Newly remodeled with unbelievable view off two story deck, minutes from downtown Reviews

This home provided us with an enjoyable stay in Highlands. We loved the great room but it needs more lighting, especially during seasons with shorter daylight hours. Beds were comfortable. The owners were great communicators. Has some difficulty with the main door but we managed.

Older, well kept property with great views. Fast wi-fi, comfortable bed, great porch. Easy communication with ownership. Would stay again.

Thank you for sharing your home! It was lovely, conveniently located, and exactly what our family needed. We loved the 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.

Would totally stay here again!

Had a great time! Cozy place with a view!!

We stayed for 4 nights at this lovely home over the holiday this year. It has a great location and tons of room- pictures don't do it justice! The home had everything we needed to eat in a few nights of our stay, and a few of the extras (like firewood :) to make it special. The home has definitely been 'well loved' for awhile, so if you're looking for brand new & modern, this isn't for you. But... if you're looking for a nice, clean, comfortable home with lots of character, lots of room and a great location - it's perfect! The views of sunrise were absolutely spectacular. The hosts of the property, Michael & Lee, were a pleasure to deal with. They were flexible with our friends when a couple arrived earlier than expected and understanding and responsive when we had a few hiccups during our stay. We would definitely stay here again.

Very clean, large rooms, great views

I did quite a bit of research before choosing this house for our stay. I live in an historic home and own a lake recreational home. This place was likely built some 50 years ago so it has been updated from time to time. If you must have brand new everything this might not be for you. For us it was just what we wanted. Great view from the back deck. Beautiful great room. Easy to get in and out as the parking is level with the rear of the house. Cool sleeping porch. And the owners leave certain spices, etc.. in the kitchen cabinet so you have to buy EVERYTHING. Very close to town. Once you get use to the narrow road that takes you up to the house its a piece of cake. Had an issue with the WiFi when we first got there but just required us to plug in the router which Im guessing the house cleaners accidently unplugged. Lee was very friendly and responsive about that. Overall its a great place and I would stay there again.

Minnie blessings had everything we needed and it was really close to the wedding location which was off of Arnold

Basically, a decent home to stay in but we were puzzled by the high ratings. It's an older house that is aged and worn and not maintained well for rentals. There were 5 of us ladies celebrating a birthday. Three of us have our own rentals, so we have basic expectations for rentals in this price range. The entrance was hard to find because the Minnie Blessing signage featured in the VRBO photo had fallen off and the house number was not visible. We found the sign propped up by the front door. We arrived at around 5 p.m. in rain and the numbers were not easy to see. Just gray metal numbers against wood. I missed the drive upon arrival. The view was very nice but not expansive. The listing shows four rocking chairs on the deck but there were only two. The listing states "newly renovated", but that seemed a bit misleading. The kitchen had some new appliances, but the cabinetry appeared to be original with doors and drawers showing their age. The master bath was probably renovated as well as additional new toilets. The master suite was lovely, as well as the sleeping porch, but the other beds and baths had issues. There wasn't enough light - there were lamps with bare bulbs and broken lampshades. We had to move functioning lamps to wherever we needed them. There were no mattress pads or pillow protectors on 3 of the 4 beds we used. We discovered the pillows were stained with sweat when we stripped the beds. The comforters on the bed were very well worn. There were half-used rolls of toilet paper left on the dispensers and baskets in the bathrooms, which is not sanitary, especially during COVID. The towels were old, worn, dingy, and damp to touch. There was no soap, just two things of hand soap. We could only find six washcloths. The towel bar in one of the lower bathrooms was ripped off the wall and missing. The coffee pot needs to be replaced. It only made 4 cups and left the remaining six cups of water in the reservoir. Garage door opener did not appear to work. There were no directions on how to use the TV or what the five remotes on the coffee table were supposed to operate. The basement was very musty despite the large dehumidifier. The odor was very strong. Our first morning the lawn company started blowing leaves at 8:45 am. Then the pest control company showed up at 10 am. We did not let them inside the home. There had been no heads up from the owners.
