Because this cabin was built on the location of the original 1936 camp, it sits just 12 feet from the shore of Woods Pond with unobstructed views of the water. All the newly built rental homes on the pond are set back from the water by over 200 feet with their water views screened by trees.
My property features an extra-large, groomed lawn with no rocks, tree roots, or divots to trip over while you play or make your way to the water. This is a marked contrast to the newly built properties where you could easily twist or break an ankle on the bumpy ground. My lawn is perfect for playing horseshoes, badminton, whiffleball, volleyball, croquet, soccer, and more.
This cabin features a 16' foot wide sandy beach. This is a highly unique and desirable feature since the newer properties on the pond only have rocky shorelines and no beaches. The 16-foot-wide beach can be accessed simply by walking down from the lawn onto the sand.
At this property, you’ll have the unique opportunity to share daily life in close quarters with some of Maine’s most iconic creatures. The Maine loon–known as the “Queen of the Pond”—makes her nest 1,000 feet away from the log home, where you will hear and see her daily in the early summer months. There is also an eagle nest at the end of the pond where the home is located. The eagle hunts around the pond daily and you’ll often see him soaring majestically above with a massive 7-foot wingspan. If you’re lucky, you’ll witness the eagle catching a meal out of the pond right in front of the cabin. It’s a moment that will leave you breathless, like a National Geographic program happening live right before your eyes. If you have a telephoto lens for your camera, be sure to bring it to capture this beautiful eagle in flight.
