This house worked perfectly for 2 couples. The location was very close to town. The host welcomed us with a delicious cake, roses, and wine. Only negative for us is that it is much colder downstairs than upstairs, but some might appreciate that.

Amazing Stay!

We had an amazing stay in Highlands. Property was in a great location that felt secluded but was extremely close to town. Janet was a great host! She met us on site and was available for the entire stay. She was even able to help us with dinner reservations and had a wonderful gift waiting for us when we arrived. This home was perfect for two couples and was extremely comfortable in both the upstairs and downstairs spaces. I could not recommend this place more! We’ll definitely be coming back!
