Location was perfect for relaxing, enjoying the view of the sunset over the pond. My husband fished off dock. Very quiet and close to all the places we usually visit. Heated by fireplace was nice although we couldn’t lower the temp and ultimately turned it off once we were pleasantly warm. Weather was perfect.

We enjoyed a quiet and fun weekend at Kathy’s place right on the water of a tranquil pond. Plenty of space for hanging by the fire or enjoying activities. Kathy went above and beyond to return an item we mistakenly left in the house, great communication and checkin/out was a breeze! Recommend

Great, cozy place!

We spent a couple of nights at this lovely place on the lake - the beds were comfortable, it was quiet and private, and we *loved* the hot tub! Even in winter, there was so much to see and do nearby in York, Ogunquit, etc. Beautiful location!

Just what we needed!

My family, including my parents, stayed here for 6 days and loved every minute of it! My father has just completed a round of chemotherapy so we were looking for a place to rest, relax, and enjoy some family time and this was perfect. We were able to play bocce and cornhole, but also just sit in the sunroom to admire the beautiful pond views! The hot tub was a huge hit for my husband, who used it every night! So happy with our stay!!

Serene and scenic

We had a guys weekend here, and it was just perfect. The lake was serene and glasslike for good chunks of our stay. The house was just the right size for us not feel cramped, but also not feel like there was wasted space. Kathy was awesome and very responsive. I plan to return sometime with the family sometime, will definitely stay here again.

Mother Daughter Weekend

We loved our stay at Kathy’s and are looking at dates to return. It was the perfect spot for a casual fall getaway with our daughters. The view is gorgeous and the accommodations comfortable. Kathy was a very responsive host and communicated well and during the trip. Only thing I would suggest to future guests is to bring gallons of water as the kitchen tap came out brown occasionally.

Cottage on the pond

We had a wonderful two night stay in this cozy cottage on the pond. Great location with an amazing water view and a great fire pit and outdoor area you're super close to both York and ogunquit for fun! The cottage sleeps 5 comfortably and has all the basics you need. Be aware it IS a cottage and more rustic but the location and outdoor space makes it worth the stay, not too mention the hot tub!!! Take a soak and look up at the stars!

Picturesque view!!

Enjoyed a long fall weekend on the pond. The house was toasty warm with a nice gas fireplace in the living room and a amazing fire pit outside. The kitchen is well stocked to meet our cooking needs and steaming fresh lobsters. The hosts promptly answered our questions. The hot tub was crystal clean and a yummy 120 degrees. Overall a great stay.

best of both worlds

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights, ot was nice to be on the pond, yet only minutes from the ocean. Could use a little updating, however, it had everything we needed. Only other thing was the Hot Tub, nice and clean but, could have been a bit warmer. All in all we were satisfied with our stay. Matt and Kathy thank you for sharing your home.

Ants

The property was nice, but was filled with ants! The were all over the place including on beds etc. Also, the hot tub was filthy and needed cleaning. The dock and furniture around the fire was rickety. I would not stay in this cabin again. However, the location was lovely!

The view of the pond is the nicest part. The screen porch was also very nice. The water in the camp is disgusting. It smells like raw sewage. There was only one smoke detector that I could see. The bunk bed room where my 3 year old son would have stayed was unsafe. When you shut the door the bunk bed would just about block you from opening the door. When you drive in it looks like a junk yard. There is a van that has a sign in it stating “owners camping van”. The tires are sunk in the ground. There is also a jeep. I’m guessing it’s a “camping jeep” as well. I see a lot of good reviews for this property which I just can’t understand. Some of the reviews say if you don’t like rustic go to a 5 star hotel. Well I can say this is NOT rustic. The dock is wobbly and seemingly unsafe. There were plastic toys everywhere which seemed great at first. Until we notice many were broken and had sharp plastic edges. Overall this is not a place to have young children. If there was any maintenance done to this property we could not tell. We stayed here for one night out of four nights we were supposed to. My main concerns were the wiring of the “camp” mixed with the lack of fire detectors. Also there is a faint smell of mold. They do not want you taking a bath, which I wouldn’t want to anyway. This property needs a lot of TLC. Beds were terribly uncomfortable. This property IS NOT REFUNDABLE for a REASON!
This is what you see when you drive in!
And this is the other side when you drive in. The shrubs cover up a lot of garbage
It might not drain if you took a bath. But the water smells so bad you wouldn’t want to.
To the right of the skylight window here is the only smoke detector I saw.

Why they chose this property

This cottage has the best of both worlds. Lake swimming and many activities for the kids. Like boating campfire ,bocce,, basket ball. Volley ball, Jacuzzi, And the other world is 5 min to the Ocean. Children have some much to do they don't want to leave.

What makes this property unique

My favorite thing is the Sunset over the lake. And watching the hummingbirds.
