A Vibrant Lakeside Community in the
​Beautiful Foothills of the Appalachian Mountains

​The Town of Highland welcomes you to its website and invites you to visit our beautiful home, nestled in the mountains and situated around a 257-acre lake with 15 miles of shoreline.  This picturesque town is a vibrant community with both full-time residents and property owners whose vacation homes are a welcome break during the summer months and weekends from their busy lives in the city.  Property owners hail from Alabama and at least 12 other states.  Both homefolk and visitors share a love of the natural beauty of the mountain lake community which features wildlife, fishing, boating, and many varieties of flora and fauna.
