Minimal modernization but more than adequate for a short stay. Missed having an outdoor porch or patio in order to relax and drink coffee in the mornings. We felt the water did not taste good so bought enough bottled water to last for the 3day stay. Bed was comfortable. Do wish the shower had hand rests to make it feel more safe.

We enjoyed our stay, the house was clean, the beds were comfortable and the property manager made the whole process a breeze. The kitchen was well supplied with everything to cook a meal. The house reminded us of our youth at our Grandparents house off of Flat Mountain Road. My only suggestion would be a larger hot water heater.

Clean, but musty and damp.

Our 2nd stay at The Sanctuary and we have already booked our 3rd for next year. We feel so at home with the cozy feeling, but spacious layout of the home. The grounds are so lovely and neighborhood is so enjoyable to walk. We made S’Mores in the fire pit and made puzzles at the kitchen table. It is so convenient to Main Street, which we love to stroll! The main road out of Rolling Acres is also very convenient to Cashiers, so centrally located. We adore Highlands and love that The Sanctuary has become our Home Away from Home.
Home away from home! We are so happy with the tucked away neighborhood and sprawling lawn with the beautiful tree lined backyard. So convenient to Main Street. The home is so cozy and happy!
