My parents, dog, and myself had a wonderful 4 night stay here in March. Downtown Highlands is walkable or a minute drive in your car. Loved having the fireplace for March, it was a little too chilly to enjoy the back deck, but would have been really nice in warmer months. Can’t wait to come back! ##### Martha B. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scott H., Montgomery, Alabama, USA Apr 27, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect location This is a recently updated cabin that is in a very quiet neighborhood near Harris Lake. We were able to walk to dinner every night, usually within about 10 minutes. The cabin itself has been completely renovated and was very comfortable. We loved the gas fireplace and the beautiful deck overlooking the wooded areas behind the cabin. Highly recommended. ##### Scott H. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin S., WINNFIELD Dec 11, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A Great Getaway The property is newly-refurbished and very comfortable. The Kitchen has great appliances and is well-equipped for "basic" cooking but if you need specialty tool/implements, bring them with you. Especially if you need a sharp knife for prep work. The bedrooms were comfortable and the bathrooms very well-equipped. Easy travel to all Highlands has to offer. I would stay again. ##### Martin S. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nanette W., Davidson, NC Sep 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Walk to Highlands We enjoyed our long weekend visit to Highlands and especially many walks to the lake with our pups. The home is well equipped, comfortable and cozy and especially enjoyed the quiet back porch. So nice to walk to Main Street Highlands for shopping (10 min walk) or dinner. We had take out from Lakeside Restaurant (5 min walk- highly recommend!!) Also, Just a quick drive to our favorite hiking trails and waterfalls. May be our favorite Highlands retreat and we have been visiting for 25 years. We hope to return!! ##### Nanette W. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brad S.
