This was a very nice and peaceful place to stay.We enjoyed being in the woods, yet so close to town. Jeff was super responsive to any questions we had. Would stay again!
This is a wonderfully peaceful location with natural beauty all around. We enjoyed the serene surroundings, the secluded drive to the property, and the peaceful time we spent.
We loved our time at Autumn Ridge! It’s a Lovely home nestled in the woods but really close to downtown. Very clean, comfortable and well-appointed. Would definitely stay again!
I loved this property. Everything was clean, there were plenty of towels, coffee, creamer, amenities, and I loved the vibe. My friend was afraid of bears so we didn't spend as much time outside as it is secluded and a dark drive uphill at night, but very close to town. Just have to be careful. The kitchen was charming with all of the lovely mugs and I enjoyed myself and slept well. This is a great stay for more people (there were only two of us), so game nights, a nice big table, etc.. would have been fun. If you're looking for seclusion but still close to town, this is a great place. Owners were lovely and answered all questions. I would recommend this place.

Beautiful location, close to town. Clean, comfortable beds. Had everything we needed. I always read reviews before I choose a place to stay and I can assure you this was a great stay.
We had a wonderful stay! Autumn Ridge was a beautiful home. Extremely clean, comfy beds and beautifully decorated. Close to town, yet quiet and private. Hosts were amazing to work with!
Overall, the house was great. Very comfortable living and sleeping spaces. The house was nice and clean when we arrived, and it is close to downtown as advertised. Would definitely recommend to others. We did wish the kitchen had a few more utensils for cooking and baking. There was only one sharp knife we found and very few measuring cups/spoons. Overall a great stay. Thanks!

We are sorry about the knives. There was a full knife block with steak knives in a block but that seems to have either been stolen or lost. We are replacing that now. Thanks for the comments and your stay! jeff and Kathleen
5 mins to downtown Highlands, very convenient location. Home was clean and felt private. Owners were fantastic to communicate with. Thanks for the hospitality.
