Fun family get together
Even though we visited over a very rainy weekend, our family had a wonderful time. Having a living room and a sunroom was a great bonus. Some people could talk and visit, while others could play noisy games, and neither group disturbed the other, but were still in close proximity. The patio with the fire pit and the swing looked like they would be amazing in the right weather.

The main house was nice! The smaller cabin wasn’t great, but we had a delightful time anyway. The hammock, canoe, paddle boat, dock, and lovely landscaping added a lot to our enjoyment.

This house was wonderful! Everything about is perfect. Location is a nice walk into town. Very close if driving. Beautifully decorated. Everything done with close attention to details. The view of the lake is mesmerizing. Watching the ducks was such fun! Enjoyed the inside fireplace as well as the outside firepit. The owner has everything you could possibly need provided. She was so nice to get in touch with me personally in case we had questions, which we had a few. Very guick response. Will definitely return here as soon as possible

Property was exactly as pictured and super clean. Very comfy beds, cozy furniture, well-equipped kitchen. Amazing view whether you are inside or out and it was very relaxing to be right on the water.

We stayed with another family and the place was wonderful for our get away! The home is so well furnished and decorated! Plenty of room and very cozy! The lake was a bonus with the canoes and paddle boat! Our boys loved it and loved also their own cabin. Great yard and swing! We couldn’t have asked for a nicer place. The communication too was amazing! Location outstanding! Highly recommend!

Love this property
We have stayed at a number of properties in the Mirror Lake community and will definitely rent this property again. Mirror Lake has numerous cabins and homes dating back to the ‘30s and ‘40s and Little Joe Cabin reflects the character and quaintness of this community. But, the home also has every modern conveniences needed to ensure a relaxed vacation. We canoed, took long walks and longer naps in the hammock. Town is only a couple of minutes away with great shops and restaurants. A perfect getaway!

A Little Slice of Heaven in Highlands
Our second time renting this comfortable, thoughtfully-equipped property as an extended family. Everyone loves the beautiful view of the lake and the lush lawn that invites outdoor play and naps in the hammock. Fishing, canoeing and paddle boating keeps everyone occupied while at the property, but downtown Highlands with dining and shopping is only five minutes away! Lots of well-documented hiking trails are also just minutes away. The owners are gracious to a fault and have thought of everything you need. The small cabin on the property is a rustic and charming bonus! We are so happy to have discovered Mirror Lake and Little Jo Cabin!

Just what our family needed!
We had a fabulous stay in your lovely home. The house was clean, cozy and perfectly situated outside of town, you felt removed enough to relax like you were in the middle of nowhere but you were close enough to town to run out for a coffee. The backyard was absolutely dreamy, my kids never wanted to leave. We were able to get to several easy (young kids) hikes within 30 minutes. This house was absolutely perfect for your family, and my sister really appreciated the separate cottage. We can't wait to return!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The little cottage is very clean with nice interiors and a classic old mountain cottage floor Plan. The beds and linen are superb! The little lake is very peaceful and our kids (9 and 12) loved the canoes. Hopefully we’ll stay here again!
