Dec 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Definitely in the Highlands The property was definitely in the highlands. You should double check your gps and route since on more than one occasion it takes you through rivers. You better have a good SUV with high clearance. That being said, this little place was cute and clean. The pool area you need to walk down the road to but has a nice little area to hang out and be in the pool and has a good view. The area is very windy so you wil get lots of leaves in the pool but they do.try to clean out a couple times a day. You can tell they take care if the pool though cause the water is not mucky and is very clear even when the leaves are in it. The hosue had nice beds and bathroom and kitchen amenities. The front deck was nice to sit and have coffee. My husband cooked his breakfast on the grill instead of heating up the house. The owners were very communacative and responsive. We had a hard time connecting to wifi because the password was old and the cell service is not so.good that high up but the owner sent to us and ensured we were able to connect. Would recommend. ##### Amber D. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Silke S.
