 The home was absolutely beautiful. The check in was so easy with the combination device on the door. The kitchen was equipped with all we needed, except a wine opener. We hope to visit the home again in the future,

Thanks for your kind review Diane! We are so glad you enjoyed the home and will make sure to bring a wine opener to the house for future stays. We would love to have you back!

VRBO Review - "Highland Trip"

by Deborah

The house was perfect. The only negative I have is the beds were so hard. They need to put some kind of a foam mattress pad to soften the bed

Hi Deborah, we appreciate your feedback! The owner has purchased several foam mattress toppers to put on the beds, thanks to your suggestion. We hope to see you in Highlands again soon 🙂

VRBO Review - "Long Weekend in Highlands"

by Erin L

The house was very clean and nicely decorated. The location near Highlands was great! It didn’t have much of a view, but lots of places nearby did. It was much bigger than I thought it would be. The owners and management company were very easy to work with! It was a great long weekend!!!

Review from Julie

by Julie
Beautiful home. The view out the back was so peaceful. And the symphony of the birds was wonderful!Fantastic. We had a couple of issues - no sound in the living room tv and a blown light in the master bath. They were quick to respond and resolve each. Communication before and after our stay was fantastic.
