Just perfect!
The tiny home was adorable! The owners have thought of everything. There’s a beautiful view of the valley across the road. It’s in a wonderful location to explore Highlands, Dillard, Cashiers, and Clayton. Can’t wait to return!!

Relaxing, cozy getaway
My husband and I had such a relaxing stay for a long weekend at the tiny home cabin. It was beautiful and thoughtfully decorated. Comfortable bed. It was centrally located between Dillard and The Highlands (which we visited several times). It was in a quiet neighborhood, and we would definitely stay again.
