About this property

Gorgeous Lake Front Resort Home at Alpine Lake

'The Highlander' was lovingly built by Jeanne Casale Bourn, who decorated it with beautiful quilts and other local treasures. Her touch is still evident – comfortable, modern and absolutely relaxing.

The house looks directly onto the middle of the lake with a view from the beach to the lodge. A wrap around deck (partially enclosed) provides a wonderful view.

The Highlander boasts 11 rooms, 3 bath, 4 bedrooms (sleeps 10: bed - 1 queen; 2 full; 2 twins; and a full futon in the study).

Electric baseboard heat; AC in central living area and master bedroom, and ceiling fans everywhere. Pellet stoves both up and downstairs. Full kitchen with dishwasher and new microwave and new stove; washer & dryer; satellite TV, DVD, DVD collection. No house phone, cell reception is good. Wifi at house. Rental includes use of canoe / toboggan in season.

Easy walking distance (5 minutes) to beach, fishing (the lake is stocked every spring), playground, tennis and basketball courts and horseshoe pit.

Free use of indoor pool and exercise room, and inexpensive outdoor mini golf at lodge.

Full 18 hole golf available right at Alpine.

Lovely setting with the cabin overlooking the lake. A great place to spend some time reconnecting with our family. We had some trouble accessing some of the amenities ( some may have changed between when we made reservations and when we arrived.) overall we had a good time.

Beautiful lake home with a magnificent view. The Highlander is close to the beach, boat house and pickleball court. Our group was very comfortable and already planning for our next trip back to Alpine Lake.

We were here for a wedding but never thought it would be as heavenly as it was. Woke up every morning at 6am and watch the sunrise which was breath taking. At night sat on the deck with family picking out all the stars we knew and saw many shooting stars. Took walks along the lake and tried a few trails. I could have not picked a nicer place. Nieces (over 35yrs old) were amazed by all the books available to read. I could do this everyday if it was available. Clean and homey and close to so many things to do and other family Thank you Rod for allowing us to stay here

The house location was perfect as it was close to the beach and had easy lake access. We loved the screened in porch. Rod was very attentive and responsive. The basement had a slight pet smell, but wasn’t offensive. The outside grill was nearing end of life. Overall we had a wonderful time and would definitely stay here again!
