    What a wonderful space for sharing with 3 married couples who are longtime friends! The space was warm and generous for each couple and perfect for making our meals together! It is centrally located and perfect for relaxing and enjoying the surroundings. We would return in a heartbeat!

    Outstanding house and location. Loved every minute of our stay from the moment we drove in. The house was perfect, and the lake was crystal clear and perfect for swimming, kayaking and just watching the sunset from the dock. At the end of two weeks, we were sad to leave. Is there a way to rate this property at more than 5 stars?

    This is our second stay!! Prompt communication through VRBO messaging. The camp has many things you might need, a few movies and games, a kitchen full of ammenities, I was able to bake a cake for my brother in law! And it was really nice to have a washer and dryer too. The only item I might suggest, is a small cooler for beverages when you are outside at the lake. We made lots of fun memories, hope to make it back again!

    We love the quiet setting for true relaxation for body, soul, and spirit. The neighborhood is amazing. Very friendly people. The sound of the waves, birds, rain and just the wind in the trees is so refreshing. Can't wait to go again!

    The outdoor amenities (firepit, kayaks, docks) make for a great time on the lake.

    My teen had a break from school so we rented this lovely quiet home on the lake for five days. Another teen from the school joined us as well and we all enjoyed the peace and tranquillity the place provided. Even though it was a bit cold outside, the kayaks were used when the water was calm. The heating was easy to use as well as the various kitchen items, tv, etc. It’s a very user friendly common sense home. We would definitely stay here again.

    This quaint cottage, mere steps from a crystal clear lake, exceeded our expectations in every way! Homey and comfortable interior (well equipped kitchen, good beds with vast array of pillow options, fun game cupboard) combined with terrific amenities outside (patio furniture, expansive dock, hammock, beaches, Adirondack chairs and nice kayaks), made for a perfect stay. Rosa was lovely to communicate with, and flexible as Colby College switched the dates of parents wkend on families this year. Can’t wait for a repeat visit, what a truly special property.
