Highland B&B was perfect overnight stop for my business in town. The property is beautifully restored and owner is very helpful. Great alternative to big box hotels for a memorable stay and great value. Highly recommend.

We'd usually stayed a local motels just for the convenience, but those were unexpectedly out of our price range this time, so we were delighted to find this B&B in a historic home, in the neighborhood where one of us had grown up. Being in town made it more convenient than the motels which are near the interstate west of town. We worried about a shared rather than a private bath, but there was no problem as there was only one other bedroom occupied and our schedules did not "collide."

Wonderful gem

Highland B&B was beyond my highest expectations. Shane is not only a gracious host but an historian knowing all about the building and the area. Tons of different breakfast options and the rooms are all so different and full of character. The porch is wonderful in nice weather for morning coffee (also provided). Highly recommended and I can’t wait to come back!

The house was very nice and clean and safe for me and my daughter during our stay. It was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. Would definitely recommend to anyone going to the area and pricing is very competitive with hotels in the area.

Great experience. i had never stayed in a b&b prior, so it was unusual (for me) that there isn't a 'front desk'. However, it was great! i had access to the kitchen and other rooms of the house. only 1 other guest while i was there and we were on opposite ends of the house. Only kind of negative was that my room was accessed from the porch...great for privacy, but it meant if i needed anything i had to go outside and enter through the main entry door to the house. no big deal, but the storm door and the main door have no 'clutch' to stop them from fying open and hitting the radiator...

We enjoyed the rustic character of the old structure at Highland. The host was very helpful and the room was private and very clean. Some of the floors were slightly cold due to the January weather but otherwise everything was great!

Beautiful property in a great neighborhood. This is located in a quaint neighborhood with tall trees and gardens. The service was fantastic and personal. Everything was so clean and well kept. This property is owned and run by a mother son team. Shane came out and helped me unload my motorcycle from my trailer. You will find a lot of home cooked food in the refrigerator. I was on a business trip and was only looking for a place to sleep. This place turned out to be a pleasant surprise.

This historic home was adorable and didn't feel too 'stuffy'. There was old-timey furniture, but you could actually use it, and all the right modern comforts were still there (bathroom, mattress, a/c, etc). Shane was attentive and made our late evening check-in easy. Just FYI, not for those with accessibility/mobility issues. Also, ignore Expedia trying to charge extra for breakfast-- it is provided. We definitely would stay here again.
