Family getaway

Check in was so easy ! And the chocolate cake was a hit ! We enjoyed our few nights away as a growing family. We didn’t even use one of the bedrooms and had 16 total ,including little ones. We hiked and visited Highlands , so close ! Definitely a house to keep in mind for future mountain trips !!!

Fourth of July, incredible family getaway

Our family has been going to Highlands North Carolina for quite some while we are from Florida our children live in Alabama and Georgia. We all met up at Valentine estate and probably had the finest time we’ve had on the family getaway in our lifetime. It was truly everything we imagined, and Janet was superb in every way. What a perfect place!!!

Well appointed. Great location.

Perfect house for a family or multi-couple getaway. Close to town in a beautiful wooded setting. Very well appointed with everything you need in the kitchen. Would love to come back in the winter to enjoy the wood burning fireplaces!

Amazing house for multiple families!

We loved our stay! The house was big enough for two large families. We didn’t even use the guest house but will definitely be back and bring grandparents. The backyard is magical and great place for kids to explore. The location is also great and close to downtown!

Wonderful weekend getaway!

Our group of college friends and spouses had a wonderful stay at this property! We were celebrating our 60th birthdays, and had everything we needed for a weekend of fun, fellowship and football! The house is just beautiful and very well equipped down to perfectly stacked and cut wood for the fireplaces. We even had lighted make up mirrors! It was more than advertised! Janet was available to answer all questions before and during our stay. We would definitely stay there again.

Incredible property

The home was beautifully decorated and well taken care of. The beds and bathrooms were also very clean. The backyard was breathtaking! We absolutely loved all of the fireplaces inside and outside! We had such a lovely time! The home is also so close to town which was a huge plus for us! We will most certainly be back! The house manager was also so wonderful to work with! Provided us with an infant bath and toddler booster seat. She was so accommodating and extremely helpful in providing all sorts of recommendations! We travel to Highlands often and this is one our favorites homes and house managers!

Great weekend!

We loved the house and it was perfect for our family ranging from age 9 months to 87. So much space and good for multiple groups to each have their own area. And our grandchildren had so much fun exploring the fairytale back yard. Janet was great, meeting us at the house when we arrived and giving us a tour, and was readily available via text for any questions we had. And the bottle of wine and s’mores kit left for us were fun surprises. All in all a wonderful weekend and I would definitely recommend the house.

Fantastic Home!

We came in town for my niece's wedding. I waited too long to book rooms at the suggested hotel and had to find an alternative place. Oh my Gosh! I'm so glad I procrastinated! This house is Fabulous....Spacious, Super clean, and Fully Stocked. We were only 5 minutes from the Old Edwards Inn where the wedding party stayed & so much more comfortable. Several people complained that the hotel bar was crowded, noisy & super expensive. My brother could never find an open seat, so he and some of the others ended up coming over to our house to hang out and visit. Janet was great. She greeted us and showed us around the house. Staying at Valentine Estate made our family wedding so incredibly special. Highly recommend!

FABULOUS property!!

I was a bit hesitant to rent a house without any reviews. The photos and description sounded like everything we wanted. Janet was great about answering questions before we booked. I’m so glad I trusted my instinct! The house was comfortable, immaculate & just 5 minutes from downtown Highlands. The 8 of us have been getting together for an annual “girls trip” for over 25 years. This is without a doubt the best appointed house we have ever rented. There are 3 fireplaces…. we loved the one in the kitchen. The bedrooms were private & spacious with super comfy beds. Every bathroom had a lighted makeup mirror & plenty of supplies. There were even 3 different coffee stations. Great layout….We loved hanging out together around the fireplace in the great room and retreated to our private rooms at night. We stayed just 3 nights, but wish we had booked a week. We all want to come back with our families. Just a perfect place.

Lots of firsts. Looking forward to seconds!

First time VRBO, first time Valentine Estate offered for rental, first mountain vacation and first time Highlands. What could go wrong? Nothing went wrong. It couldn’t have gone any better! We are 5 retired couples from Naples, Florida, who have been everywhere together and have high expectations when we travel. We were not disappointed! The house is spacious, beautifully appointed, gorgeous grounds, no amenity spared and only minutes to downtown Highlands. It was so perfect that we never heard the perennial complaint about getting “the bad bedroom!” Janet, the property manager, was delightful, efficient and a great communicator. We were treated to wine and a charcuterie board upon arrival and Janet helped with restaurant and sightseeing recommendations. Concierge service without concierge pricing. I plan to treat my three generations of family to the Valentine Estate experience this summer. All I need is a date.

So much more than a vacation home...

We rented the Valentine Estate for our annual ladies' weekend, and it was magical from the moment we submitted our reservation. Janet, the concierge in every sense of the word, contacted me immediately to ensure our stay was memorable. Janet greeted me upon arrival with wine and a lovely cake. We’ve stayed in luxury properties, but never one as eclectic as this. The home is a feast for the senses, surrounding you with whimsical decorations, rich tapestries, and unusual artwork. She escorted me through the labyrinth of rooms and hallways, taking note of my every comment (even adjusting the thermostat as I joked about hot flashes). If I stopped to admire a painting or piece of furniture, she knew the unique history of each item. The pinnacle was the newly installed deck overlooking what can only be described as a fairy garden. Finding a home for ten high-maintenance ladies was a near-impossible task, but I could not have been more pleased. The guest house was perfect for the early-to-bed crew, while the basement suite was built for an introvert like me. Main-floor accommodations met the needs of my boisterous, late-night guests, while upstairs bedrooms allowed late sleepers to languish in comfort until early afternoon. The large, well-stocked kitchen was a dream, while the dining room provided ample room to gather for meals and games. Therein lies the magic of the home – it has something for everyone. Stop scouring through websites for the perfect home. You’ve found it.
