Exactly what I wanted in Highlands, NC. Great price. Dog friendly. 2 bedrooms. Wood burning (or gas starter) fireplace. Great WI-FI. Garrard was quick to reply to my questions and had locals to help with anything we needed. Very nice upstairs bedroom & bathroom. Very clean. The den is narrow, but 2 sofas and chairs were very comfortable. We had no trouble parking; we were the only people in this group of 5 homes. The deck would have been very nice to enjoy, (You can hear the nearby creek), but the weather was cold while we were there. An easy eight minute drive into downtown Highlands or a little further to Cashiers. Grateful for a very affordable long weekend in this beautiful area and for a very accommodating host.

This house is adorable & Garrard was a great host! There was a slight parking issue (no fault of the host), and he made sure to contact me and have someone waiting to guide us to where we needed to parkIt was the perfect cozy place for a girl's weekend with my best friend and the house is close to all the shops & restaurants in Highlands as well as the wonderful waterfall trails

Lovely mountain home. We so enjoyed the hot tub.., very clean. The beds were all comfy, and the updated kitchen was spacious. Lightning could use improvements in all rooms. We were very pleased with the close proximity to activities we were interested in.

Location is close enough to downtown Highlands but feels like you’re further on the mountain. Place was clean but could use a few updated small kitchen appliances. The deck is large & relaxing as you can hear a nearby brook.Living room area very narrow. Tight parking area.

Tree House Deck

Minutes from town, close to Chashier, access to multiple hiking paths with gorgeous views. The house is simple but clean and comfortable. Large deck wraps around half of house and you feel like you are in a tree house. Enjoyed end of day soak in the hot tub.

Everything we needed for a long weekend!

We enjoyed our stay at this property. It’s not a far drive from town and was convenient to my son who only lives a mile down the road. Had a little confusion on check out time since VRBO had two different times and refrigerator had conflicting info as well. The owner was super nice and understanding, but make sure you confirm if unsure. The property is a little quirky, and smaller living room area may not have worked for a longer stay, but very clean and kitchen was fully stocked to have a nice family meal together.

Nice place that we booked for 4 nights and were only able to stay night 1 due to emergency and had to head home. contacted owner if partial refund was possible. No reply. So it was an expensive one night stay but will definitely book again when we re-visit

Great Highlands VRBO!

We enjoyed our stay at Garrard's property in Highlands. The location was excellent. We loved the porch overlooking the woods; unfortunately we didn't have lots of time to spend there. The house could use a little refurbishing, but it had everything we needed!
