The property was clean and well stocked. The view was amazing and the beds were comfy. The host was very responsive when I had a few questions during our stay. The walk to town was not as convenient as expected but it was doable. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

Family Wedding weekend

The house was perfect for our weekend stay. We appreciated that each bedroom had its own bathroom. On our first morning there were k-cups available and coffee filters for auto drip coffee. The kitchen was well stocked. The owners were accommodating when we needed something. Thank you for making our trip easy!

Great house, great location, beautiful view, comfy beds. My only suggestion would be to please get better curtains for the sliding door in the primary bedroom. They don’t close all the way and let lots of light in early in the morning, had to hang towels to cover gaps

Highlands visit

The house is located in a lovely and scenic neighborhood very close to downtown Highlands. The house was clean, comfortable and beautifully updated. Check in and check out was easy, and hosts were responsive. We were so busy looking at waterfalls, hiking, and going out for ice cream and dinner, that we didn’t get to spend as much time as we would’ve liked in the house!

Wonderfully Relaxing Weekend

We enjoyed our weekend in Highlands at this charming home. The house was spotless. The check in process was a breeze. The owners were helpful and very responsive. The beds are very comfortable and the home is very tastefully decorated. The kitchen is very well stocked. I loved the dual pot and pods Keurig coffee maker. It was nice to have a choice. We will definitely rent this home again!

Sisters Trip

This was the perfect place for a relaxing get away. The long range views from the deck are great, and though at first the road noise from below is hard to ignore, it soon fades into the background and we never noticed it again. We were up to see the sunrise over the mountains; a wonderful way to start the day. The house gives a feeling of open space and there is plenty of privacy for all. The kitchen is well equipped and well laid out. This was not our first stay in Highlands, but we agreed this house was the best yet.

Excellent location — beautiful, comfortable home

We chose this beautifully appointed home for a getaway weekend — it was perfect! Super comfortable beds, really well equipped kitchen, updated bathrooms, and tons of lounging space for connecting. Appreciated being able to use the garage. Missed the fact that the indoor fireplaces are not working—only drawback for me. Excellent communication with the host. Definitely 5 stars!
