Luxury cabin w/chef kitchen & forest privacy

The Space:

The pine‑scented air greets you as you step onto the expansive deck, where the forest stretches beyond the stone fireplace and the mountain horizon glows at sunset. Inside, the open‑plan living areas invite you to unwind on plush sofas while the chef’s kitchen beckons with its La Cornue stove and Viking appliances. After a day of hiking to nearby waterfalls, you can sink into the primary suite’s king‑size bed and let the quiet of the woods lull you to sleep.

Stag Ridge was an incredibly well decorated and maintained house. The decor, furnishings, kitchen including appliances (La Cornue, Viking, etc), etc etc - everything - were first rate. Clearly the house is loved by the owner. Minutes to town. Peaceful setting. The host - Hotel Homes - was professional, responsive, informative and top notch. We had a great experience and would stay again.

Highlands

The home is lovely and we enjoyed our visit to the Highlands area. Wifi information should be sent with the entrance code email. There was a roller off one of the dining room chairs and antlers off a skull plaque in bedroom when we arrived. Recommend covers over downstairs bathroom and bedroom windows and handrails on steps inside and outside for older people who rent. Hot water knob needs repair in small bathroom upstairs. Thank you fror a lovely stay.
