the shops and restaurants of downtown Highlands, Glen Falls Luxury Cabin is the rare mountain retreat that offers genuine privacy and genuine togetherness in equal measure. Pet friendly and designed for families, groups of friends, and multigenerational gatherings.

    The Home
    Here is what makes this cabin different from every other rental in the Highlands area: the three bedrooms are placed in separate parts of the home, each with its own ensuite bathroom, private closet, and a door that closes. Rather than bedrooms stacked side by side down a hallway, the suites are spread across the home's two levels, two on the main floor and one privately tucked upstairs, so each group has their own defined space to retreat to at the end of the day.
    Two additional half baths serve guests sleeping in the loft or living room, so everyone has a bathroom nearby without crossing through anyone else's space.
    But when everyone is ready to come together? The open concept great room, dining area, and kitchen were made for exactly that.
    Gathering Spaces
    Soaring vaulted ceilings in the great room
    Indoor stone wood burning fireplace for cozy evenings in
    Covered back deck with a second wood burning outdoor fireplace, Smart TV, and dining table, so the fun continues outside after dark
    Private fire pit in the yard for s'mores, stargazing, and late nights under the mountain sky
    Private gazebo tucked into the trees, perfect for a quiet morning or an afternoon escape
    Covered front porch with rocking chairs
    Dining table seats 10
    Full kitchen with large central island, Cafe brand appliances including a 6-burner gas stove and electric oven, wine cooler, and full cookware, room enough for multiple cooks
    Bedrooms and Sleeping
    Bedroom 1 (Main level): King bed, full ensuite bath, private closet
    Bedroom 2 (Main level): Two queen beds, full ensuite bath, private closet
    Bedroom 3 (Upper level): Queen bed, full ensuite bath, private closet, plus a bonus hangout space great for kids' games or lounging
    Sofa bed in the living room
    Sofa bed in the upstairs loft area
    Two additional half baths for common area guests
    Sleeps up to 12 guests comfortably
    Comforts and Conveniences
    Starlink satellite WiFi throughout, great for streaming and remote work

    Full size washer and dryer
    Private office and workspace
    Keypad entry for easy arrival, no key pickup needed

    The Area
    You are staying in one of the most beautiful natural settings in the southern Appalachians. The Glen Falls waterfall trail begins just down the road, a 15 minute walk from the front door, and it is one of those hikes that stops people in their tracks.
    Downtown Highlands, with its beloved restaurants, art galleries, boutique shops, live theater at the Highlands Playhouse, and the Bascom Center for the Visual Arts, is just a 6 minute drive away. It is a small mountain town with real character, and guests almost always say they wish they had stayed longer.

    Glen Falls waterfall, 15 minute walk
    Downtown Highlands shops and dining, 6 minute drive
    Bridal Veil Falls, 11 minute drive
    Dry Falls, 12 minute drive

    Asheville Regional Airport, 96 minute drive

Great house and location!

We enjoyed our stay so much! This was our second time to visit Highlands and we had the perfect house for our trip. We were a short distance from the waterfalls that we wanted to visit and downtown was just a few minutes away. I can’t say enough about the house. It was such a great layout with each bedroom and bathroom being so similar that they all felt like Masters. Marlene was a great host! Hope to make the same trip next year!
