Bord de l'eau privé Cottage sur Pristine Pond dans Lacs du Maine

My family and I stayed in this house for a week. We have 2 boys ages 14 and 10 and this was the exact type of house we were looking for while going to for some rest and relaxation in Maine. The owners are awesome with communication and making you feel welcome in the home. The house was super clean and is charming. The house has a bit of a cabin feel with wood paneling and handrails, but has modern touches like mostly newer appliances and newer windows that were easy to open and close. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware, cutlery, and dishware to feed large families and the large country sink makes clean up very easy. If you still need WiFi, there is a good connection along with cable TV if that is important. My older son quickly learned how the Google Chromecast worked. The house is also well stocked with good games and books. The bathroom is recently updated and really clean. There was a first aid kit and box or tools if any such need arises. Smoke alarms are all over the house, and there are fire extinguishers in key areas. The outside deck is beautiful and overlooks the pond below. My wife and I would sip on coffee on that deck in the morning looking at any activity on the pond or a regular visit from the hummingbirds coming to feed. There are binoculars left to view the loons on the water or chipmunks running around. The dock down below has some comfortable seating to hang out down at the water. Sometimes we just sat down on the dock or the large swing at the waterside. The water is crystal clear. The kids and I swam out to the floating dock and when we looked over the side, we could see the bottom of the pond that had to be at least 9 feet deep. The water in the house was clean well water. Although we filter water at home, we drank the cold water straight from the taps at this house. Poland Spring isn't that far from this house for good reason. The grill on the deck is a high quality Weber. The kayaks and canoe were good for family outings on the pond. If coming to this area we also highly recommend visiting Ogunquit beach about 45 minutes away...especially at low tide if you have kids that love the water. There are also some decent restaurants in the area and plenty of good ice cream spots. (The quality and choices of ice cream at "The Mosquito" was good.) Overall, our stay was excellent. We shared our experience in the house guestbook where other families left their stories and experiences as well. Thanks again!!

Lovely property, well maintained and very clean cottage decorated in New England style with a cozy, homey feel. Beds very comfortable, great tasting well water, many extra's including well stocked kitchen and pantry. Lake water and area clean, with available use of 2 kayaks, 2 canoes, inner tubes, life vests, toys for children including fishing poles! Sheila and Kerry could not have been more helpful with recommendations of what to do, where to eat, where to see beautiful sunsets etc. We definitely will rent this home again, and recommend this cottage. We wish we lived closer

We had a wonderful, relaxing vacation in this beautiful, cozy lakefront cottage. The owner Sheila was wonderful to work with, very responsive and accommodating. The house itself was very clean and well-furnished - it is clear that the house is loved and well-cared for. The beds were very comfortable, kitchen well-equipped with modern appliances, cozy living room, convenient washer and dryer. One of the things that was most impressive was the considerateness and meticulous attention to detail by the owners to ensure that we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay, including a welcome basket. Some of the highlights included the incredible view of the lake from the deck, drinking coffee and enjoying meals on the deck, making smores over the firepit and sitting around the fire, kayaking and canoeing on Coffee Pond, the children’s playroom in the basement which was well-stocked with toys and games. The house was conveniently located for different activities, including the Maine Wildlife Park, beaches, hiking, grocery stores. We also took a day trip to Old Orchard Beach. This house was a true gem and we look forward to returning again in the future.
