Mirror Lake Neighborhood – Highlands, NC Nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Mirror Lake is one of Highlands’ most coveted residential areas—offering a serene blend of natural beauty, mountain charm, and walkable convenience. Scenic & Peaceful Setting The neighborhood wraps around the tranquil Mirror Lake, a private body of water perfect for canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. Many homes boast lakefront views or wooded lots, creating a peaceful retreat-like atmosphere. Residents enjoy the soothing sounds of waterfalls, including the Mirror Lake dam cascade, which adds to the area's rustic elegance. Location & Lifestyle Just minutes from downtown Highlands, residents can walk or bike to Main Street’s boutique shops, gourmet restaurants, art galleries, and seasonal events. The area is surrounded by hiking trails, waterfalls, and scenic overlooks, making it a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. We have parking on-site for two medium sized cars. Many of our Highlands roads are windy, so keep this in mind when planning your visit here. Large cars, like Suburbans, may have some difficulty navigating the smaller roads. Highlands doesn't have reliable driving app service - please ask and I will provide you with several private car service options. We are located less than a mile from the heart of Main Street, but walking on the main highways is not recommended. Important Information Please note, the game and laundry rooms are located in the finished, above-ground 'basement' of the cottage. Headroom in this area is limited, which may be a consideration for our very tall guests. As this is a mountain property, the cottage is not recommended for any guests with physical limitations on climbing stairs, maneuvering over sloped surfaces.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and a fireplace.
