Stag’s Pass is a mid-century luxury cabin located in the beautiful mountains of Highlands, NC. High up in the treetops and full of ‘Old Highlands Charm,’ this property has WELCOME HOME in its bones.

As soon as you enter this home, you are in the galley-style kitchen that is complete with everything you need to dish up your favorite meals while on vacation. There’s a seating/conversation nook as well as a laundry area at the end of the kitchen, a good place for a morning cup of coffee or reading a book in the morning early light. Then you head into the family room which has a dining table that can comfortably seat six, a living area with ample seating, a gas log fireplace, and Cable TV. You are instantly drawn to the screened porch, which extends the living area on days you aren’t using the air conditioning.
The split floorplan has the primary ensuite bedroom (tub/shower) to the left and offers a King bed and cable TV. The other two bedrooms are on the other side of the living area. The Queen bedroom has cable TV and the other bedroom has two twins. Both of the guest bedrooms share a small bath (shower).

The screened porch has a tin roof, and when it rains, the most delightful afternoon naps should be taken- that’s almost a requirement. The seating is comfortable thickly-cushioned wicker and looking out into the foliage of the Nantahala Forest, you may find tp be some of the most memorable moments of all. There are steps from the screened porch to the lower level where you’ll find a gas grill, another screened porch for dining, and a fire pit.

This home is not pet-friendly, and there are steps to enter. This part of the Mirror Lake area is accessed by a dirt and gravel road, but most of the other roads in and around town are paved. If you like to walk, this is in a perfect location, but by car, Main Street Highlands is just a couple of miles away and where you will find restaurants and shopping that rival large cities. There’s a covered and heated swimming pool, a recreation center offering pickle ball, tennis, and exercise equipment, Highlands Historical museum, a botanical garden, library, churches and a Highlands Greenway Trail where you can take short or long hikes all within the town area. Highlands is also known as a place to see many mountain vistas, waterfalls, and day hikes you won’t want to miss. Within seven miles, in Scaly Mountain, the Highlands Outdoor Post and Highlands Aerial Park offer zip lining, tubing, a giant forest swing, swinging bridge and the Scaly Screamer, a roller coaster through the trees.
If you want to have fun, but a little less active, check out The Bascom Center for Visual Arts or the Performing Arts Center bringing live entertainment and live-streamed Metropolitan Opera and the Highlands Chamber Music Festival.

After a fun day, return to Stag’s Pass to live in the comfort of day’s gone by, but with all the finer amenities of today. As a matter of a fact, you will probably decide to have some ‘at-home’ days while you’re here, at Stag’s Pass, a day at home is worth the trip.
