Highlands is where Jeremy fell in love with the Upstate and it is so special to us as a couple because it's where we love to hike or drive up and spend a free afternoon. There are so many things to do, whatever you're interested in, so our hope is that this can be a beautiful weekend getaway and hopefully a new favorite place for you as well.
Please see some of the things below to enjoy.
The root vegetable soup is a new favorite and so cozy!
Whether it's dinner or brunch, Oak is the perfect place for a cozy dinner.
For all of those 21 and over, we can't recommend a Tequila Hot Toddy from the Oak bar enough!
