Cashiers is a town rich in the folklore of the Scottish clans that first settled here centuries ago.
Weaving, woodcarving, pottery and quilting are among the crafts that are available by local artisans in the village shops. There are many wonderful restaurants to choose from in the area, offering a variety of continental cuisine and local favorites. Traditional mountain music performed by local musicians may also be enjoyed. Clearly, there is much to do in Cashiers. Easily, one could enjoy doing nothing at all.
