"Main gem of home has to be the expansive covered deck with daybed swing and so many other seating options overlooking the scenic backyard scape and partial lake view. We hung out on the deck every chance we got to enjoy the serene views, wind chimes, nature sounds and rainfalls (and so few bugs!). Other gems: firepit area (didn't use this stay) and dock access to lake with well-built canoe and kayak provided (kids took canoe few times). Too much lake bottom silt for us to want to swim but good cardio exercise walking up/down the 56 sturdy wood platform steps. Driveway somewhat steep and a bit of a challenge for our minivan but alas, you are in the mountains. Plentiful stock of bath/beach towels, linens/pillows/blankets, laundry pods/dish soap and even some board games. In the kitchen frig and pantry by front door, even some staples left from owner/other guests for you to use. Beds comfortable, also the couches! House super clean and so inviting!!Top notch communication with Holly and rental place, and they even send you a link of a guestbook about the house info (keypad access is so easy!) and local area guide of places to visit/eating places. Dry Falls a must see (very close from house)-spectacular waterfall you can walk behind and not far from parking lot. And a swimming water hole down the road from it (Quarry Falls/Bust Your Butt Falls??). Favorite places to eat: Blue Bike Cafe (breakfast/lunch), Four65 Woodfire Bistro (pizza) in downtown Highlands.Hope to return!!"

"Stayed for a few nights with my family as a base camp for all sorts of activities. Home was very comfortable and well laid out. Canoeing in the lake was definitely a highlight. Would definitely stay here again"

"I just LOVED my stay at this cabin. The outdoor space is one of the best I've had the opportunity to enjoy. The front porch has plush oversize seating and a swing for morning coffee and late night relaxation with beautiful lighting. There was also a covered deck area steps away from the house that sat next to the creek which allowed you to stretch out and listed to the water and soak up nature. This cabin had just the right amount of rustic quality with modern finishes in the kitchen and bathroom. The bed was comfortable as well. I will be back."

"Loved the location and was ideal for exploring the area and going into highlands daily. The design and decor are stunning! We were a group of five women up for a relaxing girls weekend and it was perfect for us. Everyone slept great. It is a new build and I think they may still be working through the final punch list because there was some trim work / paint touch ups that seemed to still be in progress. I’m sure when everything is completed it will be perfect. We will be back! "

"This was a perfect stay. Very relaxing. Above and beyond staff. Very hospitable. Love the MCM vibe of the entire property. "

"Property had no Wi-Fi, contrary to the listing. Cell signal very spotty. Major inconvenience, which no other aspect of the property made up for. "

"Your home was the perfect place for our stay. We are back home now and talked about the wonderful vacation we had all the way home. Thank you for making us feel welcome. The next time we plan to visit Highlands, we will be sure to look you up. Great cleanliness, location, amenities (towels,sheets, pillows,etc), also great idea with the leaf blower! Our best VRBO stay ever!"

"Loved the views of the lake. It was clean and spacious. It served our group perfectly. I hope we are able to use the space again next year. This group of friends loves getting together in Highlands. "

"My husband and I loved our stay at Sanctuary Cottage. The home was beautifully decorated and the neighborhood was convenient yet quiet. We felt right at home as soon as we walked in, lamps and music on as well as fresh cut flowers to welcome us. We would definitely stay here again!"
