Things To Do

Whiteside Mountain

One of our favorite hikes. Easy to get to and spectacular views!

Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Blue Ridge Parkway

Take the loop! Coming from Glenville, head towards SIlva on Hwy 107. Take Hwy 74 East towards Asheville. Entrance to the parkway is just past Balsam on the left-hand side of the road. It isn't well marked, so keep an eye out. If you get to the very high bridge passing over hwy 74, you've gone too far.

Cherokee

Cherokee is a town on the reservation home of the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Nation. At Oconaluftee Indian Village, the 18th-century Cherokee lifestyle is preserved via live demonstrations. In summer at the outdoor Mountainside Theatre, the drama "Unto These Hills" tells the tribal story. The nearby Great Smoky Mountains National Park features campgrounds and Appalachian hiking trails.

Whitewater Falls

Nantahala

Lake Glenville

Sliding Rock

Panthertown Trail

A great hike close to cashiers. Beautiful views, waterfalls, and creeks await!

Silver Run Falls

Great for kids. An easy hike with a lovely swimming hole and waterfall.

Cashiers Sliding Rock

From the intersection of NC 107 and US 64 in Cashiers, follow NC 107 south for a mile or so to Whitesides Cove Road. Look for the golf course hole on the right to be sure you are at the correct spot. Turn right onto Whitesides Cove Road and follow it downhill to the bridge over the Chattooga. Park along the road at the bridge (don't block the driveway) or drive up the hill to a pulloff on the right. Follow one of the numerous paths upstream to the sliding rock and pool.

Biltmore Estate

America's Largest Home, built by George Vanderbilt. Explore the 8000-acre estate in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, NC. Also Richie Rich's house!

Whiteside Brewing Company

Centrally located in the heart of Cashiers. For those of you staying at the Wells Cashiers, this great local spot is in your back yard, just across the park.

Cashiers Farmers Market

The makers of Alex's favorite t-shirts! Golden Retrievers and BBQ.... what else could you ask for!

Rainbow Falls

Long hike through the Pisgah National Forrest.
