Perfect Locatiom

Our family of 3 had a wonderful stay at your cozy cottage! We have been coming to Highlands for several years and this was the first time that we rented a home. The location could not be any better! Your home was cozy and adorable. I would highly recommend Tally-Ho to anyone looking for a special place within walking distance to downtown.

Adorable mountain cabin

Property owner’s communication and willingness to help was top notch. The cabin was cozy and very clean. It was a perfect place for four girlfriends to have a weekend away. And being able to walk into the cute town of Highlands was a nice bonus.

Charming home

We stayed at Tallyho for three nights(4 adults). It’s a lovely home located close to town in one direction and waterfalls in the other!. It’s very clean and coZy with seemingly new appliances in the kitchen. Comfy beds! We especially enjoyed watching several humming birds visiting the feeder on family room window! Will is a very responsive host. A great property!

Perfect Highlands house, quick walk to town

Tally-Ho was the perfect spot for a long weekend with our family. It was a very short walk to town which was nice with a stroller, but also had the feeling up tucked away in the mountains with a beautiful view. The amenities at the house included everything we needed (kitchen appliances, hairdyrer, comfortable living space, etc) and more (highchair and great fire place). Will made communication and check in and check out very easy and flexible, which we appreciated traveling with a small baby. We would definitely want to rent Tally-Ho again with family or friends any time of the year!

Tally-ho to the Tally Ho

We loved this house! It is absolutely charming and perfectly appointed, with the right blend of antiques, charm, and comfort. The beds are so comfortable and the linens top grade. The kitchen/living room is an open concept and perfect for great conversations while meals are prepared. The kitchen is also perfectly appointed and the only noted absence was a cork screw (which we remedied, and left for the next guests). We used the wood burning fireplace two nights and it was charming -- the draft works well, so no problems with getting our little blaze going. The wifi worked liked a charm; the best connectivity I have had, which was perfect for our group of professional women that needed to stay in touch. The Holt Circle is a perfect 1.4 mile early morning walk and the glen about 1/2 way from the Tally-Ho to the right is stunning. Although close to town, we say several deer and heard something at the trashcan in the wee hours of the morning which was either a very large raccoon or perhaps a bear. (The warning about bears and trash cans are real; on the way out of town, less than a 1/4 mile from the Tally-Ho, I say two homes who had been vandalized by the local bears - - the bears had a great evening; the homeowner or renters were going to be spending some quality time on a fall day cleaning up.) Our host was equally charming, always responsive. And as an added plus, someone in the home is a Clemson graduate, which fit particularly well with one of our group, as her husband received his masters from Clemson. All-in-all, it was a lovely time. Highly recommend.

My name is Will Pichard. My wife Abby and I live in Tallahassee, FL. We love to travel and especially love all that the Highlands, NC area has to offer. We are excited to open our home to others to experience the beauty of Highlands, NC.

Why they chose this property

Feels like a real cottage. Close enough to walk yet feels off the beaten path! Great location, location, location, location! Some of our favorite trails and waterfalls are minutes away. Or go canoeing in one of the beautiful nearby lakes, also only minutes away.

What makes this property unique

Anything outdoors - thats what attracts us to Highlands, western North Carolina, and the mountains. We travel all over the world seeking out beautiful scenery, hikes, waterfalls, and adventures! Some of our favorite trails are within a few miles of Highlands, NC. Have we found the perfect place for our mountain cottage?
