Homey country atmosphere, with class. — for some of us, a comfortable local night out, or regular hangout. For guests at the inn I bet the dining and living room areas are a pleasant surprise. Sometimes there is an overly-enthusiastic group in the dining room, but overall very tame , with good bar and good local food.

The Highland Lodge is a quiet, comfortable getaway place, far removed from life's routine; for family get-togethers it is ideal, and the surrounding area has many attractions, especially for active 30 to 60-year-olds for skiing and hiking in season.

Great historic inn with owners who care about the whole experience of their guests. This was my 3rd visit. Incredibly quiet, and at night you can hear loons and other waterfowl on Caspian Lake, and coyotes calling across the valley. Nice trail brings you to a great swimming spot on the lake. The food is excellent, and bar atmosphere is cozy.

Had dinner one night and the food was fantastic. Had ribs with a drizzled blueberry barbecue sauce. I was hesitant about this sauce but it was crazy good. Had breakfast the next two mornings and I would not rave about it but it was ok.

We were very impressed with the Highland Lodge. We were able to stay in a cottage that had our surname on it, which was super special. Everything about the Lodge is quaint. The area is beautiful, and so restful. If you want something out of the normal, the Highland Lodge is where to go. Hosts are very accommodating.

A great dinner and amazing salads....the quality of the food and flavors all worked together and were delivered hot to the table! The cocktails were great. Beer selection was robust. A good size bar crowd so there was some delay to get the drinks but otherwise, all good.

We had the pasta primavera special and their brownie sundae in a glass dessert and I had a chocolate martini. Great food and great drinks. We sat on the porch and had a lovely view. Just all around perfect in every way.

Our 3 nights at Highland Lodge came at the end of a 12 day trip, and I wish we could have stayed the entire 12 nights - it was the highlight of our vacation! The entire staff was welcoming and made us immediately feel like we were part of the community. This place is special! From the warm, delicious breakfasts, to the comfortable, but modern rooms, to the coziest beds, to the delicious cocktails and food - and the amazing setting and grounds and beach access. Just a 5 star place all around tucked into the hill above Caspian Lake. Absolutely cannot wait to return - what an incredible place.Rooms: We stayed in a suite at the Lodge, and then moved to a cabin. Both were incredibly comfortable! We didn't want to leave.Nearby activities: Lakes, Hiking, Breweries, Galleries, Bread & Puppet Theatre - something for everyone!Safety: Couldn't be safer.Walkability: Loved walking the grounds - up to our cabin, and around the lodge, and trail down to the lake. So pretty.Food & drinks: Make sure you eat in the restaurant for dinner. Order the cocktails. The breakfasts. Everything was oustanding.

We enjoyed an excellent meal here. The wild mushroom toast, the tomato tarte and grilled chicken marbella were all exceptionally tasty, well beyond what most restaurants in the area serve. We sat outside for the view.

Great setting it was too cold for the porch but with the right weather and/or clothing it would be amazing above the lake! Food was very good not a ton of options but all done well and something for everyone. Cocktails were good wine selection seemed extensive.

We started with a drink in the bar, followed by a lovely dinner outside on the porch. Waitstaff was attentive, friendly and all of the above! Truly enjoyed our experience at Highland Lodge!

Fantastic food. Beautiful views. Great cocktails and pairings. Service was friendly and considerate to get the kids meal out right away. Only feedback is that the steak knifes were comically dull and need of sharpening. We will be back for sure!

Unfortunately, we will not return there due to the unpleasant atmosphere we had while eating on the porch. There was a party there that was so loud so we could barely hear each other talk and we had to request to be moved inside. Definitely.not a memorable experience.

The appetizer - Summer Tart was the best thing we tried. The tart crust was nice and flakey and the combination of the tasty tomatoes and pesto sauce was perfect. Both the chicken dish and the hamburger were quite tasty, too. I wished that there were more dessert items to consider, but the gluten-free brownies with rich vanilla ice cream was a nice way to finish a meal. Hope they consider adding lattes on the menu, too!
