Gorgeous home!

This was the most beautiful home I have stayed at in highlands! So many designer touches- the rugs, paneling, bedding, art, etc! Wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

Such a special place!

We loved our stay! The house is so charming; lots of space and it had all the conveniences of home! And the owners are super communicative. We were also relieved that the roads and driveway leading to the house weren’t excessively steep and it was an easy, short drive into town. We had such a great time and can’t wait to return!

Girls Weekend

My friends and I stayed here for a girls weekend. The property is so cute and we will definitely book again when we come back. It’s close to town and had everything we needed. Communication with the property management team was stellar! Lawton was extremely responsive and overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Very nice roomy cabin

Everything was perfectly clean and comfortable. Big bedrooms with nice closets. Kitchen was well appointed and roomy. When we first drove up it seemed a little far from town, but once we kinda got used to the curvy roads in Highlands it was nice and close - about 5-10 minutes to everything. I’d recommend this place to anyone!

Luxury for a girls weekend

Fantastic property!! We couldn’t have asked for better. Rooms are very spacious. The decor is so modern yet compliments the beauty of WNC nature that surrounds the property. You can’t beat the two mile drive to downtown. We are so grateful for this owner renting to us! We’d book again in a heartbeat!!!

Lovely retreat home in the Highlands!

We had a wonderful experience staying at this property. The check in process was easy and we were able to check in a little early, which was great! The house was adorable and very comfortable for my teen daughter and me and my husband. Great decor, lovely kitchen and bathrooms, comfy couches and beds. The loft area is super cute too! It was just a few minutes from downtown, so very convenient to all the shops and dining, as well as to trailheads, hiking and waterfalls. We truly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this comfy and spacious home away from home!

Fabulous house

House was perfect; communication with Evolve was terrible. Never received checkin information or check out information. Fyi you apparently have to create an Evolve account and login to view anything other than payment info. Loved the house and would definitely rent again! Perfect stay 😊

The home was lovely and clean. The kitchen was amply stocked with necessary items. There were not enough hand towels in the kitchen or the bathrooms. We could not use the inside fireplace because the pilot light was not lit and we could not figure out how to light it. The owners were extremely nice and accommodating. We had a visit from a Mama bear and cubs and were thankful we all locked our cars. The trees come right up to the house so if you lean toward claustrophobic, this is definitely not the property for you. Two of our guests, one from Geneva and one from Denver, had a very difficult time. Clearing the brush a bit around the house would make it more welcoming and enjoyable.

Beautiful cabin

My family and I stayed at this cabin for New Years Eve. The place is very clean, beautifully decorated and well equipped. The location is OK, we would have liked to have more mountain views but having it closer to the main road when arriving at night gave us peace of mind. It was also close by to shops and restaurants which also came handy. I have to say that communicating with the house manager was not posible, not sure if we would have had a problem how fast she would habe been able to resolve it. This morning as we left, I sent her a text and she never replied. Anyhow, we loved everything about this cabin and we will definitely rent it again in the near future. For us having a place to stay that feels like home is a must, and this cabin had very much that feel.

Great location - really close to downtown Highlands and some great hiking spots. We had plenty of room and were able to eat several meals in. Only complaint would be the multiple crickets we found indoors - one was several inches long.

Beautiful getaway in convenient location

This is one of the most beautiful rentals we’ve ever enjoyed…. Comfortable, decorated to a tee, and well-appointed. Can’t wait to come back on our next trip to Highlands. Beautiful. Communication with the cleaning service point person was the only negative…. They never responded to our early check in requests and they also didn’t stock the house with toilet paper. That was all with the rental agency, not with the home itself.., the only place for improvement!

Very lovely!

We really loved our stay! The house is absolutely so gorgeous and decorated perfectly. Great towels and sheets and pillows. The twin bed mattresses are really think and uncomfortable for adults but would be ok for small children The oven wouldn’t turn on and we ready everything we could online but couldn’t get it to work. I did text the contact but didn’t hear back. Overall we loved it!

Awesome Mountain house w/great updates

Wonderful location - house is as advertised and is better in person than the great photos on the listing. Only issue is the room with twin beds has a door with clear glass - so zero privacy for that room and it Won’t keep sound / light out. They should fix that. Otherwise wonderful ! We will be back !
