Just beware in the summer the sewage tanks are on the outside area by restaurant and you can smell them in the heat!!
Donna, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful property only a few minutes from downtown Highlands. This historical property was refurbished with mid century design furnishings. The Oak Steakhouse is outstanding….well worth the splurge! The only small criticism is the carpets need cleaning and the bath amenities need checking before someone occupies a room. We will return!!!!!
Joann, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location and loved Oak Steakhouse onsite. Rooms were very noisy though.
Lindsey, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff was great. The restaurant is very nice but there is not a breakfast option during the week. They do have a few things you can grab in the check in area. Our room was missing soap and the bathroom was small but overall updated and very nice. The building is very old so a lot of steps, not very ADA friendly. Beautiful area.

2/10 Poor

Sick after stay due to previous flooding

My husband and I both left SO sick from the previously flooded rooms on the lower level ridge view rooms. Beyond sinus pain. It’s been a horrible week for one night stay.

Beautiful Mountain Views
Marcos, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very remote and quiet. Had nice area with fire pits. The Oak Steakhouse was good but very expensive. If you want a view stay on granite side. The ridge top side does not have a view. There were both a dehumidifier and another air purifier. Room was a bit damp.
