Relaxing weekend getaway

House is lovely, comfortable quiet and very clean. Kitchen had everything one would need. We spent our time on the screened porch and in the rockers under sitting under the trees enjoying the cool mountain air. Plenty of room for family and pups! The owner is very accomodating and welcoming. Windy gravel road leading up to house but directions are spot on so no problems accessing house. Recommend highly!

Charming and spacious mountaintop house

High atop the Cashiers area this very secluded retreat was a wonderful spot for my self and my husband along with my 2 brothers and their wives. Bright great room with living area large and bright was terrific. Everything was immaculate and the owner is nearby not to close but charming and explained this property has been in her family since 1800’s or before. We would return!! The gravel road takes about 5 minutes and your 10 minutes beyond to Cashiers!!

Renter Beware!!!

I never complain just want future renters to know the Description of property is not quite accurate. On top of a mountain with the WORST gravel road to get to the property. No Wi Fi for anyone needing it. If you don't need it you are good. Owners personal property including family photos all over the home. Did not have that mountain getaway feel. Felt like l was intruding in someone's Home. Little things here and there need to be repaired. Mildew smell throughout downstairs TV downstairs does not work and was unplugged. Just felt like for the money there were things that needed to be addressed and owner did not disclose them. Could not wait to leave and will never be back. Also Owner lives in garage apartment next to the house which felt like again you were intruding.

It was inconvenient due to the many trips we had to make into town over the 3 days. I thought it was closer to town and not 20-25 mins away. Otherwise it was a excellent property and Sheila was very helpful and accomadating!

Beautiful secluded retreat

The house was lovely and very clean. The owner was accomodating and very friendly. The screened-in porch was my favorite. The drive is a bit of a hike up the mountain on a dirt road, which did not bother us because it added to the quietness of the property, but good for anyone to know ahead of scheduling. We would definitely come back and I highly recommend if you really want some time to unplug.

Beautiful Mountain-Top Home With Excellent View

This Kettle Creek home has an absolutely stunning view of the surronding country-side, especially while the fall colors are on the surrounding trees. It is very well kept up, and comfortable inside, and is quiet at night. I would say that it is the most beautiful place we've stayed at in all of our trips to the Highlands/Cashiers area. The only minor difficulties we had were spotty internet service (not the owner's fault at all - Frontier is probably the only isp available), and steep, non-paved road access for the last 2 miles or so, which made it a bit difficult for our two-wheel-drive van (not a difficulty if you have 4 wheel drive). The beauty and comfort of the home more than made up for the few minor difficulties, and it is an excellent choice for a restful, peaceful vacation spot. Thank you!

Visit in October

Overall - great. Large house at the end of a very steep, curvy hill. The beds were a little misleading from the write-up. We were missing at least one twin. 2 people dropped out or we would have had a bed problem. Sheila is easy to reach and very helpful. We did enjoy our stay.

Idillic mountain oasis

Incredibly beautiful property - total oasis on top of a mountain. Fully stocked cozy home with everything you could ever imagine wanting or needing. We were very comfortable during our 4 week stay and felt right at home immediately. Sheila is extremely responsive and a very kind, warm person. I recommend this house whole heartedly - just be aware of the fact that it is very remote and you have a 15 min drive to town. Oh and the FirePit is beyond amazing. Total mountain dream :)

EXCELLANT

I can't say enough about our stay. The house was immaculate and had lots of space. So easy to get to, even in the dark. Location was perfect with mountain views, privacy,, and a short ride into the town of Cashiers. I can't say enough great things about our hostess, Sheila. She was quick to answer any questions we had and even told my husband some great places to go hiking and seeing waterfalls close by. She was very hospitable. The house was well stocked with pretty much everything you need. This was the BEST place we have ever stayed, using VRBO. Thank you again, Sheila. My family and I had the best time at your place!! You're the BEST!!

Wonderful location, but the listing is too modest

This is a very pleasant home, well stocked with everting we could want. Modernized kitchen, very comfortable furniture, and very responsive hostess. The house is at the end of a well maintained dirt road, so if it snows you should have all wheel drive (Sheila did alert us to that fact when we booked for Christmas). Best treat if all…. We needed to have a Christmas away from home where family could all gather and found a home beautifully decorated for the season.

Peaceful and quaint

We stayed at this property for a week and were very comfortable! The house feels like a well-loved home with everything you can possibly need. Bed was comfortable and there were plenty of linens. The house is at the end of a gravel road on a small hill with a nice yard and a great screened porch. It is super quiet! Very easy to get to downtown Cashiers and Highlands.

Well stocked House

We had a very comfortable stay. The house is well furnished & the beds are very comfortable. The house is also well stocked with all the amenities that you will need. Sheila Owens, the hostess, was very accommodating & quickly responded to any needs that we encountered. Being from the "low country" the only unfavorable for us was the approximately 2 miles of unpaved & very hilly access to the property. With that aside, we had a very nice vacation at this fine property.
