Bubbly was such a special cottage for our vacation. The bedrooms were neat and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and the den was so relaxing to look out of the window and see the babbling brook. It was a perfect get away for my birthday.
Home is in an amazing location, so fun to be able to just walk into town. Home could use some tlc in kitchen and bathroom grout. Communication was quick and helpful. Loved our stay!
This is a great cottage with a quiet backyard including a mountain stream. The cottage was clean and well furnished. Our Host contacted us to verify everything was as expected and provided all access info the day before arrival.I will stay here on my next visit to Highlands
This is a beautiful piece of property. The interior of home is very nicely appointed. We felt we were sitting in our home. Everything was exceptional. Location perfect. Less than a 5 min walk to downtown. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you so much.

Hello! My name is Gabi and I am very passionate about Highlands and all that it has to offer. I have been vacationing there for years and found it to be my true happy place.
Why they chose this property
When I first saw Bubbly Cottage, I immediately fell in love with its location and setting. It is amazing to be so close to town (meaning...high heels to dinner!) while feeling so secluded. Listening to the creek while doing yoga or just napping on the back porch are both magical. I am so excited to share this special place with you!
