Gather at Sassafras Gap Retreat, a cozy mountain cottage in Highlands, North Carolina, where the beauty of nature surrounds you in a real home away from home. This authentic sanctuary is designed to breathe life into the senses and foster connections, offering an experience of warmth, serenity, and unparalleled tranquility.
Sleeping arrangements are thoughtfully designed to accommodate up to 6 guests. The main floor features two bedrooms with queen beds, each sharing a charming bathroom that boasts a nostalgic clawfoot tub and a convenient shower wand. For added versatility, an upstairs loft provides two twin beds (or a queen option), serving as a playful haven for children with its own seating area and table for crafts and games. For those seeking accessibility, a second bathroom is available featuring a walk-in shower equipped with grab bars and a supportive seat.
Inside the red cottage, the heart of the home is a homey, fully outfitted kitchen that invites you to prepare shared meals and gather around the dining table for heartfelt conversations. The living room offers a cozy atmosphere with comfortable seating and a gas fireplace, perfect for curling up with a book on chilly winter nights. As a special touch, guests will find complimentary gifts from Sassafras Gap Apothecary waiting inside upon arrival.
Outdoor living is a versatile extension of the home. Spend your evenings roasting s'mores by the fire pit under a starlit sky, enjoy the charcoal grill, or head to the front yard for a game of cornhole using the provided boards. The mesmerizing landscape allows you to enjoy the rustle of leaves and the sight of resident wildlife.
Located just minutes from the enchanting waterfalls and invigorating hikes of the surrounding mountains, the retreat is also perfectly positioned for easy access to the delightful shopping and dining experiences of downtown Highlands.
