Perfect in town location- nice surprise

by Vikki

I believe if you want an intown simple location, this is perfect. The balcony in my large studio unit hangs over the creek PLUS a very nice gas remote fireplace .... that actually works ! On 2 different locations my last few rentals, the gas remote fireplace was not working. All was fabulous with suite 6 called the Whiteside. I will return !

Amazing stay!

by Suz

Loved my stay in the Whiteside Suite. So much more spacious than expected and that was an added bonus. Great view of the creek and loved the fireplace. Roomy bathroom and is always warm in the winter as the sun hits it in the mid morning. Big, comfy bed and all the amenities you could ever need. Right around the corner from Blue Bike Cafe is also game changer for brekkie in the morning. Parking is located so close to all suites. Didn’t have to use my car but once when waterfalls and hike hopping.

The suite at Inn on Mill Creek was a delight. The shower was amazing and the couch and balcony were bonuses.Dave was extremely helpful and even returned with me to our suite to show me how to make the coffeemaker work. And all with a smile. I have booked with HVR before, and this time they were as helpful as always. I would definitely return.

So cute and such an excellent location. We brought our two young boys with us and the pull out sofa in a BIG studio was perfect! Everyone raved about the shower too!Team was AMAZING from start to finish. We needed a few particular accommodations and everyone was extremely helpful.

What a perfect location! We stayed in the Bear Suite (#6) and it was better than the pictures. We had our own private veranda overlooking the Mill Creek and the room was plenty spacious! A separate dining area and living area with all the cozy accessories; blankets, electric fireplace (it definitely warms up fast!) and as much coffee as you can hope for. We're a coffee couple so this was especially helpful without having to ask each day for more coffee. The bathroom double shower is HUGE. You will love this location and place to stay.Highlands is such a fantastic foodie and activity focused spot. But no worries if you'd rather relax, Highlands Vacation Rentals outfits each of their rooms to make you feel cozy with your own sanctuary hideaway
