"I really enjoyed my stay at the Dillard house! The newly renovated room was perfect! It was clean, spacious and the private patio with rocking chairs was a treat! The restaurant was delicious and service excellent! They had live music, horseback riding, and the cutest gift shop on site! I was visiting the Highlands so Dillard house was super convenient! The quick drive to Highlands was scenic and I enjoyed stopping at the vineyard at Holly Hill on Scaly mountain on the way! Dillard house is adding a spa, wine bar, distillery, etc. and I look forward to returning soon! A must stay for couples, friend trips and families!"
