Just like last year, this property was perfect for our group! Comfortably fit 10 adults, was clean, and overall as advertised. Owners are very responsive and easy to work with. Safe to say we’ll be back next year!

What a beautiful location! Plenty of room and activities, 15-20 minutes from 2 grocery stores and Gray. Great for elderly visitors and for young kids…we loved canoeing, kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming, and soaking it all in! Thank you for a memorable stay!

Family Gathering

Shady Grove Lake House far exceeded our expectations. The location, about 30 mins from the airport, coast, shopping (Freeport & Portland) was perfect for venturing out. The house was 10 of 10. Well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and the little thoughtful things like dozens of beach towels.

Great place for family vacation

We had a four night getaway and despite the weather (cloudy and some rain) the place had so much to offer. Kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, games for adults and kids, a great kitchen to cook in. Definitely going up again next year!

Relaxing Maine Get Away At The Lake

Excellent stay on the lake

Nice, spacious and very clean home with pretty much everything you’ll need. We didn’t spend a lot of time at the property due to other commitments, but we slept well, and found a little time for canoeing. Katie was very easy to work with. Location was good, with a Hannaford and Walgreens about 4-5 miles away. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect Ice Fishing Stay

7 of us stayed for an annual ice fishing trip. Plenty of sleeping room and space for all of us. House had everything we needed and the center of town was 15 minuets away with every store and restaurant you could ever need! Had plenty of fire wood!!!! Would love to stay again!

Great family vacation.

The location and the lake could not be better. House had all we needed. Great fishing and the kids lived in the water. We had one problem but the owner responded fast and dealt with it. We have done this as a family many times and everyone said this place was the best ever. We all would definitely rent this again.

Shady Grove Lake house

What a beautiful quiet spot on the lake with a great view from the house and docks . Loved the house and all the windows looking towards the lake and plenty of space for all. 1st day an eagle came down right in front and caught a fish. Katie was quick to answer all questions. Thank you for a great week !

Wedding Getaway

We had a wonderful time staying in this beautiful home! We stayed with another couple (family) to attend my nieces wedding. The view walking into the living room is wonderful! The house is very clean, well stocked and so much room to spread out. Plenty of room for girls getaway, guys fishing or family vacation. I'm definitely getting the joy of lake life!! Coffee and tea on the dock was great! Only warning would be that stairs are very steep to lower level. Definitely would love to come here again with our kids and grandkids. Katie is great to work with and was very quick to respond to any questions.

Perfect Weekend!

I surprised my husband with a weekend full of good food, a little drink and a lot of ice fishing with his buddies (late 40’s for reference) and it was beyond all expectations! The house itself is absolutely gorgeous and the view is breathtaking! We were a group of 11 and there was more room than we’d ever need…could have fit 11 more easily without being cramped. We went on a freezing cold and windy February day so we didn’t get to enjoy most of the amenities, but we took advantage of the beautiful fireplace and nice warm blankets they left for us while some of us stayed in, played board and card games that they provided, while the brave, went fishing. I could go on and on but just let me say the house literally had EVERYTHING you could possibly need for kids and/or adults!! Katie answered all my questions in record time and also gave us advice and ideas to help us further when it came to bait, fishing spots and lots more. We would definitely stay again…hopefully when the weather is warmer 🤗

Beautiful lakeside home

Came with extended family for parents 50th anniversary celebration - two 70+adults, four 40+adults, and four children 9-12. The best thing about the property is the location and outside space - right on the peaceful little Sebago lake, with two docks, kayaks, paddle board and fire fit. The water was clear and warm and the kids would have stayed in the water all day if they could. Kayaks were well maintained and lots of little areas to explore. The house itself was beautiful and spacious, with large living space and enough dining space for all if we used the bar or outside space outside. Three rooms for adult couples and one bunk room for kids, as well as another living space downstairs. A couple of drawbacks - house is not airconditioned and we were there in 90 degree weather and it was HOT. This is obviously not the norm for Maine, but it posed a challenge for us. Two bedrooms upstairs had portable units for sleeping, but all the living space and downstairs were still very hot. One couple lived only 20 minutes away, and went home to bring a couple of their own window units so the the kids and third couple could sleep comfortably. Also, two of kids beds and adult bed downstairs were quite uncomfortable, able to feel springs, and we had to put down extra padding on the beds so the kids could sleep. But overall a lovely place, location could not be better, and as long it wasn't so hot, would come back in a heartbeat!

Why they chose this property

Perfect for family vacation, a getaway with friends, or a flex-cation/new work from home spot with gorgeous views and free wifi :)

What makes this property unique

Pull onto the dirt road and drive 1 mile to reach Shady Grove. Walk into a beautiful open floor plan upstairs with windows across the entire length of the home - almost as if you're sitting on top of the lake. Incredibly quiet and peaceful and you may just see a loon swim by as you look at the window over coffee in the morning. Two family rooms make it spacious and comfortable and the downstairs is perfect for kids watching a movie or playing while the parents can entertain upstairs.
