Our family of 5 had a wonderful week at Uptacamp— Norton Pond is beautiful for swimming and kayaking, the location is a great jumping off point for exploring the Midcoast area, and the cabin is comfy with plenty of space to hang out outside. Robert and his wife are terrific and responsive hosts. We hope to return!

Great Stay on Norton Pond!

We loved our quick trip to this property. The location was perfect, the boat house fully stocked with fun lake toys and despite our rainy forecast we had the best time! Check in and check out was smooth sailing and the house was prepped with everything we needed. Thanks so much!

Great Get Away!

Great spot for a get away with our family. Well equipped camp to live in for the week. We cooked all of our meals there inside or on the grill, except pizza from the general store one night. Beds and bedding were comfortable. Owners were quick to communicate about any questions we had. Will stay again!

Lakeside

This cottage brings you back in time to vintage Maine. Loved the sleeping porch and listening to the waves lapping the shore. Very well stocked kitchen and plenty of dry wood for the fire pit.

Authentic camp and beautiful location

We enjoyed the peaceful beauty of this stay. The camp itself is genuine vintage style but comfortable and being cared for. We appreciate the old places being rescued! We enjoyed eagles, loons, families of geese, local fare and visiting relatives. This is a lakeside gem hidden in Lincolnville Maine.

Peace and tranquillity!

The property is very rustic and peaceful. The cabin was very clean and comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet. We spent most of our time sitting on the dock watching the wildlife and sunsets.

Beautiful cabin with a great view!

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin on the lake! The cabin had lots of character, and was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed some of the amenities to include kayaks and the fire pit by the lake. The cabin was very close to Camden and Rockport which we explored during the day. Excellent communication with the host. Would definitely recommend!

Relaxing and peaceful place!

The owners were very accommodating. Every little detail from easy access to the cottage, to all the amenities (pillows, sheets, blankets, towels provided, all kitchen items, toiletries in case you forgot, bandaids and bug spray, board games and a small boombox radio). Cottage was very clean and the grounds were beautiful. Looking forward to staying here again in the future.

Perfect lakefront spot!

Loved this house, such a perfect spot. Great house layout, clean, well supplied. The dock is right on the lake with clear water, we rented kayaks and paddled over to the lovely Lincolnville store (where they have everything, even pizza kitchen for takeout). It was quiet with little boat noise, just loons and the sounds of people enjoying summer.
