Your family and friends will love this lakefront retreat on the shores of Watchic Lake! Enjoy lazy afternoons on the water with the help of a private dock, shaded decks.

This 4 bedroom home is located directly on the lake. It is great for swimming, fishing, floating, or just sitting by the fire pit and relaxing. In the winter you can enjoy ice skating, snow shoeing, snowmobiling, and ice fishing.

The main level is an open concept living area combining the dining, kitchen, andliving room. There are two large bedrooms on the second floor. The master bedroom has a private balcony. The other room contains a full and twin size bed. There are two small bedrooms in the basement (one does not have a window) and another cozy family room.

We have a selection of games and DVDs for rainy days or nights at home. Light a fire in the fire pit near the water and enjoy views of the lake

Just twenty miles from Portland International Jetport. 35 minutes to Funtown/Splashtown and 40 minutes to Old Orchard Beach. North Conway NH and outlet shopping make for a nice midweek day trip.

Fall leaf peeping, the Fryeburg Fair, hiking and biking are all within a close proximity. Winter rentals provide access to ITS trails and bountiful ice fishing.

***Please note this home is in close proximity to adjacent neighbors. Some neighbors have been known to throw parties and play loud music on the weekend.***

    Wonderful comfortable home that had everything we needed for our stay. Loved that each upstairs bedroom had their own half bath. So often there are not enough bathrooms to get the whole family ready. We also appreciated all the usb charging ports, very convenient to have next to the beds and the couch in the living room.

    The house was great, and the lake was crystal clear and beautiful! The water in mid-October was cold, but that didn't stop us from going in for a dip!

    We had a wonderful time staying here and wish we had the opportunity to stay longer. Communication was outstanding, the house was beautiful and the views of the lake were gorgeous! Would definitely recommend to anyone.

    Great place. Lots of extras in case you forget small kitchen items. Very clean. Would have been good to have string likes working because of how dark back yard was. Also canoes that leak should be removed.

    We ended up having wonderful weather and took full advantage of the lake, kayaks, bbq grills, and fire pit. All the things were there for us to reconnect and make memories with family! The blow up cobra floatie created a lot of laughs!!

    We used this house as our base for a weekend wedding nearby. Our needs were simple and this house was a comfortable place to sleep and eat our breakfast. If we wanted more ambitious meals, the kitchen would have served us well.

    The Loon’s Nest worked out very well for our family of eight. The kitchen is up-to-date and well stocked with dishes, utensils, and pots and pans. The refrigerator is huge. The deck off the main level was great for reading, grilling, and outdoor meals. The upstairs bedrooms were very comfortable and each has a private bath which was really nice. The bedrooms on the lower level are quite small but workable. The bathroom on the main level has the only indoor shower, but the outdoor shower is wonderful. The waterfront area was great. We enjoyed the dock which is roomy enough for chairs and has stairs to access the lake. The raft was nice for swimming and fishing. The huge deck near the water has plenty of tables and chairs and a beach umbrella. There is also a small screened sunroom with couches and a small refrigerator. The sunroom was a perfect place to go for peace and quiet. Other reviews mentioned how close the neighbors are and how noisy they can be. Our experience was that it was noisy and crowded on the weekend but after that it was super quiet. The lake was nice for kayaking and we enjoyed watching and listening to the loons.
