Discount Rates For Skiing, Tubing and Snowboarding at Sapphire Valley Ski Area, Cashiers, NC

Great news for Laurewood Inn guests that want to enjoy skiing, tubing or snowboarding at Sapphire Valley Ski Area.  We can offer 25% off their list rates if you are staying with us.  The weather forecast this week is for cold temperatures starting tonight, so Sapphire will be blowing lots of snow!

All of us at Laurelwood Inn want to wish you and your families a very Merry Christmas!  Our stockings are hung and now we are just waiting for Christmas Day to arrive!

Our girls are home from college and we have been busy baking and entertaining friends. Always so fun to actually take the time to have friends for dinner.  Why do we wait until Christmas to do this?

I will keep this short as I know you all are busy getting ready for Christmas also!  We would love to see you soon! We still have rooms left for the holiday week ahead so call or book online now. 

Merry Christmas!  May the joy of this season fill your hearts as we celebrate the birth of our Savior!

Fun things to do for Christmas in the Cashiers-Highlands area.

Hard to believe it is December!  The Christmas season is upon us and there are many activities going on in and around our area.  If you don't have your Christmas tree yet, now is the perfect time to visit one of the many choose and cut farms in our area! This is a great family friendly event and will create memories for years to come!
Tom Sawyers Farm has some great tips on caring for your fresh tree along with another page for top 10 myths about trees.

You also don't want to miss the parades going on in our towns.  The Highlands parade is December 7th at 11am.  The Cashiers parade is the following Saturday, December 14th also at 11am.  The Cashiers parade starts at the Cornucopia restaurant and makes it way to the center of town, then turns left onto Hwy 64 and ends at the Community Center.  If you stay at Laurelwood Inn all you have to do is walk across the street for great viewing of the parade!

At the end of the Cashiers parade route there will be an event called "Cashiers Cares". This event benefits many of our local organizations. A free lunch and photos with Santa are a part of this event!
