About the host
Hosted by Matthew and Alexandra
We have a passion for traveling and adventuring and just could not seem to stop booking trips to Highlands, NC. We recently purchased our tiny cottage, which we affectionately call "Carolina Pines."
We call ourselves the "Nomadic Lifestylers" - Find us on Insta, where we document all of our traveling and adventuring, whether its at home in Louisiana or at our second home in Highlands.

Why they chose this property
While we're based out of Louisiana, we live about a week out of every month in our cozy cottage. While in Highlands, we work remotely and try to live a balanced lifestyle, with hiking and all things outdoors.
One of the best parts of Highlands is being outside in the pure crisp mountain air. Carolina Pines allows you to take full advantage of being outside being 1/4 mile from the town center. In addition to being in such close proximity to the town center, you are also just a stones throw from many beautiful hikes and waterfalls, including Highland's beautiful Biological Station and Nature Center which is only a 4 minute walk from Carolina Pines!
