Aug 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quintessential Old Highland Chic The Santulah Mountain Retreat is quintessential old Highlands chic. Everything was thought out and put together with care and love. The instructions were thorough and very helpful. We were all very comfortable and right at home. The proximity to town was great - we enjoyed cooking in and nights out on the town. This place has the feeling of a home, not as a rental - everything feels nice and cared for. We enjoyed it so very much. ##### Ali J.
