The cottage and the location are absolutely beautiful. We spent our week reading on the dock and exploring Long Pond via kayak. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed for the week. The kitchen was well-appointed and had all the utensils and pots/pans you could need. We've already booked for next year!
What a wonderful house this is! The house is clean and well stocked with a gorgeous view of the pond. We heard the loons every day. Kayaking on the pond was so peaceful. We love to hike and there a dozen nice trails within 30 minutes. Our little beagle had fun too!
Have stayed at this place several times before and it never disappoints! Perfect location on the water, great fishing and a wonderful way to take a relaxing vacation! All around perfect vacation!!
This cottage was awesome! It was quite chilly while we were there so we did not go in the lake. But the cottage itself was very cozy and comfortable. It had every supply that you could possibly need. We had our two fur babies with us and they loved it. The dirt road goes on forever - we took walks on the dirt road every morning and evening. It was beautiful.
Scott was very responsive to any of my questions . Looking at at the lake from the screened in porch,and the living room was an amazing view of the lake and so serene. I would highly recommend this cottage as a place to stay in the spring, summer and/or fall!
Thanks Scott for sharing this beautiful piece of heaven with us!
We had a great time in Maine and this property was absolutely beautiful. It was exactly as described on Vrbo. We communicated with Scott the owner when needed and he was very responsive to our questions. The location was central to local shopping for groceries (Dayâs). The property was also within 30 mins to other towns that were of interest. Nice weather allowed us to hike some of the local trails, and the views were over the top. We were able to see the northern lights right from the dock. Overall a great relaxing vacation and stay. Thanks
Everything about the property and location is conducive to quiet and peaceful rest. Be as active as you choose or just sit and look.
If you are considering this property or others with this host you will not be disappointed
We enjoyed the serenity of the pristine lakefront property. Scott replied immediately to some minor issues, and overall everything provided in the cabin was practical and comfortable. We rented a small motor boat nearby and were able to dock it at the cabin. I even caught a good sized bass right from the dock!
This was one of the best places I have stayed. Two friends of mine and I usually do a girls paddle week at the lake. This year, my husband was with me for the first part of the week and friends arrived for second part. All was great! The lake, the kayaking (we had our own) and the peacefulness of Long Pond. We were all so happy with this cabin! It had everything we needed and was pristine! Thank you Scott for a great week!!
The cottage and its location were perfect for us. We brought our kayaks and explored almost every corner of the large lake during our week stay. The lake is relatively calm, the water is crystal clear and great for swimming. The dock is a great place to relax and catch the morning sun. The cottage had everything we needed!
This cottage was absolutely perfect for our vacation getaway! It was very comfortable - nicely decorated, and the porch overlooking the lake was our favorite place to hang. The one small drawback was that the dish network was out (probably from recent storms) but that wasn't a big deal for us. We loved every minute of our stay!
Weâve been vacationing in the Belgrade lakes for the past 5 years. We usually like to mix it up and change lakes and find new places. I donât think we will be doing that anymore. We have found the perfect spot and plan to return to this house next year. We loved it!
Have stayed at this house before, loved it then and loved it this time too! Perfect location! Had everything we needed!
It was the perfect vacation! Day trips to all the "touristy" places and then returned to the peace and quiet! Our family had great success fishing and were able to moor the boat right at the dock in front of the house! Our family has stayed at Scott's neighboring property and it is equally perfect! Will definitely stay there again!
Our stay at the Belgrade Lakes cabin was the perfect way to celebrate our sonâs graduation. The setting is remote and peaceful. The porch overlooking the lake was the perfect space to hang out with our adult kids and catch up.
The birdwatching was fun - we saw, loons, owls and egrets while eating dinner on the porch- the view of the lake is really special!
The cabin is super tidy and has everything you need to serve a meal for five. Itâs also decorated in a cute fishing theme - although we didnât hook any- we know they were there.
The kids had a golf outing at Belegrade Lakes. We dined at Slates in Hallowell, the Woodshed in Manchester and Front and Main in Waterville- all the outings were unique and special- although a bit far away. My only regret is that I didnât have a few more days to hang out, fish and draw and soak up this beautiful spot.
The cottage was lovely and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. We explored the lake by kayak and motor boat. It was easy to rent a boat from the folks at Castle Island; they
We canât say enough about this cottage. Tastefully updated. Private. Amazing screened in porch with panoramic views of the lake. Perfect dock + floating dock combo. Tucked away in a nice little cove with perfect temperate water and terrain for swimming. Weâve stayed at 5 different spots on Belgrade Lakes and this was our favorite. A bit of a drive to town but still worth it. If we could do over, would rent a fishing boat from Castle Island and that would negate the distance from town by giving a straight across the lake option for errands or dinner/ice cream.
Would recommend to all!
Every corner of the lakeside cottage was adorable and charming, with every room having architectural detail and on point decor. Immaculately clean with a beautiful view and great dock with a swim raft as well. Air conditioning in every room! Super sunny charming bedrooms! Never had a kitchen well stocked with spices and foil/saran wrap, etc. before, what a treat. We and our dogs absolutely loved it! Can't recommend it highly enough.
Weâve made several trips over the years to Scottâs properties on Long Pond and we are never disappointed! Scott knows exactly how to be the right kind of host and his homes are magic! Donât hesitate to book!
I canât say enough about this little gem!! It is located on a beautiful pristine lake that has to be one of the most peaceful locations weâve ever stayed. We brought our kayaks and weâre the only ones out on the water, other than the 2 loons that joined us!!! A very special place! Decorated beautifully and clean!!! Highly recommend to all and weâll certainly be back!!! Thank you Scott!!!
What a wonderful getaway! The house was absolutely lovely with so many little extra touches in the workmanship to admire and appreciate. The view was absolutely stunning by day as well as the starry skies by night. We were able to catch the Orionid Meteor shower during our stay. Captivating! Beautiful walks...So quiet...So peaceful...So enjoyable.
It was also a great location to go out and explore nearby sceneries, towns, and shops like The Maine Cabin Masters in Kennebec and Fielders Choice Ice Cream Shop. Maine coastal towns were not too far for us to visit as well. It was time well spent. Our only complaint was that the week went by so quickly. Thank you for having us and for making it a such a comfortable retreat!
The best thing about this cottage is that you are in 'real' cottage country when you are here. There are no long strips of overdevelopment on your drive to our place, and there no noisy highways, or large resort operations on this lake chain. We are at the end of a beautiful, quiet, country road, with great privacy. Best of all, the heavily forested shoreline of the lake means that when you are on the water, you see trees and loons, not cottages!
