The house was beautifully decorated and the best supplied house we have ever rented. The location was close to downtown Highlands yet remote enough to feel cozy and private. Joanne and Mike were very responsive to our needs. Great place!

Great place. Probably the nicest place we have stayed at in the Highlands area. Town, waterfalls and hiking was close. Kitchen and grill was great. The back deck is quiet and peaceful. I highly recommend.

My husband and I wanted to see waterfalls and the home was the perfect location. We loved sitting on the deck. It does feel like you are sitting above the trees. The owners, Joann and Mike, were very sweet and the house was well stocked. We had a wonderful time.

This was a wonderful cabin for our 4 day stay in the mountains. We had everything that we needed and felt like we were home with all of the comforts! The neighborhood was perfect for walking our dogs and we were close to everything. It was beautifully furnished, comfortable beds, and the kitchen was well equipped. We will definitely choose this cabin when we visit again!
