Thank you for opening your home to our family! This was my son's first trip to Highlands (2 months old <3 ) so this trip was extra special for our whole crew! Every morning and vening with this spectacular view was my personal favorite! We hope to be back sooner than later!

We absolutely LOVED the Britton House! While some might describe it as "dated," we found it CHARMING with a stunning view off the back deck. And it was so peaceful and quiet throughout our stay. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen fully ready to setup housekeeping. We had some fun family dinners using the gas grill on the deck. That's a great addition! We plan to return next year for another stay. Please thank the owner for letting us enjoy their special home!

We are completely charmed by your sweet home and its' 4 generations of family memories made here. We can imagine you as a child enjoying the mountains with your grandparents and later your children with theirs. Now we have made memories of our own at the Britton House. Thank you!

We have hiked Whiteside, Sunset, Glen Falls, Chinquapin.Enjoyed the fabulous Chamber Concerts, a wonderful play, movies, great farmers market free concerts on Friday & Saturday , we love CLE and especially enjoyed Route 66 presentation; the Nature Center & Biological center were in their blooming Glory.

We had a great time dining out at Madisons, Wolfgangs, Canyon Kitchens, & Wild Thyme, but our favorite meals were on your deck with the mountains and the forest spread before us. Sunsets made dinner a nightly event. 

Peace & Gratitude,

This is our 6th time here. It's so peaceful! We love the view, the sunsets, walking into town and the quiet street. We know the house is dated but that adds to the appeal.. It's comfortable and well loved. We loved the new livingroom furniture! We are sad to leave today but we know we will return soon!

Britton House is wonderful! The views are unbeatable. It is hard to find something less than a mile from town with those kind of views. Beds are comfortable, A/C works great, well equipped kitchen and great location (although you may not want to walk to town with kids because there is no sidewalk for a portion of the walk).We were there with our 2 small children so it was perfect for us. We will definitely stay again.Easy

This cabin was by far the one that provided most of the small things a renter looks for. From napkins, new sponge, huge assortment of pots and pans, it was the bestLori was very helpful.

Review from Suzi

by Suzi
Cant say enough about this place. First of all the view is gorgeous and the sunsets are beautiful. A great place to relax and just enjoy life for a while. there are a couple towns to visit nearby and tons and tons of wonderful hikes with beautiful waterfalls . The little town is very easy to walk to and has a lot of interesting shops with great people in the town to help you with anything you may need. The house is exceptionally well stocked. Ive been to many timeshares and never have had anything as well stocked as this. Theres nothing I could need which makes it nice since youre up on the mountains. A well loved home and taken care of. Felt like you were just walking in to housesit for someone for a while -would totally recommend this to anyone for a wonderful vacation. Our 10 days went by way too fast!Was done online so never met anyone. Very efficient and easy to find the place with great directions.

Lauren (?) was easy to speak to and made it easy to make the reservation. We had tried on VRBO but the system kept kicking us out or we could not confirm with the owner of the various properties. I really helps to just be able to pick up the phone and ask what is available.

Review from Whitaker and Amanda

by Whitaker and Amanda
Britton house is charming and the views are what makes this house phenomenal. The house is straight out of the 60s which is nostalgic to some or could be described as dated to others. The Mountain views from the living room, porch and master bedroom are absolutely breathtaking with perfect sunset view. The closeness to town cant be beat. The sunset had us swooning and growing to LOVE this property. 5 stars for value, Cleanliness, location and views!Fast reliable service.

The website prices are very confusing. The girl who attended the phone (NOT Lori) did not seem up to your standards. I told her my dates and she came back with completely different dates. She said it would be hard to walk to town from Britton House. Etc. If I hadn't rented from you before I wouldn't have been impressed. She needs a little more training.Lori is really nice
