About this cottage rental
Nestled on 1 acre in hemlocks, pines, rhododendrons and oaks, our comfortable cottage in the Mirror Lake neighborhood has the best of all that Highlands has to offer. We’re a five minute walk through small neighborhood roads from the lake, a five minute walk to the mill creek greenway, a trail through the woods that passes the Bascom art center and leads to downtown. We’re a three minute drive to all of the stores and restaurants in downtown Highlands. Our home has an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings and a wood burning fireplace. The house is comfortably furnished and thoughtfully decorated, and includes our own art work; architectural drawings, paintings, and hand-made porcelain dinnerware. The house comfortably sleeps 5 and offers all the expected comforts like cable TV, wifi and a well-appointed kitchen. Sit on a rocking chair on the front porch and listen to the creek that passes through the property, or hang out down by the outdoor stone fireplace located next to a small waterfall. Go for a walk to the lake or downtown, hike one of Highlands many beautiful trails, or lounge around and relax in this ideal vacation setting. Enjoy your stay knowing that the cottage is being cleaned and disinfected per expert guidelines, including a 48 hour waiting period between guests.

8 / 10Excellent·Jun 2026
We would have liked finding some coffee for the morning, as we arrived at 11pm. In every other respect, the accommodation was excellent.

Great.

3 bears cabin far exceeded our expectations. It was better than the pictures (which normally is not the case). The cabin was so charming, well decorated and immaculately clean. It was stocked with everything one could need in a home away from home. The cabin is located close to center of town but feels like it is secluded. Highly recommend this property!!

We spent a week at The 3 Bears and loved it all. We felt very secluded, even though we were right off Route 64 and very close to downtown Highlands. As seniors, we were unprepared for the short hike from the parking area down to the cabin and, unfortunately got soaked while carrying in our supplies and luggage during a downpour. BUT, that aside, we give highest marks to this top-notch mountain cabin. A+
