This house had everything we needed and more! The kitchen was well stocked and the listing was very accurate. The view was beautiful, though we did not enjoy it as much since we requested help finding the pillows for the outdoor furniture and received no response. Overall, a great place though!

Jewel of the Woods is a beautiful mountain home that includes everything you will need for your stay. My granddaughter was married that weeked at Satolah Creek Farm just a few miles from Jewel of the Woods. It's spacious so you are not on top of one another. My great grandsons enjoyed the bunk room with TV and the ping pong table. Of course, gorgeious view of the mountains. Would love to go back and stay a week. And Renata was prompt in answering all questions. If you are looking for a beautiful, quiet, relaxing place, Jewel of the Woods is for you! Susan D.

The property and home are beautiful. The road leading up threw us off due to the “vrbo not welcome” signs posted along the way.

Beautiful, clean cabin, great communication with host, close to Highlands with great shops and restaurants. Convenient to hiking trails and waterfalls in the area. The road back to the house is very narrow with some rough spots, so take your time! Disregard the signs that say “turn around “ and “not welcome.” We felt very welcome, and will definitely consider coming back in the future.

It’s a haul getting up to the property but very worth it! We enjoyed the home so much and our kids (age 11 months to 8 years old) had the best time running around and playing. We really appreciated the baby gate! The bunk bed room was the kids favorite. The house is WELL stocked - the kitchen has everything you need and more, and there are plenty of towels. Also, having so many bathrooms was so nice. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would go back! Glen Falls is only 25 minutes away, and worth the drive/hike!

Great Property For a Relaxing Getaway!

We had a great time at Jewel Of The Woods. The home was clean, comfy and a short drive to the Highlands. The owner has the property stocked with pretty much everything you could ever need, which was fantastic. We will definitely stay again on our next trip to the area!

Great cabin rental

This cabin was beautiful. The views were amazing! The cabin was super clean and very well stocked. One of the best rental properties we've stayed at in a long time. Lots of room for families. The host and property manager were so great. Very quick to respond. We really enjoyed our stay.

Wonderful Stay - Loved the Porch & View

My family and parents had a wonderful stay at Jewel of the Woods. We spent most of our time just visiting and relaxing on the peaceful deck. The mountain air and views was refreshing. The home is clean, very spacious, and had everything we needed.

The cabin was excellent. Matches the pictures if not better. Cabin is in very good shape with lots of extras including those blueberry bushes which the entire group enjoyed.Road into area is windy and gravel for quite a stretch but a Toyota Camry had no issues.Do understand that cell phone coverage isn't just spotty at the cabin but starts 15-20 minutes out but honestly isn't an issue once you get wifi on-site. Wifi was weak at times but once again not a showstopper.

Highlands Wedding Weekend Retreat

Well pleased with overall condition of property. House is very spacious and has an excellent open floorplan to promote group gathering on main floor, yet provides privacy for individuals/couples on the second and lower floors. If "life in the country" is what you want, the "Jewel of the Woods" will not disappoint.

Supper clean and every detail was thought of!

Just beautiful and relaxing. Fall leaves just beginning to turn. But would be beautiful in any season. Spectacular views. The deck looking at sunset was amazing! Fire pit gave it the perfect ambience. And the beds were great. Looking forward to another trip soon.
