Mountain Getaway

We booked this place last April in anticipation of a hot Florida August and weren't disappointed in either the cool mountain temps or the the unit. The unit, which is on the top floor of a duplex, is spacious, with two bedrooms, a full kitchen, living room and even a laundry room with a washing machine. Other amenities include satellite TV with access to your favorite streaming apps. The unit is conveniently located on the edge of downtown Highlands and a stone's throw from the Bascom art museum. A full service grocery store is 2 minutes away. Because of its relative centrality, being at the junction of Routes 106 and 64, this location gives you access to a number of beautiful hiking trails within just a 10 mile radius. If you're tired from hiking or need some "me" time, chill out on the deck and watch the hummingbirds. Our host Ali was very responsive to our needs and helped make this a very enjoyable stay.

Owner To Owner

We have been with VRBO since getting our cabin 18+ years ago. Came to Highlands for a family gathering and due to our place being rented we had to find accommodations. We had a wonderful stay. The place was clean, convenient, well stocked, and as presented. Greatly appreciated!

Great stay at the mountain cottage

My wife and I had a 4 night stay at the cottage in early August. The place is really nice and quaint. Plenty of room for the two of us and could easily accommodate 4. Check in was easy. Didn't need to communicate during our stay. Location is a short distance to downtown Highlands. I know others have mentioned it, but not sure I would walk it given lack of sidewalks for part of the way on an especially curvy road but it's an easy 2 minute drive. We didn't use anything in the kitchen other than the coffee maker but looked to be nicely stocked and functional. Would definitely stay again.

Highlands apt

Very clean property. It was great. Bed was very comfortable. Very close to town. All was great. It’s an old building that needs a really good air purifier. Other than that it’s great.

Great place!

My only complaint is that even though it was clean, it seemed like there was still a lot of pet dander that bothered me. I took Claritin. Hopefully the cleaners can move on that feedback. Everything else was awesome! I was able to walk to town, Bascom, smokehouse, Davis wines, mill creek trails, etc. the sidewalk picks up at Bascom, so you’re walking on the side of the road for a couple minutes. No big deal for me, but others may not like it. Would absolutely stay again.

In Town Mountain Cottage Apartment

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Gem of a find so close to downtown for a great price. Check in and out was seamless, and we had everything we could have needed at the apartment. The owner was great with communication. Not sure if it was due to a storm before we got there or not but the WiFi was down. I notified the owner just so he was aware, and he had a crew out there within a few hours to fix the cables that were down. Cozy apartment, and we will be back!

Christmas in Highlands

Our stay was cozy and comfortable - the house was nicely appointed with everything we needed. It was nice to spend time together sitting in front of the fire at ‘home’ and we were located right in town, which was so convenient! I would highly recommend!

We enjoyed our visit here. Very clean and quiet. The drawers and cabinets in the kitchen were labeled making it easy to find what we needed. Close to town. We were less than 5 minutes from my sister who was staying in the RV park in town.
