Lakefront cottage, deep water, now booking Summer 2026

Beautiful location! The lake is magistic would happily return

This is a structure built in the late 1880’s so it’s good to recognize that it lacks sound privacy between rooms and will require some sure footedness to navigate the staircases and the walkway to the dock. Given that, it was a magical place for our family to spend intimate time, enjoying the spectacular lake and views and sharing visits from the loons and bald eagle. I used the kitchen for cooking and baking and found it well supplied for equipment. We loved eating our meals outside on the porch! The owners were wonderful about answering questions and otherwise assisting when asked. We would have used the boats but didn’t have pfd’s with us. It’s really great also to be minutes from all that Camden has to offer. We made some lovely memories at the Babb camp during our week.

Camp Babbs is always fun. The lake is exquisite and the camp porch gives spectacular views of the Camden Hills. Well appointed and James & Jennifer are great hosts.

This was our first time to Lake Megunticook and we loved it- there are endless ways to enjoy the lake, we paddled the canoe and kayak across to a picnic spot for lunch, we swam every day, and my young children waded in the sandy shallow portion to search for special pebbles and frogs. The house has a long porch with picnic table and chairs, perfect for enjoying the water views and spotting loons. The house is a rustic seasonal cottage, it has a generous living area inside, including a large kitchen and dining area, a single bathroom, and bedrooms that connect. Owners were very responsive. Thanks for a lovely visit.

Another magical stay at Babb Camp with family. Weather was not ideal but did not matter. We love the setting and the lake is so much fun. So much to do even in cloudy weather - hikes for all levels, trips to town, canoeing and kayaking. We will be back!!!

Rustic, charming and wonderful experience on the lake. Jim and Jennifer are great to deal with and the Babb Camp is everything you'd want in a back to basics lake front experience. We had a tremendous time and would definitely go back!

We really enjoyed this special spot and only regretted not staying longer. Owners are super nice and helpful.

We loved the stay!

We had a lovely time at this property, the late was stunning and the house was perfect.

A charming old camp on a wonderful lake. The porch is a slice of heaven. The main living space is spacious and cozy, with lots of areas to tuck in, read a book, do a puzzle, and comfortably gather. The kitchen was well stocked. Communication with the owners was easy and super friendly! The second floor had lots of sleeping options and great lake views, but not every room is totally private as you have to walk through at least one. And some of the walls don't go to the ceiling, so it's quite rustic. Just good to know. We had a wonderful stay!
