Mountain Views: Luxe Highlands Mansion on 6 Acres

Located in Highlands, this welcoming cottage brings it all within your reach. Thanks to the convenient onsite parking, you can either leave your vehicle behind and enjoy a short 5-minute walk to Nantahala National Forest, or easily tackle the quick 9-minute drive to Chattooga River.

After you return, you can unwind on the patio or sip a drink by the firepit. For a change of scenery, come inside and try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi, TV, and video-game console.

This 6-bedroom, 7-bathroom rental features a BBQ grill, a fireplace, air conditioning, and a ceiling fan. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as a microwave, cookware, and a blender. And because there's a washer and dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
