My mom and I loved our stay at this apartment! The location is super convenient to town, and it was clean and stocked with plenty of fresh towels. Check-in and checkout were very straightforward, and there was ample parking for both of our cars. Would definitely stay here again!
We spend time in Highlands every summer. We really enjoyed staying at Ali’s place this past week. It was clean, cozy, and very close to downtown. Ali responded quickly to my questions and check-in was a breeze. We would definitely like to stay at his place again.
This is a great little cottage near Main St in Highlands. Clean, comfortable and well maintained. The host provided dvd’s, games, streaming tv, books and magazines for the few rainy days we experienced. The beds were comfortable and the pillows soft. No dishwasher, but we weren’t making any big meals, so no big deal for us. We would definitely try to return. *****
Great place for our stay!Only draw back is the driveway. The place sits in a curve so it is hard to see when pulling out. It is in a mountain community so the curves cannot be helped. I did suggest a mirror to the host and they were understanding, but unfortunately it is out of their control as the neighbor across the street is not willing to be helpful.
My family and I enjoyed our stay here - super close to town, quiet, and the place had all amenities needed for an easy stay including all the kitchen needs.
This unit is in a quiet mountain setting, and the property is surrounded by beautiful mountain rhododendron. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything one might need to prepare meals, allowing me to cook a Christmas dinner for my family. Beds were comfortable, and the WiFi worked flawlessly.
Great location minutes from downtown Highlands and many attractions. Very cozy, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. We enjoyed our stay.
The space was great and perfect for me being in town for a friend’s wedding. Ali even called me at almost 11 PM at night to address an issue. I’ll definitely be coming back and staying here if I visit the Highlands again
