A charming comfortable cottage

My sister and I stayed 3 nights. The cottage is beautifully decorated and has a great flow. The covered back porch w a waterfall and pond was a pleasant surprise. We were out hiking, sightseeing and shopping during the day and we didn’t cook while we were there so our time in the cottage was limited. It is in a great convenient location. I would definitely stay again - maybe Spring or Fall when the weather is pleasanter!

Precious homey stay!

We rented this house for a relaxing girls weekend. This was the most precious cottage to stay in! The house was beautifully decorated and had a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. Upon arrival, the house was spotless. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the living room provided a perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring and cozy up next to the fireplace. The kitchen was fully equipped with modern appliances, making it easy to prepare meals. The outdoor patio area was lovely. Located less than a mile from Main Street shops and dining, the location perfect! Overall, our stay was delightful. The house exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway!

Fabulous as usual!

This was the second time our family stayed in this beautiful, well appointed Highlands home. The location is perfect as it is only 5 minutes to downtown Highlands. The kitchen was stocked full of nice kitchenware and the beds were so comfy! Added bonus was drinking coffee in front of the fireplace each morning! Can’t wait to return.

The perfect stay

I loved everything about this house. It made for the perfect weekend! We met my sister and brother in law to celebrate her 40th birthday. The house was comfortable in every way with meticulously delivered details of hospitality. The decor is beautiful and signals that the owners fully expect guests will take care of the property. The back porch is a dream with a peaceful water feature. The sitting g room was my favorite!

Winter Honeymoon

The cottage is absolutely adorable outside and inside! We had never been to the Carolinas so we very much appreciated the welcome book filled with valuable information about places to eat and fun outdoor activities! Everything was clean and cozy. The outdoor water feature had the most peaceful sound and was beautiful to look at. We plan to return again this summer and will definitely try to rent the same cottage again!

Wonderful unassuming cabin from the outside with a gracious interior

Well appointed home, with all you will need to feel comfortable. Front and Back porch are wonderful to hang out in. Sunroom gives the home extra space to spread out in, so that you do not always have to hang out at night in the formal living room or dinning room. We have already re-booked for 2026

The perfect Fall getaway

We spent a girls’ weekend at this beautiful cottage in the Highlands. Located a short walk to Mirror Lake, the leaves were in full bloom making the outdoor areas even more enjoyable. The cottage was spotless clean and everything was in great working order. Despite being just a short drive to all the area’s amenities, attractions and restaurants, it was like we were alone in the wilderness. The folks at Evolve were fantastic to deal with…a special thanks to Bee! Bravo!

Birthday/Anniversary get away

This mountain home was such a comfortable stay for all of us. The two bedrooms upstairs were very spacious and had plenty of storage for belongings and had comfy beds. Soaps and amenities provided in both the upstairs and the master bath were very much appreciated as were the numerous fluffy towels. The primary suite was quite large and had a great view of the cascading mountain stream outside. The bed was comfortable and again the amenities were great. This is a very well appointed, beautifully decorated home that we would be very happy to visit again. The owners were super responsive to a problem we had with the fireplace and did everything in their power to resolve the issue. We wanted a comfortable place to relax with good friends and this location most definitely fit that criteria.

Perfect Highlands Stay

The house is such a gem. My husband and I visited the area with our young girls (5 and 7). It is impeccably decorated without feeling stuffy, has lots of space, and all the necessities for it to feel like home. We had a small issue with the dishwasher over a holiday weekend, but the property owners addressed it quickly and were apologetic. It is in a prime location close to Highlands and other surrounding sites. We fell in love with the area and can’t wait to visit again! We would definitely come back to the house!
