Weekend regroup

The property was just as advertised. Clean and very spacious. The view of the lake from the house were amazing. My girlfriend and I absolutely loved the setup. When we arrived we say out at the dock in the late evening and enjoyed the tranquility of both the water and the stars. Next evening we had a nice fire and a few cocktails. Just relaxing and listening to some music. We both highly recommend this property to a family/ friends or if you are just looking to spend some peaceful time with the one you love.

Outstanding!

Perfect week spent with family and our two pooches! House had everything we needed. Location was great. Firepit and party lights kept us outside at night. We rented their jet skis which was key. We also rented a pontoon boat from Parker’s Boathouse right down the street. Grocery and liquor stores close by for quick runs. Tejay, the homeowner, was responsive and informative. Already looking at available weeks for next summer!

Another great week at the lake

Second time here and it was every bit as good as the first. This place has everything you need both inside and outside. The firepit is great- lots of chairs for everyone to gather round and have those evening chats.

Super swimming on lake

Our stay with family was a great time! The outside area with fire pit, large picnic tables and dock was the very best part. We were lucky with the weather for most of our stay. Took day trips to Portland and Kennebunkport, so centrally located for that. Master suite was huge. We did pay the kayak fee, so we made sure to use them. I do think the fee was a bit high but since weather cooperated, they got daily use. This is a great spot for families!

Great Mousam Lakehouse

We had a wonderful stay at this Lakehouse. The house was clean and the kitchen is spacious and well equipped for cooking. The outside area across the street is set up perfectly with plenty of seating around the fire pit - exactly as shown in the photos. Most days not a single car drove by the house, so crossing the street is not a concern at all. The dock is perfect for lounging in the sun and swimming and the lake is great for kayaking. Would definitely rent again.

Eagle’s Nest

Beautifully laid out property in and out. The Jet Ski and Kayaks are top of the line and easy to use. The dock area is well thought out and in perfect condition. My only suggestion is there is no kitchen above the stove vent. We set off the smoke alarm, three days cooking bacon and or sausage. But it sure got the kiddos up and out of bed, after a good nights rest. We would love to return to this same vacation home another time.

Gorgeous Property on a Splendid Lake!

My wife, three adult children, and two dogs had a WONDERFUL time at this beautiful property! Clean, spacious, and tranquil—the perfect spot to get away from it all and rest. Definitely rent the jet skis! My kids were on the lake everyday! I gave “location and neighborhood” four out of five stars because, while being right on the lake was exceptional and the neighbors that I met were so nice, Shapleigh itself is in the middle of nowhere. So, if you are looking to spend some time in a cute town in Maine, dining and shopping for souvenirs, just be prepared to take a 40 minute trip into Kennebunkport—it is an adorable area with great shops! And I wholeheartedly recommend Pablo’s!!! Fantastic Mexican food and ambiance. So, overall, perfect house, perfect lake, awesome jet skiing, delightfully peaceful spot, Hannaford Supermarket very close—but be ready to hit another town if you want some cute shops and restaurants. Thank you for the wonderful rest, fun on the lake, and family memories!!!!

Ice Fishing Jackpot

We visited to ice fish on Mousam Lake. We were not disappointed! Caught many fish and enjoyed the beautiful lake in the winter. House was very clean and had lots of space. Great for our group of 6. Host was very communicative and helpful! We just may be back next winter!

Beautiful home on the lake!

We enjoyed our stay in this lake home. It is very clean and cozy. We spent much of our time outside fishing and by the campfire. Everything went smooth with the owner. Only downfall was finding a decent restaurant open nearby as everything shuts down this time of year. Next we would need to be more prepared but it was last minute so we can’t complain. Five stars otherwise. Thank you.

Best lakehouse vacation!

Our three dogs were welcomed at this great location! Even the neighbors are so very nice ! Beautiful lake House very comfortable and clean Huge master BR! The firepit bbq outdoor area is perfect Tejay came immediately to unlock kayaks which we did not get a chance to use after all - we just ran out of days at this great house Jetski worked perfectly and was a highlight of the vacation My ONLY suggestion is the kitchen needs upgrade for pots/pans and there is a leaking bowl Such minor things compared to other places we have stayed. Other than that minor thing this place is so great!
