Lovely Cozy Mountain Home
We absolutely loved this cozy mountain home. It was just 5 minutes from downtown Highlands but was so secluded. The decor is gorgeous and felt like home with all the necessities you need. We spent lots of time by the wood burning fireplace playing games or sitting on the porch swing taking in the fresh mountain air. The only downside was the TV was a bit old and slow and took forever to respond to the remote. There weren't many channels or any netflix options. But that was ok for us since we spent our time on the porches or playing games/puzzles provided by the rental company. Overall, an incredible stay! We would definitely stay again!
