Trailborn Highlands, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy

Trailborn Highlands, Outdoor Collection by Marriott Bonvoy

8/10 Good
"I really enjoyed my stay. Staff was helpful and southerly pleasant. You can tell they’ve tried to update the property with nice outdoor seating, and plantings. The location is great being right next to downtown Highlands, but just far enough away to where you feel like you’re in the woods. One thing that needs to change is the shower wall grout had a lot of mold or mold, stains, and the carpet smelled like feet or mold. They had obviously cleaned the carpets, but not dried them well. Highlands is in a rainforest and they need to accommodate the wetness better."

Balsam Mountain Inn

10/10 Excellent
"The inn is absolutely beautiful. Loved the huge front porch with the resident yellow cat, the game/puzzle room, and all the antiques in the hallways. The breakfast that was included was delicious and the dining area is beautiful as well. I was surprised how cool the inn stayed without any air conditioning. The ceiling fan and open windows kept us comfortable all night, even on the 2nd floor in August! The only downside was the mattress in our room - it was extremely firm with not much padding. My daughter is a junior at WCU and I've stayed at several hotels in the area, but this was by far my favorite. I'll definitely be back!"

"The condo was very clean and had amenities that made our stay, especially the first night after a long drive, very pleasant. The view was as pictured, and sitting on the balcony listening to the falls was very nice. The hosts responded to any questions we had in a timely manner, and were very helpful. Would definitely recommend Hope someday get back in the fall to see the colors on the mountains across from the waterfalls."
