Vacation home and property care in Western North Carolina
If your place in the mountains sits empty for part of the year, someone should be looking after the grounds. We keep second homes and seasonal residences maintained between stays — and have them ready when you arrive.
Properties that aren't lived in year-round
Vacation homes
Used a few weeks or months a year, and needing the grounds kept up in between.
Second homes
A place you come back to. It should look the same as when you left it.
Seasonal residences
Occupied for one season and closed up for the rest. The grounds still grow.
Owners out of state
Too far away to check on the place yourself. We're already in the area every week.
What property care covers
Scoped to your property and how often you want us out — weekly, monthly or seasonally.
-
Routine property checks
Regular visits to walk the grounds and see how the property is holding up between stays.
-
Lawn and landscape monitoring
Mowing, edging, beds and plantings kept up so nothing gets away from you over a season.
-
Seasonal maintenance
Spring and fall work timed around when you're using the place, not when it suits us.
-
Property cleanups
Leaves, limbs and debris cleared and hauled away — including after a rough stretch of weather.
-
Gutter and exterior upkeep
Gutter cleaning and pressure washing so the outside of the house doesn't slide while you're away.
-
Painting and off-season work
Interior and exterior painting and other property work scheduled for the months you're not there.

Mountain communities we look after
Most of our caretaker work sits around Highlands, Cashiers, Sapphire and Glenville — but we cover all of Western North Carolina.
Just outside these areas? Ask us — we often travel a little further for larger projects.
Pick the rhythm that fits the property
Weekly
Through the growing season, when grass and beds move fastest.
Monthly
A steady check on the grounds without a full maintenance schedule.
Seasonal
Spring and fall visits, timed around when you use the place.
Not sure which? Tell us about the property and we'll suggest one when we walk the grounds.
If a storm hits while the property is empty, call us first
Downed trees, blocked driveways, washed-out drainage, debris across the yard. Call rather than email — we'll get out to the property as fast as the roads allow.
