Highlands hideaway yet it’s as close to downtown as you can get
Upon arrival you’re greeted by a very welcoming neighborhood and large parking area for the house. Everything inside the house is very intentional and we were happily greeted by a nice welcome note and bottle of wine! They supply anything you would ever need for your stay. It’s odd to say but they supply the “right” amount of things without stuffing the house with too much stuff. We were looking forward to the amazing outdoor space and fire pit but unfortunately we were there during the Countywide burn ban so we settled for the interior fireplace which was just as cozy and inviting. Thanks for a great stay!

Perfect location; perfect place!
Stayed at this house for four nights while in town for a wedding. Location could not have been better, had everything we needed and then some. Loved the open kitchen and living area, amazing deck, fire pit, and little stream. Beds were comfortable and with plenty of pillows for us and our two guests. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great place to stay in Highlands. So glad we found it.

Wonderful Stay in Highlands
We had an excellent stay in Jighlands. The house was exceptionally clean and well furnished. The kitchen was very well stocked with 2 types of coffee makers and coffee. Each of the two bedrooms was comfortable and well furnished. Each had its own bathroom. Every light switch was labeled. The house is very comfortably furnished, and the covered deck is very comfortable. In short, this was an exceptionally good stay.

Fabulous long weekend in the mountains
We loved our stay in this Highlands cottage. All the amenities we needed. Loved the back porch. It was perfect for relaxing, morning coffee and watching the afternoon rain. Convenient to great lunch and dinner spots. The fire pit was perfect for dessert s’mores. Would love to come back!

Highland Retreat
The place we stayed was perfect. Everything was as advertised, and we had all we needed. The most difficult item was figuring out how to open the bear proof garbage can, but we eventually figured that out. Our host was most responsive on a couple of questions. This was a very comfortable and convenient place to stay.

Great cottage in Highlands
This was a pleasant, cozy cottage near downtown Highlands. The kitchen is particularly well-equipped -- a bonus if you have a chef in the family! Perfect for 1 or 2 couples looking for a Highlands getaway!

Cozy cabin in the mountains perfect for a getaway. Every amenity was available that we needed and the fireplace was the perfect centerpiece. All of the tvs were equipped for streaming in addition to puzzles and games for entertainment. Very convenient location close to downtown.
