We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this relaxing, quiet, and incredibly clean lakeside cabin! We brought our two dogs and our three teenage kids, and there was plenty of space for everyone to spread out and enjoy themselves. The cabin was comfortable, peaceful, pet-friendly, and the lakeside setting made it the perfect place to unwind and escape the hustle and bustle. Having a place that was so welcoming to both our kids and our dogs made the stay even better.We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would happily stay again. We’ll definitely try to book this cabin the next time we’re in the area! Highly recommended!

Host was very responsive. And when it snowed, they coordinated somebody to come and snowblow the driveway (twice!). Place is very quiet, spacious. Directions for how to use the home was very straightforward! (thermostats, jacuzzi)Great experience!

Quiet lakeside retreat

We love this comfortable cottage and quiet location, perfect for a relaxing vacation spent bird watching, biking the nearby rail trail, and hiking with our dog. This was our fourth time staying here-- impressed with the beautiful updates to the master bedroom, now a suite with its own bathroom! We'll be coming back again!

This house is immaculate. Loved the fire pit and the jacuzzi. Very comfortable house. We spent quite a bit of time relaxing on the deck of the living room. We did get a bit lost getting there, but the caretaker, Jill, was readily available and not only helped us with directions, but gave us suggestions on where to go for groceries, etc. Very friendly and helpful woman.

Love the seclusion

We enjoyed relaxing, an easy walk to a great rail trail, visiting Balance Rock and great takeout food. Love that our pup is able to join us.

Relaxing lakeside getaway

We loved our stay at this cute, comfortable house -- drinking coffee on the deck and watching the birds, biking and dog walking on the nearby Ashuwillticook trail, relaxing on the screened porch in the afternoon. Very nice kitchen and bath, with everything you could need for a relaxing getaway!

Perfect Trip!

This lake house was exactly what we hoped for in an anniversary weekend trip. The wildlife, peacefulness, hot tub, and bonfire were all perfect. Jill was so quick to respond and seemed to really care about the quality of our time at her home. We’d love to come again!

Lovely home next to lake. Many hiking/lake spots within a reasonable drive. Lovely small waterfall along the driveway. Very close to rail trail. Walk to fishing spot as well as good fishing in nearby lakes. As noted in the property description,on/in the lake activities during the summer months are limited by plant growth in the lake. Spent sometime watching the birds on the lake. Dog friendly. Would stay here again.

Private lakeside cottage

This was our favorite rental so far. We loved to privacy, the location on the water, and the closeness to the walking trail. The cottage was very comfortable and there was plenty of space for all 6 of us. We had an enjoyable trip and the kids absolutely loved playing there. It was great to have direct contact with the homeowners throughout the visit.

Great spot for a few day stay!

We enjoyed our stay at the lake house. House was cute and location was great for what we were there for , less then 15 minutes from skiing. There’s a target less then two miles away and a good bar/ restaurant also two miles away. Good for a burger or a sandwich. Communication with the property owner was outstanding, she was quick to answer any questions we had and to let us know she was there if we needed anything ! We look forward to coming back again.

Great time

Very clean, comfortable and secluded without being isolated. A big portion of the backyard was literally underwater due to the unusual amount of rain. But the water was clean and the kids and the dog had a blast playing in it!

Great Spot

This was a great spot, it felt like we were on our own private island! Cabin is on the small side, but has everything you need with spectacular lake views. My kids are in college in Mass and NY, so it was better to rent the house and meet there for Thanksgiving, we had a wonderful time. Antiquing and other activities in the area. Also great hiking, but a little too cold on our trip. We did miss having a dishwasher

The house was very comfortable for our family of four. Very peaceful location perfect for relaxing out on the deck. The kitchen could use additional glassware and a new coffee maker. Otherwise the house is well equipped.

Amazing!

This cottage is very clean, incredibly cozy and has plenty of space to enjoy a weekend without ever leaving. The rail trail is in walking distance and a quick walk results in phenomenal views. The kitchen is full of maps of other area hikes, as well. The owners were quick to respond when we noted we'd arrived and seemed genuinely interested in our happiness. We hope to come back in the summer and head out on the lake! The only negative thing about this place is that we had to leave!
