Mountain-View Waterfront Escape – Enjoy all that is Great about Summer in Maine!

If I could give this place 10 stars for peace and tranquility I certainly would. We appreciated that we could have our senior dog there who enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the local wildlife. We loved the coziness of the cabin and the nostalgia about the place such as the screened in porch with the wooden slamming screen door. We explored the local towns of Fryeburg and Bridgton nearby that offered some great food and shopping. The food was awesome at 302 West and the lobster roll was excellent at Fryes Pizza in Fryeburg. The Corn Shop Trading Company in Bridgton had everything you could want for a souvenir and Reny’s was a great shopping experience as well. The weather conditions couldn’t have been better until mid week when a cold front moved in and the temperature dropped by almost 20 degrees overnight. Here’s where things got a little concerning. We had to use the cabin electric baseboard heat to stay warm. Our concern was the extension cords over those baseboards. We did our best to prop them up out of the way but the thought of a potential fire just didn’t make for a good night’s sleep.This cabin appeared to be in the process of renovation and upgrading. The description on vrbo stated the bathroom was newly renovated in 2024 and while everything seemed clean, there was absolutely no electrical outlet or exhaust vent in there. This was a minor inconvenience for my husband and I but I couldn’t fathom this working for my kids and grandchildren. Needs more renovations

Kitchen has all you need. The host was responsive when we couldn't get in. Had no service until we got inside and registered with their wife. The code was on my phone in an email so we had to get in touch with the Owner.

My wife and I stayed here this past weekend for some quiet time and to visit the fryeburg fair. The pictures do not do this place justice! The views are breathtaking. The cabin is adorable with plenty of room.A gorgeous, quiet pond just steps from the door with kayaking and swimming. Amazing. Bugs were not a problem at all this time of year. House had everything we needed, cooked some great meals in the well stocked kitchen.Host was super nice and responsive, offered great suggestions for local attractions/restaurants, etc. 10/10, a perfect weekend - my wife and i immediately started talking about a return trip with the kids!

Well kept cabin, clean & sandy beach, and a quiet, peaceful pond. Was perfect for us, our kids and grandkids.

We were looking for one last hooray of summer and we got it! The weather was mostly wonderful - 1.5 days of rain, but good for games and reading. We don't typically stay at places where we have to bring our linens, and though I thought we had everything, we forgot pillowcases. A trip to a nearby Dollar General solved that problem. Be careful in the bedrooms upstairs, those ceilings are low! But all of the beds were comfortable and everyone slept well. We spent the mornings reading on the porch with the hummingbirds, mid-day kayaking or swimming, and evening setting up camp fires. It was very Maine up to camp and we enjoyed our stay.

An abslutley wonderful cabin & lake front property. Deep in the woods, yet close to the amenities of civilization. A very peaceful & relaxing place to unwind & enjoy being surrounded by nature. One morning we watched a herd of deer make their way thru the property. Neighbors left & right, but you'd never know. Far enough away, you feel like you're here all alone. A good sized lake to kayak/canoe & fish on. Nice sandy beach & sandy lake bottom for swimming. The floating dock is a plus. Like us, it's a great place to bring your dog. Especially if your dog likes to swim. Good size fire pit with plenty of seating. We spent our mornings drinking coffee on the deck, watching the humming birds at the feeder, and soaking up the beautiful scenery. Jimbobs in Denmark is a neat little provisions store. Make sure you buy your coffee mug, or beer glass souvenir. Bridgton & Fryeburg are close by. Charming little towns with restaraunts, antique stores, and much more. A grill outdoors & fully stocked kitchen. All you need to bring is your own food. New Hampshire & the White Mountains are only an 1-1 1/2 hours away. You can make a day trip to Mt. Washington & the Kanc highway. Plenty of hiking trails nearby & in NH. Conway NH is another nice little town just across the border. It was everything we expected & then some. We couldn't be happier with our stay. Sherry, the host is very attentive to any questions & correspondence with her. If you enjoy relaxing in nature, this is a great place.

Peaceful location! Perfect beach for young kids. Close to Fryburg and Bridgton for groceries and restaurants.

Great private space! Private beach with kayaks, canoes, floats, paddle board and a raft. The black flies were brutal! Of course that can’t be helped lol. Fire pit was enjoyable. We really loved the screened in porch for games, coffee and rocking. The beds were comfortable. The hosts were very attentive when we had an internet issue while working from there. It was rectified quickly and we didn’t miss any work. The only criticism I have is there is no air conditioning. Plenty of fans but there were a few uncomfortable nights. The host did say they are working on getting this for next season. It is a great find to just kick back and relax.

Road’s aren’t maintained. We needed to vacuum downstairs and upstairs at least 9 times Bathroom was clean. Mosquitoes ate as and swarmed us ever time you walked outside. Couldn’t enjoy outdoor activities. The view of lake was amazing. We made the best out of our vacation. And it was the hottest week weather ever since I think news said Covid.

We really enjoyed the lake, swimming and use of the kayaks. We love the peaceful lake.

Perfect Stay! We loved the view and the property was as advertised. Very clean and Rustic. Easy check in and out. Had friends visit while we stayed and they said that they would love to come back and stay there! We enjoyed ourselves and would gladly come back and stay again!
