Not every great mountain getaway needs five bedrooms and a game room. Sometimes the best trip you take is the one where everything is just right — the right size, the right feel, the right porch for the right moment. Highlands Haven is that trip.

A beautifully renovated ranch cottage tucked into the quiet Shelby Place neighborhood, five minutes from Main Street Highlands and a world away from the pace of everyday life. Vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, a gas fireplace, a creek you can hear from the deck, and a covered front porch made for exactly the kind of slow morning you've been promising yourself. Two king bedrooms. Two full baths. No wasted space, no missing anything.

Designed for Two, Perfect for Four - The great room earns its name — light-filled and open, with vaulted ceilings that keep the space from ever feeling small and a gas-log fireplace that makes it feel warm without any effort. The open kitchen flows naturally into the living area around a breakfast bar that handles morning coffee, casual lunches, and pre-dinner drinks with equal ease. Both king bedrooms are well-appointed and genuinely comfortable, each served by its own full bath — one with a walk-in shower for the morning rush, one with a deep soaking tub for the evening wind-down. After a day of hiking or exploring town, that tub is not a luxury. It's a necessity.

Three Outdoor Spaces, Each with a Different Mood - The covered front porch is where mornings belong — cool mountain air, a good book, nothing demanding your attention. The open deck off the dining room puts you close enough to the creek to hear it clearly, which turns out to be one of the most effective forms of relaxation available at any price point. And when the evening settles in and the stars come out, the fire pit pulls everyone together for the kind of unhurried conversation that only happens when phones are put down and there's nowhere else to be.

Three distinct outdoor spaces in a two-bedroom cottage. That's the kind of thoughtful design that separates a place you enjoyed from a place you genuinely loved.

Highlands, Five Minutes Away Main Street - Highlands is a short drive from the front door — exceptional restaurants, boutique shops worth browsing, the Highlands Playhouse for a surprisingly excellent evening out, and the Old Edwards Inn & Spa for anyone who wants to fold a little luxury into the trip. Waterfalls and trailheads are equally close. The mountains here have a way of filling a day without any planning required.

Come for the quiet. Stay for everything else.

What our guests are saying…

"Great Stay! The house is beautiful and the pictures don't do it justice. We enjoyed the back porch quite a bit and opened the windows at night to hear the rushing water. As soon as we got there and sat down on the porch, my husband was ready to plan our next stay. The house is located very close to the downtown area and a local grocery store. We cant wait to go back!" - Rent In Highlands Vacation Rental Guest, Nicky
