Gorgeous views
We really enjoyed staying at this beautiful, well decorated home. The views were beyond stunning, especially in the morning and evening. My kids loved playing on the dock and even went for a paddle, brrr! It's so very spacious with tons of seating. It was really too big for our family of five, we didn't even use the smaller cottage. The views from the dining area were breathtaking. We really enjoyed the fire pit as well. We would definitely stay again!

Highlands Getaway
I had a large group of friends split between two houses. We had the best time in the cabin. Rooms are perfect, the living area was great for all of us to watch a movie. Kitchen area was excellent. Our favorite was the fire pit and dock. We sat and enjoyed a fire listened to 70's music it was great. The cabin is clean, and easy to get to. Getting into Highlands is simple and fast. We hope to return next year.

Wonderful overall; safety issue (staircase railing)
Overall we loved the place. In particular, being truly right on the lake, with deck, dock, kayaks, boards well placed. The fire pit and big den were appreciated. Disappointing issues: staircase railing was unstable and grandma nearly tumbled down the stairs as a result. A cable tie was in place but maybe only compounded the problem: was it meant to hold the rail in place to its mount (it didnt), or just act as a flag (it didnt)? please fix and consider adjusting the charges. The master BR (ground floor) was musty, maybe thats why it had multiple fans. Moved the rug out (sorry we forget to replace it) but no better. ALso would have appreciated an explicit heads-up that the property is on a busy road/hwy. Kitchen needs bigger pots/pans, baking dishes, cookie sheets, rubber spatula. We are trying to be constructive here and if needed we could edit this before it goes public. thank you!

Beautiful View
We nicknamed the trip “the boat trip without the boat”. The water view is amazing and we spent time outside everyday! Highlands is a charming town and great for hiking. We would visit the Highlands again!

4th in Highlands
4 adults, 3 teens, 1 golden retriever made full use of this property on the lake. House and adjoining cabin for the teens was great. Lake is beautiful, used the kayaks and SUPs. Close to downtown and hikes. Only negative is that it is right on a busy road so you cannot walk anywhere from the property and must be hyper alert that all gates are locked so dog does not get out. We really did enjoy our stay!

Family get away with teens
Main house was very clean needs a few repairs of cabinets and master shower leak. Bunk house was not clean at all dog hair and a vape on the floor. Loved the location and space and time on a peaceful lake with fishing and kayaking. Would definitely come back again.

Lovely cabin on the water
The home was lovely and clean. It was on the water and had boats and poles that made for a fun experience. There could have been some additional supplies and the railing needs to be fixed, but otherwise the location was excellent and we had a great time.

Great house and location. This house was perfect for a family. The space to spread out and also gather was very nice. Updates to the kitchen and bathrooms were great. Waking up and walking a few steps to the lake and dock were amazing. We had a blast.

Wonderful getaway with family
Despite some weather related plumbing problems (that were dealt with as soon as they could be), it was a wonderful getaway. My husband and I along with our dog and one adult son stayed in the big house. My sister and her husband and 17 year old son stayed in the bunkhouse. A great way to have time together yet space apart. Everything you need for your stay was there. A great location and property. We look forward to hopefully visiting there again this summer. The owner was great about communicating and I also look forward to working with him again.

Exceptional property with amazing ambience.
This property is perfect for a large group. We were 8 women, family and friends, ages 24 to 75 yrs old. Sufficient beds and baths (the separate bunk house was a bonus ) in large kitchen and plenty of sufficient seating for dining. The property owner left easy instructions and was a very good communicator. The plentiful. parking was exceptional for a Highlands property. The proximity to town was very convenient . I would like to rent this property again in wa to take advantage of the fire pit and canoes.

Highlands Mountain getaway
This property was absolutely perfect for our group. Kitchen was big, bedrooms were awesome. Porch and Deck were our hangout spot. We fished, kayaked, hiked, fished and a couple of us crazies actually got in the cold water, it was amazing. Sat around the firepit every night and spent Saturday watching football on the porch. All ready there is talked of wanting to rebook in the spring. Hope it's available.

Great house for groups!
We had 6 adults with our children and had plenty of space to play. The house itself is an “activity” with an outdoor TV, dock for fishing, fire pit etc. The dining room overlooks the water and the second house is extremely helpful for groups. So close to downtown. We loved it.
