The house was wonderful for our family. It’s in a perfect location, mere minutes from Main St. The oversized lot and outdoor spaces were extremely well maintained and provided the perfect setting to enjoy the cool summer mornings and evenings. Our younger children loved playing outside. The house is quintessential, in town Highlands. We will certainly seek to stay here again.
