Located on 100 private wooded acres in New Hampshire's beautiful White Mountains, The Highlands Inn is truly "A Lesbian Paradise." The Inn received PlanetOut's Women's Travel Award, one of only 8 lesbian inns in the world selected for this honor!
.
.
Here's what PlanetOut said about us:
"For romance, a honeymoon or simply to escape, The Highlands Inn continues to be a lesbian paradise. Hike, bike or breathe in the fresh mountain air on the property's 100 acres of secluded woods before adjourning to the outdoor spa, heated pool or Victorian country splendor of the 200-year-old main mountain farmhouse."
.
The Inn has 19 guest rooms, all with private baths. Several rooms have special amenities, such as a private deck, fireplace, two-person spa, or both a spa and fireplace. Rooms and common areas are furnished with antiques, fine linens, original artwork, and fresh flowers, creating the ambiance of a Victorian country home. In keeping with this atmosphere, guest rooms feature distinctive period pieces; many have a four-poster or canopy bed handcrafted by local craftsmen.
.
In the winter, our trails provide outstanding cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. We have two large whirlpool spas, both open year round. The private indoor spa is located in the Main Inn, in a room off the breakfast room, and the outdoor spa is just a few steps from the Main Inn. Many guests especially enjoy relaxing in the outdoor spa, surrounded by snow-covered fields!
.
.
In the summer, guests enjoy the heated 54-foot pool with its surrounding sundeck and adjacent spa. Leisurely walks and more strenuous hikes on the Inn's 15 miles of well-maintained trails are always popular ... the trails are also great for mountain biking. And New Hampshire's fall foliage is world-famous!

Sample Guest Comments ....
Thank you all for a truly spectacular vacation--we hadn't felt so relaxed in years. Not only were we surrounded by acres of beautiful peace and quiet, we also made several friends that we can't wait to see again (not to mention the coconut pancakes)! The atmosphere and friendliness far exceeded our already high expectations. Thanks for making our civil union so unforgettable, and you can bet you'll see us back for each anniversary! - Dayton, OH
.
Our weekend at the Highlands Inn put us in a nurturing frame of mind, for us to keep close when we get back to the "real" world. We met the most wonderful women and were rejuvenated by the beautiful room decor, the mountains and the hot tub. Not to mention Jackie's banana bread! Thank you for the Highlands Inn--it is such a special place. We are happy to have found you and look forward to hopefully coming back for many years. - Hudson Valley, NY

Just wanted to thank you and your lovely partner for a wonderful time. We spent 2 nights in your fabulous inn and found it simply charming and so peaceful. The atmosphere was so refreshing. It's nice to be amongst like-minded people. Expect us back soon. - Ontario, Canada

Our first visit to Lesbian Paradise - here with our pals from North Carolina, ringing in the New Year on our skis. Great food, great friends, in a place that is better than our dreams! Thanks, Grace! - Seattle, WA

The Highlands Inn is such a safe haven, such a very special place. The atmosphere, the friendliness and the amenities that you take pride in providing are very much enjoyed and appreciated. We were able to relax (let's hear it for the outdoor jacuzzi!), sleep, laugh and shop to our hearts' content last weekend. We really needed all that. - Quebec, Canada
