About this house rental

This one story, open floor plan mountain home is perfect for a couples getaway or a family gathering with your four legged family member. We happily allow two dogs to join you. If you have additional dogs, please notify us.

Packing and unpacking the vehicle is easy since parking is just a few steps away from the entrance. When entering the cottage, warm hues will instantly welcome you into the dining room where you will notice the beautiful, vaulted wood ceiling, antler chandelier and stone fireplace. The dining room fireplace quickly warms the chill from a cool morning and the two overstuffed chairs invite you to relax with a cup of coffee. Just beyond the dining area is the open kitchen, nicely situated between the dining room and living area, making it easy for the chef to be a part of every conversation. The dining room trestle table creates a space of warmth for family to gather around. While the kitchen’s antique game table is made for two to enjoy a meal or play a game of chess or checkers.

The kitchen is fully equipped to prepare an endless variety of meals. The top-of-the-line appliances are only the beginning. If you enjoy cooking, you will be delighted to find sturdy pots and pans, roasting pan, crock pots, a rice cooker, air fryer and more. A burr grinder for freshly ground coffee and Hamilton Beach Flexbrew Trio coffee maker (k-cup, single or carafe brew) stand ready to make your morning brew. If you prefer, take a seat at the bar in the comfortable bar stools, overlooking the kitchen.

Stepping to the living area from the kitchen, notice the large stone fireplace and beautiful Ambrosia Maple wine bar and cabinet. Above the fireplace is a large Smart TV with cable TV. You will also find many board games, books, and puzzles, for all ages to enjoy on those lazy mountain days.

The spacious screened-in porch is the ideal space to dine outside or spend time catching up with family on the comfy lounge furniture…rain or shine.

At day's end, a restful night’s sleep awaits in comfortable beds. The master bedroom offers a king memory foam bed with linen bedding, Smart TV with cable TV, ceiling fan and private bathroom with double sink, combination shower and tub. Note that jets are not operating in tub.

At the opposite end of the hallway is the second bedroom with a queen memory foam bed, linen bedding, and private bath with two sinks and combination tub/shower. The queen bedroom has its own large Smart TV with cable.

With twin bunk beds, the third bedroom is ideally suited for children or young teens. The bunk beds have memory foam mattresses with linen bedding. The room is also equipped with a flat screen TV and cable. The third bathroom is located in the hallway, just outside this bedroom, and offers a shower, pedestal sink and toilet. The stacked washer & dryer is thoughtfully located between the three bedrooms.

On a cool night build a fire in the fire pit, roast marshmallows and watch the treetops wave in the night breeze. The fenced in outdoor patio also offers a Weber gas grill connected to the house propane line so it is always ready to grill. Bluebird Day Cottage has a whole house generator so you will never be without power. This is essential for a comfortable mountain experience!

Finally, Bluebird Day Cottage is wonderfully situated in Highlands. Easily walk to downtown Highlands restaurants and boutiques. Step out the door and hike the greenway, Sunset Rock or to the top of Satulah Mountain.

First of all, the house was spotless. We've stayed in numerous rentals, and I think this house was the cleanest. It was also beautifully decorated. We had a our two labrador retrievers with us. They had a blast in the Highlands. NOTE: If you have large dogs, they will definitely be able to escape the yard so do not leave them unattended. The house is in a great location!

Lovely well maintained cottage. Beautifully quiet and serene. The perfect balance between gracious comfort and understated charm. Yes, a Marvelous Surprise! Welcome supplies anticipated and provided by the kind owner to help with our arrival. Our favorite things, the large screened porch and gated fire pit area for guests with dogs. Well appointed Kitchen provided the opportunity to take advantage of farm to table dining (great produce markets nearby). The worst part was having to leave!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this house as it was convenient to downtown and a nice house and allowed us to bring our dog to also enjoy Highlands with the many other dog owners.

The house was perfect for my husband and me to relax for a week. It was clean and comfortable and looks just like the photographs in the listing. The screened in porch was a perfect spot to read a book. The location is fantastic. You feel like you are tucked away in the mountains, but it is an easy 10 minute walk to the shops on Main Street in case you feel the urge to get out and about. I highly recommend staying here!
