Great mountain home
Had a great stay in Scaly Mountain! Will definitely be back again. Worth noting, the route to Highlands from the house is closed due to the hurricane washing out the road. Apparently it’ll be fixed in January. Not a huge issue though, just have to go the long way

Nice time despite Helene
We were very happy to be up high in the beautiful woods! Every window has a forest view which is very peaceful. We arrived before Hurricane Helene. The eyewall passed right over us at night with lots of rain and wind. No damage to our house and we Never lost power! Linda and Bill came and checked on us the next day. They were very helpful in keeping us up to date on road conditions and internet and stores that were open. We enjoyed our daily walks in the neighborhood and the beautiful waterfall close to our house. Even though we didnt get to do all we had planned, we had a wonderful time right at our place, playing games, cooking, and having a great family time together! We would love to come back!

This is my second stay at this property. As before everything was terrific. The photos highlight how incredible the home is. In person the home just feels comfortable. There are so many places to relax and spread out. I'll definitely be returning. And Linda is super communicative if anything arrises. If you are looking for a getaway in the woods and a place to relax this should be high on your list.

Love NestleInn
NestleInn is a wonderful property where every need is provided for. It is lovely and secluded for peace and rest, yet a short drive into Highlands and other area towns. It is by far the most comfortable house we've stayed in for an extended vacation. The decor is beautiful, the beds are comfortable, the kitchen well equipped and several good outdoor spaces to relax. Linda and Bill tend to every detail and communication was excellent. Anyone thinking of booking needs to do it. You will not be sorry!

Peaceful Mountain Getaway
This was our first time at NestleInn and we loved our time there! The house was easy to find (roads were not scary), not far from town, and had so many amenities. We loved our dinners on the patio and our snacks by the fire pit each evening as we awaited firefly sightings (a first for us Floridians). From the lovely bedding to the well stocked bathrooms, the attention to detail is impressive. The house is extremely well maintained and the thoughtfulness of Linda and Bill is evident throughout. We look forward to a return visit!

Beautiful Home in a Lovely Setting
We had a wonderful stay at the NestleInn. The house was beautiful, updated, well-stocked, and very clean. Close to activities and only about 20 minutes drive to Highlands. Easiest check in we’ve ever had at a rental home and excellent communication from the owner. Would absolutely stay there again.

Nicely updated, well appointed, comfortable property...
High end finishes, fixtures and decor. Very nice and comfortable home. Nice bedding, excellent bathrooms. Kitchen is well equipped. Easy drive to Highlands area. One of the best information / local guide packets I have ever seen in a rental property. So many things to do in the area. I recommend lunch at Wild Thymes Gourmet in Highlands. Glen Falls hike is beautiful.

Great stay, will be back
This was a perfect place for us, 2 couples. The host was very kind and accommodating. Check in and check out could not have been easier. We enjoyed the fire pit, playing with the various board games, the gas fire place, and the corn hole. The location is great, you aren’t far at all from downtown highlands and the trails this area has to offer. The house was clean and I was impressed by the interior, the bathrooms were luxurious (heated floors, nice showers, and sinks) and beds were huge and comfortable. This was a fantastic stay especially for the price, hopefully we will be able to come back in the fall!

Romantic Stay
Nothing says 'romance' like a cozy house tucked in the mountains, cold nights, warm fires, cuddly throws, and a whisp of snow! This was our first stay during the winter months, and it may well have been our best visit to the property yet. It was extremely cold both day and night, and the fire pit was something we looked forward to every evening, as well as a fire inside. The house offers every convenience, but the heated bathroom floors may have been our favorite one! We've enjoyed numerous visits at Nestle Inn and have never been disappointed. The only thing that's changed from visit to visit is how much more we look forward to coming back each time. A special 'thank you' to our amazing hosts, Linda and Bill!

Quiet Escape
This place was great! It was beautifully decorated with everything you could possibly need, both inside and outside! It is located down a very quiet, private drive which instantly makes you feel on vacation. The beautiful fire pit was great for relaxing after our hike and walk around the Highlands. The beds were so comfortable - I think we got the best sleep we’ve had in months! Linda was so helpful and quick to respond. We can’t wait to go back!

A 'Must Stay' Destination
My wife and I just returned from our third stay at NestleInn, and we have already confirmed our next reservation! The house is absolutely wonderful. It is extremely well appointed and offers all of the modern comforts and amenities one would expect to find in a property of this caliber. From heated bathroom floors, massive throws, and a kitchen outfitted for a chef, to comfortable lounge furniture (both inside and out), cozy gas firepit, and indoor gas fireplace... NestleInn provides the quintessential mountain experience. We especially look forward to breakfast on the back deck with that early morning cup of coffee to help take the chill out of a crisp fall morning. The covered front deck is absolutely perfect for a romantic dinner or evening cocktail. If you're planning on traveling to the high country, NestleInn is a 'must stay' destination!

Awesome Property
Where to begin. The home is stunning for a VRBO rental property. The pictures are exactly defining the home. The bathrooms have heated floors. There is an abundance of plates, cups, and glasses. The outside area was so nice to have evening drinks. The master bed was firm but comfortable. The linens were above average. In all the years of our travels we have never had a nicer place to stay. Linda is a perfect host. She knows the area and always responded in a short time. This was a 10-10 stay.

Perfect stay!
We loved our time at NestleInn. Linda was so responsive before our trip. She answered all of my questions, and had a super-thorough welcome packet for the house that covered everything we needed to know. Check-in was smooth, and Linda even made sure to leave the lights on for us in case we were late! The house itself is fantastic- we loved the porches (especially the swings and ring game!) and common areas. The kitchen is so well equipped- everything we needed for our meals and desserts was there. We loved the cinnamon rolls Linda left us- we saved them for our last morning and had a quiet breakfast enjoying the house for our last few hours. The location was also perfect- we felt super close to Highlands, but were far enough away to really feel “away from it all”. Thank you again, we’re already planning our next visit!

Nestle Inn - A Perfect Retreat!
We absolutely loved our mountain getaway to the Highland at NestleInn. Tucked away on quiet and serene Scaly Mtn this home is beautifully decorated with cozy bedding, warm fireplace and a firepit, and plenty of porch space for rocking, reading, and relaxing. The hosts Linda and Bill left the lights on for us when we arrived, cinnamon rolls and coffee for breakfast, and were a text away of we needed anything. We will be back. Our favorite place in the mountains so far!

Oh my goodness! This place is just amazing! We went for a 3 day weekend with my baby and toddler and it was perfect. The location is amazing as it’s a super quick trip into highlands and not far from Clayton. The house was newly decorated, spotless and cozy! The beds and sheets were sooooo comfortable!!! We happened to visit on a really cold weekend but the floors in the master bath were heated which was a so nice! Linda was one of the best hosts- super responsive and hospitable! Came over twice to help me with something! The property was beautiful and you can even walk down to s pretty waterfall around the corner. I could go on! We would definitely stay here again.
