5 Star ratings from our 2025 guests:
*We loved the condo, the style and quality of bedding, etc. Great location literally a few minutes walk to downtown Highlands.
* Melle is as fantastic host. She was very helpful, providing weather updates days before our trip. During our stay winter weather came through and Melle delivered ice salt so we didn’t slip. She also provided information daily on activities currently going on in the area and was always incredibly responsive when asked for suggestions.
