The location, accommodations, and ease of booking were perfect. Close to virtually everything we wanted to do (waterfall chasers), and with the house being just the right size and comfort, we had a very relaxing time! Sitting in front of a roaring fire while Mother Nature raged outside was our favorite part.

FAQs about hotels in Highlands

What Guests Said About Highlands:

Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.0

Great location, pleasant staff.

Great location, pleasant staff. I found it odd that there were no closets, dresser draws or hangers in the rooms. I did ask for hangers and I got two, this made it difficult to put clothes away and forced you to live out of your suitcase,

Nice shopping area.

Nice shopping area. Enjoyed all the waterfalls just outside of Highlands. Awesome lunch at The Ugly Dog. It was definitely busy downtown on Saturday. Phenomenal desserts at the Edelweiss Pastry Boutique just outside town.

I expected there to be art galleries to visit, but downtown was mostly clothing stores, restaurants, and realty companies. The main reason for our trip to Highlands was to visit the Bascom Center for the Arts after visiting their web site. Knowing that they (and most art galleries) are closed on Mondays, we tried to visit on Tuesday. However, a small sign at the entrance said they were CLOSED for a private event. This seemed odd during peak tourist season on a Tuesday, but apparently they are mainly a local event venue. The town of Highlands was disappointing. In contrast, Highlands Botanical Gardens and several hiking trails north of Highlands were beautiful. Over our three-day stay I took a lot of inspiring reference photographs to use for painting.

We love the Highlands area.

We love the Highlands area. I do wish the restaurants would be open longer hours and not close during the day. Often we are in the area to work so our mealtimes are often not traditionally timed. We often have to have a midafternoon lunch, or a really late dinner and we have a hard time finding anywhere to eat.

Have been to Highlands 6 X and every time it’s gotten stiffer than before. The Main St restaurants are nearly all dress up w linen, except for the sports bar, Ugly Dog,’ which is great. Try the other Mt towns …much more real people like.

Highlands is a nice up-scale small town in the mountains of southern North Carolina. It's a very laid back, quiet place to relax and have a good time, with excellent restaurants and wineries. Paoletti's Ristorante and the Old Edwards Inn wine garden are fabulous. High Country Wine and Provisions, owned by Sonoma Valley Davis Family Vineyards, is worth a visit, with wine tastings, etc.

The property was very well equipped with all that we needed for our stay. Wonderful large bedroom and bath on the second floor with a nice bedroom and bath on the main floor as well. Perfect for one or two couple to enjoy and relax. Great location not far out of town in Highlands and also close to nearby waterfalls. Very convenient for the shops and restaurants that we wanted to shop and dine. Hope to stay at this property again when visiting Highlands.

10/10 for everything. Superb downtown location with easy access to all the restaurants and shops, superb manager, very responsive and helpful. The unit's interior finishes and decor are just awesome, very comfortable, well stocked with everything. Seriously, well done! The In-Town Trails were a nice surprise and of course a lot of great hiking and waterfalls in the area to visit. We will be back. Highly recommend.
