This was our first vacation in Highlands NC !Our tiny house #7 was very comfortable, cozy and so clean. Loved the vaulted ceilings, rustic decor and the screened in porch, no bugs to bother you.Very beautiful down town area. Great food and shopping. We enjoyed hiking the amazing mountain trails, visited numerous waterfalls, trips to area towns and drove the tail of the dragon.Very memorable vacation. Will be sure to revisit this Southern Charm town.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We're thrilled that Carolina Cozy provided the perfect retreat for your Highlands getaway. It sounds like you made the most of our beautiful area—the hiking, waterfalls, and local charm truly are special. We loved hearing about your adventures, from the Tail of the Dragon to exploring downtown!
We'd be delighted to welcome you back to Highlands and that cozy screened porch anytime. Safe travels, and we hope to see you again soon!
Nice “tiny house” close to center of town and all restaurants and shops. Served as a cozy base for waterfall excursions and short hikes to local observation points.
Really great property, small but perfect for a getaway. The house was in pristine condition and perfect location, a short walk to/from downtown Highlands. Certainly would recommend this cozy cottage!
Really enjoyed our stay. From the check in to check out everything went smoothly with great communication from the owner. Community is very quiet and located within walking distance to town.
