There were 3 couples that all enjoyed the stay. Multiple times people commented how much they were happy with the house. The owners responded quickly to all questions and cared about our experience. I would recommend the house.

Cozy house with a distance view
Listing was very accurate. Hosts were helpful and easy to reach. Full size washer and dryer in the garage was nice. Whole house was very clean. It had nice touches that made it feel like a home, not the usual inexpensive art and decor. My only negative is the sheets were polyester (many other rentals use these). They do not breath. The location was very quiet, all private single homes. However, the road into the house is very narrow, not wide enough for two cars. It was kind of nerve-racking wondering if we were going to meet another car on the road. (There is no shoulder, just off the road or into side of the hill)

My girlfriends & I had a wonderful stay. The home is very comfortable & has plenty of room to spread out. It wasn’t walkable for us but could be walked if you don’t mind a longer walk. Would definitely stay again.

Highlands wedding
Conveniently located close to town. The home was clean and well appointed with a appliances and cooking utensils. The house was easy to get in and out of. We enjoyed the deck and TVs to stay on top of college and NFL games. We enjoyed the coffee table books about the history of the Highlands. Definitely would recommend to others visitors to the area. The ice maker was a little wonky. So for the late review

Cozy mountain home
We loved a lot of things about this home. The bedrooms are spacious, and the beds were comfy with nice linens. The kitchen is big and well stocked. The decor is perfecto. The location is great!! Communication with owners was easy and efficient. Our only two complaints were: we could not use the fireplace (that is what you want in the chilly mountains!) and checkout was 10am, which seemed a bit too early. Overall, it was a wonderful weekend in a cozy mountain home, and we look forward to returning.
