Elevate your Blue Ridge Mountains experience at this gorgeous 2-bed, 2-bath vacation rental, a newly built cottage where luxury and comfort are found in every detail. Nestled in the Natures Walk section of Glenville’s Chinquapin neighborhood, just minutes from Cashiers, Sapphire, Lake Glenville, and Lake Toxaway, this cottage boasts unbeatable community amenities like a dog park, 13 miles of hiking trails, a driving range, and pickleball courts!
Additionally, dog owners will love Dragonfly’s new fenced-in area located just steps away from the new covered back porch!
You won't have to travel far for other fun, either. Nearby Cashiers and Highlands offer shopping and dining, or you can drive a little farther and visit the fabulous Biltmore Estate in Asheville or the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
And don’t worry if the power goes out. Dragonfly Cottage is equipped with a whole house 26kW generator that will keep the lights on in the event of a power outage.

Loved Dragonfly Cabin
by Winnie C.Dragonfly Cabin was perfect, beautifully decorated and had just about everything one could ask for. We loved sitting out on the porch every afternoon and watched golf on the tv out there on Sunday. Nice neighborhood with good walks and hikes, a driving range and putting green. Rusty the owner was very helpful and generous and the management company very responsive. Overall a great experience!
