About this property
IN TOWN! 2 Blocks From Main Street. 2 Bedrooms/2 Baths. Free WiFi. Sleeps 4.
Park the car and forget about your worries in this recently renovated retreat. With a king bed and full bath on one side of the great room and two twins and a full bath on the other, it's a great space for friends or family.
Only two blocks from Main Street, you can wake up and walk to town for a hot cup of coffee, world class shopping, a day at the spa, ice cream shops, great restaurants, or take a short trip to countless outdoor adventures. Then, return a cozy up with the fireplace and songbirds singing outside your window.
The WiFi will let you stay plugged in, the HD flat screen will let you catch the game, and a front covered porch invite you to enjoy the beautiful climate at 4118 feet above sea level. You can also take a few steps to Harris Lake, where you can feed the ducks and geese (who amazingly ALWAYS seem hungry), or do a little fishing.
If you have a larger family gathering, wedding guests or a big friends' weekend, this house backs up to two other houses of ours with convenient walking paths between: VRBO.com/425273 and VRBO.com/473976

We loved every minute of our stay here! Great location, lovely decor and super cozy. Owner was cordial and very helpful. We wished we could have stayed longer and would like to rent again-Thank you for sharing your mountain home with us!
Charming home in a perfect location. We parked the car upon arrival and were able to walk to all our favorite spots in town. The owners were responsive and helpful when needed. I’d be happy to stay there again. The only thing I would add would be soft seating on the porch.
We had an absolutely amazing stay. The house was very clean and the host was very responsive if we needed anything. It couldn’t have been in a better location either. We drove into town but it was only a few minute walk if we had wanted to walk
We had a great stay! Accommodations are exactly as described. Super close walk to downtown. Comfortable beds. Our toddler enjoyed having plenty of room and yard to move around. Love the fireplace, but definitely recommended using Duraflame logs with the local wood. We will be back next time in Highlands.
Every part of our stay was top-notch, but we especially enjoyed the spacious living area, front porch, well stocked kitchen, and convenient location. Check-in was super-easy.

We were extremely happy with our rental experience. The location is fantastic in relation to Main St and on an extremely quiet road. We basically didn’t have to move the car for the 3 days we were there. The pond with ducks was a great way to relax and entertain young kids. The nature center an easy walk in the other direction, even with a 3 year old. House was impeccably clean with some nice renovations.

Great location. Very Clean. I would say the only thing that I would add to this rental is in the bedroom with the twin beds I would add a folding luggage rack and in the kitchen a Keurig which most people use these days. Other than that I give it a great recommendation.

Great house 2 blocks from Main Street! The house is cozy, clean, and super comfortable. The mattress in the primary bedroom is especially comfortable. We loved the porch, the friendly lady across the street, walking around the neighborhood and the easy 5 min walk to downtown. Would definitely recommend this house.

Super cute home in a fantastic location to walk everywhere you want to go in Highlands. .3 of a mile from downtown shopping, restaurants, etc. We would stay here again. Close to all hiking, waterfalls and outdoor activities. Particularly enjoyed hiking Glen Falls and Whiteside Mountain. Walked to dinners each night. Excellent restaurants and fun shopping in Downtown Highlands. Very comfortable home that had everything we needed for a great long weekend.
