Highland Lake, NY 12743

Some places are special because of the scenery. Others become special because of the memories made there. Lake DeVenoge is both. Set along the shores of this breathtaking, crystal-clear glacier lake, this inviting four-bedroom, two-bath retreat is a rare opportunity to enjoy a truly beautiful place that has been cherished by generations of lake lovers. Families have been returning here for three and even four generations, drawn back year after year by the clear water, peaceful surroundings, sandy beach, and the simple magic of lake life. Imagine beginning your morning with coffee overlooking the water, spending the afternoon swimming or kayaking from your own private dock, and ending the day gathered around the fire as the sun slips behind the trees. Lake DeVenoge is spring-fed, wonderfully clear, and reaches depths of 80 feet, with rainbow trout and largemouth and smallmouth bass making it a wonderful destination for fishing as well. The home is warm, inviting, and perfectly suited to relaxed lake living. Soaring ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace create a beautiful gathering space, while the open design keeps the lake views at the heart of the home. A screened-in porch offers a quiet place to enjoy the breeze and the scenery, while the newly installed deck is ideal for morning coffee, summer dinners, grilling, and lingering evenings with friends. Step outside and the lake becomes your backyard. Follow the lawn to your private dock, where you can swim, kayak, fish, or simply sit beside the water and take it all in. A cozy fire pit sets the stage for evenings beneath the stars, and a waterside dining platform creates an unforgettable spot for meals overlooking the lake. Just a short distance away, you’ll also have access to the beautiful private sandy beach a special place to spend warm summer days, take a refreshing swim, relax in the sun, or watch another generation discover the joys of lake life. It’s easy to understand why families have returned here for decades. The home is offered fully furnished, including a kayak, grill, lake toys, and other outdoor essentials, so you can arrive, unpack, and start enjoying everything this special place has to offer. And while the lake may make you want to stay all day, there’s plenty to explore beyond it. You’re nestled in the heart of the Catskills, close to Barryville, Narrowsburg, Bethel and Callicoon, with farmers markets, charming shops, restaurants, galleries, hiking, live music, and adventures along the Delaware River all nearby. Yet when you return home, the peaceful beauty of Lake DeVenoge is waiting. This is more than a lake house. It’s a place to slow down, reconnect, spend summer days in the sun, gather around the fire, and create memories that can be carried forward for generations. Come discover the beauty of Lake DeVenoge and the timeless pleasure of having a place of your own on the water.
