Escape to Summer: Frye Island Vacation Rentals
Popular legend has it that Captain John Frye swam to the safety of the island now named after him while escaping from a tribe of Native Americans. The facts of the story may be a bit muddled by history, but the name has stuck and now, today, many people escape to Frye Island vacation rentals, leaving their daily lives behind in order to appreciate the beauty of nature and some rest and relaxation. Also, nowadays, people can take a ferry instead of swimming through Sebago Lake to get to Frye Island.
Recently, Sebago Lake lodging in general and Frye Island cottages in particular have become very popular among Maine vacationers. Despite the popularity, the island is only accessible from May to October. From November to April, ice can form on the lake, making it impassable by ferry. For this reason, Frye Island vacation rentals are only available in the late spring, summer, and early fall.
Bring the Whole Family, Even the Furry Ones
One of the best things about spending a vacation out in nature is being able to have your dog with you. Many families think of their dogs as actual members of the family, as much so as human members of the family. For this reason, taking man's best friend on vacation is a treat for both the dog and the whole family. Luckily, there are Sebago Lake lodging options that are pet-friendly. A number of Frye Island vacation rentals, including Frye Island cottages allow guests to bring their dogs.
Some Sebago Lake lodging options are even open to indoor pets such as cats, birds, and hamsters. This is great for families who will be spending many days or even weeks in Frye Island cottages or houses and don't want to have to pay for a pet sitter the whole time.
