Great Pond Waterfront: Dog-friendly Home Near Colby College

Camp was amazing, hosts made it very easy to get checked in with awesome communication. When we arrived camp was clean and ready for us to enjoy. There was plenty of space and great lake front area with a small kayak to use to ferry boats to mooring. Hosts were super awesome and they even offer adventure excursions which I highly recommend--super fun! Hosts made us feel like we were at home! Can't wait to come back again next year!

It was so nice to be able to take our dogs on vacation. The location was ideal for taking hikes with our dog while our friends dog Sean in the lake all day. Sarah was great at responding to all of my questions.

Fantastic rental in all respects, highly recommended.

Fourth year here and it keeps being amazing!

Great cabin. A/C made it comfortable indoors during a hot week. Awesome location on the lake. Just wish we knew about the giant house right next door overlooking the whole property.

We had a great time! This home was perfect for us, the water so clean and the views beautiful. Owners were very responsive and helpful

This was our third year in a row spending most of August at the wonderful Loons nest! Brent and Sarah are great and responsive hosts. The views and water are incomparable and the cabin itself has all of the modern conveniences while maintaining a rustic charm. It is one of our favorite places in the world and hope to be back next year!

First let me say that this property is great for all the major items: Lake location with a dock to launch our kayak, comfortable beds, comfortable living room furniture, a well equiped kitchen, nice outdoor furniture and a good sized firepit. The hosts were easy to work with and responded quickly when we had an issue with the TV. I only have some minor criticisms on some of the details that were overlooked like a few light bulbs being burned out, the bugs in the light over the dining room table, the broken toilet seat cover in the upstairs bathroom, the charcoal grill filled with ashes and the broken down furniture sitting next to the nice Adirondacks at the fire pit. We really had a wonderful stay here and got some great relaxation in - so beautiful and peaceful.

We were in the area for a few days and this was the perfect retreat for us. Relaxing and seamless in every way. Thank you Sarah and Brent for your hospitality. We hope to be able to spend more time there next summer.

Fourth time we’ve rented Loons Nest and first time since the pandemic. The house is great and the waterfront is really good for swimming and kayaking ( we rented a kayak from Maine Paddling Connections). Sunsets aren’t too shabby either. The owners are very pleasant and helpful. Highly recommend.
