Our hosts were prompt and patiently responsive to all our questions. It was obvious that they took great care and pride in Highland House. On arrival the property manager, Annette, welcomed us with a tour of the house and necessary information. We found this really helpful. Everything about the property was immaculate, in good working order and the kitchen (indoor and out) was well equipped. All the beds were very comfortable! Our hosts had thought of many extra touches that were very appreciated; linens were high quality, so many thick towels supplied and cosy throws to wrap in on the cool mornings enjoying our coffee on the front veranda. Even a thoughtful welcome basket was waiting for us on the kitchen counter!
We will definitely be back!

From the moment we drove up the winding private driveway, we knew we were going to experience an outstanding holiday surrounded by nature within a luxurious space. Highland House did not disappoint and in fact, exceeded all of our expectations.
The incredible log home, landscaping, waterfall, outdoor kitchen, deck, fire pit, hot tub and large harvest table were outstanding amenities and were complimented by beautiful views in every direction.
Highland House is beautiful, spotlessly cleaned and welcoming. The beds and premium linens and furniture were comfortable and all new. The sauna, large screen TV and extensive kitchen amenities all worked together to enable our family to have an outstanding holiday.
David was a wonderful host. His communication was prompt and Annette, Highland House’s property manager provided us with a wonderful tour. Highland House is by far the best short-term rental we have experienced. It was our personal resort and we will be back!

We rented the cottage for part of March break family reunion (7 people). The house is beautiful and well equipped with everything you may need, and more. The owners went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and were very generous. We enjoyed our stay and hope to be back!
Thank you!

I am so glad I booked the Highland House for my family getaway. David was always reachable from beginning to end and made sure we had everything we needed to make our stay as pleasurable as possible. The log cabin is very inviting and comfortable not to mention super clean. The grounds at the Highland House are breathtaking and serene. Can’t wait to go back.

Second time staying at this amazing property. 6 of us gathered for our annual "girls" weekend and it could not have been better.
The property is stunningly beautiful, the cottage is cozy, spotlessly clean and has everything you could ever want or need in a rental. Sweet welcome basket, well stocked pantry, lovely towels and linens.... I could go on and on!
Annette was there to greet us and was helpful, kind and knowledgeable...she really is a gem!! David is an amazing host. He checked in on us upon arrival to be sure that everything was satisfactory. He was always just a text or phone call away to help with any questions we had during our stay.
We will definitely be back again next year.
Thanks David, Pauline and Annette for another fabulous stay at our new home away from home!

Only wonderful things to say about this home! From the stunning property, to the incredibly comfortable beds & bedding, to the outdoor space for grilling kings. All the little extras too were so helpful!... Welcome package, great quality showering supplies, games, kitchen amenities. The home was so roomy and cozy! Everything was as the ad showed, if not better actually! We went in the Fall so it was absolutely beautiful just to sit on the pitch and watch the kids play in the yard. Hot tub and sauna were a nice bonus for moms and dads! It was only a 10min drive in town for all shopping needs.
The host was great at communication and making us feel welcome! So happy we stayed and would definitely come back! Winter would be magical!

We are a group of golfers who get together each year for 4 days of golf. We have been doing it for over 20 years and this has been the best place for us to stay in all those years.
This was our 2nd year back in a row as it is the perfect venue for us. There was plenty of room and the amenities were of high quality and standards.
David was a great host who was incredibly responsive. He was also genuinely keen to ensure we experienced a comfortable and rewarding stay, which we did.
We will be back!

A perfect house and location. We enjoyed exploring the area, playing games in the garden, and just sitting and enjoying the beautiful garden and sounds of birds and crickets.
We have rented other houses in Canada and other countries - none have been so well equipped and maintained as this one.
We will be back next year!

We loved our second visit to Highland House as much as the first.
A wonderfully quiet spot to cocoon and enjoy some quality family time. Lots of outdoor spaces to gather or just find a quiet spot. We also enjoyed zucchini and cucumbers from the garden!

We had an amazing experience, and we couldn't ask for more! Price is very reasonable, considering the quality , space , location , cleanliness of the cottage, amenities. Annette is very awesome and David (owner) is very prompt and helpful to answer my questions about the property . Our vacation is short but very sweet. We were thinking of extending for two more days because we fell in love with the property and its neighboring town/vicinities. However, reality kicks in as we all need to go to the usual routine of working. We will certainly come back next time . Highly recommend this place to anyone.

Highland House is a wonderful place to stay. Secluded and surrounded by lush greenery, the property is tucked away from the sounds of the city. Inside, it's equipped with luxuries - super comfortable beds, rain shower heads, a sauna, a fully stocked kitchen, many different areas to lounge, and everything you need to enjoy time with friends + family. The location is also conveniently located ~15 minutes from grocery chains if you happen to forget anything. The pictures here don't do the space justice - it truly is an oasis. We already can't wait to return next summer.

Exceptional log cabin getaway
This log cabin and surrounding property are exceptional. Warm, friendly orientation to the property upon arrival and all the amenities one could ask for, plus more. The property owners went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Well maintained, very clean and in a great location - tucked quietly in the woods yet close to so much.

This was a fantastic stay for our group of 6. The house was very clean and well stocked with anything you forget to bring. Dish washer and laundry are a great bonus for any group. The house is pretty secluded, which is great. The large deck amongst the trees was a great place to spend the afternoon and the covered porch was key when a storm rolled in. Beds are pretty comfortable, but that's all personal preference. The only possible negative for this stay was the check-in tour, kinda awkward and unnecessary.
