When you dream about breaking away from reality and escaping to the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains, think of Mitchell's Lodge & Cottages.  From our 4118 ft. elevation, we have been a part of Highlands, NC history since 1939, when were were known as Mitchell's Motel.  For three generations, the Mitchell family has been welcoming guests and has seen Highlands grow from a small mountain town to an exclusive resort which offers quaint shops and specialty boutiques, summer theatre, art galleries, chamber music, exquisite dining and many other cultural attractions. From your first visit we know you will want to vacation here again.
