The Grayling Cottage is an ideal location for those who want to be able walk around downtown and never get in the car. We walked to dinners, shopping, the Old Edwards Inn spa and even some nearby trails for a hike. There's a great restaurant/bar called The Stubborn Seed located directly across the street. The steps to get up to the house are steep and rugged and could be a challenge to people carrying large bags or heavy groceries, or for those who aren't mobile. There was some light road noise, but that's to be expected from a house so close to town. The house was comfortable and had all the basics for an enjoyable trip. We are giving the management company 3 stars for 2 reasons: First, I contacted them in advance to inquire if the house provided hair dryers so we would know whether or not to pack them. The email response stated that all bathrooms had hairdryers. (Just fyi, the room with the 2 twin beds did not. This isn't a huge deal but could've been avoided with better communication) Our second issue was that the gas fireplace would not operate while we were there. We followed instructions very carefully in the house manual but had no luck. We contacted management twice, but no one offered helpful information. We were told they would "try" and send someone out but never heard from them again and they didn't respond to a subsequent message. This was a big disappointment considering the weather was chilly. A fire would have made the weekend complete.

The cottage was so cute and had a great layout for our family. The deck was nice for morning coffee. The best part is the location! The cottage is an easy walk to everything in downtown Highlands.

We enjoyed the home’s location. It was so easy to walk to town. Everything was nice and clean. The bed sheets need to be replaced with new linens. The only other negative was . The 14 front steps made it very difficult to enter the house with luggage & groceries. Much too steep for older guests.

Grayling Cottage was perfect for our weekend in Highlands for a wedding. The house is walkable (<5 mins) to downtown. The downstairs area is nice and spacious. Everything was in great condition and very clean. Each of the rooms is comfortably sized. One thing to note, the house is up a few rock stairs, if that impacts anyone in your party. We would absolutely return to stay in the future.

My family enjoyed staying at this property together and the close proximity to everything in town! I think the pictures online were very accurate and we felt at home here. We loved turning on the fire place with the click of a button while we were there during an October cold front! There could stand to be a larger TV in the living room and the master shower floor is slightly uncomfortable on the feet but nothing that would prevent us from renting this property in the future!

The home is in an excellent location for walkability, but we were disappointed to find that the photos online made it look larger, brighter and did not look like it needed a paint and furniture refresh. It does. The deck is in a very worn state as well. Another thing we did not see in the listing, maybe we missed it, is that there is only one tv in the home. None of the bedrooms had tv’s. For the price you are paying and in other homes we have rented in Highlands, there are tv’s in all bedrooms. They tell you that the steps are not for the elderly or walking impaired and you need to heed that warning. We are neither, but they were quite inconvenient when you consider how many times you have to go up them to unload your car and then back and forth all day. They are stone “blocks” and are staggered in shapes and sizes so you have to be careful not to misstep.

Wonderful wedding weekend

The house had everything we needed or wanted. The bedrooms were very comfortable and all had private baths - awesome for three adult couples. Loved the front porch and spent a lot of time out there. It exceeded our expectation. It is soooo close to town, restaurants, shopping. Perfect spot, highly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay. The house is an easy walk to great shopping, restaurants, and hiking. The large kitchen table was a nice place to enjoy coffee and breakfast in the morning, and the fireplace was the perfect spot to cozy up with a glass of wine in the evening. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room in the house for all five of us to feel right at home. We’ll stay again the next time we’re in Highlands!
