Lake Glenville is a pristine reservoir located just eight miles from Cashiers in Jackson County. Located in a beautiful North Carolina mountain rain forest, the lake has 26 miles of shoreline and is the highest elevation of any lake east of the Mississippi (3,494 feet). It offers plenty of things to do for outdoor lovers, including tubing, skiing, wakeboarding, paddleboarding, kneeboarding, kayaking, canoeing, swimming, and fishing. A unique feature for the lake is three distinct waterfalls. Cashiers is a popular vacation destination in Jackson County and the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, located just a few short miles from Lake Glenville and about 63 miles from Asheville, along scenic Highway 64. Sitting in the middle of the Nantahala National Forest, this cool, lush area has plenty of beautiful spots for outdoor activities. Surrounded by mountain peaks of more than 5,000 feet, Cashiers averages 75 inches of precipitation a year, so the area is filled with rivers and waterfalls!

We stayed here for 8 nights for our anniversary! The view was stunning, the cabin was secluded and everything was as advertised! Highly recommend!!

Very cozy and one of the best views of the lake. Getting there is part of the adventure!

We spent much of our time on the fabulous porch enjoying the view. (Our dog became weirdly Zen, gazing out for hours on end at the beautiful lake.) Such a nice setting for reading books, taking long walks, cooking on the Weber grill, watching some Netflix. It was perfectly suited to our needs. Lisa's communications were super friendly and helpful.

This cabin was a find. Views off the deck just spectacular! It was a wonderful escape from Florida summer heat. Would rent again just for the view!

This property worked out great for us. We were attending a family reunion with family staying one street over but we wanted to bring our dog so we could stay the whole time. The view was beautiful and we had a great time.

For those who love a road less traveled, this is for you. The cabin is well stocked and clean. Great host. The view is hard to beat. You are on the end of a high point looking down the lake with fantastic sunsets. The cabin is nestled in the forest with the lake on 3 sides, so you can watch all the activity. Don't worry if you haven't got a boat, the people at the marina are great to work with and have nice rentals. I will be back next year when I am there for work. I suggest taking all your food and drink items with you, as it does take some time to get back to the local store. Pet safe. 5+ STARS!!!

We LOVED staying at Mom's Place. Lisa this owner was so helpful and always at reach. The view was a grand slam! We basically sat on the deck for the most of the time, watching the boats..taking in the colorful trees. We drove around the area for a little while. But since We've been coming to Highlands for decades ..we just wanted to stay put ..be comfy and enjoy the view...and this was the best trip...the accommodations..HIT time for leaf peepers, weather...all wonderful. This cabin had the perfect view of most of the lake..not just a small portion or cut de sac. Next time I want to check in about renting a boat and take a ride around the lake! 10/10 experience!

Wife and I were on NC Blue Ridge Parkway road trip and wanted to stop and relax a few days in the middle of the trip. We thought we would want the big Mountain View’s but really you see this all along the Blue Ridge Parkway at each overlook stop. So we opted for the lake view. mom’s Place did not disappoint. The lake seems to offer so many emotions through the day. Mornings start with misty fog rolling closer then clears as the days begin. Evenings show different shades on distant mountains as the sun sets. The remoteness provides the real ambience that you are actually alone in the forest to enjoy the view. The nearby trees give the feeling you are in a treehouse. Acorns actually fall on the deck. We used the BBQ each night, played board games and just enjoyed being alone. Our Facebook post responses appear to indicate that we are returning with lots of friends. This is a family lake home that has been passed down through generations and it was an honor to be a guest there. Thanks Lisa!

Mom’s Place was as described. Very peaceful!! The views are spectacular morning, afternoon and especially at sunset. Lisa was prompt addressing our issues with the Direct TV and offered fabulous advice on hiking, shopping and restaurants! Lisa went above and beyond to make feel like family!
