We loved the stay at this cozy cottage because of all the amenities we needed . The lovely bathroom had heated floors. The front porch was great to relax on. It was nestled on a quiet street that was great for evening walks. We would love to stay there again!
We were very pleased with our Stay. Attention to details, everything you need, tastefully remodeled. Simple yet refined. Great place to stay just down the road from DT. We will be booking this again.
We enjoyed our stay and had a relaxing time. We saw a bear at night which was really neat (we were on the porch and not in harms way). The heated floors in the bathroom were so nice. The property was super clean, tidy and cute. Would stay here again.
Such a lovely little home! The heated bathroom floors were a dream come true, and I loved the kitchen. Le creuset everything was such an excellence touch! I would love to come back in the summer as the location has a lot of great walking trails!
We came for the food and wine festival over the weekend. The cottage was perfect! It was clean, comfortable, and well taken care of. Quiet neighborhood just down the street from the center of town. Five stars and we would definitely stay here again!
This was a great small cabin loaded with personality and all the amenities we needed.. The location was perfect and very close to downtown Highlands, perfect for a family wedding weekend.
What an incredible find! This cabin is so charming; both beautiful and comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped and the stacked drawer-style refrigerator freezer offers more storage room than you'd think! The bathroom and shower are large and luxurious and the bed is very comfortable. We loved sitting on the front porch, enjoying the cool breezes and the mountain air. We plan to rent again soon.
We really enjoyed our stay in Highlands. The property is in an excellent location with short drives or moderate walks to downtown. Easy check in and easy check out process. Beautiful little cabin. Excellent experience overall.
This property is adorable, clean and ideally situated in Mirror Lake, a close walk to downtown Highlands. The owners have a great eye for design and have made the cottage not only charming but comfortable. Would definitely recommend this cottage to friends and family!
What a moody, rustic, chic mountain cabin! The decor was thoughtful, the furnishings cozy, and the location ideal. Fly Creek manages to feel both tucked away while being less than two minutes from town. You can't beat a restorative trip in Highlands with the quaint shops, elevated restaurant scene, and great hiking/waterfalls... and Fly Creek is the perfect spot from which to enjoy all that Highlands has to offer!
Well-appointed and beautifully decorated, this is a cozy cabin with perfect space for two. It was spotlessly clean, and had every amenity one would need for a getaway in a mountain setting. We particularly enjoyed reading on the porch and walking along the greenway path downtown, and we fell in love with all Highlands has to offer. Very much appreciated the info about hikes and area attractions provided by the hosts.
Perfect cottage for two. Thoughtfully appointed. Everything we needed for a long weekend. We didn’t cook, but kitchen was well stocked. Loved the heated floor and large shower in the bathroom. Quiet location, but close to Highlands.
We give this cottage all the stars. Incredibly well appointed and decorated with traditional Carolina and highland antiques.
Better than having your own private luxury suite at a hotel. Fantastic walks can be had just outside the door and into town.
Wonderful nature trail/Park area accessible and nicely hidden just down the street. Feels like you’re well outside of town, but in fact, you are just around the corner. We would happily stay again!
Nice little spot in the Highlands. Rental had everything we needed. Easy drive to town, we walked a few times. Great walking right near the rental. We saw many trails when we were on our walk but were a little nervous about bears so stayed on the back roads, very little traffic and pretty scenery. Enjoyed the tennis and pickleball at the park near town. Good restaurants and shopping all very close. We had a great time, thank you very much!
