About this house rental
The Nest is a newly built, chic modern-rustic home crafted into the side of a mountain. Perched up high with 180 degree views for miles, the home is minutes from Lake Glenville and the Crossroads, close to recreation, convenient for shopping and dining, and is yet a million miles away. Avid travelers, we designed this home with all the amenities we look for but never find in our own travels. Professional grade appliances and cookware for the gourmet, table service for 10, 2 wrap-around covered porches with cozy furnishings and dining areas, outdoor grill with direct gas line, high quality mattresses, white cotton linens, and down alternative comforters. There is space for everyone in the family to congregate together or to cozy up in their own niche. The bunk room is a kids' paradise! Each of the 4 built-in bunks has a cozy down comforter, a nook with a light, and an outlet for their phones or other electronics. There is ample seating and a wall mounted large screen TV with BluRay DVD player and X Box gaming. The floor above has it's own wall mounted large screen TV, fire place with luxurious lounging furniture, and ping pong table, all opening up to a covered wrap-around porch and the same spectacular view. There are books and games for all ages throughout the house.
The Nest sleeps 10 in 3 bedrooms with en suite baths and a bunk room with 2 sets of built-in bunks and a full bath. The farmhouse trestle table seats 10-12 with ease. Each level is walled with a light-filled view of the mountains, beautiful in every season. Other amenities include: heated master bath floor, high speed internet, You Tube TV, Amazon Prime, Netflix, DVD player and X Box, laundry room with commercial grade, full sized washer/dryer.
The kitchen is equipped for the gourmet with a Dacor range, Kitchen Aid mixer, Nespresso machine, Keurig coffee maker, and high quality cookware and bakeware for the discerning chef. Enjoy your meal with your family and guests at the large farm table overlooking the stunning mountain view with the sliding French doors wide open.
This home is minutes from the Lake Glenville public beach and the Crossroads with shopping and restaurants, but the highlight of this area is the great outdoors. The countless trails in the area provide sweeping mountain views, stunning waterfalls, and flora and fauna for hikers of every skill level. Visitors to the area can also enjoy mountain biking, zip lining, white water rafting, boating, swimming, skiing, tubing, and fishing. We have guides, maps, suggestions, and reviews at the ready for you. Winter, spring, summer, or fall, western NC has it all! Enjoy the unspoiled beauty of this part of the country from the comfort of the Nest.
P.S.
In this new world with COVID, many are looking for places to get away while still working. We have very good, fast internet...when we have it, which is most of the time. It is reliable for light work, streaming movies, multiple users but we do not recommend trying to make the million dollar deal from up here. We do not recommend your 3 children do remote schooling from here. Weather can interfere with internet as can too many people on too many devices at once. We want you to relax, not to be frustrated, so we encourage you to come here to enjoy the beauty and serenity and leave (most of ) your stressful job at home.
There is a security camera located above the front porch that covers the front entrance porch, walkway, and the parking area.

Everything is nice about the house itself. The problem is that its located on a steep hill and the lake and the property are not easy to reach walking. To get back would be even more demanding.
Cashiers is not an interesting town. Highlands, after about three quarters of an hour drive is the center and very nice.

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this property! Our family stayed over the Thanksgiving holiday and it was lovely! The views from this home are absolutely amazing! There was so much space for all of us. A huge kitchen table for meals for our family, comfortable seating in 2 great living areas, and spacious bedrooms and baths. The kitchen had everything we needed and was terrific to prepare meals in. We all enjoyed the ping pong table too! Communication with Annie was easy with quick responses. An easy drive to great nearby hikes or shopping in Highlands too. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay at this home again!

This house is even prettier than the pictures show, and the views are absolutely amazing! It is a bit removed from both Cashiers and Highlands, but not so far that it’ll keep you from driving in and exploring the towns and the rest of the surrounding area. But you really may not want to leave. Just sitting on the big bed swing on the porch and taking in the view is worth the trip. and if you’d like to cook, the kitchen is great. Also, it boasts plenty of space for a family members to be together, but also have alone time. The house were super welcoming and helpful too! I would definitely rent this house again.

The Nest was all it was represented to be. Our stay was pleasant and relaxing, which was our goal. I would recommend it to anyone without hesitation. Morning tea on the back porch is spectacular.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home. It's a beautiful house with an open and well-laid out floor plan. The home was spotless and very inviting. The host (Annie) was extremely helpful and responsive, which was very appreciated. The views are spectacular and relaxing and sitting on the back porch and soaking it all in was how I started and ended most days. All-in-all a terrific place to recharge, and we certainly hope to make a return visit.

What a gorgeous mountain home designed with families in mind! It's just north of Cashiers in a secluded mountain neighborhood. Cashiers is a good 15 minutes away just because roads are so windy. We arrived in the driving rain so we didn't get to enjoy the gorgeous porches or views as much as we would have liked. The house was very solid and the fireplace quite cozy as the wind and rain whipped outside. The layout is wonderful, and decor is beautiful. Beds were very comfortable and the kitchen fully stocked. We had ages 11- 74 and it was a great house for everyone. There are four stories, so make sure you are comfortable doing stairs. Download or print all your information prior to getting to Cashiers as cell service is very spotty in this area. With the wifi at the house we were able to get texts but we couldn't get calls to send or receive. We will definitely be back. I hesitate to recommend only because I don't want everyone else to know how fabulous this house is! :-) The owner is very responsive and gracious.

Paradise in Glenville
My husband and 3 teens have been visiting Cashiers/Glenville for years from Florida to escape the summer heat. We love boating on Lake Glenville, the amazing hiking/waterfalls and just enjoying an escape from our hectic lives. This was our first stay at The Nest and when I walked in, the view literally took my breath away. I can't even capture its beauty in photos, you need to experience it yourself. Every sunrise and sunset lit up the home and my entire family enjoyed every minute of our stay in this gorgeous home. The home has high end finishings, beautiful decor, and 4 floors so everyone can have their private space yet gather together on the main floor and porch for meals and drinks. We want to come back with couple friends to share the beauty of the home and the area. Thank you Annie for opening your home to others to experience. It's a rare find--we've stayed on the lake before but nothing has compared to your beautiful home nestled in the mountains.

Stunning!
This home and location are amazing. Views were spectacular as well. We had folks from 4 to 64 years old and all were comfortable and loved this stunning home. Also, the owners and manager were very responsive to any questions. I would recommend this home to anyone and would definitely stay here again.

Restoration
Time at The Nest was an overdue retreat for our busy family. Our hosts were a delight! A well apportioned mountain home with space for all and a blue ridge view that calms the mind, body and soul. We spent a significant amount of time recharging on the porch watching the humming birds, listening to the birdsong symphony and star gazing. We look forward to our next visit.

Fabulous Home in the woods
Your home was just perfect for our adult vaca. We loved the layout, and how new and clean everything was! Then we stepped outside and the view was absolutely breathtaking! My favorite part of the house was the porch bed swing and I think we took about 100 pictures off the balcony alone! :) The neighborhood is tucked away up a scenic curvy road and was just perfect! I would recommend this home to anyone traveling to the area! We WILL be back!

Beautiful Mountain Escape
This property was amazing! Beautiful views along with a great location close to cashiers and highlands. The house was VERY clean and more importantly very kid friendly. The kitchen was amazing as well as all the touches and finishes of the house were high end but still made you feel like home. We hope to find an opportunity to come back and soak up the views again!

Better view than any hike
Views were outstanding- in all weather ! A zen experience sitting on the deck watching the clouds go by. Best rental house we have had. The house is beautiful and done with excellent finishes and materials. Lots of space
And everything you need. Only suggestion is to Read the directions to get there - we lost mobile coverage for the last 15 mins and I neglected to get the gate info.

Best Vacation Spot in Smoky Mtns
The home is beautifully situated with amazing panoramic views of the Smoky Mountains from porch. It’s so quiet you can hear the hummingbirds zipping in and out from the feeders hanging from back porch. If you’re looking for a great place to relax and unwind, this is the place to visit. The home furnishing and decorating is so well done. Great kitchen. We enjoyed the many hikes to the various waterfalls, and trips to Highland only 30 minutes away. The owners were very communicative. Great Trip!!!

Visit mid-August 2020
The views from the back deck over multiple mountain ranges are just amazing. We did not see better views anywhere. The house is very well equipped and it was easy to settle in quickly and feel at home. The house gets lots of light during the day and it is cosy in the evening. The back deck is really great! The Nespresso machine was also highly appreciated!

Wonderful Weekend at the Nest
The property owner was in touch with all pertinent information. We could not have asked for anything better than her help and the restfulness of the property. In addition to beauty of the dwelling, the surroundings were everything we had hoped for. We plan to return someday.

Breath of Fresh Air
The Nest is a special place! The views from the house are spectacular and then you have the option to climb another 100’ or so to get to the most spectacular mountain sunset east of the Mississippi. The house is very clean and modern, and set the record for the amount of cooking supplies, seasonings and cook wear. Just can’t beat the weather this time of year as well.
Would definitely return. Annie was extremely responsive as well.

Relaxing Break
Our family enjoyed a great break in the mountains near Cashiers and Lake Glenville. Cool nights with shooting stars, great hikes viewing waterfalls and good times on the lake. House was a treat. Spent most of our time on the back porch with the humming birds!

Modern Home in the Mountains
Overall, we had an amazing stay at this property! We had a group of 8 (6 adults and 2 children) and everyone fit comfortably inside. The kids loved the bunk room on the garden level! However, no one spent much time inside because the views from the back porch were breathtaking. The large swing was a perfect spot for an afternoon nap. The kitchen was wonderfully appointed. We enjoyed cooking every dinner together as a family. The house was close to Cashiers for shopping, restaurants, farmers market and grocery store but also close to trails for hiking, white water rafting and boating! The owners were so kind and easily accessible. You can tell they take such pride in their home and that they too enjoy it with their family. We can’t wait to go back again. Our kids have already asked us to plan a trip back for Thanksgiving!

So blessed on Thanksgiving
As we drove up the long and curvy road to The Nest, I wondered if we were going to be too remote. But, now in retrospect, it couldn’t have been more perfect! As grandparents, we were most interested in making Thanksgiving momentous. And, it was just that. We enjoyed each other like no other trip before. The scenery was beautiful and we got to share a different nature experience with our kids and grandkids. The home was very clean and roomy enough for 8 adults and four children comfortably. The kitchen was well appointed and we were able to cook a feast Ajax sit down at the table that was ample in size enough to accommodate our family. The children’s favorite experience was watching the white squirrels in the trees, they really are well known in the area. My favorite was sitting by the fire with my grandchildren drinking hot chocolate. And We appreciated the board games, it proved to be great quality time when it rained on one day. I would recommend this home to anyone wanting to make incredible memories.

Amazing Weekend!
We celebrated my Mother’s 75th birthday at this wonderful house! Everything from start to finish was great...reserving the house, communication with the owner and the weekend itself!
The house is extremely well appointed and the layout works so well. The views are truly spectacular...breathtaking really!
It’s a short 13 minute drive into Cashiers where we had lunch at Ugly Dog (highly recommend) and then did a little shopping.
I would wholeheartedly recommend staying at this cabin and hope we have the opportunity to do so again in the near future!

Family getaway
Wonderful home, wonderful time for our family. Amazing mountain and sunrise views! Very peaceful and quiet, just what we needed. Location was ideal for us. Close enough to trials, shops and restaurants. The inside and outside of house very clean and well maintained. It is evident the owners take pride in their home as did previous guests. Different levels allow for privacy when alone time is desired. Played ping pong and the games provided. Our four day stay went by way too fast, thank you for sharing your home. Would definitely rent again.

True Five Star
You know how rating systems have been compromised by too-easily-given five star reviews and too personalized and whiney one or two star reviews? Well, this is a true five star experience. The place is lovely and truly top of the line for vacation homes in the area. The view is astounding. The house is new, decorated to current tastes, and clean, clean. The kitchen is very well stocked. The porch is enough to sooth you for days. And, the owner is an excellent communicator and very, very helpful.
Oh...and the cool air that we went for was balm as were the millions of stars, viewed at height through clear and dark skies. This property is worth your very serious consideration is you are looking for a restful restorative break!

Wonderful Girls Weekend Retirement Celebration
This is a wonderful home with plenty of room to spread out. Awesome kitchen, very comfortable beds, nice linens and large bathrooms. For us the porch was the best place to spend time together. The swing bed was great and so very relaxing! Home owner shared great instructions to get there. Fun shopping and restaurants within a relatively short drive and the Ingles Is well supplied. Thanks Annie for a special place to share a special time@

Beautiful modern cabin, impeccably clean, well appointed with wonderful mountain views views
We took the family for a mountain getaway to celebrate Christmas. There were 7 adults in our party, and to a person, everyone was thrilled with the choice of this cabin. The home has been updated and decorated beautifully with modern touches that do not detract from a mountain cabin experience. And as the photos attest, the mountain views do not disappoint. The open feel of the main level was perfect for our group and the cabin is outfitted with all of the appliances, kitchen ware, sheets, towels that you will ever need. Everything about the place is impeccable clean and very comfortable.
As a bonus, the hosts, Anne & Kevin are two of the most accommodating and communicative hosts we have every had the pleasure of dealing with thru our many VRBO experiences. They took special concern that our trip would be as enjoyable as it was. And it certainly was quite a memorable and enjoyable experience.
Too bad there is not a 6th star rating, this place deserves it! We would return in a heartbeat, maybe summer next time!

Most beautiful comfortable well stocked mountain home we have ever stayed!
My 4 adult children, husband, daughter in law, future daughter in law at 18 month grandson made wonderful memories during our stay in this extraordinary home.. The beds were so comfortable, the bathrooms updated and clean. I loved cooking and baking in the most fabulous well stocked kitchen with plenty of extras and amazing cookware! The views were beautiful! The provided hiking book gave us some great ideas on our 3 days of hiking.
Thanks for the Best mountain trip our family has ever had!!
