Amazing views, excellent location……plan to stay there again!

In the Top of the Knob neighborhood, this beautiful home is the best of all worlds - high enough for unobstructed views of mountains as far as you can see, secluded enough to be completely out of the hustle & bustle, but just a quick 5 minute drive to downtown Highlands!
Anne is the perfect host! We were greeted with a welcome basket of wine, snacks & a delicious coffee cake. She stocked the fridge with beverages, butter & cream for coffee. A wide variety of teas and coffee were also provided. Anne gives recommendations for hikes, restaurants & more. We will definitely be back!

The stay was amazing! House is beautiful, comfortable, convenient to town. Owner went out of her way to make sure we were well taken care of - we actually got married on the beautiful deck with amazing views of the mountains.
Will definitely return and spend more time there. You couldn't find a better place with care, comfort and beauty.

You search and search on VRBO for just the right place. You stare at the pictures repeatedly, study the location on the map, and wonder if the view is really that good. You can stop now. This home really is that good. The location is amazing and the view is sublime. Perfect for 2 couples. To get a porch and view like this so close to town is very difficult. We immediately signed up for next year. That should tell you everything.

We built so many special memories while spending 4 days here. The host provides everything you need for a great experience. The views and sunrises are spectacular. We look forward to coming back. Thanks for your hospitality. John and Sandy

Top of the Knob is the perfect location to be close to town yet feel far away. This home is well appointed, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We especially enjoyed the hummingbirds’ daily visits to the porch. A perfect, relaxing stay!

Absolutely perfect
Top of the Knob is a perfect location in Highlands - so convenient to everything and a lovely morning mountain view. Carl and Anne are incredible hosts and their home is lovely, super comfortable and equipped with anything you could possibly need! Bed was crazy comfortable and we spent many hours enjoying the gas fireplace (no messy ashes!!). Anne was in residence downstairs during the first part of our stay but we never heard her, and only saw her a few times- very unobtrusive. Overall a truly delightful stay!

In Town Convenience & Mountain Views
Enjoyed the spectacular mountain views along and the ability to walk to downtown Highlands (quite uphill on the return but no issue). Property manager Carl and owner Anne were helpful and very responsive. Enjoyed the welcome goodies. Beds were comfortable.

Excellent property for visit of 4 to Highlands. Master BR has king bed, with tub in bath; second BR has two singles, with shower in bath. An earlier reviewer said it was walking distance to town—we think that it is a bit of an overstatement, but it’s definitely only a short drive. An earlier reviewer commented on the presence of the owner downstairs—we found that to be no problem or issue whatsoever, we never saw or heard her. We would have no hesitation to rent this property again.

Perfect for a small party. We attended a wedding with 3 adults. The homeowners stayed in the lower level. No issues with that. Nicely stocked with towels, comfortable beds, nice kitchen and welcome basket!

Perfect!
This property has the rare combination of spectacular mountain views along with a location that is close enough to downtown to allow walking, if desired. The property manager Carl was incredibly responsive and helpful. The home was clean, quiet and with updated amenities. Definitely recommended and we hope to return here soon!

Owners were super responsive and flexible when our dates changed slightly. The house is perfectly located and just the right size for a couple or small family. Amazing view of the mountain and a cozy fireplace that was perfect for cold mornings and the cold rainy day when we mostly stayed inside.

Thanksgiving Get Away
Absolutely breath taking views! Beautiful, very clean home. Loved the warm note from the owners and the "goodies" upon arrival. I wouldn't stay anywhere else if you want a place where you can breathe and relax with unobstructed mountain views!

Perfect mountain retreat!
Beautiful and comfortable home with a spectacular view from the huge deck on the back of the house. The owner was very accommodating and responsive. The house had all the comforts of home and then some. We are already hoping this place is available for our next trip to Highlands. The consistent 5 star ratings are well earned!
