"Come join us for escape weekends, family vacations, ski weeks, weddings, anniversaries, class reunions, or retreats.
Ours is a rare and special place of childhood memories and warm, lazy days by the lake. Step back in time with us and remove yourself from civilization.

For more than seventy years, guests from afar have been vacationing at the Highland Lodge. Begun as a farmhouse boarding house in the 1920s, the Lodge now hosts guests in twenty-two tastefully decorated rooms and cottages.

In the main Lodge, the handsome lines of the original farmhouse are still evident. The sweeping Queen Anne porch has a lovely vantage of meadow, lake, and hills. Wicker porch rockers and Adirondack chairs entice you to relax in the tranquility of summertime in the country.

Families come back year after year to do just that. In July and August the center of children's activities is the morning play program, where Snow Wakeman presides with a magical touch. In the afternoon activity centers around the beach with the whole family. Summer amenities include:

Private sandy beach and beach house on Caspian Lake
Lake raft and dock, grills
Paddleboats, pulling boats, canoes
Clay tennis court
Lawn games, including volleyball and badminton, horseshoes
Barr Hill and Highland Lodge Nature Trails
Acclaimed play program for 4-9 year olds (July & August)
Game room
Bicycle and sailboat rental
Golf Pass to Mountain View Country Club (Greens fees extra)
In the fall, visitors come from all over the world to see the spectacular fall foliage. Whether you bicycle the scenic roadways, hike the Lodge trails, or drive one of the Cultural Heritage or peak foliage road tours, you will relax and revel in the unspoiled, peaceful beauty of our landscape.
