August 2025

We really enjoyed our trip. There is plenty of sleeping area and the finished basement is a relatively separate area. We had 4 but more would have fit comfortably if you are ok with 1 bathroom. (We left one bedroom with 2 full beds untouched) For me the best part was the stand up paddle boards /kayaks so we could get on the water and explore. We had one hot day and one sunny cool day, and didn’t find the house too hot. Other highlights were using the fire pit by the lake, playing a silly game of croquet over the tree roots making it more like mini golf. There is propane for the grill and chopped wood supplied for fires. We found a place for a short hike 11 minutes away.

All in all it was a very nice relaxing place on the lake. It was very clean The water was nice and clear. It definitely does get hot in the house without air conditioning but the basement stayed nice and cool. The contact person for any questions was very fast responding. I would definitely recommend it to anyone and would definitely go back there again. Was decent fishing from the dock or out in kayak

Took a quick family trip to Maine. First time in the state. This property and house is beautiful. We had great weather. Warm and sunny. Which was perfect. The downfalls that make this place 3/5 are: the windows in the kitchen/dining and main living area do not have screens. No air movement! And it was WARM in there. Cannot imagine what it is like in July. And while I know it is states in the description of the place, I didn’t realize there would be so many cameras outside. It’s more than a little unnerving to think that there are people watching us. While the owners may not be..all I could think is that they were. It was just a little creepy. And..I know the owners have no control over this, but, the house on the corner across the street has multiple large barking dogs. Every time someone came or went from the street they would bark loudly for an extended period. Tried to go for a walk but they have “invisible fence” and the dogs, German shepherd and huskies, would come running to the edge of the property and barked incessantly. The owners indicated they don’t want loud music played or loud talking around a fire because they don’t want anyone disturbed, but I find a pack of hell hounds barking constantly much more disturbing. Otherwise had a great family time. Thanks for letting us use your home to make a memory.
