Horrible service

We booked and they took our payment, a week later I send a email about WiFi, they responded that they should have never made reservations because they are closed in the winter. They refunded partial payment but they have not cancelled reservation so Vrbo has not paid us back, after numerous calls to Vrbo ! Very disappointed! BessyC

Cozy cabin, short stay

Nice cozy cabin for 1 or 2 folk plus a four legged friend or two. Easy access to hiking trails or Highlands, if that is your scene. Enjoyed the peace and quiet of the front porch. Picked the hottest weekend of the summer to visit, but still very pleasant. Thank you for sharing your home away from home.

Honeymoon

The cabin was amazing. It was cozy and in a great location for the hikes we had planned. We will definitely stay there again. It's close to town yet feels isolated, which is exactly what we wanted for our honeymoon.

Great Environment

We have stayed in several properties in Highlands area over the years and this place tops the list mainly because of the location. Cabin sits right on beautiful horse pasture and pond stocked with little rainbow trout. Short run to downtown Highlands and all the hiking trails your heart desires. The host was right on attending to our few needs.

Wonderful time!

We loved staying in the cabin with our kids. They enjoyed exploring the large amount of land around the cabin while we sat by the fire pit. We also played with the dogs next door who were all very friendly, and the fed the horses. The trip to town is only about 10-15 minutes up the mountain, and very convenient.
