Great little home away from home

This was out first time in Highlands and we loved exploring the area. Bonus was an excellent stay - loved the neighborhood, close to lots of shops and restaurants. Bagel place in town was excellent. Kitchen had everything we needed. Plenty of towels and linens. I actually had the best sleep during my stay. Great little place.

Nice gateway

Property is very nice and cozy exactly like the pictures, looks bigger in reality, except for the bathroom, which we find out to be very small. It is equipped with all you need in the kitchen. Property is close to restaurants, seabright and sandy hook beaches by car. Only bad thing is we noted a couple utensils , plate and cup to be a bit dirty, which you don’t expect when you are paying for additional cleaning fee. Maybe it was left that way by the last occupant? overall we liked the stay and would come back.

Lovely house that had all we needed for our trip. Convenient location that puts you near everything but not in the middle of downtown. Host was fantastic!
