Highland Lake is a beautiful private pristine lake located in Windham/Falmouth Maine. Our lake is fed by springs and streams. The south end of the lake empties into a channel and becomes a tributary of the Presumpscot River, and then onto Casco Bay. We have some of the best fishing and sunsets around! The lake is perfect for kayaking, viewing wildlife, swimming, sunning, relaxing with friends, family, books, puzzles and enjoying great local food! You"ll find that Fayth Cottage is in a peaceful setting nestled in a classic lakeside community speckled with cottages and homes all along a preserved shoreline. You will have private access to 100 feet of shoreline, a stationary dock and a floating dock. Enjoy a beautiful sunset, listen to the loons or take our double and single kayaks out on the water to explore the lake. Feel like a change of pace? Jump in your car and head to Portland and in 15 minutes you'll find yourself in a food lovers paradise! The city is home to some of the best chefs who have relocated from around the globe, making Portland one of the hottest spots nationally on the food scene. You can also hop on a ferry in the Old Port to visit or tour the islands in Casco Bay. There are museums, music venues, and historical sites (not to mention water) all in and around the greater Portland area. In addition to our beautiful spot on Highland Lake there are beaches close by for day or afternoon trips. Freeport, home of our beloved LL Bean flagship store and campus is only a car ride away. There you will find outlets, coffee shops, restaurants, ice cream parlors, cafes and much more. Also located in Freeport is Wolfes Neck Woods State Park. It's well worth checking out if you want to decompress from an afternoon of shopping. Its a short drive from the village and the views are breathtaking. The park is composed of woodlands, estuaries, rocky coast line, guided nature walks and osprey watching. One of the many amazing things about Highland Lake is its proximity to vastly different landscapes in the surrounding area. We have mountains, rivers, lakes, ocean, hiking, fishing, boating all within a reasonable distance to make your vacation filled with a rich experience of what our beautiful state has to offer. Whether you want to drop your bags and kick back for your entire stay at our home, or maybe you have an interest in exploring and experiencing the many things our area has to offer, you couldn't have picked a better spot than Fayth Cottage!
