Highlands house

Lovely home in excellent location! We walked to town often and also hiked the greenway trails right down the lane. We especially enjoyed the spacious and comfortable porch.

Love the porch!

Had a quick get away, and loved this property. We were able to walk into town during the day, but the walk is way too steep, dark for evening! Overall…we’d stay here again for sure! Loved the cooler temperature!

Hidden gem

This adorable cottage was super clean and comfortable. Off the beaten path and yet an easy walk to down town. We especially loved the porch——sitting there with coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening. We definitely would go back.

Lovely home!

Our stay at this home was absolutely perfect! The house was incredibly comfortable and we felt right at home from the moment we arrived. The cozy atmosphere, combined with all the thoughtful amenities, ensured we had everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The location was ideal, just a short walk to Main Street, where we could easily explore all the charming shops and restaurants. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay during our mountain getaway. Highly recommend this lovely home for anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient retreat!

Wouldn’t change a thing about the Cozy Cottage

We visited the Cozy Cottage for fall break with our children. It was the perfect sized cottage for our family of 4. It had so much charm and was extremely clean. The location could not have been better. It was about a 7 minute walk to downtown and 2 minute walk to the Higlhands Greenway for a beautiful hike that lead to the Rec center and playground. We can’t wait to return to this slice of heaven!

Wonderful Cottage

What a charming place to escape to. It was great to be able to walk to the heart of Highlands in minutes and yet, when you returned, you felt like you were miles away. The cottage is very private, quiet road, and surrounded by trees and rhododendrons. The covered porch was ground central for reading, relaxing, and dining. I definitely would recommend this cottage to anyone and will reserve it again for myself.

Our Second stay in Cozy Cottage

We returned to this cottage for our second stay one year later and loved it once again. Everything you need is here . Great for a couple or a small family. Great deck for lazy coffee mornings or an afternoon nap under the fan. Convenience to Main Street for easy walks to dinner and shopping . Close to the Bryans grocery for those last minute needs. The cottage is spotlessly clean!with a nice flat screen tv and fast internet and sufficient off street parking for two cars .

Great mountain cottage!

This cottage was great in so many ways! The location was excellent - so convenient to downtown - and we could tell a lot of thought and effort went into decorating the house and ensuring it was stocked with all the supplies we needed. The furniture was very comfortable, as was the master bed and pillows (we did not use the twin beds in second BR), the back porch was large and also furnished nicely, the vegetation and all the trees surrounding the cottage made us feel as thought we were living in a treehouse. Both the cottage, and the communication with the owner, exceeded our expectations and we will certainly return.

Wonderful Stay

The pictures do not do this cottage justice. It is so cozy and charming. My husband and I stayed here for a week with our 2 kids (5 and 9) and we had a wonderful time. It is very comfortable and the set up is perfect for us with our 2 kids - they loved their own room with the twin beds. The house is stocked with everything we needed, the fireplace was relaxing and cozy in the evenings, and the location is amazing! Lovely 5-10 minute walk to Main Street. I walked to town every morning for coffee. The hosts were very responsive and were flexible on the check-in/check-out which was super helpful with our flights. We can't wait to go back and would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Cottage for a Highlands Get-a-Way

We make an annual trip to Highlands and this is our favorite tucked away quaint cottage of all. The location is 15 minute walkable to all of the main street activities, restaurants and conveniences. The cottage was thoughtfully and tastefully appointed with everything we needed..and surrounded with the privacy of the of the rhododendron and lovely landscaping and off street parking. A key feature is the fantastic covered private deck which became a favorite for morning coffee , reading and a snooze. Comfy two bedrooms... a cozy master double w in-suite shower and twin second with immediate access shower/tub. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything needed to prep meals and top notch appliances. Great Living room comfort with a large screen TV and good wifi....we felt so at home and comfortable that we shall return!! Natalie quickly responds with any questions along the way!
