Our home is exceptionally clean, we have added extra cleaning measures to ensure a safe, clean and sanitary space. Enjoy a cozy, romantic getaway or fun family time - we're just 30 minutes from Portland and Freeport too!

Relax and unwind in our lovely lakefront home on beautiful Panther Pond. Our cottage hosts expansive lake views, great sunsets, and is the perfect place for a get-away any time of year! Grab your fleece and strike up a fire in the fire pit at the water's edge or cozy up next to one in the warmth of our living room with large stone hearth.

The setting of our four-season lakefront home is peaceful and private, it is surrounded by trees but has a fantastic view of the lake. We are Western-facing, our home offers you long sunny days and views of the lake from many vantage points - large deck, screened-in porch, lawn area & private dock. In the summer, wake to the sound of the loons and retire after enjoying exquisite sunsets by the water… Spend your days swimming, fishing, kayaking, playing games and enjoying the very best of lake-living! You will enjoy all the comforts of home from this spacious and tastefully furnished cottage with 150 feet of water frontage and a private dock. In the winter enjoy the snow and ice-covered lake and the cozy feeling of a winter cabin in the woods – ice fish, snowshoe, or simply light a fire, read a book and enjoy the moonlit lake. A beautiful deck with comfortable seating overlooks the water and screened-in porch with Pottery Barn sofa and picnic table allows you to enjoy the views any time of day when you’re lounging or dining.

Hike nearby Rattlesnake Mountain (one of the best day hikes in and around the Portland area), swim, kayak, fish, visit Portland or Freeport for great shopping or simply relax and enjoy the peace and quiet (and wildlife) of this lakefront setting.

Panther Pond connects to Crescent Lake via the Tenny River - a wonderful paddle experience for those who like to kayak. We also have a fire pit at the water's edge which is the perfect location to sit and enjoy a sunset - even in the winter! And for fishermen and women, Panther Pond is home to a large variety of fish.

The cottage is equipped with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, updated kitchen, stone fireplace, 2 separate living/entertaining spaces, large deck, screened-in porch, A-Frame swing, fire pit, kayaks and a canoe. The home is well-appointed with quality furnishings and bedding.

    We absolutely loved our stay! The home and location were perfect. I wish we could have stayed longer! The home was very clean and had lots of thoughtful touches. I especially loved the bunk beds in 2 of the rooms because they are big enough to hold a family of 4 if the children are young like ours (4 & 5). The view of the lake was my favorite. Very beautiful and tranquil. We loved the deck and patio below the deck. So much space expertly created for pure enjoyment. We enjoyed the canoe and I was very impressed with all of the kayaks and other fun water adventure items that we didn’t get to use. And sitting next to the fire pit watching as the dusk turned darker was another highlight. Communication was quick and helpful. I am so glad we stayed here and hope to come back!

    Well-stocked cabin inside and out. Everything you need for a family vacation in Maine. Water temperature was great in late July. Secluded, but only minutes from town.

    This tranquil retreat was so enjoyable. The views are wonderful. We immediately felt comfortable, cozy & at home. We had Long walks in the morning Thru nature, hours on the lake kayaking, swimming in the clear cool water of the lake & lounging on the floating dock. Kristen was a wonderful host making sure all our needs were covered. We can’t wait to return. Thanks so much, Patricia & Anthony

    Our dream retirement would be a house on a lake. We are never going to have this, so we wanted to finally rent one to see what it is like. This checked off all the boxes! The layout, the cabin feeling, the beautiful sloping front yard leading to the water, the plants, everything! The house had everything you would need, move in ready. The quiet serene atmosphere was what it was all about. What a wonderful place to live in peace and serenity. I definitely want to be a returning renter every year! Oh, and Kristen is wonderful!

    My friend and I absolutely loved this property and definitely plan to return. It was cozy and at the same time very spacious. Everything we needed for the week was provided in the cottage and the location was absolutely perfect to unwind and relax. The view was gorgeous and provided beautiful sunsets while enjoying the fire pit right by the lake. We had a few rainy days so took advantage with a quick trip to Bridgeton and North Conway.
