Beautiful Property!

This is a beautiful place, right on the river but in a secluded area. One of the best parts about our stay was having private access to some amazing trails and waterfalls. The house is very nice, and the property owner was extremely responsive to all of our questions. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful home!

After Thanksgiving, my family stayed at Lost Cove and had a wonderful experience. The property is truly breathtaking! My husband enjoyed fly fishing in the river right outside the backdoor and caught some impressive trout. The location is one of six properties that share access to private trails, making hiking incredibly convenient. We also made great use of the on-site sauna, which was a fantastic bonus. The beds were cozy, and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. We can’t wait to return!

Wish we stayed for longer

We had a wonderful time. The house and property were great and management could not have been more helpful. There is no shortage of things to do in the area, but you can spend days exploring the trails and waterfalls that are a short hike out the front door of the house. We wish we had a few more days to do more!

Spring break 2025

Lost Cove is a beautiful spacious house nestled in the woods on the Blue Ridge mountains of NC on a private river bank with hiking trails to 6 waterfalls & an old school bus for picture op. We spent 4 cozy nights and had a fabulous time while there enjoying the views from sitting on the screened in porch to the deck with a grills and tables to the chaira around the firepit that we roasted hotdogs and made our favorite s'mores from. We spent good quality time together laughing, playing cards, doing puzzles and listening to albums on their record player singing and dancing. We made unforgettable memories on this trip with my 2 DILs & grandkids (ranging from almost 2 to almost 17), some even did a cold plunge challenge getting in the freezing cold river and running quickly to the nice hot suana 😆 While in Cashiers went to Slabtown Pizza, the kids played cornhole, tag & hide n seek while eating great food, in the same strip was Crossroads Custards for scrumptious custom made desserts. We also went site seeing in Sylva, Cherokee, Cullohee & Tuskasegee, lots of fun things to do and see, like the Judaculla Rock, waterfalls & parks. We also went to Franklin to the Factory great family fun with go carts, bumper cars, trampolines & arcade games! The last day I found out we were only 9 miles to the NC SC GA state lines that lead to Ellicott marker trail so we loaded up and hiked part of that trial too! A great time was had by all!
