About this house rental

Backwoods Bungalow in Highlands, NC is tucked underneath a lush canopy topped by century old white pines. It has been transformed into a 2 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom private mountain retreat. This bungalow has two master suites, each with a King size bed and ensuite. Upstairs is also a Full size sleeping loftbed.
Backwoods Bungalow, nestled in at over 4100 feet in elevation, is a short 3 minute drive to downtown Highlands and in the midst of hiking trails, multiple golf courses, scenic drives, waterfalls, fine dining, shopping and spectacular views of Nantahala National Forest and the Great Smoky Mountains.
The extensive renovations include a completely rebuilt stone fireplace for those chilly mountain nights, new screened porch, flat screen TVs, new appliances, fresh no VOC paint for the interior, new paint on the exterior, quartz kitchen countertops, solid oak flooring throughout, completely renovated bedrooms, bathrooms and a new roof.
This professionally designed retreat has an open great room with reclaimed tin on the vaulted ceilings, wood beams and stone fireplace. The great room features custom lighting, a flat screen television with DVD player and many natural details to make you feel at home. Additionally, it offers dining for six and a spacious living room, which opens onto the screened porch. The well-appointed kitchen and stainless steel gas grill provide the perfect combination for a night of entertaining or a nice meal with the family. For those who prefer some quiet time or like to make the most of a rainy day, you can relax with a good book in the sleeping loft, play board games or browse the wireless internet from any location you choose. This cabin boasts two master suites, each with its own king-sized bed, smart TV and private bathroom. Each room features Egyptian cotton sheets, warm quilts and down comforters.

The best part is that Lark Lodge(formerly Camp Carlee), Peek-a-boo Paradise, Glen Falls and Backwoods Bungalow are all properties managed by us on the same street, so they provide the perfect accommodations for larger groups that like to have their own space as well.

Gorgeous property! Our family of three rented this cozy home for the Thanksgiving holiday week. The home and finishings were beautiful, beautiful contemporary mountain feel. Location was superb! Glenn Falls hike was our favorite, located just a street over. Our 3 year old son loved the little reading nook loft - so adorable! Fireplace inside and fire pit outside were used daily, amazing to have the wood available for purchase in the honor box. The home was so clean and inviting when we arrived. Best VRBO we have ever used! Looking forward to coming back in the future :)

Lovely place! I wasn't feeling well most of the trip, but my family really enjoyed themselves. Even though I was sick, it was such a sweet, comfortable place to be feeling bad. It snowed and made it even better for everyone.

More often than not, when my husband and I visit the Highlands, we either end up with a too-large home, or a too-tiny hotel room. This cottage was the perfect size. Home was beautifully appointed, nice size kitchen, outfitted w/everything a chef needs, bedroom was spacious, bed was too comfortable--we ended up sleeping in, and we never do that. The location was fabulous. Private but close to everything. We will definitely visit this one again.
