Hideaway Cabin

Forget all your day to day worries in this 3 bedroom, 2 bath secluded log cabin located about 3 miles from town. Even though this cabin is secluded, it’s not remote. It’s bordered by unspoiled properties, some of which are protected in perpetuity.

The main level offers the living area with wood burning fireplace, open kitchen area, covered front porch, small screened entry porch, Mst. BR with King bed, one bath, mud room, and back open deck area. The upper level has a full bath in between two bedrooms- one is a large BR with Queen bed and TV (for DVD use), and the other is an open loft bedroom with a queen bed. The loft looks over into the living area which has a queen sleep sofa.

The grounds are kept natural and are full of native wild flowers, ferns, rhododendrons and mountain laurel. There are two hammocks here, a Chimenea, fire pit- great place for story telling and making S’mores, and a corn hole game as well. This cabin is air conditioned and has satellite TV and DVD player. For the grill masters, there’s a Green Egg grill to cook up your masterpiece steak or fresh caught mountain trout.

WiFi is included, but this is still a great spot to disconnect, relax, unwind and enjoy the mountains.

This home has a three- night minimum, except for HOLIDAYS AND SOME LOCAL EVENTS.
The rental app you are using may allow you to make two or three-night rentals during these times, but that doesn't mean the reservation will be honored.

  We were there during a nice snow. This is a beautiful private setting with woods all around. Our favorite feature is the lovely stone wood burning fireplace. The cabin has everything you need for a relaxing stay.

  Joshua T from New Orleans, NC does not recommend this vacation rental.

  I would not recommend staying here. The house has not been thoroughly clean and there were dead bugs everywhere. Very outdated. The beds were very uncomfortable. Even the lightbulbs had not been changed so some of the lights did not even work so had to go by lightbulbs. The home had junk everywhere and was treated as a storage unit more than a home. I love Highlands, but I highly do not recommend staying here unless you want to stay in a dirty house.

  Hugo & Pamela S from Orlando, FL does not recommend this vacation rental.

  Check in was easy. Keys and directions were in a kiosk outside the agents office. Access to the cottage is off a 2 lane asphalt road then on a pretty bad gravel road. A car that sits higher would be best. I am not sure if we damaged the underside of our car as it was scraped each time. The cottage decor could not be more charming. The floorplan is perfect. Note that the living area is open so if someone needs quiet or privacy, they would have to use a bedroom or outdoors. Important is that Wifi was excellent and TMobile was perfect due to a nearby tower. Lighting in the cabin was poor and made worse because of the density of the forest. That could/should be altered. The 3rd bedroom is a loft open to the living area. It is a bad design flaw in my mind. The porch is lovely but the furniture is filthy with rodent droppings on the cushions. The grill was also not cleaned. The garbage can in the laundry room had garbage in it. The deck furniture was also filthy. We noted that the wood floors were filthy as evidenced by our white socks made black. There were some dirty utensils in the kitchen drawers. The laundry room was filthy. The shower curtains had disgusting mold. The kitchen was pretty well furnished but additions of serving/mixing bowls as well as frig storage containers would be useful. There was no instruction book/guide to the area. We frequently rent and have never seen this lacking. Some communications with the office went unanswered. We checked out a day early because of the condition of the cabin. Of course we would like a refund of the night we didn't spend but given the communications gap and seeming indifferent attitude, I am not hopeful. Yes, we did report the dirty status of the cabin to Tucker the day after we arrived but there was no reaction nor even a further inquiry. We advise rental of this cabin only to people who can overlook the conditions.

  a guest from Gulf Breeze, FL recommends this vacation rental

  We had a great time in the beautiful Highlands area. The house is down a gravel path off the road but relatively easy to navigate. Very well stocked except for potato peeler and grill could have been cleaner and some personal items removed to make room for guests. Otherwise it’s a wonderfully rustic retreat yet close to town and hiking. Really cool cabin with plenty of room for 6-8. We found the kitchen updated and clean!

  The Hideaway cabin is in a secluded area but close to town. It was clean and comfortable and we would definitely stay there again. We were looking for a pet friendly rental and this was perfect.
