    This house is cute! Very clean and rooms were just as described. Beds were very comfortable. Bathrooms were very nice and had everything we needed. Setting is perfect, close to the water! Canoe and paddle boat easily accessible. We really enjoyed the outdoor fire pit next to the lake and the children loved playing in the forest - paths thru the rhododendron! Great location, quiet street. Property mgr was quick to answer our questions.

    We had kids and grandchildren at this home on Mirror Lake. The house was comfortable, particularly the sunroom overlooking the lake. We had brought kayaks and were able to use their canoe and their paddle boat. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking ware and plates. The location is very close to the center of Highlands.

    I loved the location to town and the serenity of the property. And all on Mirror Lake!

    Even though we visited over a very rainy weekend, our family had a wonderful time. Having a living room and a sunroom was a great bonus. Some people could talk and visit, while others could play noisy games, and neither group disturbed the other, but were still in close proximity. The patio with the fire pit and the swing looked like they would be amazing in the right weather.

    We visit Highlands often (2-3x yr) and this was one of the best places we have stayed! Best way to describe it is simply magical! The house sits so peacefully on Mirror Lake it feels like you are in another world. Our kids were obsessed with taking the canoe out every morning and going fishing. The property is also less than 5 min from town making it super convenient. The cottage itself was clean and cozy. Our favorite spot was of course the all seasons porch overlooking the lake. If you are looking for a quiet cottage with serene water views but still have access to all of Highlands amenities, this is the spot for you! We will definitely be back!

    We stayed four nights in September. The house is very nice, right on the water, clean, unique, furnished very well. Close to town. We would definitely stay here again.

    The main house was nice! The smaller cabin wasn’t great, but we had a delightful time anyway. The hammock, canoe, paddle boat, dock, and lovely landscaping added a lot to our enjoyment.
