Lovely rustic cabin tucked just off the road. Feels very secluded yet still accessible to town!

We had such a lovely stay at this rustic cabin! It was the perfect space for a romantic getaway. The cabin felt secluded while being near downtown Highlands, and we loved spending cozy nights by the fire watching movies. The bed was also incredibly comfortable and cozy, even on a chilly night! We'd definitely recommend for other couples looking for a romantic mountain getaway and will definitely be back!

I've stayed at Melrose Cottage many times. It has a well decorated homey cabin feel, is in one of the best locations in Highlands and is always a pleasure to return to. Best of all, in the winter the wood burning fireplace is outstanding!
