WE DO NOT ACCEPT AMEX

This Rent In Highlands vacation rental home has a strict NO PET policy. Failure to adhere to this policy will result in a $1000.00 fine.

Only adults (25 years old and older) may reserve this property and an adult must occupy the property at all times.

This home has exterior cameras for security purposes.

Located above Highlands Country Club on Hudson Road, this cherished family cottage exudes old highlands charm. Lovely grounds and old stone work frames this original 1935 cottage which is adorned with wormy chestnut, chunky stone and school house windows.

Main Level:
The main level features three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The kitchen is charming with farmhouse cabinets, hardwood floors, and butcher block countertops, evoking a nostalgic, vintage feel. Each bedroom has its own unique décor, adding to the home's vintage charm. The large screened porch is perfect for relaxing or dining al fresco, providing ample space to enjoy the outdoors in comfort.

Upper Level:
The upper level hosts a King suite with an ensuite bathroom, complete with a wood-burning fireplace. This private retreat provides an ideal space for relaxation and offers a cozy, secluded feel for those seeking extra privacy.

Outdoor Spaces:
Step inside the home through a welcoming screened-in porch, thoughtfully furnished with cozy seating that perfectly reflects the charm and character of Highlands. Just off the kitchen, the front patio offers another inviting outdoor space—featuring a gas grill, a firepit for cool mountain evenings, and a classic iron patio set, ideal for casual dining or simply enjoying the fresh air.

Recently added by the owners is an electric vehicle charging station for guests to use free of charge!

Owner's Note: We enjoy the beautiful mountain views and fabulous sunsets from the big screened-in porch.  It is a very private and quiet retreat with mature trees and shrubs surrounding the house.  It is easily accessible with plenty of parking and only a 5-7 minute drive to town.  The interior wormy chestnut paneled walls and three stone fireplaces are reminiscent of another era.  We believe you will fall in love with Laurelwood too.

What our guests are saying...

"Highlands Getaway. We rented this house with another couple, and between us we have 3 children under 2. The house was perfect! The house had plenty of space, a beautiful fireplace and a wonderful screened in porch. The location is second to none. A short 5 minute drive to town makes the house an ideal location for anyone who wants to spend time in Highlands. Well be back!" - Rent In Highlands Vacation Rental Guest, Joe

Peaceful Weekend Getaway

Three old college friends enjoyed being together at Laurelwood for a weekend reunion. We were able to relax and reminisce in comfort, and enjoy the beauty of the mountains at the same time. The house met our needs; each of us had our own room with a comfortable bed; there were three baths, and a well-stocked kitchen so we could eat in as we chose and also enjoy the dining opportunities of Highlands for dinner. It all ended too soon.

Like staying at your wealthy friend’s mountain home

Laurelwood was a pleasure for all, comfortable beds and chairs, big rock fireplaces, well equipped kitchen, elegant dining room, lamps where you need them, custom curtains and bedding -our interior designer friend recognized some pieces from a well respected interior designer in Highlands.

Thanksgiving Shangrila!

I have been to Highlands many times through the years, staying in different places. This property was absolutely amazing. The decor was fantastic. It was totally stocked in the kitchen. The screened in porch was divine! Communication back-and-forth from the renter Association to us was so helpful. We would really like to visit again in the very near future! The decor was even more beautiful in person than it was in the photographs!

Highlands Birthday Celebration

We enjoyed our stay at Laurelwood so much. 10 minutes from town, it’s a beautiful home. Even though we were so close to downtown, it seemed miles away. The front porch was our favorite spot, and spent most of our time there. Would definitely stay again!

Cozy Cottage in the Highlands close to town

We rented this house in July. It was very charming and cozy. House is a short drive to town. Note: not much of a view from the house. Would rent it again if so desired.
