    Great location close to downtown Highlands. House has everything you would need and the hot tub was a major plus!

    Loved the cabin and location; perfect for family of 4; short easy access to Highlands; only negative is TV is mounted way to high to enjoy; simple fix on a stand or furniture in the right corner. We enjoyed our stay.

    We loved our stay here. Well designed, plenty of room and comfortable with a highly functional kitchen and laundry machines. It had two large decks with wonderful views of the forest, a modern hot tub, and a large private lot. Would stay here again.

    We enjoyed a perfect weekend at the cabin! A lovely cabin in a beautiful setting. Had everything we needed for our weekend getaway. Close enough to everything but remote enough for peace and quiet. We hope to come again!

    We had the most wonderful stay at this home for the 4th of July holiday. The home was perfect for our family of 4. It is wonderfully equipped with everything needed and the amenities (outside fire pit with firewood, indoor fireplace, hot tub, etc) are fantastic. The neighborhood is off the beaten path and I enjoyed walking the nearby woods. Yet still a quick drive to town in Highlands. The host was wonderful and responsive. Possibly our favorite Highlands home in all our years going.

    This house was very spacious and suited our 4 member family very well. Convenient to hiking trails, shopping and restaurants.. Very attractive too! We had a little bit of trouble checking in, as the lockbox was not working but we were able to reach the owners by phone. It would have been nicer to have the lights on when we got there, since we arrived after dark.

    What a perfectly appointed mountain cottage! So serene and peaceful! We loved every minute of our stay at Finchsong. Very quick response time to a slight issue with the hot tub by the owners. We were very impressed! Would love to return!
