The quintessential Highlands charmer makes its way into the new age! This home is what vacationing in downtown Highlands is all about - the luxury of being close to downtown while exuding sophistication and style. A recent remodel has totally transformed this mountain cabin that now boasts exquisite details and décor such as beautifully refinished hardwood floors, 3 remodeled bedrooms, 3 renovated full baths, and lower level bonus room with half bath. The layout is very functional - the living room sits just off of the kitchen with a wood burning fireplace as the centerpiece. It opens to a dedicated dining space that leads to the back deck. Covered and screened, that back deck is spacious, allowing you to open up the doors to enjoy the mild summer days on the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau. The modern conveniences haven't been forgotten....flat screen tv's in the living room and two bedrooms along with wifi internet. Main level has a Master Suite (King) with access to the screened porch, and 2 guest bedrooms (Queens) on either side of the Kitchen. The owners have endeavored to make the most of the space on the painted mason-brick lower level, which has a second laundry machine set and a 4th bonus room with a Full and Twin bed, and a unique split half-bath. Book now to enjoy what Highlands has to offer with Estes Cottage!

You Will Love This House!

by Janet W

I am picky where I stay, and put a lot of time into deciding on the house I think will be right for us. This house was fabulous!! In fact, I have already shared it with some friends. Rusty was so wonderful & helpful to work with. He reached out to us on the way up and gave us his personal contact information just in case we needed anything during our stay. He explained on the phone with my husband the best places to hike on the property and how to get there. The house is very modern, well decorated, and has everything you need for your stay. We hope to visit and stay here again.

VRBO Review - "Adorable, well-kept home"

by Lauren C

This was a wonderful house for a long weekend getaway that 6 girls planned. The home is nicely decorated, clean, just as listed in the online review and very comfortable. The upstairs was lovely and suited perfectly for our group of 6. I'd rent this property again for sure!

VRBO Review - "Great Rental"

by Casey C

We had the best time at this rental! It was by far the most well-appointed VRBO rental I have stayed in. Every thing you need for cooking and drinking! Plenty of space for 8 adults to lounge, dine, and sleep. We will be back!
