Beautiful Spot
This cabin was perfect for us! We loved that it was from the '40s but completely renovated with modern and stylish kitchen and bathrooms. The old fireplace and chimney gave it charm! The deck is fabulous, perfect for breakfast, happy hour, and any other time. Highly recommend.

Highlands hideaway yet it’s as close to downtown as you can get
Upon arrival you’re greeted by a very welcoming neighborhood and large parking area for the house. Everything inside the house is very intentional and we were happily greeted by a nice welcome note and bottle of wine! They supply anything you would ever need for your stay. It’s odd to say but they supply the “right” amount of things without stuffing the house with too much stuff. We were looking forward to the amazing outdoor space and fire pit but unfortunately we were there during the Countywide burn ban so we settled for the interior fireplace which was just as cozy and inviting. Thanks for a great stay!

Beautiful setting!
My husband and I stayed 4 nights at the Highlands cottage and we can’t recommend it enough. The kitchen was well appointed with all the cookware one would need, the outdoors was stocked with wood for the fire pit and the deck had a smart TV to watch all the college football we could want. There was even a nicely printed book with home instructions, sightseeing info and photos of the surrounding area. A lot of thought was put into making guests feel at home and it was greatly appreciated. If we’re ever in the area again, we would definitely stay at the Highland’s cottage and highly recommend it to others too.

Wonderful Stay in Highlands
We had an excellent stay in Jighlands. The house was exceptionally clean and well furnished. The kitchen was very well stocked with 2 types of coffee makers and coffee. Each of the two bedrooms was comfortable and well furnished. Each had its own bathroom. Every light switch was labeled. The house is very comfortably furnished, and the covered deck is very comfortable. In short, this was an exceptionally good stay.

Highland Retreat
The place we stayed was perfect. Everything was as advertised, and we had all we needed. The most difficult item was figuring out how to open the bear proof garbage can, but we eventually figured that out. Our host was most responsive on a couple of questions. This was a very comfortable and convenient place to stay.

Fabulous long weekend in the mountains
We loved our stay in this Highlands cottage. All the amenities we needed. Loved the back porch. It was perfect for relaxing, morning coffee and watching the afternoon rain. Convenient to great lunch and dinner spots. The fire pit was perfect for dessert s’mores. Would love to come back!

Great cottage in Highlands
This was a pleasant, cozy cottage near downtown Highlands. The kitchen is particularly well-equipped -- a bonus if you have a chef in the family! Perfect for 1 or 2 couples looking for a Highlands getaway!

Family getaway
Cozy cabin in the mountains perfect for a getaway. Every amenity was available that we needed and the fireplace was the perfect centerpiece. All of the tvs were equipped for streaming in addition to puzzles and games for entertainment. Very convenient location close to downtown.

Charming and serene
We loved our stay at this quaint but well appointed cottage. It was very cozy and quiet , beds were comfortable, tvs in each room a big plus. Kitchen was well equipped and had plenty of cookware for us to make a proper thanksgiving dinner for two. A very short drive into town so we could enjoy all the excellent restaurants and shopping. Would definately stay here again.

Beautiful mountain home
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this adorable cottage surrounded by the trees. The back deck is the best spot in the house. Great yard for kids to play. Perfect size house for our family of three.

Charming cabin in the woods close to town
Enjoyed our week. Owners had clearly thought about making us welcome with cut flowers, firewood and arrival and departure info. We had one bump in the road upon arrival as housekeeping had left wet towels in washer and previous renter’s food in cabinets. We were able to remedy those issues and have a great stay. Cabin would be tight for more than 4 people.

Highlands vacation
Excellent property. Better than expected location and setting. Housekeeping less than excellent...dishwasher not empty, towels folded and put away wet, out of toilet paper, ceiling fan did not work in one bedroom, no kitchen towels .... all minor things. Overall great place.. Would definitely stay again.

Charming cottage/cabin close to downtown
This charming little cottage was perfect for our recent visit to Highlands. The two primary bedrooms with en-suites were great for us and would work well for 2 couples, 2 friends or parents and kids. The house was clean and well-stocked with everything we needed. The back porch/deck was perfection and we loved the water feature. The house is incredibly conveniently located to downtown Highlands and would have been a lovely one mile walk. We contemplated but decided we would probably not want to walk back with shopping bags. (It was a good call as we bought a lot in the nice downtown shops.) Would definitely stay here again!
