About this property

The Wee White Cottage is a small, but very comfortable and very clean lake side cottage on the west side of Tripp Lake, 125 Fernald Drive, Poland, ME. The lake is just steps outside the door! Great spot for fishing, kayaking, watching the loons, the eagles and herons. The sun rises directly across the lake, and the dock is a perfect spot for a cup of morning coffee. This is a studio arrangement with a lake view living area, a QUEEN size bed, pull out queen sofa, and a pull-out twin bed, fully equipped eat-in kitchen (no dishwasher), clean bathroom, with stand up shower. Suitable for a couple, or close friends. The cottage was recently painted and outfitted with an assortment of new and antique furnishings. It's very clean and very quiet. NO AIR CONDITIONING

2 kayaks available. No charge.

Wee White Cottage Was Wonderful !

The Wee White Cottage is at the end of a private road. In October when we stayed we had the neighborhood mostly to ourselves. It was wonderfully quiet. The cottage is rustic but nicely decorated and had everything we needed. It felt like home. The lake is only steps away. If I had to use only one word to describe our stay it would be relaxing!

Perfect week

We spent a lovely week at the cottage. The space is so cozy and the lake is beautiful. We had hot weather but even with no AC, the cross breeze and easy lake jumps kept us plenty cool. Loons were a treat! Would not hesitate to return! The camp has everything you need. It’s old and just a little bit funky but oozing with charm, just how a lake cabin should be. Bedding was comfy, kitchen was stocked! Kayaks were a dream. Thank you for having us!

Sept 2023

The cottage well depicted in pictures. Well equipped yet rustic. There is no room to enjoy indoor events of any kind or to sit for more than 1 or 2. TV reception non existent, wifi connection was good.The lakeside grounds are not for unsteady guests and the steps to dock are fairly steep, hazardous with pine needle droppings in the unrelenting rain for my stay.. The pine tree branches are low hanging and block a lot of the lakeview. Not a place I would rebook but I can see athletic parties who enjoy water activities liking it. The owner was responsive with good contact availability. Weather issues nothing owner can fix. In heavy rain there is a leak in kitchen near the left side of the microwave.

Heaven On Earth

This is the cutest, most comfortable, most quaint cottage ever. It’s on a gorgeous, clean lake with kayaks and a super fun lily pad. Dot is great and easy to communicate with.

Why they chose this property

Tripp Lake is a very special place for our family. The Wee White Cottage is set among tall pines, and family camps along the western shore. We own both the Wee White Cottage and a larger year round vacation home next door. We welcome guests that enjoy the peace and quite of a Maine lake.

What makes this property unique

Go to sleep in this cottage to the sounds of the loons. Wake up with the sun. Watch the moon rise from the dock. Kayak to sunset cove. Sip coffee on the new dock. Take a nap on the hammock. Swim in crystal clear waters. Check out the local farm markets, ice cream stands and antique stores.
