MOUNTAIN VISTAS

& ValleyViews

Leave your cares a million years away and escape to the oldest mountains in the world. This unique getaway will soothe your soul and exhilarate your spirit.

Relax in a charming rustic cabin at the foot of 400 million year old Whiteside Mountain. Rejuvenate along with your family as you hike trails, climb granite boulders, and ride horseback through the mountains.  Enjoy picnics in the woods, family meals in your cabin, plus a fabulous dinner at one of our favorite restaurants.

What You'll Do:

Monday: (D) Arrive at your cottage and explore the nearby trails and creek.  After a chef-prepared dinner, why not wander outside and count the stars in a sky without city lights?

Tuesday: (B, L) Walk behind a waterfall, view spectacular scenery, and, if you'd like, visit a gem mine* this morning.  Picnic together as a family, and then enjoy a guided horseback ride on beautiful trails.

Wednesday:  (B) Choose your own adventure today.  You may wish to try trekking with a llama, rappelling, or mountain biking.* Perhaps you'd just like to explore the charming towns of Highlands and Cashiers. Dinner tonight is on your own.

Thursday: (B, L, D) A local guide will show you one or two of her favorite trails today.   Enjoy a picnic in the woods, and then climb tremendous granite boulders formed millions of years ago. In late spring, you might even take a chilly ride down the locals' version of sliding rock. Tonight, enjoy fabulous food at a kid-friendly restaurant.

Friday: (B) Hike one of our favorite trails along the ridges of Whiteside Mountain.  Look down at a sheer 700 ft. drop, look up for peregrine falcons, and look out for endless views of mountain ranges and valleys below.  Stop in Cashiers and enjoy lunch on your own before returning home.
