We absolutely love this property indoors and out. This was our second visit and we’ll definitely come back again. The home is beautiful and well-appointed with everything you might need. We enjoyed the firepit and fireplace, the deck and covered porch. It’s the perfect escape wrapped in nature. It’s close to great restaurants and activities, but offers a serene sanctuary where one can just relax and read, play games, watch movies… The host is very friendly and responsive. We had the best time and were disappointed when it was time to leave. We truly look forward to returning as soon as we can.

The NestleInn is an amazing retreat! Private, cozy, clean, and a good base for adventures around Franklin, Highlands and Cashiers. Our family has fallen in love with the mountain moss, the fire pit, the porches, the various inside amenities and thoughtful touches. It’s become our happy place. The host is wonderful.

Great host. . Great location . Super clean and updated Cannot say enough good things about nestle inn and Mrs Linda. This place was great for my kids ( 1 and 3 years old). Gas fire pit was so easy and convenient for the time span of our kids and perfect for smores. Also thanks to Mrs Linda and the advice of the local waterfall within ten minutes of the cabin. Great little hike for me and my three year old.

Restful Retreat

This home is perfectly situated near many quaint towns for shopping and dining, as well as hiking, falls, and adventurous zip lines and family ropes courses. The owners had thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and even left gourmet cinnamon rolls for us to bake our first morning there. We can’t wait to come back!

Everything was absolutely wonderful! The design, the cleanliness, the amenities, the furnishings, the location, it was all more than we expected. We wished we had booked a longer stay. On the final morning we were blessed by a visit by a beautiful yellow cat to finalize our stay at NestleInn. We could not have hoped for a better setting to enjoy a visit with our great friends!
