About This Home

As of May 2025

Take a step back in time and come see the original Honeymoon Cottage! Although it has been tastefully remodeled to meet today's standards, the charm and ambiance are still there. Nestled among the original golfers' cottages at Highlands Country Club, you are only steps away from all Club activities. This cottage could function as a private office, an in-law suite or simply as an overflow guest bedroom. The main room has a stone wood burning fireplace with shiplap walls, vaulted ceilings and beautiful hardwood floors. The compact yet functional kitchen features a built-in convection microwave and a small refrigerator. There is a patio in the back where enjoying a cocktail in the evening would be enjoyable. This property is located on the Atlanta side of Highlands. Only several minutes from downtown Highlands are numerous shopping boutiques, fine dining restaurants and many other activities available. The Highlands/Cashiers Performing Arts Center, the Bascom Gallery, the Highlands Nature Center, the Highlands Rec Center and the Highlands Ice Skating Rink each offer various activities on a year-round basis.
