Ron, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We visit the Highlands often, and we were happy to find Trailborn as another option. The property is large and quiet, yet still close to town. It is newly renovated and it is very cute and fresh. The outdoor common space was comfortable and fun. My kids enjoyed playing corn hole.

David, 3-night trip

Very clean and friendly. Room was comfortable but we would have liked a chair to sit on as well as the wall bench provided.
Katherine, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We really enjoyed our visit. The hotel was comfortable and quiet. Relaxing on the deck in the morning and evening was wonderful. The desk staff was friendly and helpful. The only tiny issue was the quality of the facial and toilet tissue. Everything else was terrific!! The ambient music was such a nice surprise. It was and easy walk to get into town. We will return.
