Absolutely perfect!
Sweetwood Cottage had everything we could have possibly wanted for a long weekend stay with family. The location was perfect, set in a neighborhood but just a short walk from town. The front porch was perfect for early morning coffee and late night chats. The cottage is comfy with all needed amenities provided. Highly recommend!

Wedding in Highlands
We had a family wedding to attend and wanted to be close to town and other family members but far enough away to have our privacy. The home was perfect, spacious and comfortable. Great location and so quiet!

Superior Choice!
It was excellent. The home was beautifully decorated and very adequately accommodated 4 80 year old women! We were so pleased that all bedrooms and bathrooms were on the same level. Nothing could have been better suited for our group of friends.

Beautiful property
This home is a unique and historic property that has been beautifully maintained. It is charming and has several outdoor areas to enjoy the waterfall and running water. Many sleeping areas for a large group and 2 living areas. The house is 3 levels, with narrow stairwells which could be an issue for the elderly or toddlers. It is a short drive to town and the beautiful Dry Falls are just a few miles away as well. We would highly recommend this property if visiting the Highlands!

Beautiful Comfortable House, Inside and Out
Our extended family of 5 adults and 6 kids/teens had a wonderful time staying at Shortoff Mountain View. The house was so nice inside and out, thoughtfully and comfortably appointed and decorated. I would definitely stay there again. We absolutely loved exploring the property, finding the Spirit Tree and feeding the fish. It was the perfect place in every way to make memories as a family. It was also really nice being so close to Highlands.

Wonderful home and location!
We loved our stay at Little Bear Pen! The home is so beautiful and charming and the screened in back porch is a dream! We stayed in the late winter/early spring so the view was even better than the pictures show. If I could take that porch home with me and put it on my house, I would! The home was clean, well kept and nicely decorated and the amount of space was perfect for our group of 4 adults and 3 kids. It was a 3-4 minute drive to downtown which was ideal and there is even a walking trail from the neighborhood to downtown which was really nice. It was about a 20-25 minute easy hike from the house to Main Street, which was great for the kids. We parked a car downtown so we wouldn’t have to hike back up with our tired 3 year old but I’m sure the hike back up would have been great too! Our only real issue was the dishwasher pods that were left for us to use caused the dishwasher to overflow with suds. We bought some cascade pods to use instead and those worked just fine. The rental agency is aware of the issue with the pods, though, and they are working to fix it. Overall, we loved our stay at Little Bear Pen and would definitely stay here again!

Peaceful Weekend Getaway
Three old college friends enjoyed being together at Laurelwood for a weekend reunion. We were able to relax and reminisce in comfort, and enjoy the beauty of the mountains at the same time. The house met our needs; each of us had our own room with a comfortable bed; there were three baths, and a well-stocked kitchen so we could eat in as we chose and also enjoy the dining opportunities of Highlands for dinner. It all ended too soon.

Great location
We loved the house and location for a vacation with our adult children. The house is well appointed and lives up to the listing. The only issue we had was the doors not locking upstairs, but we didn’t have any kids so it wasn’t a big deal. Communication with rental company was great. They were very helpful.

LOVED this home!
Everything about it was perfect— it’s clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated, and the layout is perfect to be together, yet have space to spread out! Loved that it’s within walking distance of downtown. Would highly recommend and hope to be back!

Comfortable
Always a pleasure to stay in this cottage by the lake. This is a home you can enjoy for its “feel” and comfort. Spectacular location across from a lake and only a block walk into town. Many thanks to Highland Rentals for their professional service and of course to the owners of this home for letting us enjoy it year after year.

The house was very comfortable. We had EVERYTHING we could have possibly needed or wanted. The house is beautiful. Every bedroom was comfy and quiet. The views are amazing. Our stay was a short one but we would love to stay here again and enjoy the deck, grill and outdoor fireplace.

This house was the perfect spot for our weekend getaway. For a group of 6, it was so ideal for each bedroom to have its own bathroom with a large enough living and dining room for us to all spend time together. We loved it!
