Horrible Experience!
Our stay at this VRBO was an absolute nightmare from start to finish. First, they cancelled our reservation at the very last minute, forcing us to scramble and reschedule. Did NOT get my cancellation fee back!!! When we finally arrived, the place was a disaster.
We walked in to find that none of the beds were NOT made, and the sheets on the beds were dirty. It was clear the place had not been cleaned at all. To make matters worse, the towels were filthy too. We left messages but nobody called back. When we finally got ahold of them they were sooo rude!!!
But the worst part was when our grandfather sat on a rocking chair and the chair just exploded on him, resulting in a huge gouge in his head.. blood was everywhere and It was a terrifying experience for all of us. Please look around and update some stuff!!!
To top it all off, the toilets did not work. We were left with no functioning bathrooms for our stay. Make some updates OR don’t rent out!
This VRBO was a complete disaster. I would strongly advise against booking this place.

This is our 4th year renting this property. It is located about a 10 minute walk to Main Street but sits on a cozy and secluded 2 acre lot. Very convenient to everything.
The home does show its age a bit and the stove and dishwasher both had issues when we stayed. The oven door would not open and the dishwasher did not drain properly.
The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. The large deck and outdoor fire pit were both well used during our stays. The bedrooms all were comfortable.
For the price point, this is an excellent value in Highlands. We'll be back!

Historic home walking distance from highlands. The wall heating units take a minute to figure out but would come again.

Our family had a relaxing time in Highlands Labor Day weekend. This house is very close to downtown. We walked in to town most days. Great time!

This is our second stay at this location and it has served as a great “home base”, once again.
The house is older and a bit dated but clean in general. The grounds are really great with plenty of green space and well cared for.
The location is about three or four blocks from Main St. so it is a short and scenic walk to the center of town.
We’d definitely stay again

The property was very nice on approx 2 acres. It is an older home but it was well kept and in my opinion very cozy and
laid back.
My only problem was that the property manager did not return my calls or email regarding how to check in. I literally had to make four separate attempts to finally get some information on where to pick up keys.
So property good! Location great!
Management company, meh at best. A communication in advance of arrival is pretty standard in my vrbo experience so this was definitely not the norm

Charming old house. Some aspects could use updating. Oven door was locked and would not open. One of the stove burners wouldn’t work. Garbage disposal non functional as well. Missed a few housekeeping details such as guest beds not fully made. Overall a nice place and would stay there again.

House is in a great location, and had plenty of space for our group of 8. We had no heat upstairs on our first night (propane heater and gas to house was not turned on). I got a response on my 2nd call to agency (about noon). Heaters were very tricky to light. We had to call agency again about 6pm- got a very quick response then. With a large group, be mindful that hot water heater can not handle multiple showers at once. Other little glitches with house: remote control didn’t work in Master and half-bath door didn’t lock. Yard was really big and outdoor fire pit was awesome.

a lovely 1900s farmhouse with almost 3 acres. My favorite part was sitting on the porch with a coffee and watching a young deer eat little crab apples. Very convenient location yet private and rustic. I would definitely go back!

Our group loved the Whittle Farmhouse. We were in town for the Food & Wine Festival. The location was perfect. The house was cozy and cute. Not luxurious but perfect for a mountain weekend.
