Had a fabulous stay at Branding Iron for our anniversary. The property is located in Chinquapin - a beautiful community near Cashiers. We couldn't have been more pleased with the property and the location. The home was well-stocked and immaculate - we'll be back soon!

Branding Iron is a cute 2 br cottage. Both king bedrooms are like primary bedrooms, except one has a bathroom with heated floors. We loved sitting out on the back porch watching for wildlife. We saw a hawk one morning, deer across the lake, and a bald eagle in the evening.
Great location near the front of Chinquapin.

Quiet and next to Panthertown Valley hiking
Great view of Wolf Pond. Fire pit on rear deck was nice. Kitchen had what we needed. Bedding was good. Great location to access Salt Gap parking for P-town hiking. Dining areas only seat 2 persons which was okay for us.

Perfect for a Family
It appeared on the newer side and was very clean. Furniture was great, beds were great, bathrooms were awesome. Kitchen was well stocked. The house contained everything we needed. The best part about this rental is full access to the amenities available in the neighborhood it is a part of. We played putt putt, hit golf balls on the driving range, hiked to 2 private water falls onsite, and even participated in a 4th of July event that was happening at the "clubhouse". Location was perfect for things we did on Lake Glenville, in Downtown Cashiers, and in downtown Highlands. Great rental and highly recommend.

Positives: Nice - clean - new updated - great feel- great bathrooms - loved the fireplace
Lacking -
could use a hook or two in bath for towels
Bed was way too soft for me but you could tell was quality - just too soft
Could use a coat rack near door
Had to move the window high-top table out so we could all 4 eat together and play cards b/c kitchen table only seats 2
Nothing (unless we missed it) told us about where the garbage was to be dumped - just that it was to be placed in the dumpster up the road - give specifics on this type info

Nice property with a good view overlooking pond. Incorrect description of trash disposal site. This needs to be corrected for future visitors. The floors appeared not to have been vacuumed prior to our arrival. Otherwise, accommodations were very nice.

A great property, in a beautiful area of North Carolina. Worth a stay and the house was well furnished and in great shape.

This was a nice property other than few things. Most of them were just personal preferences such as the Master bath had a freestanding sink instead of a sink within a cabinet with drawers for storage. I found many toys and a couple of kids shoes in drawers in the guess bedroom which I assume were either left by the owner or another renter, which I had to move for use of the drawers. In previous VRBO rentals. we have found all rooms free of clutter. However, the fact that the wood floors were sticky throughout the house was the most disconcerting. It seemed they had not been cleaned sufficiently.

This cabin worked well for two couples. Nicely positioned near hiking trails, Panthertown National Forest, Lake Glenville, and beautiful waterfalls within the neighborhood- check out Charlie Falls! We saw a mother bear and cub cross the road, deer, and enjoyed looking out onto the small pond behind cabin. Cashiers and Highlands are so close and perfect for shopping and dining excursions. This cabin is RIGHT outside the gate to the left. Definitely recommend this cabin for location, and beautiful surroundings! Gas for fire pit needed refilled along with batteries for remote to indoor gas fireplace but did not mind doing since it was great to go to Zoellers to look around! Thank you for the hospitality!

This is such a nice property and setting. The location is quiet and near downtown Cashiers...a short drive down the mountain and you’re there in a little more than 10 minutes. We couldn’t have asked for a better house for our short getaway. Well appointed. Clean. New and nice and had a great mountain feel. Easy check in and check out. The kids had so much fun by the pond and the property managers were available to help with any questions. We can’t wait for our next trip!

Nice cabin on the lake
The cabin was beautiful located on a peaceful lake and was stocked very well. It was wonderfully decorated and was located in a great area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and greatly recommend this cabin.

As soon as we opened the front door, our entire group all said, 'Wow, this looks better than the photos!' Honestly- it's stunning, safe, charming, clean and the PERFECT location. My only recommendation would be to remember to bring toiletries, K-cups and light food as they don't provide.

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful and quiet community at the top of the mountain.
We thought this property was on lake glenville, so were initially surprised to find it wasn’t, and was on a small pond in a private community, however we came to enjoy our quiet little spot and all the amenities our community had to offer. It was a short drive in to town but far enough away to check out and relax.

Nice Place
We enjoyed our stay at the house. Very comfortable. Well equipped kitchen (smoke detector is very sensitive, FYI). Nice propane grill. Awesome fire pit at the lake’s edge. I suggest adding a table to the back deck as it would be nice to enjoy a meal looking out over the lake (and since there is not a proper table inside though there is enough room for 4 to sit around the kitchen island).
The house is convenient to Panthertown Valley trails and very close to Cashiers. A short drive to Highlands and Gorges State Park...so plenty to do in the area...and tons of waterfalls to hike to.
Note that the house is on a small community lake in Chinquapin and NOT on Lake Glenville. The map in VRBO is a bit deceiving as it suggests the location is Lake Glenville. Still a lovely little lake with a few kayaks available and fish jumping.
Also, the instructions were a bit confusing and contradictory on how to handle trash. You will need to drive your trash to another section of Chinquapin and must be given the gate code. Not a big deal but something the management company should let you know upon check-in rather than at check out.

Very Relaxing Getaway
Beautifully decorated, very clean, and extremely quiet surroundings. Top notch appliances, wonderful showers, outdoor gas grill and Keurig coffeemaker. After hours check-in was a breeze and the rental agency was very accommodating. Only disappointment was that we thought we were going to be on Lake Glenville, instead it was only a small pond.
