There is plenty of room for guests in the three guest bedrooms (two are ensuite) and an adorable yet spacious bunk room. While on the ground terrace level, relax by the gas lit/log fire, play some poker or take in a movie in the game room that opens to a secondary deck. Roast marshmallows out by the firepit or dine al fresco on the expansive deck. You won't believe you're just 4 minutes to the Cashiers Ingles Shopping Center. If you need to get a little work in, you'll love the high-speed fiber optics now available and installed in Pine Forest. There is also a workroom and plenty of storage. No rental restrictions.
