Feels like home
We've had the good fortune of spending several Thanksgivings at On the Rocks and it truly did feel like "coming home" as soon as we walked in the door. It is a beautifully appointed home, while still being warm and inviting. We love that the master suite is upstairs which affords privacy.There are two lovely bedrooms on the main level and a great play room/bedroom and bath on the ground level. The kitchen is better stocked than ours is -- I have prepared Thanksgiving dinners there for several years and have not needed anything that wasn't right at my fingertips. The owner is wonderful to deal with, helpful and accommodating. Although I gave "Communication with property manager" 5 stars, I'm not sure there is an active property manager for On the Rocks. I did try to ask VRBO a question prior to our visit but did not receive a response. Dealing with Terry, the owner, has been a pleasant experience. I could go on and on about this special home but you need to experience it for yourselves. I predict anyone who takes advantage of the hammock on the lower-level porch, with the sounds of the creek below, will be hooked!
Girlfriends Get Away
Wow! What a beautiful property. So dang cozy especially when it was 21*f outside. All supplies included, even some dry condiments. Little things like dish soap, trash bags, toilet paper were all supplied (unlike most vacation rentals). The bedrooms, the views all spectacular. Learning to play pool was fun and having roaring fires every night was so nice. Bringing my family back next time. Thank you for hosting our memorable time.
Thank you for such a glowing review! Please return to "ON THE ROCKS"!!!!
Heaven on Earth
This is our second stay at this property. So many reasons to keep coming back. Although it rained our entire stay, we made the best of it! The house has games, puzzles, a card table and a pool/ping pong table that kept our kids entertained. The property is clean and stocked with all immediate necessities. The creek in the backyard is always our favorite spot. The rain helped it to really show out this year. Thanks for sharing your home with our family. Hope to see you next year.
Repeat travellers are our best advertisement. Thank you for such a raved review! We work hard to make "On-The-Rocks" a return always destination!
Tucked back & tranquil
Everything was very easy & the house is relaxed but well appointed & pretty. The upstairs master suite was so quaint! The basement level is a great game room with the rushing water just outside. Perfect for a family or couples as it allows everyone space with some wonderful common areas! You can't beat being able to hear the creek as you sit on the gorgeous screened porch. I was expecting this house to be quite isolated & initially was worried about noise as there are other homes around but, we had no issues with that at all. We really enjoyed our time here!
Idyllic!
Just a beautifully furnished home in a perfect location. Feels secluded (we loved the fire pit and the creek), yet so close to downtown Highlands. Instructions were very clear. Wonderful experience and we hope to come again soon.
The very best!
Absolutely love this spot. My mom has stayed here before but this was my first time here and we are going back this summer. Cannot say enough great things about this house.
