Beautiful Home!
We loved our stay here! The house is wonderful, and the communication with the owner was very easy. Designed built and decorated by a renowned designer, the house offered a great setting for a peaceful and inspiring getaway. We had a wonderful set up with two houses, and this house was particularly well suited for adults. The other house was perfect for children. So it all worked out great. This house couldn’t have been nicer! We had such a great time! Many thanks to the owner for sharing!

Perfect Location
We loved this property. Perfect amount of room for 6 adults and 1 baby. It was the perfect location- you had beautiful mountain views and were also less than 5 min drive from the Highlands Main Street. You could also walk if you don’t mind very hilly terrain! The house itself is beautiful. We will be back!

Great Place to Stay in Highlands
This is our second time staying at this home and we highly recommend it. It was perfect for our family of four, my wife’s parents and our small dog. Very nice rustic home with excellent views of the mountains and located in very close proximity to main street.

Cant get much closer to Highlands!
The house was well equipped and the views were beautiful. This home is a 15 minute downhill walk into town. Ben, one of the owners, was extremely responsive to any question we had. He was so awesome to work with. Ben even provided fire wood, which we used a lot of and were very grateful for. This is a great house and we were so glad we had the opportunity to spend our son's Fall break together as a family in the home! Thank you Ben!

Fabulous experience
This house is amazing and has an incredible view! The owner was so nice and generous. He included firewood and put up a baby bed for our grandchild. The covered porch with a fireplace and view was my favorite spot. Very easy to walk to Main Street for lunch and shopping. We hope to be able to stay here again next summer!!
