The view of Toxaway Falls from the private balcony was awesome. In addition to the view, the sound of the water rushing over the falls was so peaceful and relaxing. My wife and I ate breakfast, lunch and dinner sitting on the balcony.
For us, this vacation was a combination of relaxing and exploring some of the trails / falls. There are several beautiful hikes and waterfalls within a twenty minute or less drive. This meant that we didn’t have to spend hours driving to find a hike or waterfall. We would spend several hours out and about, then boom, within twenty minutes or so, we were back at the condo relaxing.
The condo itself was very clean and well kept. There were plenty of toiletries and towels. The kitchen was also well stocked with pots, pans, utensils and drinking glasses / cups. Other than hearing the people in the unit above us walking around periodically, this was a very quiet unit.
Nearby by amenities: There is a little country store (convenient store) about two miles down the road towards the west (go left out of the condo parking lot). You can also gas up your vehicle here. When you turn in to where the condos are located, there is a Mexican restaurant right there. We ate there one night and it was very good. I recommend the carnitas. Right next to the Mexican restaurant, there is a little plant store with other little hand crafted items. My wife purchased two plants (she has a plant addiction). There are other little cafes and markets close by, but since we didn’t go to those, I can’t offer a review.
PET OWNERS: Luckily, our little fur baby will do his business just about anywhere outside, but most of the outside area is pretty steep. This may pose a difficult position for your pet to do its business. There is a little flat, grassy spot (with little rocks) up by where you park. This seemed to work out well for a potty spot. And the dumpster to dispose of your pet’s waste is in that general area.
