2 Bedroom Cabin in Highlands

High Hemlock's stunning finishes and unbeatable in town Highlands location make this 2 bedroom/2.5 bathroom cabin the perfect spot for an upscale mountain escape. Professionally designed with thoughtful touches at every turn, you and your guests will be able to unwind in privacy without ever being far from the action.
The Location: High Hemlock is located within the Highlands town limits near Harris Lake and behind Mountain Fresh Grocery. This is an area where locals come to walk/jog because it's a on a rare flat loop that is a quick 1/2 mile jaunt to Main Street, where all the shops and restaurants are located.
The Property: High Hemlock is located on a 1/2 acre fenced and wooded lot with a small mossy side yard. Hemlock groves, thick, old growth rhododendrons, and maples add privacy from the street. There are 4 rocking chairs on the front porch that are perfect for bird watching or listening to the peace and quiet or the occasional church bells.
The Cabin: As some of our renters once said, "walking into High Hemlock is like stepping into a Garden & Gun spread." Open the creaky screened door to the subtle smell of firewood and the rhododendrons blooming beside the front porch. The cabin is flooded with natural light. Finishes include all shiplap walls, wide-plank hardwood floors, vaulted ceilings with antique wood beams, local slate tile, and the original 1940's Wolf range in the kitchen.
The Layout: From the front porch, guests enter into a large open space that houses the living room with wood burning fireplace on the right, and the dining room for 6 on the left. Both ensuite bedrooms are off of the main living area (one with a king bed and the other with a queen bed). The galley kitchen is to the far left behind the dining room wall and looks out onto the side mossy yard.
The Area: Highlands, NC is the premier mountain destination in the Southeast. Lined with shopping, dining, museums and galleries, the bustling mountain village centering around Main Street is straight from a Norman Rockwell painting. Previously a summer/fall hotspot, it's quickly becoming a year-round destination. At 4,118 feet, it's one of the few temperate rain forests in North America, bringing botanists and nature lovers from all over the world.
Highlands is also a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts. With an abundance of opportunities for biking, hiking, horseback riding, tubing, canoeing, fly fishing, and whitewater rafting, adventure-seekers will not find a more beautiful backdrop.
The Details: The living room and both bedrooms have flat screen smart TV's and standard cable channels. We also have wifi. All of the bedding is memory foam- we understand everyone has their preference, but we get lots of compliments on our comfy beds. The kitchen is stocked with general kitchen essentials. All of our cabins are pet friendly with prior approval and a nominal pet fee.

Summary: This is our 4th time to rent through Elevate Vacation Rentals and it always exceeds our expectations. Why rent a room when you can have so much more! High Hemlock is our go to place to get away but also be close to town. Kristy has a gift of furnishing her cabins so beautifully. It has everything you need ... new appliances, wood burning fireplace... and the best mattresses for mountain sleeping and no road noise! We can't wait to come back again!

Summary: We spend our birthdays at High Hemlock. One in the winter. One in the summer. It’s a special place for us. Kristy is an awesome host and takes good care of us. The house is beautiful. Kristy keeps it updated but it still feels like the same cabin that we love.

Summary: We rented High Hemlock for long weekend and through New Years. We brought our 2 dogs, and cabin was absolutely PERFECT!!! Fenced in yard was so nice so dogs could just explore around without having to be on a leash. Fireplace was also a huge bonus - we had a fire every night!!! We walked into town everyday. There is nothing that we saw in cabin that needed attention, or was missing - just a perfect little get away!! We will definitely be renting again!
