Bearfoot Dreams — 2,300 Sq Ft Lakefront Log Cabin on Highland Lakes’ Largest Lake | 4BR • 3 Baths • Near Mountain Creek

Welcome to Bearfoot Dreams, a breathtaking 2,300 sq. ft. chestnut log cabin set directly on the largest lake in Highland Lakes — and the highest elevation lake in New Jersey. Less than an hour from NYC, this four season lakefront retreat delivers the rare combination of true waterfront living, architectural craftsmanship, and year round adventure.

This is not just a cabin. It is a lakefront sanctuary where guests return year after year.

The Experience

Wake up to shimmering water views from nearly every room. Spend summer days swimming, kayaking, and lounging on the private dock. Watch fall foliage explode across the lake. Skate outside your back door in winter, then warm up by the stone fireplace. In spring, enjoy peaceful mornings with coffee on the covered deck as the woods come alive.

Whether you’re planning a ski weekend, a summer lake escape, or a cozy winter retreat, Bearfoot Dreams is designed for unforgettable moments.
