Two Miles From the Best Town in the Mountains.

There's a particular kind of morning that only happens at a lakefront property — the one where you're outside with coffee before anyone else is awake, the water is completely still, and the mountains are just starting to catch the light. Lake Sequoyah does this exceptionally well. And this home, with its private dock, newly renovated deck, and unobstructed lake views from nearly every room, puts you right in the middle of it.

Four bedrooms. Three bathrooms. A full entertainment level that keeps everyone happy when they're not on the water. And two miles of easy road between you and downtown Highlands whenever the outside world calls.

The Main Level Lives for the View - The great room announces the lake immediately — bright, open, and oriented to make the most of the water views that stretch out beyond the deck. Casual meals happen at the bar, longer ones pull everyone to the dining area, and the two king bedrooms on this level give the adults in the group the quiet, lake-facing retreats they came here for. The primary suite is luxurious in the way that actually matters — calm, comfortable, and waking up to water. The second king room delivers the same peaceful lake views with slightly less ceremony, which is not a complaint.

Downstairs, the Trip Gets Fun - The lower level is where vacation momentum builds. Ping pong. A gaming table. A cozy library for whoever needs a quieter corner. A PS4 for movie nights or gaming sessions that run later than anyone planned. Two additional bedrooms — a bunk room that the kids will claim immediately and a fourth king bedroom for overflow adults — share a full bathroom with walk-in shower. A laundry room on this level means longer stays are fully supported and packing light is a legitimate strategy.

The Dock, the Deck, the Whole Point Step outside and the property reveals its best feature: a newly renovated deck and patio flowing down to a private dock on Lake Sequoyah. Kayaks in the morning. Fishing off the dock in the afternoon. Sunset from the deck with something cold in hand as the lake goes from gold to still. This outdoor sequence — from the patio to the dock and back — is the kind of thing that fills the days without any planning required and generates the photos that make everyone else wish they'd come.

Lake Sequoyah is quiet, clean, and genuinely beautiful. Having a private dock on it is the kind of thing that turns a good mountain trip into the one your group talks about for years afterward.

Highlands, Two Miles Away - Waterfalls, hiking trails, acclaimed restaurants, boutique shopping, the Old Edwards Inn and Spa — all of it is two miles down the road. Highlands is one of those towns that rewards every season: mild summers perfect for the lake, fall color that stops you mid-sentence, winter scenery that makes the fireplace feel essential. Come whenever you can. The dock will be waiting.

What our guests are saying…

"New Years 2022. Highlands Lake Sequoyah Lodge was everything we had hoped it would be. Beautiful view of Lake Sequoyah off the back porch. Spacious rooms to accommodate all guests. We had a blast being able to use the kayak's on the lake. Thank you so much for an amazing weekend stay and we look forward to returning in the future!" - Rent In Highlands Vacation Rental Guest, Logan
