***Owner's Description of Waterfront***
_“The highlight of the water frontage is the large deck, right at the water's edge and with a beautiful view across the pond.
There is a fairly flat area adjacent to the deck, but it is not sandy. Depending on the water level, there is sometimes a small sandy area at this lower level. Going straight out, the slope is gradual and sandy for maybe 25ft, then it becomes more muddy underfoot. On either side of the sandy area, reeds and lilies grow up in the Summer. So there is an area of lake that is sandy underfoot, maybe 10ft wide and stretching about 25 ft into the lake, depending on the water level you could swim out from there.
We have a 20ft long dock (summer only) which is good for fishing, or sunbathing when the deck is in shade. The water is not deep enough to dive from the dock. The water is about 3ft deep at the end of the dock, depending on lake level.
We do not have a swim dock. There is an association swim dock nearby, maybe a 100yd swim or kayak away, that visitors are welcome to use (summer only).”_

wonderful weekend!

Lovely property, my kids husband and I were lucky enough to have the most beautiful weather for Labor day weekend! we enjoyed the lake, surrounding events/views/activities, sitting by the fire at night listening to the loons and star gazing and fishing from the dock at night. Just a heads up for others with littles considering booking, the shower is a bit difficult to get kids washed up too young to be able to shower, without literally being in the shower with them. Overall great weekend, would book again!

Peaceful pond

My family loved our time on Pea Porridge Pond! The house was well-equipped and comfortable. The canoe and kayaks were in good shape; we had tons of fun paddling all over the pond. We caught a few large bass off the dock! Everything was really great with our stay!

Quick get away

My son and stayed for 3 nights and other than all the rain while we were there, it was a nice place to stay. Lake is so peaceful and the use of kayaks and canoe was perfect. Lots of areas to sit and enjoy lake views. Would recommend.

Summer oasis

We just got back from a week at this lovely property. The house was tidy and comfortable. The pond was clean and beautiful. We loved kayaking/canoeing daily and also we brought floats and enjoyed them as well. The deck overlooking the pond was the best part by far. Beautiful views that we enjoyed all day. The kids bedroom was perfect sized and since we only have two kids they got to pick which of the three beds was theirs for the week. The air conditioning, especially in the bedrooms was greatly appreciated. We love our stay and hope to come back again next summer.

Conway getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The lake was beautiful and very peaceful. We were so grateful for the canoe and kayaks and used them daily. Lovely place in the woods. The cabin was very clean. I found the furniture to be very worn and “cabinesque.” It probably wouldn’t bother most people but I covered them with spare sheets I brought. For the price they charge they could provide the convenience of a lockbox for keys. It’s a short drive to pick up and drop off but I feel for the expense of the rental they could provide this convenience. Very inconvenient especially when leaving since we had to back track and there is usually a bit of traffic in that area. Kitchen could use a crock pot, blender, coverable storage containers. Location made the inconveniences nothing. Absolutely beautiful and quiet location.

Tranquil Waterfront Property

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed for five days and enjoyed the peaceful nature of this tranquil lake property. Watched the sun rise over the lake and enjoyed using the kayaks, paddling around this beautiful setting. The air-conditioning worked great on a couple of hot days, making for a comfortable house. Close by to all the area has to offer, including a wide range of hiking trails. The general store in Madison has all the essentials, including some great pizza. Enjoyed our stay, would definitely return.

Beautiful, yet rainy week

Even with 4 out of 7 days in a downpour, it was clean and serene by the water. October, most of the colors had changed but the location to shopping, restaurants and tourist sights. The days doing nothing but reading by the wood stove were exactly what they were supposed to be.

Relaxing and good sleeping, love the gas stove!

Yes would recommend to friends. Only thing would suggest is to perhaps fix the bathroom fan and the refrigerator is a bit too loud, otherwise lovely property! Thank you for having us!

Loved the lake

I was impressed with the views and location. I had a little bad luck but really those things happen so it wasn't to big of a deal. The BBQ grill only had one working burning leaving a very small space to grill on (took it apart and cleared issue) then the igniter on the outdoor fire pit did not work and replaced the battery with no luck (bought a long lighter at store and that worked) and finally we really had plans for the dock that was described and pictured but for some reason it was removed for the winter (before Oct) but it is what it is. Property was beautiful though so I guess I cant complain to much, the family loved the trip...

Fantastic

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Cabin style, nothing fancy, but with everything that you could want! Loved sitting by the lake at all hours of the day. Amazing view of the stars at night. We loved using the boats to explore the lake. Everything was very well maintained. I will admit it was kind of a pain to have to bring along sheets and towels and toilet paper and such (rental management company policy), but it was not as barren as expected. Either previous renters left stuff behind or the owners went out of their way to supply some things. Either way, we were not wanting for anything. We would go back in a heartbeat.

Wonderful waterfront location

My family and I loved this property. The home was clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend. I wish check in and check out didn't involve going to a real estate office but that was just a minor inconvenience. I was also surprised that we were responsible for getting rid of the trash and recyclables. Nonetheless, the location more than made up for these inconveniences. I miss hearing the loons at dusk and kayaking the day away.
