We had a wonderful time in Highlands this trip. This is our second trip for Bear Shadow and I expect it to become a yearly trip. The location were perfect and in close proximity to everything. The property was lovely as was the neighborhood. We had a seamless check in and Janet was amazing to work with. Thank you for letting us stay!

Our stay at this property was perfect...from the fresh pound cake to the gorgeous flowers that our host provided. The property was very clean and so close to downtown Highlands. Janet was incredible to work with and if we had any questions, she responded quickly,. Will definitely be back. A great girls weekend.

We are frequent visitors of Highlands and I cannot say enough good things about this house. It is a great location, pictures on listing are representative of the property, and all of the small touches make the house one of our all-time favorites. From the moment we walked in, everything was perfect. Even prior to arrival, Janet made sure we had everything we needed. We will most definitely be back!
Beautiful home in quite neighborhood. But for those with pet allergies beware as owners of house has dogs.
