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!
