Paradise

Staying at Hermon Pond at Sonya's place was a wonderful experience. She is very welcoming and considerate. The apartment was perfect for 2 people and the view was spectacular. We will definitely go back to this location when we come to Maine again. It was just like being at home. Sonya had the kitchen supplied with coffee and even a bouquet of flowers on the table. ***************

The studio apartment was very clean and in a beautiful location overlooking the lake. The beds mattress could have been of higher quality. However this is not enough to turn me away from renting this place again.

Peaceful and quiet

Sonja’s place was super clean, really really quiet, and quaint. we could see lots of stars at night in her remote location. She was very helpful in making recommendations of places to see in the area. We had our own private entrance, and the check in/out process was super easy. Great place to stay.

The perfect getaway!

Not sure what more you can ask for in a rental - the studio was clean, cozy, and well equipped, the firepit and views over the pond were phenomenal, the location is great, and Sonya is the kindest host who made the whole process so smooth and effortless. Thanks for having us Sonya, we already can’t wait to go back :)

It was even more beautiful than we expected. The host Sonya was so friendly and helpful. I think my sitting by the lake in the mornings and evenings recharged my spirits. Loved the quiet and wildlife available to watch and enjoy.Very close to Bangor.

Highly recommended: Exceeded our expectations in every respect

This is a very clean, quaint and well-appointed studio on the shore of a small and very quiet lake. One thing I did not see elsewhere in the comments, is that in addition to being a very picturesque lake, the swimming is excellent. We enjoyed our stay in every respect, and very much hope to have the opportunity to return.

We are so glad that we found this property! The studio is cozy, quiet, and, peaceful. As a surprise bonus, we could watch the sunset over Hermon Pond right outside. The host was great and made sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again, and would recommend you did as well.

Lakefront property

Perfect location for a secluded stay away from the city of Bangor. The check in/out process was one of the easiest I’ve ever experienced. The space was clean and cozy with ample amount of room to spread out. Sonya was a spectacular host and very accommodating for our needs. We didn’t have time to fully enjoy the lake, but it was a beautiful sight waking up to. Would definitely stay again if in the Bangor area.

Lakeside Retreat

This was a nice place for just the two of us. Nature from the trees and lake outside our window provided an excellent backdrop for our stay. Including Loons calling at night. Our host was super easy to communicate with and suggested things that we might want to do in the area. The rental was clean and we'll maintained. Cooking options were slightly limited without an oven.

THE HOST OFFERED MANY SUGGESTIONS FOR DAY TRIPS. THE AREA HAS OPPORTUNITIES FOR HIKING, FISHING, SHOPPING AND DINING - SOMETHING FOR EVERYBODY.

Wonderful lakeside studio

We really enjoyed our stay! Loved kayaking, birdwatching and relaxing by the fire in the evenings. Hermon Pond is absolutely beautiful and the studio has everything you would need for a comfortable stay. It is spacious, well equipped and comes with a lovely view of the lake. Sonya is a wonderful host - relaxed, communicative and helpful. She had great suggestions to make our stay even more enjoyable. Thank you so much for your hospitality, Sonya! We hope to come again.

This is a delightful apartment on a peaceful lake. The owner shared her kayaks, and my husband and I listened to birds and bullfrogs and saw an American Eagle on our early paddle. The neighborhood was in full bloom (mid-June). The apartment is airy and sunny and feels new (just watch your head when your near the corners!). We were able to park a few feet from the door. The owner is helpful, but doesn’t hover. Our best rental ever!
