We only came into town for a wedding, but we loved the lakefront cottage! It's an older home, but it was well kept and suited our needs perfect. We're hoping to "jump in the lake" the next time we stay. Thank you Jeanne for allowing us to check in early...we look forward to our next stay!!
We booked the cottage as a kayaking retreat approx one week in advance bc the weather outlook was excellent for the season. By all indications in the listing, the cottage was perfect for what we were there to accomplish. When we arrived the water level was extremely low due to a planned drawback which rendered the dock useless and even dangerous for our 3 young kids. The beach area was all muck, moss, and sharp rocks for several feet from the waters edge. This was NOT an act of nature, it was a planned water reduction so that homeowners could work on their docks, this measure was apparently enacted weeks before we arrived.. This information was NOT disclosed to us at the time of scheduling and it was not disclosed in the description. This planned event rendered the purpose of the cottage (as a lake house) nil. Communication with Jeanne proved absolutely fruitless. She took no responsibility for the non disclosure. There was no effort or willingness made to rectify OR comp the experience in anyway, only back peddled explanations and half hearted apologies. It was a very disappointing exchange considering our willingness to reason and settle. We were able to make the best of it by packing our gear and visiting burr pond a few miles away. It wouldâve made more sense for us to drive there straight from our home... I would not recommend.
Check was easy and smooth, extra directions communicated were great, the use of water toys were wonderfully appreciated. We had a very short stay for an event but would highly recommend and would absolutely stay again.
Really enjoyed this cute little cottage right on the lake. Brought our 3 year old to visit family. Nice bedrooms. Gorgeous deck. Really good communication from the owner as far as directions and such. Would go back for sure.
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.
happen to get beautiful weather while staying at the cottage at highland lake. so nice to wake up with a view, and then at sunset to enjoy the glass like water.
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!
