Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alex I. 20 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great property in a great location. Very well appointed cabin home. Loved it! ##### Alex I. Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rachel D. 2 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We loved staying here! It was very comfortable with plenty of space. The outside fire pit and cornhole boards were great additions. Convenient spot for a mountain getaway where you feel secluded and still within a 15 minute drive to downtown highlands. The only uncertainty was the limited coffee. The house has a keurig and 5 coffee pods, but we had 6 people staying. Overall, it was a perfect house and we would definitely go back! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7932726c-039a-4a75-ab14-73bd76eabf2b-1767396993173.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Rachel D.
