Perfect house for a family vacation

This is the second time we stay at Shelby’s Lake House. We love it! The house has enough space to accommodate everyone’s needs. The back deck is our favorite place to hang out and share meals when the weather is nice. Lake Megunticook is a great lake - super clean and not too busy. This is our all-time favorite rental property. Thank you for sharing it with us, Shelby!

Wonderful stay!

We stayed here for 4 nights on a senior girls trip (5 graduates, 3 moms). The house is perfectly equipped with plenty of cooking tools, towels, blankets, lots of seating and room for sleeping. Special touches were an area binder with lots of suggestions for area activities and some eateries, and a basket with s’more goods for roasting. One note for bird watchers: the road behind the house is a bit loud for Merlin. We absolutely loved our stay and appreciate all the excellent communication and hospitality!

Perfect stay!

The cottage was everything I’d hoped for and more! Located on a beautiful spot on the lake, equipped with everything we could possibly need, impeccably clean and wonderfully decorated. It’s very convenient to Camden, but far enough out to feel peaceful and remote when you’re down by the lake. We had a tremendous week!

Wonderful Stay

My family and I very much enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. The views of the lake were great. We enjoyed swimming in the lake and also the hiking trails which offered additional spectacular views of the lake and its surroundings. The house is well appointed and it is located close to the towns of Camden, Lincolnville, Rockport and Rockland where we enjoyed the restaurants and shops. I highly recommend this beautiful lake house.

Wonderful stay on the lake!

We had an amazing time at this amazing property! The host thought of everything and the property was well stocked and maintained. The layout was perfect for our extended family. The location on the lake was great and we spent a portion of each day in and on the water. Our day trip to Acadia was breeze. This property has everything we needed and more and the host was wonderful to work with!

Magnificent!

This was our second stay at this wonderful home and it was magnificent! It is close to Camden, as well as several other towns offering easy opportunities for sightseeing. This property offered kayaks for fun excursions around the beautiful lake islands and a firepit for delicious s'mores! The sunsets were breathtaking and the early morning quiet and beauty of the lake while sitting on the dock are not to be forgotten.

Wonderful 10 days

I shared this property with my kids, their spouses and one spouse's parents. There was lots of room, and we all had a good time. It was wonderful to have the lake right outside the door and I was even able to bring my dog with me. He loved going into the lake each day (it was hot out!!). Overall a great experience!!

Amazing stay in Lincolnville!

We had a wonderful stay at this house in Lincolnville! The house is beautifully appointed, cozy, and in the most picturesque setting, right on Lake Megunticook. I could sit out on the deck and look at the lake all day. We swam and kayaked off the dock, made s’mores over the fire pit, and enjoyed every minute of our stay. The house is a quick five minute drive into Camden and an easy drive to Rockland and Belfast. The house was stocked with every amenity, even board games for the one rainy day! Shelby was very helpful and answered all of our questions. What a perfect stay in Maine!

This House is Awesome!

This was our second stay at this wonderful lake house, and it was just as good the second time. It's great to be right on the water, as it provides a constant source of entertainment for everyone, but especially the kids. We are a large group with six kids, and there was always someone swimming, kayaking, or just sitting on the dock. The house has an open floor plan with lots of light and great views. So it's easy for people to spread out and be relaxed. It's close to Camden and Mount Battie; there's fishing, hiking, sailing - what more could you ask for?

Another great week in Maine!

We had a great time during our stay. The location is a double-edged sword. It was nice being close to all that the mid-coast has to offer, but the house is on a very busy road. We got used to the road noise quickly but it is loud when you are lounging outside. The house was well equipped for all our needs with plenty of things to do. The gas fireplace inside was a favorite as we had a few days of Maine weather--we also made good use of the outside fire pit. Overall, great experience.

August 2024 stay at the Lakehouse

Our family (5 adults, 4 children under 12) just spent a delightful week in late August 2024 at the Lakehouse in Lincolnville, very near to Camden, Maine. The house is very well appointed, full of light, faces west and is within ~30 feet of Megunticook Lake. The lake shore in front of the house features a large dock, kayaks, and a floating dock off the shore. The lake is very quiet, few motorboats, and the shore opposite the house is undeveloped, no houses to spoil the view, and the sunsets are beautiful. Nearby are the towns of Camden (4 miles) and Rockland (12 miles); and 2 hiking trails (and a car road) lead to Mount Battie above the house, the highest point in Camden Hills State Park with a wonderful view of Penobscot Bay. In sum, we were very pleased with our vacation on the lake. The Valentines

Great week on the lake!

We really enjoyed our stay. The house is lovely and the lake views are beautiful. Road noise was a little bothersome when sitting on the dock or by the fire pit at night trying to hear the loons, but, no issue indoors. The property manager and/or house cleaner could probably use a little nudge. Most of the house was immaculate, but, the drawers in the master bathroom had not been cleaned, there was hair and debris as well as the last guest’s makeup bag in the drawers and the molding was dirty. Also, one of the the kayak paddles was missing. However, we contacted the owner and it was replaced quickly. The owner was very responsive throughout the process and resolved things quickly. Would definitely recommend this for some lakeside R&R.

An Incredible Maine Vacation

Family of four and we spent a week. And we didn't leave the house much at all.... Well stocked kitchen. Clean. Great layout of the house. Plenty of books and games for family fun. Great views of the lake. Appreciated the kayaks. Grill was working perfectly. The retractable awning was a game changer, as it was hot a couple of days we really needed it. One of our favorite houses on Megunticook. It took about a day to get used to the traffic. Was not a problem. Hiking is right up the road. Perfect location. I cannot say enough good things about this house. We rarely stay at the same property twice, but this one could change my mind. Thank you so much, Shelby!

Amazing Family Vacation!!

We recently stayed at hte lake house with our 2 young children and parents for the week and can't stop saying how wonderful it was! The owners thought of everything and we never felt like something was missing. We had all the dishes, supplies that we could ever need for the week. Right down to the lobster dinner supplies! They had 3 kayaks and life vests for us to use and we didn't leave the water for the first 4 days we were there. Great location and close to everything. 5 minutes to downtown Camden, Rockport and Rockland close by. You can spend days exploring the beautiful lake or head to the ocean for a totally different experience. My husband and I ran or biked almost every day. THe lake is beautiful and clean! The owners were wonderful about answering any questions we had during our stay and paid attention to all the details. We will be heading back next summer for sure! The house is on a busy road, but they did a great job with fencing that shields you from it. We were very careful with our children and made sure they never went on the road side of the house.

About the host

Hosted by Shelby Mahan

Host profile image
We grew up in Camden and still consider this area "home", coming back every summer since leaving in 1995. Our children don't know a summer without coming to Maine and spending time on the lake. They say "Home is where the heart is" and this is definitely it for us!

Why they chose this property

We spent 14 years renting a variety of other properties on the lake, but jumped at the chance to buy this Lake House when it came on the market. It had all the space we could possibly ask for and was on one of the most beautiful parts of the lake we had always known and loved. After a winter of renovation we now have our "Happy Place"...

What makes this property unique

Looking out across the lake and straight onto Fernald's Neck Preserve ensures the best views are not impeded. Windows from every room in the house and western exposure brings the very best afternoon light and gorgeous sunsets. Plenty of space for everyone, even on a rainy day, with living areas up and down, loft area with games galore and huge couch in the reading nook area ensures comfort for all.

With spending so many years renting ourselves we have really tried to provide everything one could possibly want and need during a vacation. Just show up and start enjoying!
