What our guests are saying…
"Great Stay! The house is beautiful and the pictures don't do it justice. We enjoyed the back porch quite a bit and opened the windows at night to hear the rushing water. As soon as we got there and sat down on the porch, my husband was ready to plan our next stay. The house is located very close to the downtown area and a local grocery store. We cant wait to go back!" - Rent In Highlands Vacation Rental Guest, Nicky

We had an awesome stay! This home is extremely clean and comfortable to stay for any length of time. Very well appointed and very relaxing. We loved our stay here!
What a terrific place. This would be perfect for 2 couples (but it was awesome for me and my mom to enjoy our own gorgeous space!) Each bedroom has very comfy king beds (one of them is pretty tall). The bathrooms are gorgeous, the kitchen is wonderful, with plenty of good knives (super important to me, because I like to cook.)The owner has thought of everything. There are ceiling fans throughout the house, it’s close to Bryson’s grocery store and close to Main Street. The WiFi works great, the privacy is lovely…and I love listening to the creek out back. My mom and I spent almost the entire trip sitting on the back porch talking and reading. Even when it’s pouring rain, the porch is the best spot. Thank you, THANK YOU …. We will be back!
We really enjoyed our stay from top to bottom. Communication from Alicen was great and the house was exactly as advertised. We loved how quiet the street was and how close the property was to downtown Highlands. We will definitely rent again.
Easy and a beautiful stay they thought of everything. Home was well appointed and close lovely neighborhood. We’ve stY here several times now and plan to come again. Lots of fun

nicely done!!
the property manager is great! maid is excellent! very clean,very ,very well decorated and renovated! Have stayed in a lot of Highlands places and this one is at the top.
We loved staying at this property. The home is well-appointed and its close proximity to downtown is incredibly convenient. Visiting during summer, the back porch is the place to relax with the restful sound of the creek in the backyard. I have a high standard for cleanliness and this home was extremely clean which I appreciate. Next time we will book a longer visit!
Came up for the weekend to enjoy the snow with our 5yr old. This home was fully equipped with everything. It was clean and very well maintained. Perfectly located to everything and very nice neighbors. Property Manager was responsive and we plan to book this property again!
Great location! Close, easy drive to downtown or the Bascom Center. Clean and appears to be newly renovated. LOVED that it had a Keurig coffee maker! So many homes I have stayed in do not. Perfect size for our girls weekend with 4 friends
This two bedroom house was a great find. Clean and well decorated inside. Both bedrooms had ensuite access to a bathroom. The back deck was perfect for enjoying coffee and breakfast in the morning and wine & cheese in the evening. Very short, 3 minute drive to the heart of Highlands.

Great house!
This beautiful, clean home has everything you could want! Every necessity we looked for was there, and more. The back porch is fabulous, with the sound of the stream and all the birds singing. The beds are comfortable, the towels luxurious, the kitchen well stocked and all items were lovely. The house is decorated very attractively, and the neighborhood is serene and beautiful. Absolutely loved our stay here!
We had an excellent experience at this property and with Rent in Highlands. Communication was great and they were very responsive when we had questions. The digital guest book was also very convenient. The house itself was perfect for 2 couples with plenty of room to relax and visit. The bathrooms were nicely renovated. The porch and fire pit area were great places to take in the surroundings and listen to the creek flowing in the woods. Will look to rent through them again the next time we go to Highlands!

Great location and the place was very nice
We really enjoyed our time there and the accommodations were just as expected. One thing to be aware of is the need to take the trash to the dumpster yourself. Maybe I didn't read the original writing but that was a bit of a surprise. Overall we greatly enjoyed the house and would rent it again if we were in the area.
If you are not used to the area you will be traveling up a very steep and curvy single lane road up to Highlands. This is the same for any property in the area.

A Wonderful Experience
This was our first trip to Highlands and it was one of the best vacations ever. The cottage is so charming and comfortable. The weather was great with highs in the mid 70's and lows at night in the low 60's; and during July. It can't get better than that. The cottage had everything and was so nicely appointed. Sitting on the back porch and listening to the rain or the water in the creek made it the most pleasurable of experiences. Everything was so peaceful and quite, but still only a quick drive to downtown. Would recommend this to anyone and plan to go back again and again if at all possible. Found both the cottage and Highlands to be an experience not to be missed.
The location of this little house was perfect. Close to town. It was clean and had everything one could need. The neighborhood was beautiful. I’d stay again.
