Great little house!

We came for 3 nights, my mom and me. Walking distance to downtown Highlands. Was very comfortable! Bed was great, and perfect size house. Loved the little porch. Shower was bigger than I was expecting! Had a great time!

Charming cabin in the heart of Highlands

We went to Highlands for our anniversary weekend and wanted a place that was in walking distance to downtown. The cabin was perfect for us. It's small but had plenty of room for both of us and a great screened in porch where we could enjoy the cool evenings. It's a short walk to all the downtown restaurants and shops with sidewalks on almost the entirety of the walk. We will definitely be back!

Charming little cottage in a good location

We loved the location! A quick drive into town, or you can walk it if the weather is nice. Perfect for two people. The screen porch is very cozy and we were able to cook breakfast every morning. We appreciated the washer and dryer, and the dishwasher.

This cottage provided the perfect little getaway to the NC mountains for my partner and I. We really, really enjoyed the walkability into downtown Highlands and the cottage itself :) highly recommend the Satulah Mountain trail for a day hike and the Ugly Dog for a bite to eat after.

Great cabin, not quite in the woods

This is a great cabin for one person or a couple with easy access by car or a ten minute walk to Main Street in Highlands. It is also a convenient base for excursions out to Cashiers, Sapphire, etc. Matthew and Alexandra, the owners, are quick to respond to questions and are great to work with. Excellent ease of access to the property.
