Camden, Maine
Welcome to your Maine vacation on Megunticook Lake, Camden, Maine. Located on Codman Island, three miles from Camden Harbor. The ocean and town with this camp are an idyllic setting for a peaceful summer vacation.
THE "CAMP"
The Main Cabin is a charming century-old camp. It has a small kitchen and cozy dining room overlooking a wrap-around porch with a secluded view of Megunticook Lake through the pines. The main room is the heart of the house and centered around a wood-burning fireplace. A guest bath is located off the main room. The master bedroom has two twin beds, windows overlooking the lake, and a separate bathroom. The porch provides the perfect place to enjoy your afternoon cocktail, dinner, and a secluded perch to hear loons on summer nights. A path and stairs lead to the dock, perfect for swimming, boating, kayaking, fishing, or other adventures. The full sun makes it especially nice for sunbathing and picnics.
Adjacent to the Main Cabin is the Guest Cabin with two bedrooms and one adjoining bathroom. Each bedroom has two twin beds, a closet, a dresser, and lovely views of the lake on one side and trees up to 90-feet tall and 3 feet in diameter on the other side.
The entire property is a nearly 4-acre retreat in a 120-year-old forest with 659-feet of waterfront.
ADVENTURES
The dock is a perfect place to launch your daily lake adventures. Fishing in early June when the lake is quiet, to paddleboarding and swimming in the summer, or taking the canoe to peep the fall leaves; our family has loved spring, summer and fall.. On clear nights, star gazing is spectacular from the dock.
BOATS
The property includes a fishing boat, canoe, and two kayaks. Need something else Maine Sport provides kayak rentals; Maine Boat Company provides speed boats if you want a bit more speed.
WATER
We drilled a well last year and are installing filters to make the water potable. If this is unsuccessful for some reason, we will provide 5 gallons of bottled water to get you going .
We had a great time on Codman Island - the place is lovely. A true Maine experience.
We loved our stay on this most beautiful lake-so peaceful and relaxing! Our host promptly responded to our inquiries and his property manager is wonderful, as well! Nancy Scofield
We were looking forward to a week to get away and unplug with the family. While there was Wi-Fi access, we had no trouble keeping our boys engaged after hiding their devices. They kayaked, fished, canoed and leisurely read all week. Board games and cards and laughter filled the evenings. Easy drive to downtown Camden, Rockport and Rockland for dinners or shopping. Thanks for a great week!
Lovely cabin and the perfect location on Megunticook Lake. Ample space for a family with the guest cabin. Fred and Libby were very responsive if we had any questions! Use of the motorboat and kayaks was a definite plus so we didn't have to rent them or bring our own!
We rented the camp for the first two weeks in September. It was a glorious time of year to enjoy the lake and the Camden sea coast. The camp is spacious with a large porch overlooking the lake and a lovely dock with kayaks, a canoe and a motor boat available. While quiet and serene, it is only 3 miles from downtown Camden, so restaurants and shopping are close by. Fred was a wonderful host and accessible when we needed help working the TV. Libby, an local artist, oversees the property and was a great resource. She introduced us to the Camden dog park and offered to take us on a tour of the lake, but the weather didn’t cooperate. My husband, the dog and I agree that it was one of the most relaxing vacations ever!
The two cabins are so perfectly situated on Beautiful Lake Megunticook that we felt as though we were the only ones there! We are a family of 7 and the property suited us just right. Mornings afternoon & evenings could find any or all of us on the expansive porch or down on the dock. We rented 2 paddle boards to have in additional the kayaks, canoe and boat. Swims & picnic lunches were within an easy boat ride on the lake and hiking was a short drive to a trail head. We enjoyed all of it as well as the proximity to Camden for a couple of dinners out but we mostly ate in as the kitchen was well stocked and we preferred dinners outside on the porch listening for the loons! We'd love to go back there!
Back to heaven! This is our second trip here we love it with the loons singing and the lake the peace and quiet. Access to town access to hiking fabulous restaurants convenient shopping for food all around spectacular. Nature here is right in front of you with a kayak and a canoe we got up and close to the loons and the ducks and geese and even a blue heron. Would love it here and definitely will return. The owner is great as is the caretaker. No complaints.
Cozy cabin on lake. Secluded and quiet. Beautiful view from dock. Boat use a bonus. Would come back again.
This is a beautiful spot! - the house is on a quiet, peaceful lake but yet you're only a five minute drive to downtown Camden and are close to the ocean, too. The spot is very peaceful because the house is on a quiet part of the lake and it was very nice that there were kayaks, a canoe, and a small boat for our use - the kids loved it. The large porch is full of comfy furniture where you can spend the day enjoying the sounds of nature and see glimpses of the lake. The home has rustic Maine cottage elements - the kitchen is small and older but was perfectly functional with everything you could need and we really appreciated that there was a washer and dryer there. The host was so easy to contact and was very accommodating. This is a well-loved family home that exudes a history of many years of memory making at a beautiful spot in Maine.
Quiet serene waterfront relaxing property. We all had a great time swimming kayaking canoeing and hiking highly recommend it.
