Beautiful Property

We spent 2 weeks at this lovely home and it exceeded our expectations in every way. The house is spacious, super-comfortable and has every amenity, including cable tv, a rare luxury these days. Highland Lake was fabulous for kayaking and just floating, and Portland and Pine Point Beach are a mere 25 minute, easy drive away. Very responsive host. Truly hated to leave!

Great home for our vacation!

This home was exactly as advertised. It had great amenities, including the kayaks, paddle boards, and charcoal grill, all that we used. Having the lake handy was wonderful for an evening paddle or dip. Small details also made it great such as plenty of cutlery and dishes for our group of 6 adults and 2 babies. The large living room and porch allowed us to play our board games and just relax together. The proximity of Portland allowed us to go out to dinner a couple of times and catch the ferry to Peak's Island. A beautiful place, both inside and out.
