Highland Springs, Lake County, California
Highland Springs (formerly Highland) is a set of springs which was turned into a resort in the 19th century in Lake County, California.

In the 1920s its popularity waned, the hotel was partly burned, and it passed through various hands before the county claimed eminent domain, bought the property, and flooded it with the Highland Springs Reservoir. The reservoir is surrounded by the Highland Springs Recreation Area, managed by the county. Location The Highland Springs are southwest of Kelseyville.

Highland Springs, Virginia
Highland Springs is a census-designated place (CDP) located in Henrico County, Virginia, United States, East of Richmond. The population was 16,604 at the 2020 census. History Edmund Sewell Read founded the community of Highland Springs in the 1890s as a streetcar suburb of Richmond on the Seven Pines Railway Company's electric street railway line between the city and the Seven Pines National Cemetery. There, many Union dead were interred, primarily as a result of battles nearby during the Civil War (1861–1865), most notably during the Peninsula Campaign of 1862. The potential traffic of visiting families to the Richmond area from out-of-town needing transportation to and from the cemetery was a motivating factor for inception of the new street railway. Read came to the area from Boston in hopes of finding a suitable climate for his ailing wife. The natural springs in the area made it a suitable choice for the Read family, and apparently an inspiration for the new name. App ...
