This cottage was charming and cozy for our midwinter stay. Just minutes to Highlands but quiet and secluded. This is a well maintained historical home in excellent, clean condition. Cozy furniture, wonderful gas fireplace, beautiful views out the windows, antiques everywhere, plenty of space to spread out. Comfortable Beds and three full bathrooms! Host was attentive when needed and very helpful. We plan to return again next year!

Loved our stay!

Our family enjoyed our spring break here this spring. The cabin is exactly as pictured and was a great space with room for the kids to run. It was so nice being close to town but feeling like we were out in the country. We will definitely stay again!

Quaint place to stay

It was a nice place to stay, but is an older home then expected. The price reflected that and it had a nice private country feel.

Amazingly nice older house in a beautiful location. There was some trouble with the air conditioner but the host was extremely helpful in correcting the problem quickly.There is a beautiful meadow in front with mowed paths so that you can walk around to look at the wildflowers.

Perfect Mountain Stay

The cabin was absolutely perfect! Everything was spotless, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen and baths had everything we needed. We built a fire in the fire pit one night and spent the next evening just curled on the sofa with blankets…very relaxing. Hopefully we can return soon!
