Norway, Maine
Beautifully remodeled 3-bedroom home on beautiful Norway Lake (aka Lake Pennesseewassee.) The house sits on rocks in the lake - you can't get closer to the lake than this! Two decks with seating and a large dock with lounge chairs, great swimming and gorgeous views. Beautifully landscaped stone patio with fire pit and hammock, screened porch and outdoor shower. The house includes 2 kayaks and a canoe for guests' use. The house is located in Norway, Maine, a quaint town in the Western Maine Mountains/Lakes Region. The small downtown about 2 miles away has shops and restaurants. The large supermarket is just a 10 minute drive. Everything you need is close by and it's only a 45 minute drive from the culture, shopping and activity of Portland and about the same distance from the coast and beaches. In addition the house is 30 minutes from great ski areas and world-class golf at Sunday River. A scenic golf course is located less than 5 minutes away. The 3 bedrooms include a master with a queen bed, guest bedroom with a queen bed and a guest bedroom with 2 twin beds. It has a full kitchen, including a dishwasher and full bath with shower and tub. The house also has a washer and dryer. This house has everything you need for a relaxing vacation, but also plenty of activities a short drive away!
We rented this cabin the first week of October to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. The cabin was decorated adorably with all rustic decor. Everything you would envision in a Maine cabin on a beautiful lake. The cabin actually sits on a huge boulder jutting out of the lake. We had our morning coffee sitting on the back deck over looking the peaceful lake. We bbqed and ate dinner out there almost every night as well. The cabin gave you a sense of remoteness yet close to a cute town. The town had small shops and restaurants with plenty to do. The owner Monica was lovely and made the check-in and check-out process very pleasant and easy. Our only complaint which was an issue for us specifically due to my husband’s height, 6’3 was the size of the bed in the master bedroom seemed to be much smaller than a queen. But the other bedroom seemed to be closer to a queen size. Thank you again Monica for sharing your beautiful cabin with us! It was a wonderful stay!
The cabin was right on the lake; a beautiful, quiet location in a comfortable, warm, attractive cottage to enjoy north-west Maine in the early fall. We look forward to returning next year!
A beautiful vacation on the lake. Great swimming, incredible deck for eating and loon watching, and nice fire pit area. Spent all our time outside. Very comfortable and clean house but we were there for Lake Pennesseewassee. Surrounding area has supermarkets, restaurants, and every time of shop. Good area for jewelry shopping and mineral collecting due to all the local mines. Looking forward to booking again next summer.
Oh my goodness, this was such an incredible home! My husband and I stayed for a week and didn't want to leave. The home was cozy, clean and absolutely lovely. We loved the view and spent our days on the dock. The bed was very comfortable. We will be back! Thank you!
This is our second time back at Monica's lakehouse and we hope to come back again next summer. The location is amazing, the views are beautiful and the lake is great for swimming and fishing. Our family of four had a wonderful and relaxing getaway week. Thanks Monica!!
We enjoyed our stay so much. It was the perfect place right on the lake. We ate all our meals out on the deck. It was truly an amazing trip and we will be back!
Great lakeside location and experience, planning/hoping to return next year!
We stayed here for a week and have NO complaints about this rental. House was beautiful as was the property. The scenery could not have been more inviting. The lake was pristine for fishing and the wildlife abundant. Gorgeous escape into the woods at the woods’ place. Thank you so much for allowing us to celebrate our 40th birthdays here. We will absolutely be back!
This beautifully remodeled home on Lake Penneseewassee (Norway Lake) was the perfect getaway for myself and a longtime friend, as we sought a peaceful, unplugged week of rest and relaxation. The home itself was comfortable and well appointed with a full kitchen and pantry, a beautiful fieldstone fireplace, and a wonderful deck that hung right over the water. The setting was superb, nestled in the woods yet as close as you can get to the crystal clear water. A magnificent loon family were our constant companions throughout the week, gifting us with their various calls and fishing antics. We also enjoyed visits from bald eagles and other birds and wildlife (including a river otter that we believe had made her den under one of the docks). The sweet town of Norway was only minutes away, where we found some fun shopping and a great pub or two. Our visit was in late autumn, just as the gorgeous foliage was waning, yet still breathtaking. We will definitely want to return to this peaceful lakeside getaway, perhaps earlier in the season when we can kayak and hike in more suitable weather. Five stars for this beautiful property! You won't regret choosing a stay here. ~ Sally M & Janice J
We had an amazing time staying three weeks at this wonderful camp on the lake and watching the fall colors change before our eyes! Having stayed in several different camps in Maine this is luxurious living! Monica was great to work with and check in was a breeze. We loved the town of Norway with all the cool eating & shopping. The hiking available in such close proximity to the cabin was A+, 4 Star. The kitchen has all the amenities you need to cook meals at home. The master bedroom bed is soft but if you prefer something firmer another peaceful bedroom offers you that. The best part was waking up each morning and seeing what beautiful lake vista was awaiting us. Thanks Monica for sharing your piece of Maine heaven with us!
We had a wonderful week at this beautiful lakeside retreat, peaceful and comfortable.
We left a day early - the mattresses were worn and soft ; the sheets and linens were old and stained ; we had to clean the coffee pot and dust ; the fridge & freezer had food / old spoon ; someone’s clothes left in closets ; stuff stored under beds ; dirty worn braided rug at bedside ; etc. Quite disappointing because rustic homes construction was nice but….
We stayed here last winter and loved it. The cabin in summer doesn’t disappoint in any way. The screen porch was a perfect place to read. The lake access is perfect, town is adorable and full of good food and shops. We ate on the deck, watched movies, cooked a lot in the well stocked and appointed small kitchen and paddled every day on the lake we cannot pronounce. Thank you!
Lovely property!
Very nice, All ammenities good. Maybe include firewood for fire pit.
The property is on a beautiful lake. The surroundings are serene and peaceful; perfect for really getting away. If you like to kayak or go canoeing, do it. They are included for your use. Everything was in working order and the cabin was immaculate. It was exactly what we were looking forward to and what we would definitely like to return to. Close by is a Hannafords Super Market as well as a Super Walmart. Norway has some nice little restaurants at which to get a bite to eat or a beer. We especially liked 290 Main St. Not far away is Naples and Sebago Lake with many good options there, also. Then, of course, you can go to the White Mountains of New Hampshire or Portand and the Coast. BUT, if you just want to hide and relax, the Woods' Cabin is the place to go. Really!
Wow! Just wow! From the location, to the layout of the cottage and property to the cleanliness. If I was to have my own place, this would be it, exactly! You guys built this right! Coffee on the deck in the morning, drinks and fishing on the dock in the afternoon, bbqing and relaxing next to the campfire in the evening. Also sleeping in the master bedroom with the windows open at night listening to the water and loons. Oh and kayaking the lake was so fun and peaceful. This is our new favorite place, thanks to Monica and family for giving us the opportunity to rent this!!! We will be back for sure! Any cancellations please let me know ASAP!
