We had The Perfect Group Getaway at Highland!

We had the most incredible stay at Highland! This property is perfectly set up for groups or families traveling together. With five separate houses/cabins, each couple (and their kids) had their own private space to relax and recharge—super comfortable and cozy, yet very clean and well-kept. It made the whole experience feel seamless and stress-free.At the same time, the shared space was perfect for gathering. We had the best time cooking and eating meals together, playing games, and just enjoying each other’s company in the inviting common areas. The setup gave us that rare mix of togetherness and personal space.The property has such a charming country feel—peaceful, quiet, and surrounded by nature. We especially loved the beautiful yard, which felt like our own private family estate. Whether we were sipping coffee in the morning sun or just sitting out and chatting while the kids played, it was the kind of place that makes you slow down and soak it all in.And the host was absolutely wonderful—kind, responsive, and clearly dedicated to making sure everything runs smoothly. It really felt like staying at a home away from home.The location was also ideal—so close to everything, but with a peaceful, tucked-away vibe that made us feel like we were far from it all.If you’re planning a group getaway, family reunion, or retreat, Highland is truly a gem. We made amazing memories and can’t wait to come back!

Small and unfinished house with very basic arrangements

very old , small, unfinished house . with 26 people as listed you would not have space to walk in the house . Unfortunately due to weather we couldn’t even stand out in backyard , so was pretty congested living for us. This house is more for campers, bachelor groups rather than family . Negatives- 1. No seatings in the house - all together you will have 1 small Futon sofa to seat in the house . Rest need to bring plastic chairs from basement. 2. Unfinished flooring - Flooring in both properties is unfinished and at some places had sharp wood cuts which hurt many from our group. Poor lights - none of bedroom had ceiling lights , only need to rely on basic standing deemed floor lights . Parking is converted into game or utility room thus you would have to park the cars outside the Garage. But no complaints in that as we got sufficient space to accommodate all cars . . Positive1. Decent gaming room with pool , table tennis 2.multiple bunk beds to allow sleeps more people3. Property owner coordinated well and responded on time .
