Lovely well furnished cottage for a family of nine located in the woods w/short path to the waterfront equipped with dock, raft, water floatation devices, kayaks and canoe; within walking distant to the village. A few property concerns that didn't really affect the quality of our experience were well received by the owner who was outstanding to work with before, during and after our stay.
My family and I spent a very relaxing week in this beautiful home. The house was roomy and everyone had their own space. Christina was very helpful when I had questions, and was a phone call or text away. The lake is right there, with a dock, raft, and sandy walk in. There were kayaks and a canoe available as well. All of the kids enjoyed being there. We can’t wait to come back.
We had a wonderful week at the lake! The house was clean with plenty of linens and towels available throughout the house. There is laundry on site if needed, and a fully equipped kitchen with brand new grill for summer grilling. Our 12 year old children enjoyed paddle boarding around the cove and swimming and diving off the raft. It was a great week and Christina was an attentive and responsive home owner. Great spot for an extended family gathering! Thanks!
A beautiful property on a beautiful lake! Our family filled this house to the brim with 9 adults and 4 children (2 small toddlers). The open concept kitchen/dining/family room area is perfect for sharing meals and visiting. There is also ample seating just outside on the deck. Downstairs was perfect for video games, air hockey and other active games. 2 full sized refrigerator/freezers worked out great for our large group. Laundry machines were very clean and modern. We did have a couple of minor issues that were addressed promptly by the owners of the property. For people that are very sensitive to molds, the finished basement has a slight musty smell that my daughter-in-law was sensitive to. The rest of the family found the basement to be comfortable and fun! The owners have dehumidifiers running that help a great deal. Our family had a great time and will cherish the memories made here for years to come!
This property was perfect for our family of 11. We loved the canoe and kayaks, and rented a pontoon boat which we were able to keep moored right in front of the property. We enjoyed having s'mores at the firepit, and we were all truly comfortable for the week. Walkable distance to the adorable town of Bridgton.
We were a family of 9 from Philadelphia - 2 grandparents, 4 adult children and 3 grandchildren from 9-14. We wanted to recapture wonderful summer vacations in Maine from 25 years ago with swimming and fishing in the lake to fresh lobster dinners. The 2-level house, deck, dock and easy entry to walk into the lake gave us spacious indoor and outside room to play, read, sleep, cook and enjoy the beauty of the lake though the trees. We were delighted to find the house was air conditioned and the gas grill was ready when we arrived on a 95degree day. When the weather turned cooler we had a wonderful time roasting Marshmallows around the fire pit. The kitchen and bathrooms were so well-stocked there was nothing we have at home that wasn’t waiting for us there. The home even came with a canoe, kayaks and life jackets. Bridgeton and the surrounding area offered easy shopping for essentials, arts and crafts and lots of opportunities for additional fun. We even went blueberry picking at a local farm and made homemade blueberry pie, cobbler and even jam to give as gifts and take back as great souvenirs. BEST OF ALL WAS THE DETAILED COMMUNICATIONS AND INFORMATION FROM THE GRACIOUS OWNERS ONLINE AND IN THE HOME. M whole family would recommend this home and the area to anyone.
We stayed for a week and it was glorious. The lake was clean and the sandy walk in was ideal for our 1 year old to splash around in. The house was well appointed and very comfortable for our party of 10 (5 adults, 5 kids). Christina was super responsive when we had a small issue with the grill and a small plumbing leak. Would highly recommend!
We had an excellent stay here. Christina is amazing to work with, property is less than 10 minutes to the mountain and the house is very well appointed. There were 9 of us (two families with school age children). Lots of room to spread out and have fun!
First of all, Christina was awesome to deal with. We had schedule conflicts to deal with and Christina work it all out for us, she touched base with us on arrival to make sure we were all set. Christina also suggested fun places for the grandchildren, which we utilized. House was perfect for all of us. We had 3 grandchildren, 6 adults and there was plenty of room for everyone, inside and out. House has plenty of games, books, videos for late night fun after being on the lake all day. The deck is great for having your meals outside, good size fire pit for at night making s'mores and enjoying a a cold one. All kinds of toys to enjoy the lake with, kayaks, canoes, floats, noodles. Great time just sitting out on the dock enjoying the views or helping the grand kids fish. Great time had by all!!
Missing our vacation on Highland Lake already! Great house for our multi-generational stay. From the 7 month old to Gramma and Grampy it was a perfect house for our stay. Plenty of room to spread out inside and the lake front property gave us many options…… the fire pit, the dock, shady and sunny areas and plenty of trees for the hammocks. Lake toys were plentiful and Moose Landing Marina was a great place to rent our pontoon. Christina was very helpful before we arrived and once we were there. She is very Covid conscious, putting my concerns to rest. Bridgetown is a cute little town and Maine Lobster Express provided great sea food. Go if you can. Everybody needs a Maine vaca!
