Great stay

The house was so cute and very clean. Beds and couch were extremely comfortable. We loved the location, up and away from the busy section of town but still close to everything. Really appreciated the baby friendly toiletries and cleaning supplies too! We’d love to stay here again. We have family in the area so we visit often.

Wonderful getaway

I’ve been going to Sandy Hook for more than 40 years, but this year I decided to stay close to the beach. The cottage made my multiple visits to Highlands even more special than ever. I celebrated my mother’s 77th birthday along with my aunt. The closeness of the cottage made my four day three night visit so much more rememberable. The cottage had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. The host Mia made sure that nothing was missing from our enjoyable stay at the cottage.
