Summary: The place was in a perfect location to exploreBoth Highlands and Cashiers. It was perfect for our family of 4. It was clean and had all the amenities needed to have a relaxing weekend in the mountains!

Summary: A great location and if you are looking for a functional corporate style space then this house fits the statement - however if you are expecting a cosy home then this is not for you. The furnishings are as expected from a standard rental not a home - the bathrooms are functional and offer a corporate feel. The kitchen has a drip coffee but no K-cup which was surprising, no stem glasses which again was odd. The house missed the little touches that you would have hoped would have been there if someones actual home or managed by the owner rather than a corporate entity - overall was good but not excellent - but good value for money

Summary: This townhouse is clean, beautifully furnished, and in a lovely, quiet location close to town and restaurants. However, we found the mattresses, pillows, and living room furniture extremely hard and uncomfortable causing back and neck pain. The television remotes in the bedrooms didn't work properly. This could be an amazing rental with mattress and furniture changes.

Summary: Yes wish there was a couch or more comfortable living room seating

Summary: Great place and great location

Summary: The house was in a nice neighborhood. Even though the porch looks onto the street, there was very little traffic. The neighborhood was VERY hilly, so walking the dog is a challenge. Bathrooms could have been cleaner, and there was a problem with musty towels that VACASA rectified. The seats in the living room are uncomfortable and hard, not conducive to watching football or a movie. Beds were comfortable. Water pressure great. Wi-Fi great and TV had many channels. Home is a short, easy drive to downtown Highlands. All roads are paved, and no crazy mountains to drive.

Summary: Lovely, spacious sitting area with a wonderful front porch. We had a difficult time getting into the home because the door code wasn't working, the instructions were unclear, or our ineptitude. The beds are comfortable, the bathrooms were clean, and the kitchen was well equipped. We would definitely like to stay again.
