"Beautiful mountain home with spectacular views! The house was absolutely beautiful, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our stay. The road to the home was easy to navigate, much easier than we had expected for the property's location. Natalie was friendly, helpful and always quick to respond. She was a fantastic host!! We enjoyed our stay and will definitely return!"

'Bearadise' Cabin w/ Hot Tub at Hidden Gem Falls!

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice, Waterfall was amazing. Some safety comments. Upstairs shower needs no slip mat. Some rugs on floors, upstairs bathroom, kitchen, were also slippery. Grab bars in both bathrooms would be helpful. Great property overall, beautiful setting."

“Highlands Mountaintop Getaway”

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay in Highlands for our 8 year anniversary! The views from the deck are beautiful, and the setup was perfect, we spent hours out there relaxing in the rocking chairs and playing games at the outdoor table. A huge bonus that wasn't even mentioned in the listing is the extensive board game collection. There's so much to choose from. Inside, the home was spotlessly clean, exceptionally comfortable, and thoughtfully laid out with plenty of surface space to unpack and settle in. The bathroom was spacious, the bed was extremely comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed, including coffee to start our mornings.We would absolutely stay here again!"
