Highland Meadows Resort

We had the most wonderful time staying at the highland meadows. Our children thought it was the coolest place ever! We saw deer and wild turkeys every morning and it was so quiet and peaceful. The house was clean and inviting. We will absolutely be planning another vacation to stay again in the near future. We were right in town, yet felt so far away. Everything we needed was so close by.

The Ponderosa Cabin (Cabin #1) is a gem at Highland Meadows Resort. We stayed for two nights and wished we could have stayed for a week. The cabin has everything you could ask for: a fully stocked kitchen, refrigerator and microwave, a large bedroom with a very comfortable bed and spacious closet, a roomy living room with a couch that doubles as a pullout bed, great shower, a beautiful, very quiet location, laundry (soap provided!) and wildlife (deer, turkeys, a rabbit or two) you can view out the front window. The bedroom has a sliding glass door to access fresh air and the rear of the cabin. The heating/cooling is very easy to operate. Two televisions (living space & bedroom) were excellent with many cable channel to choose from. The cabin comes with a hammock, picnic table, and barbecue. The host communicated with us exceptionally well, leaving snacks to nibble on upon arrival. The best thing we can say is that we were not wanting anything. We rate this property 20 stars.

My husband and I booked one of the Tipi’s through AirBNB and absolutely loved our stay at Highland Meadows Resort. The spot was close enough to get a beautiful sunset overlooking the badlands SW area (Sheep Mountain Overlook) and the sky cleared so we could relax to the view of thousands of stars before bed. Robyn made sure we felt welcome and had access to essentials, plus the bathroom, common areas and Tipi were absolutely spotless.

This was our second stay at Highland meadows and found equally as enjoyab as our last visit the room and bathroom are completely updated with all the modern conveniences. We especially appreciated all the different coffee options. We made quick work of the snack basket too which is such a nice welcome gift. Thank you. I have only good things to say about the cabin. I love the views from the windows, the comfortable bed, the well sstocked kitchen and bath.....everything. The only thing I would add would be a full length mirror somewhere. Thank you so much for hosting us in this beautiful site.

WINTER REVIEW:
I was so sad to give this a 3 star.... We were so excited to visit this establishment for a few days and get a dip in the hot springs. As you can see by the pictures the decor was so pretty and the extra little items they had. The temp. outside was about 42 so we couldn't wait to get into a nice cozy room. BOY were we surprised when we walked in at 3:30 into a FREEZING room. The temperature in the room was 62. In the handbook it stated the cabin will be set at 72 the day of your visit it was set at 62. We had to turn it up to 72. It took so long to warm up in there that we had to leave to get warm. Oh and there is baseboard heaters but it stated you are NOT allowed to use it. Now here's the kicker the night before we were to leave at 1:30 am
(now mind you who is on their email at that time since you have to get up early to ck out) the email stated " With temperatures dropping, please feel free to supplement with baseboard heat if needed." ARE FREAKING KIDDING ME!! They work!!!! If we would've known that, we would have turn them on sooner since it was so cold we had to wear our coats and shoes until we went to bed that 1st day. Then never mind if you got up in the middle of the night.... YOU will FREEZE there's no heat in there.... OH wait there's a baseboard heater that we aren't allowed to use. The cabin mine room finally up to 72 by morning. So needless to say this romantic weekend was terrible at the cabin. I should've just book with an hotel at least I would've had heat! Sooo I your okay with not having heat in the winter then go for it... for the most part it was a clean place. It was dusty under the microwave and other places but all in all it looked very clean. I would probably recommend this place for warmer weather. I won't give it no thumbs up because I was so sad and disappointed for my husband surprised get away. What a let down!
