This is a great house in our favorite neighborhood in Highlands! Easy walk to town but tucked up in the mountains with a great view. The host was very responsive. We’d definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful stay in Highlands! The house was exactly as pictured—comfortable, well-appointed and a great home base for our time in the mountains. The host was extremely responsive and helpful, and the location was perfect—so convenient to downtown Highlands while still feeling like a mountain getaway.And best of all, the weather in late August and September was absolutely heavenly. Cool mornings, beautiful days and such a welcome escape from the Florida heat! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily return.

This home was exactly as described - convenient location, comfortable king sized beds, well stocked kitchen! We loved having one suite downstairs with its own living space. We stayed over Memorial Day weekend for my son’s wedding and really appreciated the double garage when unloading and coming home in the evenings. We would definitely stay again!
