Lakefront home with sunrise views, private dock, kayaks, paddle boards, WFH desk

Overlook at Highland Lake

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Discover the epitome of lakefront living at this charming home on the western shore of Highland Lake, just 12 miles from Portland. Spend your mornings sipping coffee on the decks overlooking the water, your afternoons swimming or paddling from the dock at the water's edge (kayaks, paddleboards, life vests, and fishing gear are provided!), and your evenings grilling and dining alfresco as the kids play on the waterfront lawn. There's also a firepit where you can roast s'mores, tell ghost stories, and stargaze in the evenings.

The two-story interior is perfect for entertaining, with a large living room offering multiple seating vignettes and a smart TV for streaming using your accounts. (The fireplace is not operational.) Prepare favorite recipes in the adjacent well-equipped kitchen using the stainless steel appliances, and pull the high chair up to the dining room table to gather the whole crew together at mealtime. Indulge in a restful night's sleep in three upstairs bedrooms. Kids will love the bunk room, while those who need to work remotely can choose between two WFH desks in the guest bedroom.

Good property for a young family
Nice home for a family vacation, but very little accommodations for people with limited mobility. It should be noted all bedrooms are located upstairs, there are none on the main level.

Great Home!
We are traveling for business many months out of the year and this place was literally a home away from home. It was kept super well and very clean. We enjoyed our stay here. In fact, we tried to extend our stay but someone lse had already booked it. However, we will be back!
