Absolutely Charming! We stay at many VRBOs and this was by far, one of the most charming. It was so welcoming AND clean. Every essential detail was taken care of as far as comfort and needed items. We feel very fortunate to have located this home and we would definitely reserve this property again.

Cozy mountain getaway. What a blessing! We absolutely loved the long weekend we spent at the Sweetwood Cottage and cant wait to go back. The cottage was VERY comfortable and extremely well stocked, we wouldnt change a thing. We will definitely try to return when the weather is a little warmer to enjoy the beautiful setting and front porch.

This property was the biggest blessing to our family! The kitchen is perfectly stocked. The bedrooms are comfortable with just the right amount of privacy yet still having the capability of feeling connected to family. The fireplace is amazing. The front porch is the perfect escape for reading a book on a lazy afternoon. The views are so green year round, with a pond with geese in walking distance. Downtown Highlands is within walking distance to all the shops and cafes. We truly dont want to leave the property to explore the area because the cabin is extremely warm and cozy. The decor is an eclectic French country with fine linens and towels. We WILL be back!
