Judge's Hilltop

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Say hello to your own private wooded escape and spoil the whole family with a stay at Judge's Hilltop, a four-bedroom home with all feels of a rustic cabin yet all of the modern comforts you need for a comfortable stay. Start each morning on a tasty note and brew a pot of coffee, or keep it simple with the Keurig! While you are in the spacious kitchen, take advantage of the gas range, ample utensils, and expansive countertops to prepare a full breakfast for the gang before a full day of adventure. During warmer times of the year, the furnished wraparound deck will be just the place to let go and reminisce with loved ones while sipping a glass of wine. If you want a bit more privacy, the gazebo and other sitting areas on the property will give you that sweet serenity and quiet that is much-needed to rest and recharge. If indoor entertainment is what you are after, the poker table in the loft and TV in the living area have you covered!

Lovely home nestled in the woods
We had a delightful stay at this home that is nestled among the trees but right off the main road. It was quiet and peaceful. The deck is a great place to sit and relax. Lots of beds and living room was very comfortable. Far enough out of Highlands to avoid the crowds but close enough to get to town easily.
