Nice and Relaxing Stay

My sister and I had a wonderful time at our cabin. It was nice to arrive with the cabin clean, the lights on and tv going after a long drive. The location was perfect for getting all the necessities we needed for our stay as well.

Our stay at Highlands Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Enjoyed the cabin with our Golden Retriever. The cabin was as expected and very clean and well appointed. We went to two State Parks and saw a waterfall in one and had a wonderful lunch both days at Cantaberry Restaurant in Ellijay. Only complaint was the hot tub was so chlorinated that when I got in I had to get out as I couldn't breathe. The yard is fenced but not easy to get around in as on such an uneven slope. The cabin is perfect for two that just want a comfortable place to relax. We went out for lunches and cooked dinners in as I didn't want to drive the gravel road after dark.

Five Day Visit in July 2022

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We definitely enjoyed our stay at Highlands Cottage. The location is both quiet and private as the back porch faces away from the roadway and is not readily visible or close to other cabins.The weather was quite hot during our stay so we did not make use of the hot tub or the fire pit. The screened porch was great for relaxing outside. At some times of the day it was just too hot to sit outside. Thus we were appreciative of the strength of the A/C unit and were able to maintain comfortable temperatures throughout our visit.Management was both professional and helpful, but not intrusive. Finding the cabin was easy, especially since my GPS worked the entire way there. However, I would take management's advice and preprint the directions as the cabin would not be easy to find without GPS or the instructions.We would like to return in a cooler season.

Easy check-in. Did wish the property had a few more kitchen basics like olive oil for pans, a few basic seasonings/dried herbs would be nice. Overall great though.

We absolutely loved this cabin! It was perfect for our short getaway. We especially felt secure allowing our fur baby free to run around in the enclosed areas without a leash but with our supervision. Everything was clean and tidy. I wouldn’t have known it was a pet friendly cabin if not for the description and complementary pup treats! The extra deck with the hot tub and solar lights were also a plus. We definitely look forward to visiting again!

Wonderful

We had an amazing and romantic birthday weekend. We didn’t use the fire pit because the steps were very steep and narrow. The road to get there was one car wide mountain side which was a little rough. Everything else was wonderful!

Absolutely Amazing!!

My husband and I came for a quick getaway for my birthday. Hands down my best cabin experience. If you have fur babies and want a quaint and quiet getaway, this is perfect! Very clean and extremely dog friendly. We enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. If you cook, they have everything you need. Highland Cottage is beautiful!! And your fur babies will feel right at home. We can’t wait to go back!!❤️

Questionable Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin was very small; however it did have a king size bed, and the furniture in the family room was comfortable. We had our dog with us and even though the yard was fenced, it was a horrible lot. We didn't use the hot tub; it was dirty with debris floating in it and not the best smelling. It should be drained and cleaned (they say it is after every stay, it's not). Last there is no view, unless you like trees. I wouldn't stay here again.

Amazing Birthday

My wife and I stayed 4 nights along with our pup for my birthday. We had an amazing time. The cabin was cozy and just right for the 3 of us. We enjoyed the hot tub in the early morning and evenings. We drove the wifes car and had no issues getting up to the cabin even as low as her car sits. The fenced in yard was perfect for our boston terrier. We are already looking to book our next cabin for our anniversary...Sliding rock cabins are definitely the way to go if you have pets!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed in several cabins that Sliding Rock offers that are pet friendly. Of them all, this one was not our favorite. While it was clean and they provided items for our pets, the bathroom sink was severly clogged, not allowing water to drain for hours after use. The stairs going down to the hot tub are very steep and my small dogs were unable to navigate them so most of the yard was unusable to us. There appears to be a potential electrical issue as the lights in the cabin sporadically flicker and outlets sometimes don't work. The main TV in the living room does not have smart capabilities leaving us unable to watch Nexflix, HULU, etc unless we wanted to sit in the secondary bedroom on a twin daybed to watch. There are plenty of wild animals to be seen and the screened porch is a big plus. WE will use Sliding Rock again, but it will be in a different cabin.

Deer visited us every morning and evening. We counted 14 in all. We went hiking every day and went into Blue Ridge for ice cream. We did lock ourselves out one day and Sliding Rock sent someone immediately to our rescue. They are so great and we will continue to come back and stay with them as often as possible.
