We had a fabulous time on Highland Lake this summer! Our 7 year old loved all the swimming and fishing and we just relaxed all week long with some paddling, reading, and lounging in the sun. Lovely property, very well cared for, with super friendly owners who were always available if we needed anything. Wish we could've spent more time in the cute little town of Bridgton but... COVID. Great takeout options available and we did catch a drive in movie about 5 minutes away which was great fun. Just all around perfect family vacation.

We truly enjoyed our week at Tom and Rita's cottage. The place was well cared for, clean, and had everything we needed for a fun week on the lake. We took advantage of everything we could--the kayaks, canoe, swimming off the docks, fishing, and using the fire pit. It was all fantastic. The location is perfect. The owners are excellent property managers. They provide thorough and timely communication on policies and instructions. We were travelling amidst COVID restrictions, and they continuously kept us updated. While we were at the cottage they were always available for questions. We look forward to visiting again!

From 1st contact to departure Tom made the process smoooth and easy. The view from this property is beautiful.

This cabin has everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. The owners could not have been any more welcoming or helpful. The water was lovely. A perfect stay. We will be back!

The property was everything we expected and more. So clean and user friendly. We loved everything about it. The waterfront was equipped with seating, and many boats. Definitely would recommend this to anyone who wants a quiet getaway.

Super excellent!

Super excellent!

This property, along with it’s owners, surpassed all expectations. Upon arrival, the lights were on, cottage opened, fresh flowers on the table and light music playing; an incredible welcome to my time away. The Cottage is nestled along the beautiful shores of a lake under beautiful pines trees with beautiful views of the lake. The dock alone with built-in seating to watch the sunsets over the lake and Mountain made for an enchanting stay. This cottage is appointed with great care. From beautiful knotty pine vaulted ceilings throughout, high quality mattresses, linens and towels for your comfort to quality furniture for relaxation. The kitchen was incredibly well appointed and stocked with any kind of cookware and prep-ware one would need. You really can’t get much closer to the water with kayaks, a canoe, a rowboat, and sailboat at my disposal. In all honesty, this is the cleanest property I’ve stayed in. Top to bottom spotless, which really makes for a pleasant stay. I woke to Loons calling, read a book to relax on the dock and enjoyed the quiet and serene surroundings. I stayed here with my Mother for a getaway. She is mobile but uses a rollator walker. She was able to maneuver quite well throughout the property. I have rented many properties on over 15 lakes in Maine for the last 20 years; this property is top on the list. Last but certainly not least, Tom and his wife were beyond professional and welcoming with hospitality that is most often lacking these days. I barely needed anything but they were incredibly accommodating when I did. We’ll definitely return.

This is a fantastic property, for a couple especially. There is plenty of room in a very clean and well furnished cabin with direct access to Highland Lake. The property owner lives next door which is a real help if questions arise but we were left alone to enjoy our peaceful week otherwise. You are provided with several boating options, we used the kayaks three times. It saves money and time that the kayaks are provided right outside our cabin. We certainly enjoyed the deck for meals and reading time and the dock is sizable with a few seats provided. Beautiful sunsets and loon sightings. It is a short drive to some really nice restaurants and 'downtown' shopping.

Awesome, easy. Very responsive owner, clean and fully stocked

We can't give enough praise to the owners of this little gem of a cabin, nestled under the trees on Highland Lake. The accommodations were lovely, right down to the vase of fresh flowers and music playing upon arrival! Everything was fresh and clean. This cozy little cabin's kitchen was fully equipped, had we needed it, but we ordered lobster out every single day! A true Maine experience for us. It was a great get away reunion for two college buddies. Being on the south side of the lake provided sun on the big dock all morning until lunch. We even figured out a way to get afternoon sun by bringing our chairs out to the float in the rowboat, which we thought to be vary creative, as did Tom ;) We so enjoyed the BREATHTAKING sunsets while sitting in the Adirondack chairs on the dock. The cabin was very handicap friendly, which I truly appreciated, since I'm still recovering from a serious car accident and surgery. My one and only suggestion for improvement would be to add a grab bar and light to the stand up shower if possible. Yet this will not stop us from returning again next year, (and hopefully many more), as we truly loved everything about the place! A little slice of heaven on Highland Lake! Thank you for everything Tom and Rita! Lenore and Cary

Most well equipped kitchen of any rental EVE!R Lavish towels and immaculate. Lovely owners. We’ll be back!

This cottage was perfect for us! Secluded but yet close to town. The most beautiful sunsets I have ever seen from the dock! When we arrived at the cottage Tom was there to greet us and show us around. We have stayed at a different cottage over the past ten years...and the is the cleanest cottage we ever stayed in....and I mean spotless! We felt right at home immediately. There was NOTHING missing for our stay. Tom and Rita thought of everything. Thank you both for sharing this hidden gem!

Great place, friendly owners available if needed. Extremely clean

Adorable little cottage. Everything seemed to be very well thought out and well stocked for cooking. The view is incredible in time was very nice and kind. If we ever get that way again we will be sure to stay there. I would highly recommend this Cabin, especially if you want a little romance!

A quiet peaceful stay. We were so very comfortable we didn't want to get out of bed but when we did we get up starter day have coffee out on the porch overlooking the lake. Very quiet cozy. We're talking about next year going back and probably every year to come.

The cottage is perfect in every way... location, size, and cleanliness! The beds are comfortable and the house inside and out has absolutely everything you could possibly think of, from the fire pit, wood, boats, kitchen pots, pans, and utensils!!! Absolutely everything you can think of is there! Not to mention the owners, Tom & Rita, they are wonderful!

This place is exactly what we were looking for. This is a perfect Maine camp, it is clean, rustic and right on the lake with access to a canoe and kayaks. We could not have been more happy with our stay here and wish we could have stayed longer!

We come back every year, because the cottage is lovely and well-maintained. As always, this year we again enjoyed a wonderful, restful week beside the lake. The owners are friendly and immediately responsive to all needs.
