    Exceptional property in a perfect location. The welcome package of wine, beer, soda, water, snacks, chocolates and other basic food items (coffee, cereal, milk, etc.) provided a first-class touch. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

    Absolutely amazing home and host - we’ve already recommended it to all our friends and family! The location could not be more perfect. Situated right above Highlands Tavern, we were able to walk to all the shops, restaurants, and everything downtown has to offer with ease.The loft itself is stunning - incredibly spacious, beautifully decorated, and truly feels like you're in a luxury penthouse. Each bedroom was thoughtfully set up with extra linens, towels and bathrobes, which was such a nice touch.David goes above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. The kitchen was fully stocked with wine, beer, bottled water, coffee, milk, orange juice, cheese, crackers, and more - so generous and unexpected. And as an extra surprise, the chef from downstairs delivered fresh-made bagels upon our arrival. Such a memorable welcome!We could not have asked for a better stay and will absolutely be back. If you’re considering this property — book it. It’s perfection!!

The location is great and you can walk to all of your favorite Highlands shops and restaurants. Beds are comfortable and there are plenty of towels so you aren't doing laundry on vacation. We will definitely be returning!

    The Nest is a perfect place to stay in the highlands. This place was better than what the pictures showed. They do an incredible job decorating and providing a peaceful, relaxing experience. It is walking distance to all shops in town. David is quick to respond and his instructions on check in were very easy to follow. We will be booking this property for all our future trips to the highlands.

Best possible location in Highlands North Carolina to stay as well. Walking distance to every great restaurant in town. My wife has been coming to Highlands North Carolina since 2016.

    We celebrated Fourth of July in Highlands and had an excellent stay at this property. The owners were very communicative and the check in process was seamless. We really appreciated the amazing food/set up for our check in.. fridge full of drinks, milk, OJ, cheese, etc as well as muffins, fruit, and crackers. The kitchen was well stocked and we loved the bathroom toiletries, too. It felt more like a hotel stay minus the maid service :) It is located above Highlands Tavern but we didn’t hear any noise from the restaurant. The location is awesome for walking to shops and restaurants.. right in the heart of Main Street area. The parking is a little tight, but we were happy to have a secured spot during a busy holiday week. The steps going up to the rental are also a little steep so may not be ideal for someone with mobility issues. Loved our stay and hope to stay again sometime!

    What a great property! This property was right in the heart of downtown Highlands. We were above the Highland Tavern, which at first I was worried about noise, but the insulation blocked most of the noise and the bathroom fan covered up the rest. Plus, the tavern shuts down early so it was a non-issue. We had rain showers and this property was so convenient because we could pop in and out to avoid the showers. The place was clean and perfect layout. The host was very nice and had snacks and drinks available in fridge for us for the weekend. We could not have asked for anything more and hope to return soon.

    I cannot say enough about how great this property is and how well appointed the amenities are in this gorgeous home away from home! The furnishings are beautiful and comfortable. The property is clean and neat. Having basic groceries, spices and appliances is definitely ramped up here to a level of luxury that you have to see to believe. We were provided with foods and beverages that made our stay so easy and so tasty. The location is right in the heart of downtown and steps away from excellent dining and shopping. I'm already looking forward to our next stay! Thank you!

    We absolutely adore this property and its owner, David, and have stayed here so many times over the years that we’ve truly lost count. The location, the property itself, and its gracious and hospitable owner truly make this rental property the very best we’ve ever experienced on VRBO (or through other service). It’s become a very special place for our family and I know it will be the same for yours.
