About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

SPECIAL~Any 3 nights~April 600+ a reduced pet fee if you have a furry friend!

The Wright Cottage is a perfect getaway for a couple, a family, or group of friends. We've have a gas log fireplace to warm you after a day of shopping or hiking. And, we now have an outdoor fire bowl for you to enjoy! We are the BEST VALUE in Highlands!

This newly renovated three bedroom/three bathroom vacation home--The Wright Cottage--is located in a serene setting near downtown Highlands and a short drive to Cashiers. This home is a perfect setting to relax and recharge in the pristine mountains of western North Carolina. The cottage has the features and amenities that make it a tremendous rental value.

With hardwood floors throughout, the master bedroom suite features a king size bed with the new ensuite full bath with shower. Downstairs you will also find a full bath with tub for your kiddos! Upstairs features twin beds in one bedroom and a double bed in the other. In between, a full bathroom serves upstairs guests. And, we have air conditioning for those unusually hot days in Highlands.

The cottage kitchen is fully furnished and we have a dining room to seat 6 comfortably. Or, you might plan to dine outside at the patio table. If you decide to pick up some steaks from Dusty’s Market and cook out, a grill is available for your use! After dinner, you can relax on the screened porch and enjoy the evening experience while you listen to the nocturnal chorus of whip-o-wills, tree frogs, and the occasional hoot of the great horned owl.

Whether you decide to curl up with a good book or spend the afternoon shopping in town, you will grow to love Highlands. Maybe you want to spend the afternoon wading in the cool water emanating from a nearby waterfall or hike on one of the many trails in the surrounding National Forest. Your Highlands vacation will be complete when you end the day with an evening picnic at the top of Sunset Mountain.

Small inside pets are welcome with a pet deposit.

COVID-19 UPDATE - We are taking extra precautions and cleaning and sanitizing regularly. We have a good supply of hand sanitizer and wipes for you use during your stay.

The Wright Cottage- A Warm Farmhouse Christmas
The is the second year my adult daughters and I have spent Christmas at the Wright Cottage. It is such a warm, sweet setting to spend time together as a family and share the holiday. The home is a traditional farm house with a big fire place. We appreciate all the Christmas decorations. It was so inviting. We read books, played a board game, went on hikes and then went into town. It was a lovely holiday.

Loved our stay!
Our family enjoyed our spring break here this spring. The cabin is exactly as pictured and was a great space with room for the kids to run. It was so nice being close to town but feeling like we were out in the country. We will definitely stay again!

Quaint place to stay
It was a nice place to stay, but is an older home then expected. The price reflected that and it had a nice private country feel.

Quiet yet close to town
We very much enjoyed our stay. The property was close enough to town but in a quiet area where we felt comfortable kicking back and relaxing. It was close to trails and all things we enjoy doing. We also enjoyed the large yard which isn't close to a main road for our dogs! Thanks for letting us stay in your home! We will return:)

So Cool in the Mountains. Getting away from the heat.
We loved the home and setting. We used fire pit both nights. We might bring the dog next time. We loved dining in Highlands. The area is great for hiking and waterfalls. WIFI worked great, even out in the yard.

Charming Cottage!
Sweet and charming cabin with a lot of history. Loved the screened porch and the gas fireplace with remote. Visited in early October (spider season) and needed some bug spray. Very close to Main Street but far enough away to be totally quiet.

Highlands in the Fall
We had a great time at the Cottage. We had guests for 2 nights, but then just my wife and I and our dog. The location is really nice. Private but no secluded. 5 minutes to the Highlands. Very old house. Very interesting. Great stay

Everything we wanted!
A lovely home in the woods. The fire pit, the grill, the plethora of DVDs, and comfy couches, what more could you want? We had a wonderful stay in a house with such a rich history, I would recommend to anyone looking to get away for a weekend. If it weren’t for work on Monday, we would’ve definitely stayed longer. Thank you!
