Cute Dog Friendly Cottage
Mary Jo’s cottage was extremely clean and comfortable. Since downtown parking is usually, limited, we took advantage of the short 0.4 mile walk into town. The backyard was perfect for the dogs with its own dog door and they also met a few new pals at the nearby dog park!

Wonderful stay - A++++!
Cozy, very well kept and appointed home that is only a few blocks walking distance from the center of charming Highlands, NC. The hosts were consummate professionals and even had bottled water and a big basket of snacks ready for our enjoyment. Highly recommend!

Great Long Weekend
We had a lovely time staying at your home! Everything was ready when we arrived - including welcome snacks! We enjoyed our walk to town both days. And the porch was fun for extra R&R!! Looking forward to our next visit!
