Fall Break

We had a wonderful stay with our family ranging from age 13-74. The house was very spacious and clean. The manager was easy to work with. The house is in a great, convenient location. I will definitely be saving this to go back in the future.

Highlands Trip

Highlands is our favorite place, and this was by far one of the greatest houses we have rented. The house was beautiful but comfortable, well stocked, and the two wood burning fireplaces were amazing! There was so much room for our toddlers to crawl/walk, and Alicen was always quick to reply and help us with any question! What a gorgeous house and a wonderful week for our family! Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely home.

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. The team was responsive when I had questions. I appreciated your help. Alicen and Susan were very helpful. And Lori answered many of my questions prior to my arrival since this was the first time I have used your rental company. One suggestion...In the past when we have rented Highlands properties, including this one, we were able to send a check for our stay and avoid any extra charges incurred by using a cc. It would be nice if you would accept a check. I offered to send one and was told by Lori that I had to use a cc and pay the fee.

Thanks for the review Dorothy. We're happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately when you book on a third party booking platform, like VRBO, we don't have the option of letting you pay by check.

We specifically contacted this company because the house we love to stay in, when we want to stay near downtown is currently with them. This home holds a lot of memories and a truly special place in our hearts. It wouldn't be possible to have a "bad stay" here or in Highlands. That being said, this is the most amount of money that we've ever spend on a rental as well as the most issues we've had during a stay at a vacation rental. We checked in on 7/8 and were not able to take showers due to them backing up, Joe wasn't able to get to the house until the evening of 7/9. On 7/13 the shower light in the master bathroom went out, Joe was contacted. The next evening he came out and was very confused that the light socket wasn't a traditional bulb. Then next time he came, a few days later, he couldn't figure it out. The issue wasn't resolved during our stay and weren't able to take showers downstairs in our room. On 7/14 the AC upstairs stopped working, Joe was not able to locate the ac handler and didn't have a shopvac available otherwise my husband wouldn't removed the clog. The ac tech there on 7/15 for almost 4 hrs., on the 16th the AC stopped working again - at this point saying anything felt pointless. My text messages were not getting the same response time, or even responded to at all. We understand that issue can arise, but we were not able to enjoy our vacation the way we had imagined. I'm still waiting for Alicen to get back with me after getting in touch with the property owners (from 7/15). Alicen was great during the booking process and responded to my check-in questions quickly. Joe was polite, but it was clear that he didn't know the property (where rooms were located) and didn't seem to have a clear understanding of property maintenance (ie why an AC would need to be shop vacuumed to remove a clog, how to spray bug spray outside the house, different types of light bulbs needed for different sockets).
