"The perfect getaway house for a big group. We had 13 people in our group and this house was perfect for us! Great size with large rooms. The main area is spacious and a great gathering spot.

Great place to stay for a large group
Very nice place and very clean. The only problem is it stayed cold downstairs…about 63 degrees. The upstairs thermostat did not seem to control it, as I was told.

Lots of room, but tired
Pros: 1-close to town 2- very clean 3- modern bathrooms 4- comfortable beds 5-lots of space and privacy for multiple families 6-real estate company very reponsive and friendly 7-well equipped kitchen Cons: 1- furnishings are run down (kitchen cabinet door fell off, couldn't pull out trash can in kitchen cabinet) 2-porch cushions are old and ratty and there isn't enough seating out there 3-house doesn't have a view. It is in the woods surrounded by trees... nice and private, but you can't really see the mountains. Maybe in the winter? 4-ZERO wifi. It's not that it is slow, it does NOT exist. The IT guy came out and told us the way this house is wired it will always be a problem. We still had a great time. Could be a great home with some TLC.

True Southern Hospitality
The management company was very quick in response and helped with recourses that we wanted. They allowed me in early to prepare before the guests arrived. When the guests left some items were left behind so they contacted us to see how we would like to handle said items. Very friendly and eager to accommodate.

House was perfect for my husband’s 40th. Slept 14 adults comfortably and had great living/communal space. I would recommend it if you want something spacious close to town!

Great weekend! Would go again!
We throughly enjoyed our stay at BlackBerry lane! Beautiful home with a fantastic view, amazing screened porch, large open common area with large dining room table, and downstairs game room for kids to play in! We loved that it was convenient to the towns of Highlands and Cashiers and really enjoyed the coffee shops and boutiques in both towns! The house was clean and ready for us when we arrived and the staff was easy to communicate with us and gave clear check-in and check-out instructions. Thanks for a great trip and Happy New Year!

Great house and location
We had a fabulous stay in highlands exploring local water falls, swimming holes, visiting the town, renting a boat on lake glenville and even going tubing on deep creek in Bryson city. The location was great, a few minutes to highlands and 15 min to Cashiers. We traveled with 3 families and we all fit comfortably in BlackBerry. Definitely recommend.

We had a great 3 generation family vacation.
We had a great 3 generation family vacation. We found something for everyone- from zip lining at Highland Aerial Park to shopping in Highlands to visiting Cashiers to hiking Yellow Mountain and the Bartram trail. The BlackBerry fit our needs for a family of 11. Everyone had room to gather- and room to separate. We especially enjoyed hanging out on the screened porch and being able to all sit together for meals at the massive dining table. We were having trouble finding a house that matched our needs. Alicen recommended the Blackberry, which wasn’t showing up in our results as we were searching Sat to Sat or Sun to Sun. She asked if we could make it work for Fri to Fri- and voila! Great house for our 3 generation gathering!

Perfect Highlands Getaway
My husband and I stayed here with our family including 3 adult daughters and one son-in-law as well as two babies under 2. The house was absolutely perfect! The bottom floor was perfect for our daughter with her husband and babies. The master suite was great for my husband and me and the top floor housed the rest. We had plenty of room to gather and really enjoyed the wooded property. One of the best houses that we’ve stayed in.

memorial day getaway
We enjoyed the location and the space was nice and very close to downtown highlands. The coffee pot was broken, the fireplace was (gas inside) only worked for a few hours after several attempts to get in touch with the property manager and the basement was not as clean as I would have liked. There were bugs/ants everywhere and I would consider the downstairs master more equipped for children than adults.
