House in Highlands, NC

About this house rental
For those unfamiliar with the area, the quaint town of Highlands is a cultured little community, boasting an impressive list of gourmet dining alternatives, boutique shops, and gilded churches. At 4100 feet elevation, summer temperatures rarely reach 80 deg, the fall colors are spectacular, and ski slopes are not far away in winter. There are 20+ golf courses within a 30 min radius, and all manner of outdoor activities in the area to choose from (e.g. hiking, fishing, boating, canoeing, river rafting, zip-lining etc.). We are 1-1/2 hours from Ashville, NC / 1-1/2 hours from Greenville, SC / 2-1/2 hours from Atlanta, GA.
Minimum rental is two weeks (as dictated by the Club). Preview memberships with all the privileges can be negotiated separately with the Membership Director.
This is our home away from home. We consequently are a bit discerning about who we rent to and would wish to know something about prospective renters before committing. We are pet friendly to a point, though discourage cats and would wish that dogs not get on the furniture and are crated in the owner's absense. Accordingly, we will want to negotiate a pet deposit in advance.
As we are generally in residence late June through early October, we don't rent a lot ... but we often have availability in the late Spring, and early Fall (and the Fall colors are spectacular). The golf course & exercise facilities are generally open year round, though Club dining is only available May through October. Incidentally ... of the eight couples we have leased to, five have gone on to join the club and buy property in here. It's a special place! within a spectacular mountain community.
