Above a Wine Shoppe...Downtown Highlands!

Walk anywhere!! In-Town Property.


I can't think of a better place to be than Highlands, NC. The only thing better is a location with the ability to walk everywhere in town and be above a Wine Shoppe! You will access to our Main St. facing front yard with fire pit, tables and chairs. The end to a perfect evening is having a glass of wine while sitting by the fire pit.

Our apartment was remodeled in 2017. Most of the work was done by my Father (a retired Highlands builder). We wanted to keep the characteristics of Highlands but offer modern amenities. Our property is #1 on the Historical Registry for Highlands.

Had our second great stay in the apartment above the Wine Shoppe in Highlands. The apartment had everything we needed and is in a great location. Really nice to be able to pop downstairs and try some great wines.

Great place!
Super convenient to downtown Highlands, yet very private. It has a nice private upper level patio nicely shaded by trees, a nice kitchen and breakfast area, Master bedroom, bathroom, a large sitting room/den, and closets. TV in den and master bedroom. Everything needed was there. I'll be back!

Relaxing time in Highlands
Excellent location just a few steps from downtown. Quiet. Very clean and well appointed. Can park in the wine store parking lot. While no big deal for us, be aware no washer dryer in the apartment.

HIGHLANDS GETAWAY - ABOVE THE WINE SHOPPE!
We stayed in a VRBO rental above the Wine Shoppe in downtown Highlands. The property was neat and clean. Conveniently located to everything that we wanted to do...shops, restaurants within walking distance. Had a great time...plan to return again...left the property spotless and clean....

Great location and very roomy
The location of this property was perfect for a weekend in Highlands - walking distance from shops and restaurants. It was a short drive to good hiking trails. The wine shop below was great; there was a lot of nice outdoor seating there.

Just the right size and close to everything
Great property for a couple. Right on the main street with easy walking access to the downtown shops and restaurants. Be aware there are a number of steps leading up to the apartment, which was not a problem for us, but should be noted. The kitchen is very well equipped. The bed super comfortable. Streaming TV was a little quirky but worked. All-in-all, this property is a good value and we would stay again.

Live Like a Local
I’ve been coming to my family’s house outside of Highlands off Buck Creek Rd for over 30 years but this year I needed to not be at the house for a few days and this VRBO popped up right away and could not have been more perfect! It is upstairs over my favorite place in town, The Highlands Wine Shoppe, (need I say more?), right on Main Street, and had everything I could possibly need to relax and live in town almost like a local! The Wine Shoppe folks are the best and the apartment had all the extras! I’m so grateful to have found this hidden jewel and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a charming oasis in a perfect location to enjoy all the magic that is downtown Highlands!

This is a great place to stay in Highlands. On Main Street so you can walk to anywhere in town. The apartment is so comfortable and roomy and has everything you will need. My second time staying here and will definitely come back. So much fun sitting around the fire pit on the lawn. The owners, Stephanie and Steve are wonderful and everyone in the Wine Shop is so nice and helpful. A top recommendation, you will love it.
