We had a lovely week visiting family in Blue Hill and being with one another in a very comfortable house. We enjoyed the pond and the beautiful surroundings - walking, running, kayaking, floating, swimming. Listening to the loons and star gazing on quiet nights. The kitchen was well appointed so cooking meals was a joy. Everyone thought the beds were very comfortable. All in all a wonderful stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at Toddy Pond. The house had everything we needed and plenty of space to spread out with our extended family. We loved sitting out on the back deck in the morning and kayaking on the water.We had a couple minor maintenance issues that were resolved quickly with good communication from the handy man.If your goal is to get away from the hustle and bustle and relax, we would definitely recommend.

This lovely home on Toddy Pond was the perfect place to rest, recharge, and reconnect with family. We enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen and taking advantage of the beautiful lake on the water floats provided. The property is beautiful, private and peaceful. We were sorry to see our week come to an end!

Wonderful Retreat
We were looking for a lakeside house with enough activities to keep our young adults/teens busy all week and this was it! (Kids ages 21,18, and two 14 year old boys). We all had bedrooms. There was comfortable day bed in the game room and another private room, comfortable looking room in the basement, if you have a larger party with younger kids. Missed in the description that there are 3 full baths with showers -- which was great for our group. We loved that it had ping pong and foosball. We also put up badminton and rented kayaks (Activity Shop). We were able to fish and float on the very calm, surprisingly not cold lake. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked in every way -- which is important because we cooked almost every meal -- the house is 20 minutes away from any commercial areas. Very nice touches such as a panini maker, a kitchen aid blender and a fully functional gas grill. Wine is even stocked on your arrival, on the condition that you replace what you use when you leave! We spent two days visiting Acadia (1 hour drive) and also visited Fort Knox (prior to check-in). We did a night kayaking tour in Castine to see the bioluminescence. There is a little wear and tear on the rental property, but it doesn't impact the facilities at all. Host was very responsive to my questions before and during our stay. We would definitely recommend this property.

Family vacation!
8 of us stayed here and it was a great house! Cooked 2 big dinners and we had everything that we needed for both! It's a little off the beaten path, but we did love it! Even saw a few baby deer!

Beautiful Lake house
We stayed this May and had a lovely time at this beautiful property. The host was responsive and accommodating, and took care to ensure that the amenities were satisfactory to our party before we confirmed the booking. The lake was peaceful and beautiful and the property fit our needs exactly. This property is far enough away from Acadia that you'll need to wake up extraordinarily early if you want to view the Cadillac summit sunrise, but close enough that we were not bothered making the trip to Acadia several times during our stay. We had an excellent time and would recommend this place to anybody looking for a quiet getaway in Maine.

Fantastic weekend at this beautiful house
Our family had a fantastic weekend at this beautiful house on Toddy Pond. The house was roomy, clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed, and we enjoyed many meals in the dining room. We used the grill, and enjoyed a lazy rainy Saturday by the fireplace, which was amply supplied with wood. My husband and son took a dip in the lake - braves souls, in the cold temperatures of late May - and had a lot of fun! This Maine house, woods and lake is a peaceful spot. There were only 5 of us, but plenty of room for a bigger family! A "must see" is the Penobscot Narrows Bridge Observatory - it's amazing, and we had a delicious dinner at Marlintini's in Blue Hill. Big thank you to Dan and his family for sharing his house with our family; it's a gem.

Perfect house for the family
We enjoyed our stay at Loon Cove tremendously. The house was beautiful, bright and well-maintained. We had six adults and a two-year old and there was plenty of room for everyone and plenty to do. Kayaks, bicycles, fishing poles, table tennis, board games, books, fully stocked kitchen, tons of towels, blankets, etc. Access to the lake was easy and the weather was great. We would certainly consider visiting again.

Perfect family escape on Toddy Pond
This house was the perfect spot for our annual summer lake trip. Plenty of bedrooms and configurations to comfortably sleep everyone and lots of fantastic common area space. Super comfortable living room (lots of cozy seating), spacious kitchen, and a giant dining table (though we ate most meals on the outdoor deck overlooking the lake). We loved being able to send the kids outside or to the basement to play. Toddy Pond is magical, and this house and space made it all the more so. We hope to return for future trips.

This is our second stay at Toddy Pond, and it was just as wonderful as the first time! Love the house and the view! Great space for our family of ten! Our only wish is for a third bathroom. Love being able to canoe from the dock and Acadia hiking during our week there.
We recommend the Searsport Maritime Museum and the beach park across the street, Fort Knox, and the Penobscot Bridge Observatory, Castine, and Bar Harbor visits, all within reach of this lovely house. Hoping for a return visit.

Loons!
Probably the highlight of the property was that we heard the loons often.
Pros: This is a nice house and is aesthetically pleasing. The check in was very easy. We’ve stayed in several VRBOs and this one was by far the best stocked with supplies. We really appreciated this. The property was incredibly quiet. The neighbors are spaced to give privacy.
Con’s: although the furniture looked nice, there was not one piece of furniture that was comfortable to sit on. The sofas and loveseat are incredibly soft with zero support. When you sit you sink. This was not pleasant for our backs. So it was hard to find a spot that we could get comfy in to read or watch tv.
Also, although it probably was just bad luck for us, the a/c unit in the primary bedroom was not working (heat pump issue I believe). There was a window unit that worked but it was incredibly loud and not up to the overall standard we were expecting. The primary shower is probably past its prime, the door would stick and it was hard to open, also had stains that come from age (along the door), not horrible, but not the standard we were expecting. One last thing…the dock. Perhaps it’s a drought year in the area but the dock was not long enough or needed steps into the water. It was difficult to get in and out of the water to swim. You had to ease yourself off the one step onto some very large and slippery rocks. I cannot imagine how children would be able to navigate this. Again, perhaps the water line is usually higher.

Relaxing winter getaway
This was our second time staying here and it was just as relaxing as the first. Went hiking and visited Ellsworth during the day, sat by the beautiful fireplace at night playing games with the family. The location is so remote and quiet you really feel like you're leaving the world behind. Highly recommend.

Perfect Maine weekend
We had a lovely stay at loon cove. Our kids made wonderful summer memories swimming off the dock and catching frogs. We loved the view of the lake from the master and listening to the loons in the evening. The house was spotless and very well equipped, including fishing gear, 2 bikes and countless lifejackets. Football and ping pong in the basement are a blast and the play kitchen down there was great for our littlest. Speaking of kitchens, the kitchen was extremely well equipped. (There is a drip machine and a keurig for anyone wondering what form of coffee to bring). This was the perfect weekend to cap off the summer, and look forward to another chance to stay here.

Thumbs up for this one! Our family had a wonderful time at Toddy Pond. We loved the house location, size, and amenities. We rented canoes and thoroughly enjoyed the lake. We were within reach of Bar Harbor and Acadia and enjoyed hiking there. We enjoyed a visit to the Penobscot bridge observatory and Fort Knox. Groceries were conveniently nearby. We all would love a return visit!

Dan and Dana fell in love with Maine on their very first visit, and now live in Cape Elizabeth, Maine. While we love southern Maine, our heart lies with Toddy Pond. We hope to spend the entire summer at Toddy some day...
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
When we moved from Boston to the South in 2002, we had a dream about retiring to Maine some day. When we stumbled on this lakefront gem, we knew it was destiny. It's so quiet and peaceful, but lives like a "real house" not a lakefront cabin or something. We were smitten and the rest is history.
この宿泊施設の特徴
The way the house sits elevated above the water, with the huge deck looking out through the trees at the lake is just spectacular. You could just sit on the deck for hours. The fact that it's situated in a cove is just a bonus -- the cove is always calm and perfect for swimming. The finished basement with ping pong, foosball and its own TV area is always a hit with the kids. The living area is just spectacular -- a two story living room with a massive granite fireplace and huge wall of windows facing the lake makes every day a beautiful day.
