BIRTHDAY GETAWAY

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It is not often that we can getaway due to work, life, etc. We rescued Gia, our Shar Pei in 2020. She had a very rough life prior to her rescue. She just turned 9 and we decided it was time for a mountain getaway. We smiled nonstop watching her explore and relax. We love renting through Sliding Rock. There are not many companies that treat fur babies like family.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cabin was amazing. It had everything needed to make our stay enjoyable.

Nice and Relaxing Stay

My sister and I had a wonderful time at our cabin. It was nice to arrive with the cabin clean, the lights on and tv going after a long drive. The location was perfect for getting all the necessities we needed for our stay as well.

We absolutely loved this cabin! It was perfect for our short getaway. We especially felt secure allowing our fur baby free to run around in the enclosed areas without a leash but with our supervision. Everything was clean and tidy. I wouldn’t have known it was a pet friendly cabin if not for the description and complementary pup treats! The extra deck with the hot tub and solar lights were also a plus. We definitely look forward to visiting again!

Easy check-in. Did wish the property had a few more kitchen basics like olive oil for pans, a few basic seasonings/dried herbs would be nice. Overall great though.

Wonderful

We had an amazing and romantic birthday weekend. We didn’t use the fire pit because the steps were very steep and narrow. The road to get there was one car wide mountain side which was a little rough. Everything else was wonderful!

Absolutely Amazing!!

My husband and I came for a quick getaway for my birthday. Hands down my best cabin experience. If you have fur babies and want a quaint and quiet getaway, this is perfect! Very clean and extremely dog friendly. We enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. If you cook, they have everything you need. Highland Cottage is beautiful!! And your fur babies will feel right at home. We can’t wait to go back!!❤️
