About this property

Modern and Spacious Cottage Minutes to Main Street, Highlands, NC -- NEW Listing

Recently remodeled cottage with plenty of room to relax and unwind, perfectly situated between scenic walking trails and the charm of downtown Highlands. This very spacious home features 2 living rooms, 2 en-suite master bedrooms with king-size beds, a large kitchen with gas stove, and inviting outdoor spaces including a deck with grill and a cozy fire pit area.

You’ll feel wonderfully secluded while still being just two blocks away, along easy sidewalks, from all the dining, shopping, and attractions that Highlands has to offer. Incredible hikes and waterfalls are also close by in this one-of-a-kind mountain town, often called the Aspen of the East. You are going to feel so torn between exploring the trails, dining in Highlands, or spending time in this incredible home.

Great host. Road is noisy in the morning and wish more lights and updates on the exterior worked and the outside grounds were nicer for the price.

Great house for two couples!! Cozy and comfy! We slept great in the firm yet soft beds with great sheets!! (I'm a sheet snob:-) the bedrooms are separated by the living/dining room, so afforded good privacy. Loved the gas fireplace, a nice touch for the chilly weather. The location is excellent! Literally two walkable blocks into town. Wonderful communication with the house manager, Janet. She was proactive and went above and beyond to make our stay extra special!! Thank you, Janet! We definitely will rent again when we are back in the area.
