Difficult to find in the dark! Better signage and reflectors would help a lot. Surprised we were asked to remove linens and place in laundry room at 570 a night rate The dryer was out of service. The view is very nice and the multiple bed rooms would be great for a family.The pumpkin bread left by the owner was spectacular.

Everything was perfect. Magnificent balcony and view. Our hosts were wonderful. There was not much of a kitchen and fridge, but it met our needs and was well equipped. Home was beautiful and in perfect condition. Should be noted there are some semi steep stairs to property that might be difficult with children and older adults. Highly recommend.

Four Seasons fulfilled all that we were attracted to! It is a hidden gem. All amenities met our needs. Our hosts were congenial and always willing to be helpful without intruding on our enjoyment. We arrived from oppressive heat in our FL home to gentle cool fresh air and majestic vistas. It was like being in a tree house with a grand deck complete with hammock. We will be back! We loved their suggestion to dine at "On The Verandah". Superb!

Great Place

Great location for a short drive to town. The house was decorated beautifully with great detail. You truly feel welcomed when you open the door. The large deck was great as well as the view. One thing I noticed in particular, on the back deck is super quiet and peaceful. The king sized bed was super comfortable, but to be honest I would sleep outside for another loaf of that homemade pumpkin bread. What a wonderful relaxing place!

Excellent house close to downtown Highlands and short drive to Cashiers. Close to many great hiking trails. Very peaceful and quiet place. Perhaps I missed this, but does not have a full kitchen. Outside of that was perfect and spacious.

Wonderful property, fabulous host

We stayed for four nights with our two young children. The property was clean, comfortable and so relaxing. There were lots of games at the house to which we enjoyed playing in the mornings and evenings on the porch. It was so nice to have the option to use the old Edwards club. Cathy was the most wonderful host you could ask for and was super responsive and accommodating to all our questions and requests (and she was out of the country!) We highly recommend staying here!

Short weekend trip

Our group consisted of myself and two 17 year olds. The place was perfect for our needs. It was beautiful, well decorated, very comfortable and had a great porch. The hosts were very nice and quick to reply to our questions. She even had beverages waiting for us upon arrival and set umbrellas out for us as it rained the whole weekend. We will definitely return. We would like to spend more time there. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous place!

Wonderful Mountain Getaway

This place is charming, comfortable, and exceeded our expectations from the listing! And that's not the best part... Jim and Cathy were warm, inviting and super accommodating. They were helpful in setting up reservations, suggestions and were available throughout our stay while being very respectful of our privacy. It was like having a concierge at one of the nicest resorts! Cathy welcomed us with homemade bread that was delicious. Meeting them was an added bonus to our stay. We will definitely be back!

Mountains, Golf, Christmas Tree, Waterfalls

Had an amazing time with the family on our trip to get a Christmas tree. Played golf at Old Edwards on my birthday, which is an incredible country club. 5 stars. It’s a private club that the owners can provide you access. Toys everywhere for my 3 yr old. Cribs and a high chair for our baby. Antiques and artwork everywhere. Nothing from ikea in this cozy place. All the small details are first class. Comfy bed, great view. Cathy bakes you a fresh loaf of pumpkin bread that is unreal. She is very responsive with all request. Incredible rental, so cozy, so perfect!
