Cozy cottage in peaceful location

We enjoyed our 4 night stay in this comfy cottage. We saw a bald eagle along with a heron, ducks, and deer. Canoeing on the pond was a highlight too.

Family Getaway

Katy touched base before our arrival and was easy to get ahold of. The place had all you need for an enjoyable family of 4 getaway. Kennebunkport and Portland are a quick drive away.

Great place

We thought that this would be a nice place from the listing, but it exceeded expectations. Nicely redesigned and renovated small house for a couple with all the right touches. Beautiful pond steps from the door for canoeing, kayaking or fishing. Great just to hang out but also a good jumping off point for Biddeford, Saco, Portland and other coastal towns. We have rented places around the world and this is up there with the best.

Property overlooks a beautiful lake. Opposite shore is forested and leaves were in autumn colors. Loons were heard calling across the lake. Comfortable furniture and good basic kitchen supplies made stay easy. Bathroom is well appointed with modern shower. Bedroom is a little small but comfortable. Good wifi, and convenient desk for working.

Ultimate peace and quiet 💚

From booking, to checking in, and checking out everything was simple as could be. The cottage itself was great, better than expected actually, bigger too as far as the common areas go. The view was spectacular. I was literally taking pictures at 5am one morning while the fog was rolling out, if I could upload I would. Keep in mind, roads are a bit rough - not an issue for me as I lived on Lake Arrowhead for many years. I'd rent again and definitely recommend to others.

Wadleigh Pond 7/29-8/6

Great stay all around. Cottage was immaculate and well appointed. Perfect for our needs. The pond was great for swimming/floating/kayaking. Peaceful surroundings and not far from all amenities. Katy and Richard were very quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Highly recommend. So much so that we are staying again in September.

Wonderful, comfy house with beautiful views

I loved this place and it's tranquil views of the water. It was perfect for us. The water was warm in July so easy to swim and get in the boat. The owner was very nice and communicative. Would love to come back!

Relaxing getaway

My husband and I stayed here for 5 days, it was the perfect relaxing trip. It's very clean, tastefully decorated and with all the windows over looking the pond just completed the trip. Katy was very sweet and accommodating. Would definitely stay again.

Comfy cabin ... close to all

The location and accessibility to the water was great! The kids had a blast on the kayaks while we watched from the canoe. The John boat was perfect for fishing and picture taking. The set up of the cabin is relaxing and quite spacious for a family of four. It is clean, thoughtfully loaded with games, and featured gorgeous views. The fire pit was a perfect place for s’mores and family time.

About the host

Hosted by Katy Smith

My husband Ric and I purchased this and invested time and money making it the retreat of our dreams and we are happy to share it with you. We have saved for years to be able to afford a second home - and we were blessed to find this magical place. the home will be renovated this winter and ready to enjoy early spring- we have hand picked every light fixture, and design element to create a great escape and we are excited to share this with you.

Why they chose this property

The Views are amazing and the pond is a special place- wake up to the bird chirping and it is not unusual to spy eagles. While you are tucked away you are a close drive to Kennebunk shops and beaches as well as trial and other adventures.
