Highlands & Cashiers · Service area

Cedar log and SIP packages for the Highlands-Cashiers plateau.

Highlands and Cashiers sit on a high plateau in the southern Blue Ridge, with Lake Glenville, waterfalls and dense forest nearby. It is one of the rainiest parts of the eastern United States, and many properties are second homes.

Plan for heavy rainfall

With so much rain, moisture control drives good design. Your builder should plan roof drainage, grading and crawlspace or basement details carefully. Generous overhangs and covered porches protect walls and add outdoor living space.

Second homes and lake properties

Many plateau homes are used part of the year. Durable materials, low-maintenance detailing and a layout that closes up easily matter. Lake Glenville lots add shoreline questions to review with your builder.

Common questions

Do you build the house?
No. Big Twig supplies the material package and coordinates delivery. An independent local builder you choose handles construction, permits and site work.
Is a cedar log home a good second home?
Many buyers choose cedar for a mountain retreat. Plan for routine exterior maintenance and ask about finishes that suit a wet climate.
