Fantastic place with thoughtful owners, beautifully designed and well appointed. Fabulous views and lake access, private dock, and a charming boathouse renovated as a bunkhouse. Couldn’t be more charming.

Always promise sunny lake weather! We had bad luck in that regard. But we were working too hard as well to take advantage of this nice place.

Perfect with so many places to relax
What a perfect place. So nicely set up for maximum relaxation. Fishing was great. Not a lot of fish but when they hit they were monsters. First one landed was a 5.4 llb smallmouth!! We bright way too much stuff because they had everything we needed right there. We’ve been renting for over a decade and this is a house we’d return to. Thank you Paul and Jen!!

Great house
The house was immaculate and homey, there was room for everyone and even spaces that we never touched simply because we had no need to. There are 3 tables inside the house alone, another table in the little shed/house, and another table in the netted gazebo structure. Bathrooms feel like luxury in a lake cabin in Maine. The backdrop is stunning, with mountains in the background and the beautiful lake. The beach is a 5-10 minute kayak ride away and is large with a floating dock to do some cannonballs. We had a great time, thanks for the memories!

Mountain Lake House
We are a group of 6 Ages 19-54 and stayed for a week. The house and property are very well maintained. You can tell the owners take a lot of pride in the property. They thought of everything you would need for a vacation at the lake. They even went as far as to supply us with spring water due to heavy rain that could have affected the water. They supplied everything needed for the charcoal and gas grill. Wood for the fire pit. The lake water is clear and clean. Unfortunately we could only enjoy the lake a day and a half, because of the rain. There was plenty of room for us to spread out. The boys loved sleeping in the bunk house right on the water. We used the screened porch to eat and play games due to the weather. Easy check in and great communication with owner. I would highly recommend this property.

Really relaxing well equipped property
This house is fantastic has everything you could ask for even the shower gel was really relaxing. You feel really secluded on the property even though there are some houses around you barely notice anyone else. Sleeping in the bunk house with the screen door you feel like you are sleeping on the lake. The house is equipped with everything fishing rods kayaks and paddle board and all the indoor and outdoor games you could need. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating areas for everyone to find there own little slice of tranquility right beside the lake. The lake itself is quiet crystal clear and beautiful. A++

Comfortable quarters and beautiful location
We loved the separate bunk house, all the seating options, 2 screened areas for "outdoor" meals. Cooked out on the grill almost every night, and loved having fires and music at the fire pit! It was also great to have so many options for getting out on the water! All in all, a great property with many amenities... no complaints at all!

Gorgeous and peaceful
We had a wonderful 2-week stay! The house is very well appointed and perfectly suited to the beautiful lake and view of the mountains. We never got tired of being in the water and hanging out on the porch listening to the loons. Even the neighbors were sweet and invited my son to play in their grandson's sandbox whenever he wanted while we were there. Be aware that you'll need all-wheel drive for the dirt roads around the property, there was a rainstorm while we were there and we were glad to have the extra control on some washed-out areas! But nothing you wouldn't expect in the woods of Maine.

Fall family gathering
We had nice fall weather which was excellent for enjoying this property, with all its outdoor features: the boathouse, screen porch with dining table, fire pit, paddling and swimming in the lake. The house and lawn were nice and tidy, with plenty of linens etc. Although there were other houses close by, it was quiet and peaceful. Nice stargazing at night! All in all we were very comfortable and enjoyed our little getaway.

The relaxing reset I was looking for
I brought my teen son and nephew up for the weekend to do some mountain biking, and never felt like leaving the property. It’s so beautiful and has everything you could possibly need. I spend most of my time there sitting by the water with a blanket and disconnecting from the noise of a busy. We did in fact mountain bike at Sugarloaf which was outstanding as well. Will be back for sure, but will be bringing more family, so they can experience it too. Thank you for providing such a beautiful space for others to enjoy .

Perfect Lake House
From the moment we saw this lovely property on VRBO we thought it was too good to be true -/ but happily, in our case, the actual property lived up to the advertisement. Plenty of room for me, my husband, and two teenagers plus a swim off dock and kayaks and a paddle board to use at will. There was even a “he~shed” where my college bound high school Junior could work on his portfolio. The house was clean and well-appointed: Every time we thought ‘it would be nice to have X’ we would look and — voila! X would be there. Nice area for strolling, perfect temperature of water, lovely lake to look at and the sound of the loons every night. Cannot say enough good things about this house! (Only detriment was that it was advertised as having a lobster pot but it didn’t have one — we borrowed from my aunt so all was well — that’s why 4/5 stars for “as advertised”) Can’t wait to come back next year! Thanks Jenn and Paul!
