About this property
It's better to wake at the lake! 3 bedroom with lovely lakefront view
A sign that greets you as you enter our lovely lake front home. Wake up and experience quiet mornings to watch the sun rise over Tripp Lake (or wake in time to watch the sunset, we don't judge!)
[[PRIOR TO BOOKING, PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION BELOW CAREFULLY]]
*** About the property*** We feel the house offers a classic, rustic atmosphere. What you'll walk into is a wood-paneled cabin-styled home with a common room, kitchen, bathroom and three bedrooms. Each bedroom is prepared with clean linens and pillows prior to your arrival. We also can provide a canoe for you to use on Tripp Lake. Aside from the necessities, we offer some modern amenities– mainly fast speed WiFi (500 mbps) if you need to do some side work. Window air conditioning for only the common living area.
Need a change of scenery? We can offer some recommendations in the area or beyond. Explore the surrounding town of Poland, or go further into the neighboring towns or to the city of Portland!
Aside from that you'll have the ability to really make your New England summer into your own, and we'll be happy to be a part of that experience.
*** Please note *** > While we prefer renters who rent for seven (7) days minimum, we also are accommodating of those interested in staying for a minimum of three (3) days. Please shoot us a message and we'd be happy to chat. (For those that do stay with us longer than 7+ days, we do check-in to remove any trash or replace any soiled linens). We are only equipped to host up at a max 14-night stays with our property in its current state. > Our home is non-smoking (we just restored it and hope to keep it in top shape for years to come). > We do have a water filtration system in place. However, we do advise renters to not directly drink as its drawn directly from the lake, and bring potable water. > To remedy this, we provide a "starter kit" of a few days of water and clean linens. Please ask if you need any additional items! > Our policy on pets is negotiable. Please do message us about your pet and we'll do our best to accommodate. > We also do have a renters' agreement and disclaimer that is required for all of our guests' staying that repeat details further about payment, cancellations and house rules. Deposit of $500 is due with the signing of this agreement. > We also ask for a refundable security deposit, which will be given back pending inspection of the property no egregious damage and excessive cleaning.

About the host
Hosted by Jin Lau
We're a small family that moved to Maine over 30 years ago. I've raised my family here by working my own hairdressing/barbering business. I and my family work in service of others, and enjoy trying to make someone's day with meticulous attention to detail. We're quite fortunate to have share our lake home with guests to experience some of what Maine offers. We enjoy the outdoors, whether high up on the mountains or fishing by the water and hope you come to love it as well.
Why they chose this property
In a couple of words: the quietness, laid-back and friendly neighborhood. It also doesn't hurt that there are many outdoors activities around in the area and surrounding towns. I personally enjoy fishing on the lake (on my off days, I venture down on the coast and towards Cape Cod).
