### Spectacular Mountain retreat- First time this home offered as a rental

Sitting at 4,500 feet of elevation, this amazing home offers a 180-degree birds-eye view of the Cashiers Valley, lakes, and the mountains beyond. Perched high atop Whiteside Mountain's peak, the experience of being in this home is that of a peregrine falcon soaring through the air.  
  
Cozy up to the fireplace in the living room while admiring the long-range mountain-views through its two-story-high wall of windows. A well-equipped chef's kitchen and dining room are just steps from the living room and the four-season room. Venture out onto the uncovered porch for some sunshine and enjoy the uninterrupted vistas. Wake up in the primary bedroom suite located on the upper floor, with a king bed, fireplace, large screen tv, wet bar, and jetted tub. Also on the upper level is queen bedroom with sweeping views and ensuite bath. On the main level there are two bedrooms. One with a queen bed and sliding doors, with a walk out to the adjoining four-season room to enjoy your morning coffee. The other is an additional queen bedroom and bath, which offers a fireplace and clawfoot tub.   
  
There's something for everyone on the lower level with its family room and kitchenette, which is perfect for a movie night followed by a game of pool or table tennis. Another sleeping area provides more space for grandchildren with its rustic bunk beds as well as a full bath. A laundry room off the garage entry offers added convenience. Nearby, the Whiteside Mountain hiking trail is the picture-perfect setting for making lifelong family memories, and it is easily accessible up the end of the private drive. Holidays are a one week minimum.
