Waggly Butts & Bears - Highlands

We just finished a 10-mo renovation! You'll love our very secluded cabin with a great view and rustic touches. Beautiful drives on curvy mountain roads lead to the quaint mountain towns of Highlands and Cashiers. Enjoy a completely private, quiet and recently-renovated cabin overlooking Black Mountain. You'll wake up to this amazing view in the upstairs primary bedroom with a king bed, and enjoy your coffee on the small balcony. The first-floor bedroom has a queen bed, with French doors that open to a covered porch and wonderful view. If needed, a blow-up mattress is available--simply roll the kitchen island out of the way to make space! To ensure we keep everything clean and sanitized for all guests, overnight sleeping on the couch is not permitted. You'll have your choice of several outdoor spaces, including the amazing aforementioned covered, screened-in porch. In cooler months, this year-round room can be kept warm by rolling down the acrylic windows and turning on the outdoor heaters. A large deck with Adirondack chairs to enjoy the mountain view is perfect on sunny days and it boasts an outdoor eating area, which is perfect for enjoying the summer nights. A tin-roof deck with a hanging day bed for a relaxing afternoon is a must while you're at the cabin. You'll feel whisked away to two different worlds, depending on the direction that you look while swaying in the bed. You can bring yourself to the deep forest or imagine hiking the mountains. The tin-roof deck also comes with full-size propane and charcoal grills. Adirondack chairs surround the fire pit, in the natural setting of the woods. You will be minutes away from a natural sliding rock, hiking trails, shopping, golf courses, lakes and many wonderful restaurants. Dogs are welcome anytime (max 2, NTE 50 lbs each or contact us to discuss), and if interested/needed, we store two collapsible kennels for your use. The cabin comes equipped with a fully stocked kitchen, sheets, bedding, towels, and a hair dryer. We have Starlink internet, a smart DVD player and a Google Chromecast for Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu. Finally, there's a laundry room upstairs for your use.

The first and last third of the driveway to get to the property is a little steep. Although a truck or SUV would make it up there easier than other vehicles, we've had all type of cars and trucks that make it up just fine, including small 4-door sedans. If you drive SLOWLY, it won't be a problem at all. We've also had experienced motorcyclists up there. The driveway is naturally and purposely bumpy. We keep it maintained but due to the heavy rainfall, in between maintenance, it can get quite bumpy. Also, there are culverts placed in various spots to divert the water down the hill.

Security cameras are on site, outside only. $250 fee for tampering with cameras or equipment.
