Secluded lakefront home with patio & firepit, fast WiFi, wood stove & W/D

Ellsworth, Maine, United States

A secluded, waterfront getaway awaits in this all-season ranch home, tucked into the trees and surrounded by water. The wooded 3.4-acre property is set on Upper Patten Pond (a smaller, and quieter, private lake where you can catch perch or pickerel), and within 15 minutes of Ellsworth with shops, restaurants, supermarkets, and kayak rentals. There are also two kayaks included with your home. Enjoy easy access to state forests and parks, Bar Harbor (40 minutes), and the entrance to Acadia National Park is a 35-minute drive away.brbrCloser to home, the shady, private patio in the backyard is the perfect place to sip morning coffee, and the firepit awaits for an evening spent roasting marshmallows and trading stories about the day. There's a pair of loons that will serenade you in the evening, and you might also spot eagles and other wildlife during your stay.brbrTake in unobstructed water views from every window inside the homey living space, detailed with sweet country touches throughout. Hardwood floors, a wood stove, and comfortable furnishings help create a warm, cozy feeling no matter the time of year. The well-equipped kitchen features all the appliances, counter space, and gadgets you'll need to whip up a feast, and the group can dine together at the window-front table or pull up a barstool at the kitchen island to keep it casual. Spend the evenings gathered in front of the wood stove while you stream your favorite shows or use the in-home, high-speed WiFi to upload the day's pics to social media. Relax with some music courtesy of the sound system with speakers in every room or, if you've got any remote work to do, a sweet roll-top desk offers the perfect perch. Three comfortable bedrooms await at the end of your first – and every – perfect vacation day.brbrWHAT'S NEARBYbrThis home is centrally located between both Acadia National Park and the picturesque Blue Hill Peninsula and Deer Isle - home to artist colonies, the photogenic 18th-century town of Castine, the working fishing village of Stonington, and Brooksville, (the inspiration for the award-winning children's book by Robert McCloskey, One Morning in Maine). Visit the quaint village of Blue Hill with shops and galleries that showcase the best of the peninsula's artists and artisans, which pepper the Blue Hill Peninsula. You're also 2.5 miles from Toddy Pond, an eight-mile lake - perfect for exploring one of the region's most popular bodies of water for boating or fishing.brbrTHINGS TO KNOWbrStreaming services are available using your own account.

Waterfront, Family Retreat up to 12, Acadia National Park, Coastal Maine, Camp

Ellsworth, Maine, United States

Branch lake is known as one of the top rated lakes in Maine for its water purity and very unique sparse population as its the watershed for Ellsworth. Less than half the lakeshore is developed, especially the Southern end, making one feel wonderfully cutoff from civilization! Mainguy's is one of the nicest or best camps on Branch Lake for its location and amenities just off Route 1, center lake location, deep water frontage with a dive tower (23 feet deep), small beach, lakeside fireplace and exceptional knotty pine interior with top of the line appliances, new beds, bar, Starlink Wifi & 3 large LED TV's. The year round house/camp was totally gutted from top to bottom and remodelled in 2015/2025 and is just 40 feet from the waters edge. Ideally designed for families or 2 couples as there are 2 separate indoor entertainment areas. There is 1 ground floor bedroom with a king & full bathroom near it. Level 1 has 1 double bedroom & 1 queen bedroom plus a 2 twins (bunk bed) bedroom with a full bathroom in the corridor. Level 2 has the master king bedroom which has a 1/2 bathroom next to it along with a loft across the suspended walkway hosting a double bed. The kitchen is completely remodelled with state of the art appliances, dual oven, 36 inch fridge with ice maker , dual gas stove and dishwasher along with a convection microwave oven. Hardwood flooring is laid throughout the 1st floor including the kitchen along with new wrap around quartz countertops. The house has all new linen and towels you will need along with all kitchen utensils and dishes. The ground floor has luxury vinyl flooring which can handle the sandy traffic in and out the sliding glass door to the sand beach . The hammock right near the dock is often fought over during the day or evening as a perch to watch the fire in the lakeside fireplace. Sunsets from the deck are magic! A very scenic 30 minute drive takes you into the famed Acadia National Park or towards Bucksport to start a must do memorable drive along the coastline down to Camden with all the roadside charm and antique shopping. brIn case you are short of space and require additional space or just more privacy, there is an optional very luxurious contemporary 2 king bed bedrooms apartment with ensuite bathrooms, kitchenette with dishwasher/microwave oven, 4 seat island, living room with 65 smart TV, and 2 terraces with great views over the lake. This would grant an extra 4 people to the 12 of the main house. Please message me if you'd like to inquire, receive more information on this apartment.brbrLastly, I just started to rent my other key home on Branch Lake in case interested. Look up Waterfront, lake estate, reunions, 8 bedrooms, Acadia Nat'l Park, Bar Harbor. The 8 bedroom cottage plus main house sleeps up to 17 in existing bedding. We call it Serenity and its also managed by Jessica Dow, the property manager.
