Om overnatningsstedet

Booking for 2019 Lakefront, privat, hundevenlig, kano og nu 2 kajakker

Waterfront sommerhus på Sand Pond i de smukke vestlige Maine bjerge, rustikke men nyligt moderniseret, fuldt møbleret køkken, håndklæder og sengetøj. Hyggeligt og indbydende. Et skridt op til sommerhus, badeværelse og soveværelse på første sal, let skråning og et par trapper til søen og dock gør det muligt for ældre gæster eller dem med begrænset mobilitet. Det er lille (756 kvadratfod), men sover 3-6 voksne komfortabelt. Katedral loft og nye Hunter loft ventilator i stuen gør det føles rummeligt og luftigt. Screenet i våbenhuset og nedenunder soveværelset har loft fans; 2 ovenpå soveværelser og hver har en gulv fan og cross-ventilation. Dette er en stille (undtagen i snescooter sæson) vinterlejr med en lavvandet (gennemsnitsdybde 13 fod, 23 meter på dens dybeste punkt), varm sandstrand, 40'-dock med ottekant, over en blindgydevej (og snescootere trail, sjov for mountainbiking og vandreture), så det kan ikke være velegnet til småbørn, da andre lejrsboliger bruger vejen. Stat certificeret som Smart House i august 2009, brug af miljøvenlige produkter påkrævet. Generator installeret 2012. Firepit og kul grill er lige på vandet, over snavsvejen fra hytten. Gas grill tilføjet maj 2017.

Båd og fiskeri: dammen er kendt for at være fuld af store mund bas og hvid og gul aborre, og loons serenade hver sommer aften. 2-personers kano, 4-personers pedalbåd, 2 nye kajakker, 7 redningsvest. Ingen store motorbåde er til stede på dammen, men gæsterne er velkomne til at tage kajak, robåd eller kano.

PLEASURES AT THE CAMP:
Dette er et meget landligt område, ikke for dem, der ønsker konstant underholdning, men fantastisk til læsning på verandaen (helt screenet i løbet af april 2009, kun de første to billeder afspejler dette) med udsigt over dammen eller på den store ottekantede dock eller sidder i foran brændeovnen. Der er også en propanvarmer til de koldere måneder (året rundt, isoleret hus). Klimaanlæg til stuen, der bruges en gang i 2013, briser fra dammen, som regel holder det behageligt.
Brændeovn og picnic bord ved vandkanten. Mest populære aktiviteter: Lytning til lommerne, solnedgang, svømning, sejlads og vandreture, bærplukning, køling i en veranda gyngestol, hummergrillning, samling med venner omkring ildstedet efter solnedgang, brætspil. Land linje telefon i sommerhuset. Mobiltelefon modtagelse er god på verandaen, i hvert fald for Verizon og Maine Cellular abonnenter: Iffy modtagelse til ATT, TMobile, Sprint. HDTV Satellit / højhastigheds internet / WiFi; tv-modtagelse kan ikke garanteres under overskyet vejr.

Ting at nydes i nærheden:
Du kan hurtigt finde lille byliv 10 miles væk i Farmington og ved University of Maine, shopping, en biograf og bowlingbane til regnfulde dage. sommerkonserter og sommerteater i nærheden, et par spændende restauranter, to uafhængige boghandlere, en isbarre, antikke butikker i nærliggende byer og en sommerboers marked. 15 minutter at vælge jordbær og blåbær i sæsonen og købe friskfanget hummer. En halv time til Mt. Blue State Park, 45 minutter nord til naturskønne Rangeley med strålende efterårsløv og dramatisk udsigt over bjergene (og du kan se elg), skiløb lokalt på Titcomb Mountain og det er lige fra Saddleback, Sugarloaf og Sunday River. Sand Pond er cirka 3 1/2 timer fra Boston og 90 - + 20 minutter fra kysten.

PRIVAT MEN IKKE 'FRA GRIDEN':
Mens du ikke kan se en tilstødende lejr, forstærkes støj over vand, så hvis nogen i nærheden sætter 20 personer rundt om deres ildsted og har en fest, skal du høre det. Det sker ikke tit, det er ikke et frat party område, for det meste ejer besat, men absolut ro kan ikke garanteres. Også dette er ikke den sidste lejr på denne dødvej: 7 naboer længere nede ad vejen bruger det, så biler, lastbiler, ATV'er, cykler, folk, der går eller kører med deres hunde, kommer lige foran huset.

Refresh vacation

We enjoyed our stay and being able to enjoy nature and decompressing from the busy every day routine.. The cottage was nuce and we enjoyed the screened in porch and watching the lake and sunset. Beds were very comfortable. Loons were great and came close to be able to really see them. Fishing was good we did catch some Bass. Restaraunts were good but a distance to get to. Great place to relax and get away. Was a little.too cool to seim but woukd have enjoyed that water was clear but you may want water shoes. Nice vacation spot. Owner was great and anytbing we needed we just reached out to property manager who was one road over. Everyone there was friendly but overall you felt like you had the place to yourslef.

Peaceful Cabin on a Pond

Owner very friendly, stayed in communication with me right up until arrival. Check in went smoothly. Beautiful view of pond at dock. Kayaks, Canoe, and pedal boat added to the kids great time at the cabin. Fished for 4 days. Mouse droppings on kitchen counter every morning. Lost a loaf of bread on Day 1. Bought new loaf and just stored it in microwave. Didn't notice them anywhere else. Washer and dryer made it very convenient with being on the water every day. Thank you Carol for sharing your cabin with us.

Peace and quiet in rural Maine.

I grew up near this area, so I was familiar with the area and what this part of Maine has to offer. I chose this property for my out-of-state family’s visit because of the water access and the quiet, wooded nature of the surrounding. My family had a quiet, enjoyable stay. We were all surprised at some of the modern features that you don’t find at a “camp” on a small pond. The dish washer was an unexpected plus and the large capacity washer and dryer were very handy. If I had advice for people looking at this listing who are addicted to their electronic devices, rural Maine is not up to speed with the rest of the country. There is WiFi available at this camp, but data speed is very slow and it was prone to periodic disruptions. I highly recommend this listing for people who want to disconnect from the electronic world and just enjoy the nature.

Peaceful retreat!

Pinehurst Too is everything I was hoping. It brought back wonderful memories of a camp my family stayed at few summers growing. The location is perfect! Other cottages near by but I felt secluded. Walk in and felt right at home. Cottage is clean and had more amenities than I had expected (pots,pans, bowls misc spices, etc. The view of the pond is spectacular. Spent a good deal of the time on the screened in porch. (Favorite spot in the cottage.) one early morning I had the opportunity to use one of the kayaks and had the whole pond to myself. I am grateful for this wonderful experience, it was just what I needed and wished I could have stayed longer. I would go back in a heart beat. Carol was great to communicate with. She answer all my questions and concerns in a very timely manner. Thank you,

Nice getaway

We were looking for a relaxing place on a pond where we could stay with our dog. This place was very nice with a combination of rustic -classic Maine camp with many modern amenities. I had email correspondence with the owner Carol who was very pleasant and helpful. We were able to do some fishing and the clear water kept our dog entertained with the fish swimming by the dock. We used the canoe but came with our own kayaks, so we didn't use the two available kayaks or paddleboat. It was very quiet when we were there and it was a very nice stay and getaway. We were self-contained with our food so we didn't need to leave to go out to eat but maybe next time. I really enjoy this area and we hope to come back for another visit..maybe for a week next time. Love the screened-in porch during bug season. Great spot to chill near the water. I'd go back and it couldn't be too soon. Thanks, Carol. I appreciate you sharing your cottage with us. Nothing like time on and around water.

Relaxing lake house

The location is great, located close to Farmington Maine. We were able to get live lobsters and clams at Moshers not to far away as well as a Walmart and grocery store near by. The home is camp like, comfortable & well equipped with what we needed. Mike the contact person was attentive and helpful with any needs. Mike even directed us to come watch his fire work display that he orchestrated & was great. We were able to bring our dogs here which was a nice addition. The lake was warm and we loved watching the loons & baby. One couple walking one day offered us a lot of education on the loons. We had access to 2 kayaks, 1 canoe, and a peddle boat which was a nice addition. Carolyn Anderson the host was good at communicating with us and made an extended effort to get us directions to the camp because 48 hours before our stay a storm washed out a few roads that we needed to avoid. The only word of advice and this was no reflection on the home or owner is don’t count on cell or internet being reliable. Due to recent storms internet was unavailable. Carolyn made an effort to resolve this for us but due to a holiday week was not successful. We had 2 people that were intending on working remotely. 1 person was able to adjust but a 2nd guest had to come late and leave early due to this unfortunate circumstance. Carolyn did offer us a hot spot which was appreciated. I would 100 % recommend this location for a relaxing step away from hustle and bustle of life. Perfect family trip!

Pinehurst Too....Relaxing, private well appointed cottage right on beautiful Sand Pond

We had such a relaxing, wonderful stay at Pinehurst Too with our pups! Carol couldn't have made the check in process and information an easier! Right down to sending detailed directions on how to get there... especially on Maine camp roads when the gps isn't always spot on;) My husband was beyond ecstatic about those! We arrived with no issues and we're excited right away when we saw the larger than expected, screened-in porch with an amazing view of the pond. We loved that the porch included both rocking chairs & table & chairs where we ate breakfast, lunch & dinner watchimg the loons & ducks pass by. Our dogs really loved the freedom of walking in and out of the cabin out to the airy porch & they could see the pond. The cabin had everything you could possibly need while on vacation! Well stocked kitchen, dishwasher, toaster oven, you name it, it's there! Even kitchen staples, if you forgot it, most likely, Carol thought of it! Rooms were nicely decorated and had ceiling fans to keep the cabin nice & cool. The dock and waterfront were perfect for fishing for bass and taking the dogs for a swim! The paddle boat, kayaks and canoe were easily accessible and right there on the water. I was looking so forward to the paddle boat and it didn't disappoint;) We ended up bringing our own kayaks for fishing but forgot our paddles, thankfully those were included right at Pinehurst Too... The bass fishing was great, my husband is a much early riser than me and enjoyed fishing off the dock every morning with pretty good luck lots of good size fish, all catch & release. We also had a family of ducks in the cove every morning & evening as well as a few loons. At night you can see the stars so vividly from the dock and the fireplace is perfectly located on the hill just overlooking the pond. Many nights we heard the loons sereneding from Sand Pond & neighboring Locke Pond. We couldn't have hoped for a better vacation, the cottage was perfect, lots of privacy, quiet pond that isn't busy and camps are spread out. Great place to spend time with family and pups, would highly recommend Carol's place for a great get away!! Thanks again for everything Carol, we had a fabulous time and really enjoyed our time at Pinehurst Too!!! Heather, Scott, Koda & Kami

Quiet camping getaway

Overall the house was very cute and has everything you need during your stay. It is very much so in a rural place so if you are looking for a quiet private place this is it! There is a small downtown area about 20 minutes away in Farmington and it was fabulous! So many cute shops and amazing restaurants we made a whole day of it one day during the week. The owner was very responsive and made sure we were accommodated and clearly stated the policies and house rules so we never felt misguided. There were boats and a nice dock for us to use and we even saw loons! We went during a very hot week so there were quite a few bugs but that's what camping gets you. In all, if you are looking for a nice camping house with water activities and a cute small town atmosphere this is the place to go!

Om værten

Vært: Carol Anderson owner

Værtens profilbillede
I'm a quasi-retired university administrator and ESL teacher in NJ; theatergoer in New York City but need peace and quiet to balance that life. My great-grandfather bought a lakefront cottage in western Maine in the 1890s and I spent part of every summer of my childhood falling in love with this part of Maine and learning why generations of my family, mostly born in Jersey City, kept coming back to this very special place. Of course I brought my daughter here as a child to make sure she fell in love with it too! I like that my guests really enjoy this getaway and appreciate the unusually well equipped kitchen, the boats, and the hammock.

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

Sand Pond is 10 miles from a university town with some intellectual life, two good bookstores, a few good places to eat including a memorable ice-cream stand, a fresh-from-the-ocean lobster store, shopping for all the essentials, but not a mall in sight. It's too small for big noisy boats. There are only 30-odd camps on the pond and a similar number on Locke Pond right behind it off the same private road. I like the curvy country roads (in summer anyway), the mountain vistas driving anywhere, the warm shallow pond for swimming, the fact that I can't see or hear a neighbor but know several friendly folks are a phone call or a 2-minute drive away.

Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt

Compared to the last rental I took before buying, where a neighboring camp sounded like a remake of Animal House every weekend, this place is pristine and quiet. Loons serenade their partners every night and in 2022, a pair of owls. I like being able to build a fire in the wood stove, cook for my friends, sit on the porch with a glass of wine and a book, or on the dock with one hand in the pond. Guests comment on the exceptionally well furnished kitchen. You can boat around the pond and never see another human, or wave to children on a floating dock. Most of these cottages have not been gentrified or razed and replaced by McMansions, so it feels like a step back to a saner time and simpler pleasures--board games, jigsaw puzzles provided. If this scene makes you smile like it does me, you'll enjoy a stay here.
