I can't think of a better place to be than Highlands, NC. The only thing better is a location with the ability to walk everywhere in town and be above a Wine Shoppe! You will access to our Main St. facing front yard with fire pit, tables and chairs. The end to a perfect evening is having a glass of wine while sitting by the fire pit.
Our apartment was remodeled in 2017. Most of the work was done by my Father (a retired Highlands builder). We wanted to keep the characteristics of Highlands but offer modern amenities. Our property is #1 on the Historical Registry for Highlands.

Had our second great stay in the apartment above the Wine Shoppe in Highlands. The apartment had everything we needed and is in a great location. Really nice to be able to pop downstairs and try some great wines.
This was the perfect home base for our trip to the Highlands, NC for a wedding (venue was Old Edwards Inn). Clean, comfortable and convenient to everything! The wine shop below is also great. We would love to come back again!
Outstanding place for very walkable Highlands with great restaurants. Highly enjoyed outdoor area for wine and conversation. Beautiful weather in June. Also checked out nearby waterfalls.

This was a cozy, clean, perfect location. The hosts Steve and Stephanie are incredibly welcoming. Definitely will be going back.
We stayed in a VRBO rental above the Wine Shoppe in downtown Highlands. The property was neat and clean. Conveniently located to everything that we wanted to do...shops, restaurants within walking distance. Had a great time...plan to return again...left the property spotless and clean....
Apartment had all the comforts of home - well stocked kitchen, very spacious and comfortable and clean. Great location above the Wine Shop. Enjoyed having a glass of wine and visiting with the guests at the Wine Shop. Will definitely come back!! We planned to grill steaks based on pictures on VRBO - disappointed to find no grill. Highly recommend adding a grill.
Beautiful apartment in downtown Highlands. The space is bigger than it looks in the pictures. Owner was very pleasant and took care of all of our needs. Highly recommend this place.

Absolutely perfect spot and great apartment! The place is incredibly spacious with a huge bedroom, a very large living area and an extra large kitchen! We loved having that outdoor space available as well! We were super surprised by how big it was! To top it off, the bed is super comfortable and the location can’t be beat! It’s right on Main Street and walking distance to everywhere!
