"To say the least, we are spoiled for any other retreat, and it was difficult to return to life as normal after such an enjoyable stay at Highland Lake Inn."
  
 -Robert L. Carroll, Director, Product Marketing, Michelin North America.

      

Highland Lake Inn is not your typical hotel/conference center setting. Our facility is the perfect fit for businesses that want to incorporate productive meetings in a quiet country setting. Not only do we have wonderfully appointed, spacious guestrooms and amenities but we also have 26 serene, lakeside acres to roam.

Our lodging is spread between two large buildings--the Lodge that has 20 rooms and the Woodward House, which has another 16. The remaining lodging that makes up our 84 rooms consists of 10 Cabins and 17 two-to-four bedroom Cottages. The Lodge and Woodward House have comfortable lobby's, each with a fireplace, ample seating as well as large porches with rocking chairs for relaxing and getting acquainted. Charmingly renovated, our historic Poolside Cottages have all the creature comforts of home. The Garden Hamlets are a small neighborhood of Cottages overlooking a meadow filled with goats and donkeys.

Another feature that sets Highland Lake Inn apart is Season's Restaurant. Our award-winning chefs specialize in garden fresh cuisine, much of which comes from our organic garden and is served in a casually elegant setting in our 180-seat restaurant. Our seasonal menus are based on the flow of produce from our garden and our chefs and gardeners work hand-in-hand in planning the gardens. We are the recipients of the "Award of Excellence" from Wine Spectator magazine for having one of the best restaurant wine lists in the world every year since 2000. We have just recently received Convention South's Best of the Best Award.
