Comfortable, chic and such a gem!

Traveled here over March break 2021 and just had the most wonderful stay. The house itself is lovely and well laid out. Everything was thought of down to coffee & granola bars and info on nearby spots. The neighborhood is quiet but so convenient for getting into town. We met the loveliest neighbors too who showed me a running route into a nearby golf course that was just so nice! Would stay here again (and very much hope to) in a heartbeat!!

High Time in the Higlands

House was great, clean and very well equipped. The gas fireplaces made for a cozy atmosphere. Very easy to contact the very responsive property management team with questions. While the driveway was steep, being able to park in the garage to unload and then load-up for departure was a real plus. Would definitely stay there again when visiting the Highlands..

New years

Lovely house, great open plan for enjoying being together.. close to town in a very quiet neighborhood. Upscale appliances and easy gas logs fireplaces in living area and on porch. If you plan on cooking and dinning need napkins, place mats etc. otherwise well equipped but short on wine glasses.

Nice place to stay, very close to town (Highlands)

Nice house, very close to downtown Highlands. Well decorated, well furnished and very comfortable. Really enjoyed the screened in porch with great fireplace. Kitchen and eating areas all very well stocked and comfortable. In case you did not notice, they do NOT provide any firewood, so bring or order your own (to me this is pretty inconvenient and a bit of penny pinching by the renter). I have never had to do this before and have rented 10+ houses in Highlands. But would stay again, just have to factor firewood into the budget.

Close to town and quiet

This property was very close to town and the neighborhood was quiet. The house was spacious and had everything we needed for our stay. We loved the outdoor wood burning fireplace on cold evenings and loved making s’mores. The highlands realty team were helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting to stay in the highlands area.

Amazing Home, perfect location

We had the best time last week staying in this beautiful home! From check in to check out everything went very smoothly. The home is located very close to downtown and easy access to other towns such as cashiers. We had firewood delivered for the outside fire place and had the twin beds made into a king and it made sleeping arrangements just perfect- everything was top notch and all needed items provided we only had to get some toilet paper. paper towels, trash bags but we left what we did not use for the next guests. We will 100% stay at this property again- it was so close to dry falls and other trails and had trails in the area. if you are looking to stay in highlands this home is great and affordable!
