About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

IN TOWN! 2 Blocks From Main Street. 2 Bedrooms/2 Baths. Free WiFi. Sleeps 4.

Park the car and forget about your worries in this recently renovated retreat. With a king bed and full bath on one side of the great room and two twins and a full bath on the other, it's a great space for friends or family.

Only two blocks from Main Street, you can wake up and walk to town for a hot cup of coffee, world class shopping, a day at the spa, ice cream shops, great restaurants, or take a short trip to countless outdoor adventures. Then, return a cozy up with the fireplace and songbirds singing outside your window.

The WiFi will let you stay plugged in, the HD flat screen will let you catch the game, and a front covered porch invite you to enjoy the beautiful climate at 4118 feet above sea level. You can also take a few steps to Harris Lake, where you can feed the ducks and geese (who amazingly ALWAYS seem hungry), or do a little fishing.

If you have a larger family gathering, wedding guests or a big friends' weekend, this house backs up to two other houses of ours with convenient walking paths between: VRBO.com/425273 and VRBO.com/473976

NO smoking, NO pets, NO parties.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Charming home in a perfect location. We parked the car upon arrival and were able to walk to all our favorite spots in town. The owners were responsive and helpful when needed. I’d be happy to stay there again. The only thing I would add would be soft seating on the porch.

We had a great stay! Accommodations are exactly as described. Super close walk to downtown. Comfortable beds. Our toddler enjoyed having plenty of room and yard to move around. Love the fireplace, but definitely recommended using Duraflame logs with the local wood. We will be back next time in Highlands.

Great location. Very Clean. I would say the only thing that I would add to this rental is in the bedroom with the twin beds I would add a folding luggage rack and in the kitchen a Keurig which most people use these days. Other than that I give it a great recommendation.

We were extremely happy with our rental experience. The location is fantastic in relation to Main St and on an extremely quiet road. We basically didn’t have to move the car for the 3 days we were there. The pond with ducks was a great way to relax and entertain young kids. The nature center an easy walk in the other direction, even with a 3 year old. House was impeccably clean with some nice renovations.

Super cute home in a fantastic location to walk everywhere you want to go in Highlands. .3 of a mile from downtown shopping, restaurants, etc. We would stay here again. Close to all hiking, waterfalls and outdoor activities. Particularly enjoyed hiking Glen Falls and Whiteside Mountain. Walked to dinners each night. Excellent restaurants and fun shopping in Downtown Highlands. Very comfortable home that had everything we needed for a great long weekend.

Great house 2 blocks from Main Street! The house is cozy, clean, and super comfortable. The mattress in the primary bedroom is especially comfortable. We loved the porch, the friendly lady across the street, walking around the neighborhood and the easy 5 min walk to downtown. Would definitely recommend this house.

Wildlife and more!

First, let me say how much we’ve enjoyed this house and location the past 2 years. Last year when we arrived there was a deer in the front yard. Not to be outdone, this year we had a bear on the back deck that wandered into the street and deer frolicking behind the house a couple days later. And, we had raccoon tracks in the pollen on the front porch. This was a Highlands first for us. We’ve been visiting Highlands for several years and have finally decided to buy our own home as a result of these wonderful memories. This location is absolutely perfect! You can walk to shopping, dining, the Biological Research facility and so much more. Don’t miss this gem!

Convenient & Roomy

Comfortable, cozy, very clean, convenient location. Was pleasantly surprised at the spaciousness of the house. Plenty of kitchen items plus paper items. Plenty of towels in bathrooms & paper products. Did not need to bring anything but personal items. Garage was a plus because we stayed there for Thanksgiving & it was cold. Vehicle stayed warm because we did not need it being so close to town & my sister/brother in law’s house, who live around the corner. Will definitely stay there again!

Nice little house in town

Great location, about a 5 min walk to town. Appreciated the closet space since we were in for a wedding with many activities. The old heat pump unit is a little loud (more of a low rumble) but not too bad. We really enjoyed the stay.
