Reviews
Blake H.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Carolina Cottage! It felt like home away from home. Very spacious and inviting. The kitchen had everything we could need. Decor is beautiful and beds were comfortable. Fenced in backyard was a huge plus for our dog. Location was perfect. Short drive to downtown Highlands and easy proximity to lots of outdoor activities. We hiked Whiteside Mountian as well as Gorges State Park during our stay. All you could want or ask for in a vacation rental.
