Game on, Highland Homestead! 🎱

We just added a ping pong table to the garage and we are so here for it. As travelers ourselves, we always gravitate toward places with a game room — so we are building one! More games are on the way, but for now, let the ping pong tournaments begin.

Fun for all ages, perfect for a rainy lake day, and honestly just a great excuse to get a little competitive with your people.

Summer bookings are open — come make some memories. 💙

We closed the Haus for a 6 weeks while it under went some much needed updates. We are back in business and ready to welcome you this summer. Remember the Haus are a short walk to Highland Lake and guests have access to our 3 person canoe.

The bathroom was the biggest project this time around and we are so happy with how it turned out.

We also added a small bedroom and now can accommodate 5 guests!

The Highland Haus is named after Highland Lake, which is just a short walk away from the Haus. Guests can access the lake via a free public launch.

Highland Lake is a 697-acre water body located in Sullivan and Cheshire counties in southwestern New Hampshire, United States, in the towns of Washington and Stoddard. The lake has two outlets. The north outlet feeds Shedd Brook, while the south outlet flows through Island Pond to the North Branch of the Contoocook River. Water from the two outlets rejoins in the town of Hillsborough, approximately 8 miles (13 km) east of Highland Lake and one mile upstream from the Contoocook River. The northern end of the lake is only accessible by boat through a channel approximately 50 feet wide.

The lake has been a popular site for recreational boating during the summer and snowmobiling during the winter since before the 1960s. Waterskiiers are a frequent sight, and sea planes are known to occasionally use the lake. Most of the lakeside real estate has seasonal and year-round residences situated on plots of land smaller than .25 acres. The Highland Lake Marina (the waterway's only such establishment) is located at the end of Shedd Hill Road. It is open during summer weekends, and offers boat storage, docking, and recreational merchandise. There is also a diner attached.

The lake is classified as a warm water fishery and is home to species such as black crappie, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, chain pickerel, horned pout, and white perch. The land surrounding Pickerel Cove is owned and protected by the Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests.
