Just bring your suitcase and toothbrush, and enjoy the vacation of a lifetime. Read the traveler reviews below and see for yourself!

Upstairs is a second Master Suite with a King-sized bed and its own luxurious private bathroom.
A short walk down the hill marked with stepping stones will bring you to the lower deck where a hot tub awaits just above the bank of the creek, overlooking the water and the firepit area that sits below.

When we need a breal from "the city" our favorite place is the Highlands, NC location. Accidentally & Thankfully we found a place called Mill Creek Cottage - Heinrich. Such a beautiful home in a beautiful setting, you can't beleive you're only two blocks from Main Street.Savor the soothing sounds of the creek while thinking the view is from a treehouseand enjoy the relaxation as it grows each day! Wow!!

Thank you for sharing such a special place. We are leaving with hearts that are rested and full!Can't wait for a return trip!!!

We loved the coziness and convenience of this cabin, but what ultimately sold our children was the amazing creekside area! They played for hours.

VRBO Review - "Convenient Location and Lovely setting"

We loved everything about this place. The location was perfect — walkable to town — and the setting was quiet and peaceful. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful, as always!

by Shannon N.

This was a beautiful home, located only blocks from town. I was able to walk to shops several times without driving my car during the daytime. The home was clean and cozy and my family loved it so very much. We hope to stay here again! I highly recommend this rental and the rental agency!

Review from Mary

Fantastic! My family and I thoroughly enjoy the beauty of the property and the decor of the cottage; the amenities provided, the spacious areas for meals, conversations, playing board games and just relaxing. My great niece and nephew refer to the lawn down on Mill Creek as the Magic Garden. The walk to town location makes it ideal for going shopping and/or to lunch and dinner at the many excellent restaurants available. Waking up to the sounds of birds chirping and the water babbling down Mill Creek while looking out at the beauty of the trees and natural shrubs is simply wonderful.David and Lori Bee and the staff in the Highlands Vacation Rentals office have always been most accommodating when it comes to scheduling our vacation,. I recommend them to friends who ask about short-term rentals in Highlands.

Best Highlands location ever! This cottage is in an amazing location. It is only a very short walk to town and restaurants, but you feel like you are in the woods when you are at the cottage. The cottage is exactly as advertised. It is wonderfully stocked and very nicely furnished. Both master baths are very nice. The kitchen is more spacious than most, and the house appears to have been renovated in the not-too-distant past. he screened in deck is amazing, we enjoyed the spa, and adjacent creek adds to the ambiance. There are also hiking trails nearby -- you can take an easy hike all the way to Mirror lake. We have been to Highlands many times, and this is clearly our favorite location.

The decor was very similar to our home on Lake Lanier. So, it was easy to immediately relax and enjoy the cozy environment. Our host/hostess anticipated our every need. A very delightful experience. Thank you!We arrived after a light snow. Marie met us at the property. She grabbed a snow shovel and cleared the entry as best she could. Then she left and purchased salt granules to melt the snow. Very responsive and cheerful to our every need. Excellent experience!

It was a very comfortable house. We enjoyed the front porch, back porch, grilling & dinning in, and building a fire by the creek. The location was very nice to be secluded in a mountain setting a couple of blocks off Main Street.Everyone at HVR was very responsive & helpful.

We absolutely loved our stay at Mill Creek Cottage. The location was perfectly situated within walking distance of downtown. The cottage was warm and cozy and the amenities were very nice. We loved the hot tub and fire pit and the creek that ran behind the house. We would definitely book this house again and we will refer our friends!Mindy was very nice to work with. She texted me before we arrived and made sure we knew how to check-in.
