About this property

Family waterfront retreat

Come on "upta camp" with family and friends for your next vacation! Located on Little Bear Pond, this home is the perfect destination for families looking to unwind and relax in a lovely natural setting.

Whether you're looking for a peaceful paddle, a quick dip, or s'mores over the fire, our family-friendly lakefront home is the perfect destination for you!

With three bedrooms and two baths, this home is perfect for extended family gathering or multi-family vacations. Kids will enjoy swimming in the pond and some of the best bass fishing in the area just off the shore. Adults and kids alike will love the fleet of three canoes & two kayaks and just relaxing with your toes in the water. For foodies, the 2023 James Beard award winning Nezinscot Farm is just 12 minutes away. For those who want some action away from the water, Turner Highlands golf course is just 10 minutes away, and there are several day hikes within a 20 minute drive of the home.

Very pleased with cleanliness of the place.

Wished we asked more questions before booking. With 6 people, we only had one decent kayak to use. We were hoping to have a kayak ride as a group and that wasn't possible. 2 of the canoes were in excellent condition. The wooden steps at the bottom of the hill leading to the dock/water were very dangerous for 4 of us who were 60+ years old. It would be nice to have a flat place to sit with our chairs at the water, but realize that may not be possible on that property. The deck was great to have meals as a group, as was the dining room table. The living/dining area was very clean, comfortable and relaxing. Great selection of dishware, pans, etc. (Just for your info there was 1 cracked plate that we didn't use; should be tossed). The toilet was leaking upon arrival and we left a cloth there so it didn't leave a puddle. (Didn't affect our stay). On the day of departure we noticed the pipe being held together with duct tape under the kitchen sink was leaking. Was very pleased with plenty of towels and other linens.
