About this property
Luxury Mtn Cabin, Lge Screen Porch w/Woodburning FP, Quiet NBRHD, Mins to MainSt
Welcome to Horseshoe Cabin! The name was coined when an old, rusted out horseshoe was found half buried in the backyard.
That horseshoe is framed and still hangs in the kitchen today.
Proving the legend of the horseshoe to be true, Horseshoe Cabin has thrived. It has been an honor to host so many amazing guests with such fascinating and unique back stories throughout the years.
Located just minutes from the many restaurants, shops, and art galleries on Main Street in downtown Highlands, the cabin is situated in a very quiet, safe neighborhood just off Dillard Road, providing a peaceful haven in contrast to all the excitement the town has to offer.
Horseshoe Cabin is a mile from Glen Falls and is also in close proximity to many other scenic hiking trails & waterfalls.
This designer cabin offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, which were just updated this spring.
The open floor plan features a large living room/dining room combination, a kitchen/bar area, and a small outdoor grilling porch directly off of the kitchen.
The living room boasts high ceilings, wood beams, a ventless gas log stone fireplace with remote control, and new upscale furnishings.
The well-appointed, fully stocked kitchen and Weber gas grill provide everything needed for a night of entertaining or a quiet meal at home.
There is an extensive library to provide endless hours of reading after the day’s activities, lots of games, in addition to smart TV's in all 3 bedrooms, the living room, and on the screened-in back porch.
There is a high-speed cable modem, in addition to WiFi throughout the cabin.
The expanded screened-in back porch provides a peaceful respite after a day of outdoor excursions, activities, or cultural events. Build fires in the wood burning fireplace on chilly autumn evenings, watch football games and your favorite movies on the smart TV, or just relax and listen to nature while enjoying a cup of coffee or a glass of wine.
Bottled water, paper products, spices, and other essentials are provided as a complimentary convenience for guests...firewood as well.
A local baker keeps the cabin supplied with loaves of fresh pumpkin bread for any guests who would like to enjoy. The baker is not the cabin's owner...therefore the breads have been deemed delicious and safe to eat!
The cabin features its very own dining guide, complete with photos and reviews. A regular guest of Horseshoe is a food critic in real life. He has carefully compiled an extensive guide to the restaurant scene and its recommended offerings. A hard copy of his exclusive guide is in the cabin. Upon booking your reservation to stay, I am happy to email the pdf of his collection in advance, as it is always a good idea to make reservations to many of Highlands' most popular dining destinations well ahead of time.
And finally, as a token of your visit to Horseshoe Cabin, each guest will get his/her very own horseshoe to take home...may love, protection, good health, and good fortune always be with you...!
