Highland Lake House is a rare example of a private lakeside retreat, sited on level, natural terrain with over 250' of water frontage. Situated on a point, this is one of the few places on the lake where you can enjoy both full sunrise and partial sunset. This property comes with 2 docks and the deepest part of the lake is just a stone's throw away to enjoy boating, fishing and water sports. Highland Lake is 2 hours by car from Boston and 20 minutes from Portland. This 3 bedroom home with 4 beds (1 king, 1 queen, 2 twins), 1 folding bed, and 2 full baths, was originally built as a cottage in 1910, and since then has been converted to a year round home with a modern kitchen and amenities. Memorable features include a sandy beach, garage, on demand generator and a classic Victorian cottage look, complete with a turret and large wrap around porch with gorgeous panoramic views of Highland Lake. This is an excellent place to stay anytime of the year. In the spring the new plant and leaf growth is pretty, in the summer the lake is very nice for many activities, in the fall the leaf colors are beautiful, and in the winter the frozen lake offers interesting views and adventures.

Fantastic location/Amazing views
We had the best visit to Portland, Windham and surrounding areas and the house was simply awesome. Very clean, fully appointed with towels, comfortable linens and beds, and all the kitchen gadgets needed. Matt was very helpful in answering questions ahead of time and made the process easy! The lake views were stunning and the outside area provided a great space for kids to explore a bit. The house is centrally located with easy access to several great spots. We had quick trips to snow tubing, dog sledding, ice fishing and several lighthouses and hikes along the coast. Highly recommend this property!!!

Relaxing Family vacation
We had a lovely stay at Matthew’s property. A great location, with beautiful views, and everything we might need. This was our second time renting here and there were some nice upgrades, new mattresses, a new TV upstairs with sleep sofa. Highly recommend for off season for a quiet getaway to watch the sun set off the porch and listen to the Loons. Also close to Portland.

Lakehouse wonderful time
We had a wonderful time staying at this property, and it exceeded our expectations. The photos don't do the property justice. Great front porch to loll away the hours; read, jump on a paddleboard, go for a swim, prepare a great meal in the well equipped kitchen, and repeat. A/c was essential for the climate and it worked well. Lots of seating in the living areas as well as two tables to play games. Loved the covered part of the porch where we watched a lightening storm one night - spectacular!

Can I live here?!?!?
This house has me rethinking my life’s choices. Thus far, my choices in life have resulted in me NOT living in nor owning a lake house in Maine. After spending a long weekend at the Highland Lake House, I am regretting this. My friends and I enjoyed our long weekend here so much that we were all sad to leave and we were trying to figure out some way to exert eminent domain/squatter’s rights to stay forever. The house was well-appointed, clean, and the location….perfection. The pictures on VRBO really don’t do it justice. The addition of the kayaks, paddle boards, firepit, and such were a lovely and fun addition to the amenities of the property. I also very much appreciated the super comfortable beds and modern upgrades that did not detract from the charm of this old home. I will definitely be trying to talk future vacation partners into booking this home. Thank you.

Wonderful!
Enjoyed our stay at the Highland Lake House. The house was very comfortable with room enough for four adults and two teens. We loved the beds and wrap around porch and appreciated the air conditioning as the weather was very hot. The lake was quiet and we made good use of the pedal boat, paddle boards and kayaks. Thanks Matt and looking forward to renting again!

Lake view on three sides
Three generations family of 5 and two dogs enjoyed July 4th week in this amazing Victorian cottage. Owner Matt was super responsive from first inquiry to questions during our stay. Watercraft as advertised, extensive kitchen provisions including vinegars, oils, and so many spices—vanilla, garlic and onion powder, even cream of tartar!—blenders, two outdoor grills ready-to-go, handsome tableware. Two nights of quality fireworks from all around the Lake. We made one half-day excursion to Cape Elizabeth and Portland for lobster rolls and Beals ice cream. Highland Lake is mostly quiet, with only occasional jet skiers or tubers. Awesome wrap-around porch great for reading, relaxing. Massive flat-screen TVs. My favorite room, the single-bed sleeping porch, and downstairs bathroom worked well for me, a grandmother with limited mobility. Worth SIX STARS or more!

Kitchen’s well stocked, we loved using the kayaks, paddle boards, and pedal boats, beds are comfy, AC if you need it, great wrap around porch and screened in porch, plenty of room for our family of 6. We highly recommend this great home!

beautiful well appointed property
We had 6 adults and there was plenty of space. Two large bathrooms very well appointed. The property was neat and clean. We enjoyed paddle boarding on the lake and going to Portland. Highly recommend this property. The kitchen was a hit with the folks on our trip who like to cook. The AC in each room kept the home cool even in the heat wave. Owner was responsive and easy to work with.

Great Family Spot
We very much enjoyed our stay at the Highland Lake House. It is an older home that has a mixture of old and new inside. The views are beautiful and can be seen just about everywhere from the property. The home was clean and well stocked. We did appreciate the upstairs air conditioning and the newer beds which are adjustable. My kids loved the huge tv's, games/puzzels, and all the lake activities that are available. Kayaking was their favorite and they were excited to try the paddle boards. The location is fabulous. It is close to Portland and Freeport and even closer to Allagash Brewing Company and other local breweries. There was even a bowling alley that the kids enjoyed.
As beautiful as the views are from the Highland Lake House, it is not a five star property. The home is Mainely weathered and it shows. While the kitchen was well stocked, it was odd that there was leftover food in the fridge and cabinets. There was a bed on the screen porch which we could not use because the sleeping conditions was just too warm and my kids felt like it was more outside of the house than inside. While an air mattress was provided, I think that a daybed in the upstairs common area would be a better situation for families with children.
Overall, I would recommend a stay at the Highland Lake House and I could see my family doing a return trip.

Amazing house
We stayed for 5 nights 6 days. Beautiful location, house was big enough for our family. House itself was upgraded so beautifully. My favorite was the wrap around porch. The only thing I wish was different was the lake area, not so good for swimming. I was lucky enough to know neighbors to swim from their area.

Beautiful, clean home that the pictures don't do justice
The location of the lake is wonderful, with views from almost every window. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you'd need, plenty of small items like chargers throughout the house, games, puzzles, and clean bathrooms with plenty of towels. It rained about half the time we were there, but we had plenty to do in the house and around the area. Lake is steps from the porch, so we could easily spend the whole day outside on the lake, grilling up our meals. Easy driving distance to Portland and many other areas. We recommend Chipman's farm stand up in Raymond (it's a further drive than the smaller stand, but worth it), and for lobster we went to Ancient Mariner in Westbrook (seemed to be the best price around). Matt was extremely responsive to any questions we had. Can't say enough good things about this place. Beautiful lake we were able to explore with the kayaks, paddleboards, and paddle boats provided. Even saw a bald eagle!

Great family spot
This is a great spot with beautiful views of the lake surrounding the house. There was a bald Eagle in the tree next to the front door when we arrived :) We were there for thanksgiving and it was very quiet and comfortable. The living room is great for a family visit because it’s got different places to sit- it was much more spacious than I expected. Check in was very straightforward.

Wonderful house for family vacation
We had a wonderful week at this house. The house was beautiful—a mix of old charm and modern updates making it a wonderful place to relax and get away. The host had everything we needed at the house, the kitchen was well equipped, it included access to the kayaks, and the Porch has a spectacular 180 view of the lake. And the easy access to Portland was a real plus. We hope to be back.
