Cabin holiday rentals in Upstate South Carolina

Staying at Lee’s cabin was an absolute dream. Perched atop a mountain with wide open views in every direction, the setting was peaceful and awe-inspiring. The home itself is a gorgeous 70’s modern build, full of character with striking angles, massive windows, and natural light pouring in from every side. It’s the perfect blend of style, comfort, and immersion in nature. Lots of stone, glass, and wood. Lee was a fantastic host—communication was clear, check-in was seamless, and everything about the experience felt easy and welcoming. I found myself wishing I could extend my stay, but I knew snagging more time at a place like this wouldn’t be easy! Truly one of the most memorable stays I’ve had. No complaints at all—just gratitude. I’d come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

A beautiful space. We enjoyed ourselves immensely and had all our needs within reach with no issues to speak of. Waynesville was a treat and so was our stay. I was really inpressed with how cool the interior of the airbnb was.

DON’T miss your chance to experience the magic of the River Love barn. Kangee’s EXCEPTIONAL hospitality throughout our time in her home set the tone for the entirety of our stay. Her attentiveness & genuine warmth made us feel right at home. The beauty of this property is truly beyond words. While the photos online are stunning, they don’t fully capture the enchanting atmosphere that envelops you as soon as you step onto the grounds. Our favorite spots were the clawfoot tub, perfectly nestled in a private, serene area of the property & the outdoor hammock within the screened in back deck. Kangee truly brought the outside in with her thoughtful design. Even on a rainy day- the sky lights during a storm that had passed through was such a reminder of the cozy atmosphere that permeates the barn. Whether you’re seeking a peaceful getaway or a relaxing family trip, the River Love Barn is a hidden gem that I cannot recommend enough. We left feeling refreshed & inspired, with hearts full.

Lola’s getaway in Lake Lure was a great stay. It’s very private with beautiful scenery. It’s about 25 minutes to the lake but it’s worth being the distance for the privacy. The owners are very responsive and very nice to deal with. Would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful trip! Enjoyed the fire pit and beautiful views from the deck. Our first time to the smoky mountains and we were very pleased with the location and ease of getting to the park. Especially enjoyed the quieter side of the park. Host was very responsive to our questions and things we needed help with. We would definitely stay at their properties again. Cozy bed and everything we needed for the week. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

My boyfriend and I recently stayed at Napaw Mountain, a charming cabin nestled in the mountains. The name, a sweet tribute to Nana and Papaw, set the tone for a cozy and welcoming experience. The cabin offers a great balance of seclusion and convenience—peaceful and relaxing, yet close to hiking trails and diners just a short drive away. The hosts provided thoughtful touches like marshmallows and roasting sticks for the firepit, which is surrounded by soft lighting, creating a lovely evening atmosphere. We enjoyed the on-site hike to the water, and dipping our feet in the cool water afterward was the perfect reward. The hammocks on the deck were perfect for relaxing and unwinding. The cabin is clearly made with love, and the hosts go out of their way to make you feel welcome. It’s a peaceful retreat ideal for those looking to disconnect and enjoy nature. Overall, a great place to relax and recharge.

I was impressed of how spacious the home was on the inside and all of the amenities were perfect too!

I was staying here during the Blue Wall Bird festival at Table Rock. The cabin was close and exceptionally ideal with just the right touches and comfortable bed. Being from the southern part of the state, I appreciated their reminders on bears as I was going to be hiking for two days. Looking forward to return visits!!

This cabin was the perfect getaway. It’s so cute and cozy. The pictures don’t do this place justice. The area on the lake is so peaceful and quiet. We will definitely be back again!

Loved our stay a the A frame and enjoyed the quiet, beautiful woods. The cabin had everything that we needed and the host was very responsive to our needs and requests! She was flexible with scheduling and check-out! Would stay here again and would recommend to others. One note: the uphill drive on the gravel road is no joke. As she described in the listing it is quite steep and bumpy. My 2-wheel drive Hyundai Tuscan made it up safely but did make me a bit nervous when the tires began to spin out for a moment on a steep section. Coming down was much easier!

Cozy and comfortable with all you could need to rest and relax The porch was great for reading The house is in a very quiet neighborhood

Clean, quiet, calm getaway! Loved that we were able to bring our pup! Thank you for everything!

We loved it! Charming, cozy and clean. Loved sitting on the porch, watching hummingbirds feed. The whole family enjoyed exploring the beautiful yard. Perfect place!

We loved Wahoo cabin. It was Private, peaceful, clean, beautiful, and a location very central to all of our planned adventures. The host was very helpful and responsive- this trip left no room for my typical travel anxiety bc she was so proactive and prepared. The private river access was a nice feature I hadn’t realized was available and was amazing. We will spend more time there next time. We were able to kayak devils fork state park , hike table rock state park, hike bald rock, visit pretty place, and visit duke world of energy- all within an easy driving distance. We had a rain day on our trip and enjoyed spending time in the cabin playing games and streaming movies. The host was great! I can’t wait to come back..

We had such an amazing stay! The view alone is worth booking, but everything else just made it even better. The location strikes the perfect balance—peaceful and secluded enough to feel like a true getaway, but still close to town for anything you might need. Makenzi was absolutely wonderful—great communication, super friendly, and made everything feel easy and welcoming. You can tell they really care about the space AND the people staying in it. Honestly, the only downside was having to pack up and leave. We’re so grateful they shared their slice of heaven with us, and we’d recommend this place in a heartbeat. Don’t hesitate—book it!

It was so clean and nice inside the cabin. Not hard to find and easy to get to. Great location for a nice mountain get away. The cabin was also well stocked with necessities. I would definitely come back and I would recommend this place!

This place is a gem. We loved the peaceful atmosphere on the lake and played lots of board games and cooked a ton in their amazing kitchen. Their coffee game is on point with multiple ways to brew. Highly recommend this spot.

Perfect stay! Great communication with the host and she was very responsive. The view is incredible. Very peaceful, relaxing stay. Just what we needed! We will definitely book again!

My family loved Kaci’s cabin and Brevard! We kept busy exploring in Pisgah National Forest and other local attractions, like Brevard Tubing and Oskar Blues Brewery, but we loved being able to come back and hang out at the cabin and enjoy its splendor. My son especially loved ping pong tournaments in the screened porch. We hope to be welcomed back!

The cabin was beautiful, clean, and exactly as described. The location was peaceful and private, and the views were spectacular! Seeing a mother bear with two cubs in the yard was an added bonus! Candace was responsive and her instructions and directions were very helpful. We hope to return to this amazing cabin in the Fall!

We had a great stay at Michael's place! It is remote and private but an easy drive to several cute towns including Highlands. We had everything we needed to stay in for dinner with great views. Would recommend!

This farmhouse cabin is decorated beautifully and has everything you need! We felt right at home. The bed is extremely comfortable. We came to sylva mainly to explore the hiking trails but wish we had even more time in the cabin since it was so cozy and relaxing. We appreciated both the open deck and covered deck. We loved having our coffee in the morning and watching the mist move through the mountains. Mary Anne recommends the Black Balsam Knob hiking trail and it was phenomenal!!

Effortless process and wonderful experience. This place is exactly as as shown in the photos and even more quite and peaceful than expected. The house and the decor are so thoughtful and inviting we didn't want to leave. The screened porch and open deck extend the small but generous living spaces outside perfectly. The loft is a great retreat and with a great selection of games we made use of. We were (4) people and we had plenty of space for cooking, dining and relaxing. We will stay again and highly recommend!

Jessica and Sean are amazing hosts! The cabin itself is stunning with spectacular views. We loved that everything was as described in the pictures. The home is well-maintained, clean and organized. With big windows and a beautiful outside area, it really is the best place to stay when visiting the area.
