Delightful vacation at a lovely lake home

Pristine new home awaits you! We enjoyed the large spaces and the ability to invite friends and family to join. We kayaked on Graham Lake (thanks to the Activity Shop in Blue Hill). The house was located close to our favorite spots - Acadia - Cadillac Mountain, Puffin Boat Tour and Fort Knox.

Hello Ed and thanks for your feedback. We are almost exactly 30 miles from Acadia, so obviously depending on traffic it can take anywhere from 30 mins to an hour. Safe travels home.

This house is amazing! It is the perfect oasis after a day exploring Maine. The layout of the house was perfect and gave everyone quiet peaceful rest areas and large gathering spaces for us to be together. The setting of the house is peaceful and the view of the lake is beautiful. The house is well equipped and really felt more like home than a vacation rental. Of course our family favorite was the screen in porch area. The host was easy to work with and check in and check out was a breeze. 5 stars is really not enough for this house.

Beautiful house on Maine lake

As a group of 7, we really enjoyed this spacious house on a beautiful lake in Maine. Lots of space and we LOVED the outside space with the outdoor fireplace. The house has a ton of features that make the space very enjoyable. (Loved those heated floors in the bathrooms). The kayaks were a plus as we enjoyed a morning row on the lake. Matt was very responsive when I had questions. Overall, a great experience.

Maine Lake House

This house rental fit our family's needs perfectly. Knowing we would want to the option to NOT go hiking at the national park, we wanted a place we knew would be comfortable and spacious for our family of seven adults and one infant. Bedrooms and their accompanying bathrooms are nicely separated from one another, affording individuals and/or couples plenty of personal space and privacy. The screened in back patio with fireplace was hands-down everyones favorite room. Kitchen is great and had everything we needed. Bathrooms were big, clean and the showers were a delight after a day of hiking.

Glad you enjoyed the getaway and the house! We designed it just for what you said, so everyone visiting can have only of room to hang out together, but also private areas if they need time alone. Im glad you found that to meet your needs as well! Come back anytime and thanks for being a great guest!

A serene escape

I had the pleasure of staying at a stunning lake house in Maine, and I can't express enough how amazing my experience was. This retreat provided a perfect blend of tranquility and natural beauty, making it an ideal getaway for my family. The panoramic views of the pristine lake and the surrounding lush greenery were simply awe-inspiring. It truly felt like a hidden gem tucked away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The picturesque setting offered a peaceful ambiance that allowed me and the family to unwind and connect with nature. My experience at this beautiful lake house in Maine surpassed all expectations. The stunning location and luxurious accommodations made it a truly unforgettable retreat.
