It was a great place on the lake/ pond. I wished it would’ve been warmer to use the kayaks. The host made sure that we had an iron so we could get our clothes pressed for my daughter’s wedding. It’s a ways out of town but it was well worth it.

We had a wonderful stay! The house was nice and accommodating for a party our size (4 adults, 5 kids). The kids basically took over the downstairs and had the best time. The lake was beautiful and we had a great time fishing off the dock! Owner was very responsive and helpful. We hope to come again next year!

We live in Augusta. When my sister-in-law passed away, we decided to find a quiet place to stay while our home intown has several 'projects' taking place. 62 Bumpy Road was an incredible find. The peace and tranquility are second to none. Not all lakefront homes are located in a cove with a pair of loons(!), a barred owl and a screened in porch to enjoy it all from. A well-stocked kitchen and games and puzzles for evenings and rainy days. It is a great spot and easily accessible from the interstate and major inland routes. Close to town yet as quiet as you can get. We will recommend this to friends coming to visit anytime of the year - the stars, the sunsets (and the HUGE TV in the downstairs!) are worth every penny!

Family Vacation

The home was well maintained and very pleasant, lots of room and stocked with everything we needed. Togus Pond is a very nice pond. We were a little disappointed with the area for swimming (rather rocky and weedy), but we still enjoyed the water and the canoe and kayaks.

Great house

We had a great stay in this cute lake house. The house is clean and really well equipped and the lake was everything we hoped for and more! Spent many days on the water and also did two day trips to Portland and Boothbay (both about an hour away). Overall a great vacation!

Beautiful location on the lake and amazing view from the screened in porch. The owner is very accommodating and easy to communicate with. Unfortunately we were there because our Dad was at the Togus VA hospice and the house provided our family a place to gather and be together. The kitchen is well stocked, the basement has lots of room for sleeping and playing. The living room and kitchen is open and great for family gatherings. Highly recommend this home!

Relaxing home away from home

This is a very cozy home that gives plenty of space to relax and spread out. The canoe and 2 kayaks were fantastic to have access to and this is a great location on Togus Pond. The kitchen is well stocked and we had all we needed for the bathrooms. We would definitely return!
