About this property

The Kind of Place You Stop Rushing the Moment You Arrive | Bungalow on Crowe

This Rent In Highlands vacation rental home has a strict NO PET policy. Failure to adhere to this policy will result in a $1000.00 fine.

Only adults (25 years old and older) may reserve this property and an adult must occupy the property at all times.

There's a particular feeling that hits when a vacation rental gets everything right — the light, the layout, the porch that makes you cancel your dinner reservation and just stay in. Bungalow on Crowe has that feeling from the first step through the door.

Peaceful views. An open, airy floor plan. A massive covered deck with a tin roof overhead and the sound of the trees doing all the talking. Stylish without trying too hard, comfortable without sacrificing a thing. This is the one you've been scrolling past everything else to find.

Sleep, Eat, Repeat. Two king bedrooms on the main level — both dressed in plush linens, both designed for the kind of sleep that makes you forget what day it is. The open kitchen and dining area flow naturally into the living space, so meals feel less like a production and more like everyone just ended up in the same room at the right time. The décor throughout is fresh and considered, the kind of update that makes a space feel current without losing its warmth.

Downstairs, Things Get Fun -The lower level earns its keep. A media and game room anchored by a 65-inch TV makes movie nights a genuine event, and an electric fireplace keeps the atmosphere exactly right when the mountain air turns cool. The full bathroom down here features a cast-iron clawfoot tub — charming, unexpected, and the kind of detail that gets mentioned every time someone describes this place to a friend.

The Deck is the Real Living Room - Step out from the main level onto the covered porch and the trip officially begins. A tin roof overhead, a lounge area for sinking in, a dining table set for six for meals that stretch well past dessert — this deck handles mornings, afternoons, and evenings with equal ease. Out front, a wide open yard gives kids room to actually run, and as the sun starts to drop, the firepit becomes the natural gathering point for whoever's left standing.

Two spaces. One fire. No agenda. That's the Bungalow on Crowe formula, and it works every time.

Close to Everything, Far From the Noise Downtown Highlands is just minutes away — restaurants worth the drive, shops worth browsing, trails and waterfalls worth the effort. But between the deck, the clawfoot tub, the firepit, and the game room, you may find your group remarkably reluctant to leave the property at all.

That's not a bad problem to have.

NOTICE: The garage is for owner's use only.  There is no grill at this home.

What our guests are saying…

"Great property tucked away from main road. Leaves were popping with color and the house was great Great place to hang out with another couple. Two king beds each with their own bath. Beds were comfortable. Large covered porch with ample seating looking into a large open area. Back yard was fenced with a fire pit set up. Living room was great for catching up with two opposing couches. Kitchen was well appointed with new SS appliances and beautiful hickory cabinets. It was well done rehab and now is a diamond." - Rent In Highlands Vacation Rental Guest, Doug

Overall Great Place to Rent

Only a 4 star because there was TV issues the entire NYE weekend, however it was no fault of the owner and he and the property manager did everything they could to try and fix. Very helpful and friendly. Overall, the place was beautiful.
Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2022
Response from VrboOwner on 1 Feb 2023
Thanks for the review Gavin. We're so sorry about the TV issues. We had it serviced today and it turned out to be a connector on the outside of the house that was damaged due to lots of rain and extremely cold temperatures. We appreciate your understanding.

Great Getaway Cottage

This is a great getaway cottage for a family, couple or possibly two couples. Close proximity to Highlands and Cashiers as well as lots of trails and waterfalls. The house is well appointed and the outdoor spaces are amazing. Our only complaint would be to upgrade the bed in the master. The house is so comfortable, but the master bed is the worst.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay and are sorry that you found the bed in the master bedroom uncomfortable.

Perfect for a family of 4! Didn’t want to leave.

Bungalow on Crowe was our very first VRBO experience and it was wonderful!! Super clean, comfy beds, I enjoyed my coffee on the wonderfully large porch every morning looking at the leaves and watching my kids play in the beautiful yard. The only problem was that we arrived at 11 PM in the dark and cold and didn’t realize the key pad lock was on the second (inside) door from the outside so took a while to find but would have been easier during daylight hours. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and were sad to leave. We will be back!!
