Magnificent views,covered deck,gas fireplace,new modern construction

Please be aware and we cannot stress enough!!!!! PLEASE READ: The driveway is steep at this home and may require an experienced driver or 4-wheel/all-wheel drive vehicle in. This home also has a flight of stairs to the front door that may not be suitable for non-able bodied persons, elderly or small children. This home has a narrow steep driveway with no turnaround followed by 2 flights of stairs. Options were limited due to Highlands watershed regulations. This is also what allows a beautiful view once up to the amazing home but it will make it harder to get in and out. PRICING ON THIS HOME REFLECTS THE DIFFICULTY

This is a delightful gem of a home, newly constructed and ready for guests! Decorated with beautiful antiques warming this home while bringing in the mountain ambiance and being professionally designed, thoughtfully anticipating for every need a guest may have to keep you snuggled in for a total mountainside experience. Turtle Knob is situated on the mountainside offering incredible views for you to enjoy while drinking your favorite beverage! Plenty of streets safe for walks and hiking/biking opportunities nearby, with Mirror Lake a short trip from the cottage and Main Street only a mile away!

Turtle Knob has one very comfortable new king sized bed, one queen and a queen sleeper sofa, two private en-suite full size bathrooms and one half, new furnishings and high quality linens. The home features a split bedroom layout, perfect for two couples and a kitchen well equipped with all of the essentials you may need for your stay.
All linen, towels, shampoo, conditioner and body wash are provided for your convenience. We pre-stock the kitchen with starter Keurig pods, various creamers and sugars.
We have air conditioning should it be necessary.

Pet fee applies. Please also note this home offers “cancel for any reason” insurance.

Gorgeous Home!
The house was beautifully decorated and very clean! We enjoyed the mountain views and will definitely be back! The driveway is just as advertised being steep, an experienced driver will be fine, but 4WD was very helpful!

Gorgeous home, impeccably furnished.
Absolutely beautiful home. Hotel class service. Super clean. Nicely decorated. Lovely deck with views. This is a 5 star except for the access which is clearly outlined in the description. Having said this this was no trouble for me to reverse up with 4WD. The stairs was a much appreciated workout for me too 😀our host Holly was 6 stars for communication. We would definitely stay here again.

5 Star View!
The house is absolutely perfect! Big beautiful kitchen with everything you need. Really nice dishes, glasses and cutlery. The view from the deck is amazing - we spent a lot of time out there! The driveway, is as described - very steep. You will need 4WD or at least AWD.

Great Location and Home
We had a great trip to Highlands. The house is very clean, close proximity into town, and overall a great property. The driveway is very steep, however, the listing is accurate and provides an accurate notice to guests. Really enjoyable time; we will be back.

Gorgeous Views and Close to Town
This new property has the most beautiful views and is walkable to town. Nicely decorated and furnished. We very much enjoyed our stay and will be back. As previous reviewers have mentioned, the driveway is very steep so expect to walk a bit to get to the front door. That was expected, though.
