Stayed May 13, 2026A Wonderful Family Getaway on the Lake!We stayed at this lovely house in May 2026 and had an absolutely wonderful time. The layout of the home is perfect for quality family time. We spent many nights just hanging out, catching up on life events, and reminiscing while relaxing, sharing stories, and enjoying the beautiful lake views.This house has so many comfortable spots for a group to gather. We spent hours sitting in the cozy living room—where the mounted moose was a great topic of conversation!—as well as gathering around the dining table and hanging out around the kitchen island.The house is immaculately clean, incredibly well-stocked, and perfectly located - located just 10 minutes from local stores in Auburn. We would absolutely stay here again!

Stayed Jul 26, 2025This is our fifth year coming to Maine and this house was by far the best. It was a great location, close to a lot of towns. It had the best stocked kitchen, we did not need to buy anything. It was nice to enjoy the pond and go kayaking. Great place to rest and relax with amazing views.

Stayed May 23, 2025A property perfect for large groups and family gatherings. The spaces are generous and well appointed, with wonderful settings for recreation and contemplation. The kitchen is the best stocked we’ve ever experienced at a vacation rental. And the lake is a dream. The property exceeded all our expectations!

Stayed Aug 3, 2024The property is lovely-- just like the pictures. Great morning sun and afternoon shade, nice swimming, comfortable beds, great kitchen and really nice places to sit in groups outside. We also really enjoyed the lounge floats. I wish other reviews had noted that linens are not provided in the summer months-- bringing all of our own towels, sheets, bathmats, dishtowels etc was a bit of an unpleasant surprise. It is written in the description but easy to miss.

Stayed Jul 27, 2024Three generations of our family came together from several compass points. This large property had plenty of room inside and out for active kids, their parents and aunt, and grandparents too. We made many memories and meals together in the well-appointed gourmet kitchen. The older generation appreciated being able to retreat to the separate guest apartment for quit time. The outdoor toys and waterfront were well used during our stay.
