Please message me in the app if you need help or have questions during your stay. Mirror Lake Neighborhood – Highlands, NC Nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Mirror Lake is one of Highlands’ most coveted residential areas—offering a serene blend of natural beauty, mountain charm, and walkable convenience. Scenic & Peaceful Setting The neighborhood wraps around the tranquil Mirror Lake, a private body of water perfect for canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. Many homes boast lakefront views or wooded lots, creating a peaceful retreat-like atmosphere. Residents enjoy the soothing sounds of waterfalls, including the Mirror Lake dam cascade, which adds to the area's rustic elegance. Location & Lifestyle Just minutes from downtown Highlands, residents can walk or bike to Main Street’s boutique shops, gourmet restaurants, art galleries, and seasonal events. The area is surrounded by hiking trails, waterfalls, and scenic overlooks, making it a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. We have parking on-site for two medium sized cars. Many of our Highlands roads are windy, so keep this in mind when planning your visit here. Large cars, like Suburbans, may have some difficulty navigating the smaller roads. Highlands doesn't have reliable driving app service - please ask and I will provide you with several private car service options. We are located less than a mile from the heart of Main Street, but walking on the main highways is not recommended. Important Information Please note, the game and laundry rooms are located in the finished, above-ground 'basement' of the cottage. Headroom in this area is limited, which may be a consideration for our very tall guests. As this is a mountain property, the cottage is not recommended for any guests with physical limitations on climbing stairs, maneuvering over sloped surfaces.

Stay Foxy Cottage, Mirror Lake Highlands, NC

This was my first visit to Highlands, and Stay Foxy was the perfect choice for us. Not only is it a darling, chic, super clean cottage, but it also has this calming energy that’s hard to put into words. It’s just minutes from downtown and all the incredible restaurants and shops. The spa at Old Edwards Inn is a must! Sophia was wonderfully responsive and helpful, and even left us a much-appreciated surprise upon arrival. I’ll absolutely be back and can’t recommend this cottage highly enough!

Chic, Clean and Calming

As frequent visitors to Highlands, we have now found the most perfect cottage for a warm, relaxing stay! Stay Foxy was exceptionally clean, organized, thoughtfully decorated, and well-stocked with high quality furniture, bedding and bath, and kitchen and dining necessities. The showers were wonderful and the beds comfortable. We especially enjoyed the numerous and varied outdoor seating options to include two types of swings, multiple rockers, and numerous Adirondack chairs and loungers. The fire pit offered an intimate place to savor a glass of wine in the late, crisp autumn afternoon surrounded by autumn foliage. The cottage was equipped with varied board games, puzzles, and an electronic arcade. The location was perfect- so close to downtown for dining, shopping, and other activities, yet also easy to set out on a waterfall drive. The host was efficient and prompt during the booking process. The cottage shows that she has thought of everything to offer her guests an enjoyable stay. Stay Foxy is just the perfect and idyllic cottage in this beautiful area! We look forward to a return visit!

Found our new Highlands home!

I can't say enough about what a wonderful time our family had at the Stay Foxy Cottage! It was truly one of the best home away from home experiences we have had. The home itself and peaceful surroundings are absolutely magical. The cottage is warm and cozy, beautifully decorated with incredible attention to detail and perfectly well appointed. We loved making freshly ground coffee in the morning and cooking meals every night in the very well stocked kitchen. The beds and linens are wonderfully comfortable and snuggly…We look forward to returning time and time again!

Magical

There are few places that I have ever felt so immediately and comfortably at home. This property is perfection if you love nature, trees, and the warmth of a cottage. It will speak to your soul. You won’t find a better place to rest, explore, and look forward to returning to. The covered porch invites you to listen to the birds and the wind rustling thru the trees - we had our coffee there every morning - what a peace filled way to begin the day. I was there with my husband & our grown children. I would love to take a few dear friends back to experience this amazing place.
