Sophisticated and charming, this architecturally inspired mid-century home offers an open floor plan with over 2,000 square feet of living space and all wood finishes. Beautiful soaring ceilings and fresh designer elements. This one level modern lodge with a step-down living room is sited on a private lot near Mirror Lake, within a 5 minute drive to everything downtown Highlands has to offer. Newly furnished, the home offers AC, Wi-Fi, Flat screen TVs, Fire Pit and a six person Hot Tub. There are 2 fireplaces – one in the living room and one in the dining area, hardwood floors and special touches throughout. Escape to this inviting mountain retreat to relax and recharge in nature and privacy.

Outside, there is a hot tub, stone terrace with fire pit and multiple Adirondack chairs – perfectly lit with cafe lights for romance and for making s'mores. Plus, a screened porch sitting area and connected wrap around dining/party deck with a Weber Gas Grill and umbrella-covered table and chairs. The home is on a private and serene lot surrounded by beautiful N.C. hardwood trees and a trail around the house. Level entry to porches from the house, only 2 steps to main entry from the driveway and covered parking area, and only 5 steps off the rear decks to the outdoor amenities for making memorable nights by a roaring fire.

Inside: 3 spacious bedrooms and 3.5 baths: 2 king bedrooms and the third bedroom with 2 queens... all with large closets. The fully equipped kitchen has everything like home: Keurig coffee maker, waffle maker, toaster oven, blender, pots and pans, mixer, olive oil, spices and more! Enjoy the utility of the kitchen island and separate wet bar and wine/beverage cooler. Laundry room with a large side by side washer/dryer! Office area for catching up on emails or planning your Highlands adventures.

Great location off Billy Cabin Road and near Half-Mile Farm by Old Edwards, less than 5 minutes to town, grocery, award-winning restaurants, Old Edwards Inn, the Wine Shoppe, and amazing boutique shopping! Walk down the hill to Mirror Lake or Apple Lake where you can walk around the lake communities... lovely any time of year! And there is nothing like hiking to the local waterfalls and the mountain parks. Enjoy a toast on Sunset Rock or Glen Falls just minutes away!

Escape the Summer heat and come relax with family or friends above 4000 ft. in elevation or enjoy a roaring file in winter when it snows! Hearing the rain on the metal porch roof is a special treat. Dolly Lodge is your perfect vacation get-away.

Dolly Lodge is hands down the best VRBO property we have visited. It is a haven in the woods, with beautiful details at every turn. We loved it so much that we booked our next visit before leaving! Thank you for a magical week!

We were able to find the house just as described. We were able to relax and enjoy Highland. It is very convenient. Great kitchen that was well stocked. We checked in with the owner to see if we needed to do anything special when we were leaving. A real pleasure to talk with. Great place to get away and relax. Plan to make another trip to Highland and hope to be able to stay at Dolly Lodge.

Dolly Lodge is a beautiful spacious home in a great location less than 2.0 miles from downtown Highlands with a large property in a secluded neighborhood. Would definitely consider staying again for another trip to Highlands.

The house was very comfortable, and very secluded. We really enjoyed our 2 weeks there. It was the perfect escape. Close enough to main street (6 - 7 minutes) but a world away. We caught the leaves perfectly. Created some wonderful memories that will endure.

I come to Highlands every year and rent. This house was by far the best house yet. They have everything you need from a top of the line kitchen to a hot tub & fire pit area. So many areas to relax in. We will definitely be back!

This is our second year to leave the heat and humidity of the Gulf coast behind for a week long escape to Dolly Lodge. Once again, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Phil and Holly's beautiful mountain home! We hope to return soon!

My wife and I have rented in Highlands for nearly 35 years, and this home is by far our favorite. House has the feel of an old Highlands cabin, yet is loaded with modern appliances and amenities. The house maintains it's cozy appeal even with soaring ceilings, and plenty of light. Our family absolutely loved our stay over the Thanksgiving Holiday.

The nicest rental home we’ve ever stayed in. Beautiful and very comfortable. We appreciated that there were three nice, large bedrooms with their own baths plus a powder room. Often there’s only one large bedroom and the other two bedrooms are small with twin beds or bunk beds. This is a home that’s great for several couples to share. And the gorgeous kitchen is fabulous and well stocked. It could be featured in a magazine. The other great benefit is that it’s on one level ( with a sunken living room). So it’s easy to access. There are multiple outdoor sitting areas to enjoy. And a beautiful screened porch. It’s only a few minutes to the Main Street of Highlands. We loved our stay!

The Dolly Lodge is better than ever. This is our 3rd 2 week summer stay. The new kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry room add a lot to the house. I would recommend it to my friends. Thanks Phil for being a great host and we hope to be back in 2023.

We’ve stayed in Highlands multiple times and this was our favorite property. Very convenient to town but still very private with a great outdoor fire pit, hot tub and landscaping/yard. The owners were also great to work with. Looking forward to staying here again soon!

Beautiful home and property. We enjoyed long walks around the neighborhood. Beautifully decorated with an amazing kitchen and very comfortable beds. The hot tub and outdoor fire pit were a great addition. Very close to Main Street. We explored the waterfalls, hiking trails, nature center, horseback riding and great restaurants. We would definitely stay here again!
