THE LESBIAN COMMUNITY SINCE 1983 "
The property includes three buildings: the Main Inn, the Farmhouse, and the Cottage. The Main Inn has 13 rooms. The Farmhouse has 5 rooms and a full country kitchen ... perfect for groups as well as individual rentals. The rustic Cottage includes a living area with a queen sleep sofa and full bath on the first floor and a small upstairs loft with queen-size bed. In the late 1800s, the property held a large dairy farm and maple sugar business. Around 1900, the Inn was born when the owners opened their home to summer visitors. The present innkeeper, Grace, bought and completely renovated the buildings and grounds in 1983. The Highlands Inn has operated as a lesbian/gay resort since then. The Highlands has long been recognized as one of the finest women's inns in the country. Planet Out chose The Highlands Inn as "one of the most romantic lesbian destinations on the planet." The Inn also received Planet Out's 2006 Women's Travel Award - one of only 8 lesbian inns in the world selected for this honor.
Spectacular fall foliage, great winter skiing, lush mountain springtime, all summer sports, antiquing, tax-free shopping, and excellent restaurants are available in all directions.
The Main Inn is the center of activities; both the Farmhouse and the rustic Cottage are just a short walk from the main building. The day begins with a healthy country breakfast served in the large, sunny breakfast room. In the summer, guests enjoy the heated 54-foot pool with its surrounding sundeck. Other popular amenities include two large whirlpool spas (indoors and outdoors), the extensive lesbian/gay video collection, and 15 miles of hiking/cross-country trails right on the property. And sunsets are not to be missed! A few minutes spent relaxing on the lawn outside the Main Inn will often reward guests with a spectacular mountain sunset. In the fall, the same vistas are ablaze with the White Mountains' world-famous autumn foliage. Evening activities center around the spacious living room and its great stone fireplace, where guests congregate for conversation, a glass of wine, or a game of Scrabble. And over the past several years, the Highlands has sponsored a "Women's Concert Series". These concerts are held at the Inn throughout the year and are free to guests. As many have mentioned, there's always plenty to do at this very special women's place!
