Getting to the Mountains
Travel
How to fly in and where to stay. Highlands fills up on a spring weekend, so book early.
Getting Here
- Asheville Regional Airport (AVL)about 1 hr 30 min
- Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International (ATL)about 2 hr 30 min
- Greenville-Spartanburg International (GSP)about 2 hr 30 min
The last stretch into Highlands is a winding mountain drive — worth building a little extra time into your trip.
Where to Stay
The marks our recommendations.
We highly encourage guests to stay within walking distance of Old Edwards Inn & Spa as the Saturday shuttle will pick up and drop off there. There are very few (if any) rideshare options in Highlands. Downtown itself is very walkable — staying nearby will make the whole weekend easier and stress free.
Our Room Blocks
We’re holding room blocks at Old Edwards Inn & Spa and 200 Main — two Old Edwards properties on Main Street, both an easy walk to everything. When you book, mention the Edwards/Havig wedding so your reservation is counted with our block.
