Wilstone Lodge-Pool&Lake Access-Walk to Waterfalls

Welcome to Wilstone Lodge. Tucked away on top of a ridge on quiet, private walkable roads. Amenity access to all of Sapphire Valley Resort. Walk to waterfalls in the national forest from our neighborhood. 20 minutes to downtown Cashiers. Fiber internet, excellent cell coverage. Step-free access to the main floor and bedrooms. New Brunswick 8 ft pool table in lower level. Open concept floor plan with chef's kitchen and 30 foot vaulted ceilings. Amazing mountain views from each of the 4 bedroom suites with attached private bathrooms. Enjoy crisp fall weekends, summers in the cool mountain air, springtime with the blooming laurel and rhododendron, and the pristine stillness of winter at our mountaintop retreat.

Relaxing Getaway

Beautiful and spacious home in NC mountains provided a quiet and picturesque location for my adult family members to meet and reunite. Plenty of comfortable seating around the fireplace in the living room while two large decks and outdoor seating offered wonderful views of the surrounding mountains and valley below.

What a great view! Our family enjoy a peaceful, relaxing stay at this great mountain home. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Plenty of activities down the mountain: restaurants, golf, shopping and more. Also we were able to do a hike from the house. We will definitely be planning to stay here in the future.

Incredible views!

We loved our stay at Wilstone Lodge! The views from the deck were magnificent and enjoyed in the mornings and each evening. The house is hilltop - but definitely worth the daily mountain road commute to town. We love the Sapphire/Cashiers/Highlands area! We enjoyed a most relaxing vacation in a beautiful mountain setting and will return again. Jamie was a wonderful host - with great communication!

Wilstone Lodge is truly a gem—offering a peaceful setting with some of the most spectacular views!The location is perfect for lots of outdoor activities, hiking adventures or simply spending the day at the house relaxing, playing a game, and then taking in the spectacular sunset from the deck. The house was clean, cozy and equipped with everything you could possibly need for your stay.Jamie is an excellent host and really has put so much thought into making your time at Wilstone as comfortable as possible. From the detailed email sent prior to our arrival, to the great welcome guide provided at the house, with helpful tips, hiking and restaurant suggestions and lots of info about the entire area. She has created a home away from home for her guests.We had a fantastic stay and highly recommend the Wilstone Lodge! We will definitely be back.
