Awesome lakeside property
Jeanne was wonderful to work with and very responsive when we booked our last minute get away. Location is ideal - we brought our kayaks and very easy launching area. Would definitely not hesitate to come back to the same spot. Thanks for sharing your home with us.

Perfect Fall Getaway
My husband and I recently enjoyed a weekend at the Cottage at Highland Lake and would highly recommend it. The host gave excellent detailed directions, check in was easy, and the cottage was clean and exactly as described with a fully remodeled upstairs. There is a small deck off the master bedroom and a really nice size deck off the first floor, both overlooking the lake. Best of all is the location. The cottage is right on the lake and has a dock. Overall just a perfect weekend escape!
