    This is our second time staying at this property. Beautiful deck and views. Clean and good layout all on same level. Close to town for restaurants and shopping. Perfect house for two older adults and teen grandchild.

    We spent four nights at Honeybee Hideaway with two kids and a dog for our spring break and we had the most fun and relaxing time. The house was super clean and had everything we needed and more. Trista was super helpful while we were making plans and very responsive during our trip. Our kids loved the mountain coaster and the public pool water slide, we hiked Glen Falls which was incredible, and ate at many restaurants in Highlands including Blue Bike (twice), Stubborn Bull and Ugly Dog. The view off the back porch is amazing for sunsets and the neighborhood is so peaceful and quiet but just a short drive to all the action in town. We will definitely be back!

    This was the perfect home to relax and make memories! We spent all of our mornings and evenings on the back porch in front of the fire - stunning!. Every detail was thought of - nothing was overlooked. The location is so close to town, but you feel like you're away from the hustle and bustle when you get back to Honeybee Hideaway. The owners put a lot of love and thought into this home, and you can really feel it while you're staying there. Trista was very responsive and accommodating to our requests. In all my years on VRBO, this was my best experience to date!

    Excellent! The location is perfect. Trista, the host, is amazing. During our stay she was away on a family trip as well and still communicated with us immediately. Incredible host. It doesn’t get better. The property was lovely. Our family really enjoyed the trip. We plan on making it a Thanksgiving tradition.

    Property was as described, very well kept with all the amenities! Grill was brand new, back deck as well. We barbequed steaks and chicken, really enjoyed the view. House had everything we needed, had a 1 year old, had a pack n play, high chair and stroller. Trista our host kepted us well informed with a welcome video and correspondence throughout our stay. 5 minutes to downtown, couldn't have been easier. Great get away in Highlands NC!

    We loved the covered back porch with a view of the mountains while enjoying the fireplace on the cool evenings. The location of the house was very close to town yet, it felt like we were hidden away in the mountains.

    This was a very well equipped home and Trista was a great host. Excellent communication and above and beyond information on the area. You can tell she very much wants for you to enjoy your stay! House had everything we needed and there were touches throughout that made clear she didn't want you to worry about any of the necessities! Thank you so much!

    House is mostly one level which is great for older folks. Deck, both covered and open to enjoy a lovely long range view. Close enough to town to run to the grocery store yet nestled in a safe neighborhood. Been to Highlands many times and this is one the nicest houses I have rented.
