Gorgeous listing—feels totally remote in the trees but only a 5 min drive from downtown! Recommend reading the listing carefully to ensure you’re prepared—would recommend 4W drive and there’s no TV. So long as you know both of those things (which we didn’t mind at all!) you’ll have a wonderful time. Annie is a lovely and responsive host!

We would 100% stay here again! Lunori is a 10/10 recommendation, so peaceful and beautifully decorated. The space is super clean and perfect for a couple’s getaway. Putting on the fire while cooking dinner and watching the rain was unbeatable. Thank you Annie for the stay!

We loved this place! Great for our family of four. Kids felt like they were in a treehouse. It was private, well thought-out, super peaceful too. We loved the common area with the fire pit and hammock too. We’d totally come back!

I absolutely loved staying here! This spot is so peaceful, quiet…and stylish! The drive into downtown Highlands is very short, so even though you can’t walk downtown it still feels very close to everything. I would love to stay here again.

Annie’s place is peaceful, private, and very comfortable. The directions and entry instructions were excellent. One of the best things is the location- it’s off the main road into downtown highlands making getting to restaurants etc easy and about a six minute drive. This is a very practical choice for a couple visiting the area that you will not regret. The price is very reasonable for all that this place has to offer. My wife and I will be back

Staying here was such a treat! The location was perfect and I enjoyed the peacefulness of the treehouse. Looking out the windows to only see trees was just what I needed! The place is beautiful and the host is superb! Can’t wait to stay here again!

Had a wonderful stay at Lunori Loft 1. It's on the back of the building (which will make sense once you get there) so it felt extra private and secluded. The landscaping was really impressive. It has a full kitchen (including a range) should you want to cook. We ate out all our meals but having that flexibility was nice in case we wanted to cook. A french press is provided for coffee which is what we use daily anyway so that was very familiar to us and preferable to pod machines. The space is compact and well designed, super clean, and exactly as described. Highlands is beautiful and downtown is literally a few minutes away by car, easy parking downtown so don't worry about not being "walking distance" to all the action on Main Street. We would stay here again!

This place is in a great location, really cool little area of these units in a common area with a fire pit. Really loved the whole vibe and the place was super clean well equipped, and very comfortable. I will definitely stay here again.

This 2 bedroom 2 bath place near highlands was really nice. It is only 5 minutes to town, but in the woods so you feel secluded. We loved all the floor to wall windows so you were surrounded by greenery. The decor was perfect and the beds were comfy and nice. We really loved everything about it and would go back. To note, there are 2 sets of stairs (about 20 in all) to get up to the place, so keep that in mind in case you are bringing heavy luggage.

This place was exactly what I needed to reset, relax, and find some clarity. The thoughtful design creates such a peaceful atmosphere. I loved starting each morning with French press coffee, staring up at the trees from the outside patio and inside from the comfy couch downstairs. No TV was perfect for truly disconnecting and slowing down. After going into town to grab a bite to eat and explore, I spent evenings at the loft reading/writing while listening to the tree frogs. There are beautiful hiking trails nearby. (I checked out Glen Falls). Annie was an amazing, thoughtful host, and was very fast to respond to any questions I had. I had some of the best sleep in years. The location offers the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience to Highlands, Cashiers, and a short road trip to the Smoky Mountains. This stay genuinely helped me relax and gain much-needed perspective. I will definitely be back! Thank you Annie!
