Lovely little getaway

Exactly as described. Tucked away just outside of Main Street in Highlands, up a hill and hidden away. Beautiful mountain view. Not fancy but very clean and comfortable. (Not a full kitchen, but microwave, refrigerator/freezer, coffee maker, sink). We look forward to coming back!

Wonderful property!

We had a wonderful time! Linda was so hospitable and communicative. The property was clean and comfortable. The view was amazing! My only complaint was the online listing says Walk to town!!” and the property is definitely too far away from town to walk so you do have to deal with parking which was not a major problem but not an accurate description of the location. That said, the location is near many nice restaurants and Main Street. We would definitely stay at this property again!

Exactly what we needed!

My wife and I had a short but wonderful stay in this beautiful mountain view studio apartment! Linda was a gracious host and made sure everything was perfect for us. She was so much fun to talk to! While it is attached to her larger home, the studio apartment has its own entrance from the outside and is very private. Note that there is no full kitchen in the apartment; it is kitchenette with a microwave. It's a very short and simple drive to the downtown area. We'd definitely stay there again!

Location, location, location!

Mountain Watch and my hostess, Linda, were exactly what I needed to recharge and relax in beautiful Highlands. This apartment is the perfect location to downtown Highlands and all of the local attractions. The king sized bed was super comfy and the fireplace made it extra cozy. There is also a fold out couch, if needed. The kitchenette was perfect for morning coffee and breakfast. Who needs to cook with all of the fabulous restaurants in town? The dressing area has the perfect amount of closet space and a dressing table to primp at. The patio of the apartment has cute Adirondack chairs to enjoy the cool air and view. I look forward to staying at Mountain Watch again and again. Thanks for your hospitality, Linda!

No A/C and difficult

There was no A/C and we did not see it on the booking nor could we find it on the home site. Getting from the bedroom to the bathroom requires a climb up of 3 giant steps and a climb down of 3 giant steps both boing and returning to the bedroom. The room should have been much less expensive. The lady that owns it "Linda" is a very sweet lady.
