About this property

"Dolly Lodge" - Private 2.5 Acres /Mid-Century Architecture

Sophisticated and charming, this architecturally inspired mid-century home offers an open floor plan with over 2,000 square feet of living space and all wood finishes. Beautiful soaring ceilings and fresh designer elements. This one level modern lodge with a step-down living room is sited on a private lot near Mirror Lake, within a 5 minute drive to everything downtown Highlands has to offer. Newly furnished, the home offers AC, Wi-Fi, Flat screen TVs, Fire Pit and a six person Hot Tub. There are 2 fireplaces – one in the living room and one in the dining area, hardwood floors and special touches throughout. Escape to this inviting mountain retreat to relax and recharge in nature and privacy.

Outside, there is a hot tub, stone terrace with fire pit and multiple Adirondack chairs – perfectly lit with cafe lights for romance and for making s'mores. Plus, a screened porch sitting area and connected wrap around dining/party deck with a Weber Gas Grill and umbrella-covered table and chairs. The home is on a private and serene lot surrounded by beautiful N.C. hardwood trees and a trail around the house. Level entry to porches from the house, only 2 steps to main entry from the driveway and covered parking area, and only 5 steps off the rear decks to the outdoor amenities for making memorable nights by a roaring fire.

Inside: 3 spacious bedrooms and 3.5 baths: 2 king bedrooms and the third bedroom with 2 queens... all with large closets. The fully equipped kitchen has everything like home: Keurig coffee maker, waffle maker, toaster oven, blender, pots and pans, mixer, olive oil, spices and more! Enjoy the utility of the kitchen island and separate wet bar and wine/beverage cooler. Laundry room with a large side by side washer/dryer! Office area for catching up on emails or planning your Highlands adventures.

Great location off Billy Cabin Road and near Half-Mile Farm by Old Edwards, less than 5 minutes to town, grocery, award-winning restaurants, Old Edwards Inn, the Wine Shoppe, and amazing boutique shopping! Walk down the hill to Mirror Lake or Apple Lake where you can walk around the lake communities... lovely any time of year! And there is nothing like hiking to the local waterfalls and the mountain parks. Enjoy a toast on Sunset Rock or Glen Falls just minutes away!

Escape the Summer heat and come relax with family or friends above 4000 ft. in elevation or enjoy a roaring file in winter when it snows! Hearing the rain on the metal porch roof is a special treat. Dolly Lodge is your perfect vacation get-away.

About the host

Hosted by Phil & Holly

Host profile image
We live in Atlanta and enjoy travelling to Highlands all year long.

Why they chose this property

We just loved the mid-century architecture and the privacy of the one acre lot. We own the private one acre undeveloped lot next door as well - adding yet another layer of privacy and seclusion.

What makes this property unique

The location was one of the key reasons we bought Dolly Lodge. We can walk to our canoe at Mirror Lake and drive to town in five minutes for groceries and enjoy the restaurants, shopping and wine bars : )
