Hidden gem

The property felt secluded even though there were neighboring homes nearby. It was quiet and peaceful, lending itself to a very relaxing stay. The home was clean and well maintained and had everything needed for an enjoyable time. The welcome package was detailed and offered lots of information regarding the surrounding area. The beachfront was clean and the lake, beautiful.

Clean and tidy

Cute lake cabin situated on the lake . We came for the Fryeburg Fair and only for the weekend . Unfortunately was not able to enjoy the area but will hit Bridgeton downtown on the way home . Everything was great . I would only prefer a noon check out not 10:00am that’s it 😂

Relaxing on the Lake

We had a delightful and relaxing stay at this charming cottage, which truly captures the essence of lakeside tranquility. I highly recommend this hidden gem for family getaways. The fire pit next to the horseshoe game, set against a sandy backdrop, provides a perfect setting for quality family time.

Great house with plenty of room.

Although we didn’t use any of the attractions—lake, shopping in the cute town of Bridgton, it would have been fun. We were up for our grandson’s wedding. The one suggestion we would make is for the owners to add a dishwasher. Since the tenants are asked to clean, strip beds, etc (despite a hefty cleaning fee that is charged), it would be helpful if there was a dishwasher. Fortunately we only had a couple of glasses a cups to handwash. The owners were vert pleasant and allowed us to check in early. We would recommend this house to others!

Perfect for quiet lake weekend

Spent the weekend for a father son getaway. Water access from the house was great. Really quick ride (< 5 mins) to downtown Bridgeton so we could pop down to a restaurant or bar. Maureen and Bill were friendly, welcoming and gracious hosts. Would stay here again, it was everything we were looking for.

Great lake house

The house was nice for the seven of us and the location on the lake was fantastic. It is nestled in the woods but just a mile walk to a grocery store and downtown area.

Hidden Gem

Everything from the initial booking was perfect! The owners communicated with me right from the start answering lots of questions i had about water access, boat mooring etc. This house was absolutely perfect for our group of 6!! Plus 2 on a night my parents came to visit! There is a short 200ft walk to a private sandy beach only shared with the property owners. The house was clean and well equipped. You dont need to bring anything. It was nice to have a private bathroom away from all the kids. The cove the house is on is super quiet and close enough to a sandbar you can easily kayak to it. We had an incredible stay and have already booked it for next year! Cant wait to get back! Thanks from Travis, Stephanie and all our kids!!!

Perfect Vacation!

Everything was as advertised. The house was clean and welcoming when we arrived. Perfect small beach and dock area where my kids loved swimming and catching fish. Maureen & Bill were helpful with info about the lake and the area. This place is a 5 min drive from downtown Bridgton which made it easy to get groceries, go to Rennys and there are several good restaurants close by as well. Definitely a prime family vacation spot!

Cozy cabin retreat

My family and I were all pleasantly surprised by this cute and cozy cabin. We enjoyed the open kitchen and gathering in the living room together. Even with 7 adults, there was ample room for all. Maureen and Bill are such friendly hosts and easy to communicate with. We had a few requests about our stay and questions about the kayaks out back and they always responded graciously and quickly. The house was also a short drive to the Fryeburg Fair. Peace, quiet, and beautiful lake views...one couldn't ask for more!

Another awesome vacation

We really love this vacation rental. It is clean, comfortable and peaceful. The kitchen is well equipped. It is convenient to Bridgton, too. I love having my morning coffee on the dock , watching the wildlife. Pondicherry park is nice for a walk, we hiked Bald Pate and Hawk mountains. Would highly recommend!

Very nice getaway

The house is very representative of the pictures. The house is not directly on the lake but set back a bit. You have to walk down a path to get to the water. The hosts supplied fishing rods which the kids loved. Access to kayaks and paddle boards as well! Bridgton is a VERY small town. Food options are minimal so come prepared. Chatted with Bill a few times. He was a very good (and funny) host! I would recommend staying at the lake house!

Things that we needed were readily available and even things we forgot to bring were available for use. The location itself is A+++. Would definitely stay again.

Cozy, clean and comfortable cottage in Bridgton

The cottage was perfect for an autumn weekend getaway in Maine. The house was very comfortable for our family of four and in a great location, close to the shops and restaurants in Bridgton. We appreciated the lit fire when we arrived to make us feel at home! The only minor thing that was missing was dishwasher but it was not a problem for our short stay.

We've been enjoying all that Bridgton has to offer for 22 years. We found this lovely town when we used to camp at Point Sebago and decided to make it our permanent home away from home. Our time on Long Lake has given us so many wonderful family memories. We are hoping that staying at this Cabin will create happy memories and have you coming back again for the "best vacation ever".

This home will allow you the opportunity to relax, play and make wonderful memories in a beautiful setting. The property is family-friendly and features a campfire area, basketball hoop, open field in a small lakeside community. The property is immaculately kept, comfortable and cozy. Located in Bridgton, this home embraces that Bridgton is a place for all seasons. we are steps away from the semi-private beach with a sandy shallow entrance. We are available for rental for the entire ski season. Minutes away from Shawnee Peak , within an hour drive to Sunday River and many New Hampshire ski areas.

What makes this property unique

This home has recently been completely updated. The cabin is steps away from the beach, on the snowmobile trails, hiking trails, walking distance to Town and all that it has to offer. 10 minutes from Shawnee Peak ski mountain and less than an hour drive to numerous other ski areas. 25 minutes from North Conway, 45 minutes to Portland and Freeport.
