Hyggelig Lakefront Cottage i Mid Coast Maine

Sara visited Maine as a child with her dad, who always had a dream to have a little cabin on a lake. Before her dad passed away, though he never gave himself his dream, he was able to visit and enjoy canoeing, and lobster dinners served up on the porch watching and listening to the loons with Sara. Belfast is still a community of people who are patient, kind and look out for one another ... life the way it should be!!

This is a very special place, as there is no public landing. So, most of the time, you'll have the lake to yourself if/when out in the kayak or canoe, or swimming, sunning, or just sitting on the shore enjoying the birdlife. Sometimes, you'll get quite a show of the eagles dancing and swirling overhead as they chase the fish below.

Belmont is conveniently located ten minutes from Belfast, where the Hannaford food market is available for all your food, liquor and pharmaceutical needs. Downtown has a wonderful food Co-op, complete with deli, cafe and natural foods, as well as local produce. There is a farmer's market on Fridays and Saturdays. Belfast is an arts community with plenty of galleries, festivals, theater and/or picnics on the harbor front with a walking and cycle-friendly promenade. There is a public, outdoor pool in the park, a YMCA with fitness facilities and indoor swimming pool, and bicycles for rent at the local cycle shop. There is so much to do, it's hard to choose. A welcome guide is provided in the home and full of recommendations for events, restaurants, shops, and area attractions.
