About this property

Chic Cottage 1.4 miles to downtown

Minutes to Main Street Highlands - The "postcard" downtown that offers plenty of art galleries, antique stores, and upscale boutiques. This updated 3-bedroom cottage with French dĂŠcor is perfect for a girls' weekend, a romantic getaway, or a family vacation.

The screened porch is complete with a wood-burning fireplace, comfortable seating, and a large TV. Sip your morning coffee on the covered patio or end your day with your favorite pour in hand. This is the perfect place to unplug and unwind!

The living room offers a fireplace, a cozy wrap-around sofa, and beautiful windows to observe nature. The well-stocked kitchen includes stainless steel appliances and rustic farmhouse charm. We just added a sectional couch that is perfect for kids if you need more sleeping space as it will accommodate 2 extra people.

Escape for the night to three spacious bedrooms. The primary room features a king-sized bed, and the two guest rooms each have queen beds.

Why is Highlands NC so popular in the summertime? For over a century, people have flocked to Highlands to escape the summer heat in other parts of the country. Highlands' elevation at over 4,118 feet and its location in one of America's few temperate rainforests means cooler than average temperatures. The average summer temperature is 76 degrees.

Great location close to town, very comfy master bedroom. Loved the porch. The only negative I can give "if any" would be that the home is close to the main road so there is road noise until about 8:00 PM... other than that, we really enjoyed our stay.

Highlands Weekend

We went to visit the Highlands area to do a little “leaf peeping.” This house was perfect for two couples! Everything was super clean. The owners were fantastic and responded quickly when we couldn’t figure out how to “work” the fireplace and TV. Location was very convenient.

Memorial Day weekend

My daughters and I love the mountains so we decided to book a place where we could gather and bring our dogs (poodles). We were pleased the house was clean without dog hair as well as the yard (without poo). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and everyone was comfortable with the beds and the fire porch was excellent! Great location close to Highlands just in case you forget something at the store!

Comfortable, clean & cozy home for Christmas

Carl and Tami were wonderful to work with from the very beginning. Their house is absolutely adorable and felt like home to us. The split floor plan was perfect, so we didn’t hear my daddy snore! It was tastefully decorated for Christmas. Which was one major reason we picked this property. The other reason was the wood burning fireplace outside. It was unreasonably cold while we were there. (-25 wind chill) So the fire made our smoke breaks almost bearable! The pups loved exploring outside. Had to keep them leashed since there wasn’t a fence, but they didn’t wanna stay out that long due to temps anyways! Pictures don’t do the living room justice. The tv is plenty big and on its own wall. Gas fireplace on the other. And the beautiful windows on the other. No matter which way we looked, we had terrific view. If in the Highlands again, we would definitely book this home again.

Nicely furnished and clean cabin

The cabin was nicely furnished and very clean. I loved the porch, but unfortunately it was quite cold while we were there and we did not have an opportunity to use it. Our only problem was with the living room fireplace. We were able to start it one time by following the owner’s instructions to start with the box inside the fireplace. After that one time we could not get it to work. Thanks for a nice stay.

Comfortable, cozy, classy and clean. Very close proximity to restaurants, shopping, etc in Highlands. Home had comfortable furnishings and beds and all amenities. Nice screened deck with fireplace was special on cool fall evenings although a little traffic noise was noticeable but proximity to downtown made it a good choice.for us.
