About this property

Pokomoke a Classic Sebago Lake Cottage

Pokomoke is a classic cottage sitting in a private location on Sebago Lake. Every room in the house looks out to the beautiful views of Sebago Lake. Two queen bedrooms upstairs and a futon in the living room sleep six in the main house. The main house has a full bath upstairs. The lake cabin has a queen and a twin (no bathroom). The woods cabin has one queen and two twins and a sink. The kitchen has all the amenities of home. Phone, internet/ WiFi and TV keep you in touch with the outside world (if you want to keep in touch). The grounds around the main house and cabins are level great for games, lounging in the hammock or sitting by the firepit. A flight of stairs lead you down the hill to the dock and a pebble beach. The water at the dock is deep most times of the year. Sebago is controled by a dam and occasionally water levels can vary. A mooring is available for a boat tie up at night. Pokomoke can accommodate 10-12 guests however, it lies in a quiet neighborhood and it has classic beauty both of which need to be respected. Pokomoke has been in the same family for nearly 1oo years.

Great vacation!
We stayed 2 weeks at Pokomoke! It was amazing. The main house had plenty of space for everyone with big bedrooms and 2 living rooms. The cabins were also very big. The yard was big enough for a canopy or 3 with room for yard games. The washer and dryer were a great perk. The water was deep but crystal clear. There may be a few stairs to the water but the dock was big enough to pack a cooler for the day and limit your trips back and forth. The property manager was great to work with. Very friendly and very responsive. Overall, a great experience!

Amazing Family Vacation!
Our family took their yearly vacation to Pokomoke this year. There was plenty of space for all of us to be cozy and content sleeping. The views from the main floor of the house were just amazing. Even though our week was mostly rain, we enjoyed being in the same house relaxing, playing games, and hanging out, all while having plenty of space to do so! The lake water was high, so the pebble beach was under water, but the water was refreshing to swim in when the sun came out. The stairs coming back up from the dock were brutal though-there were so many! The property manager was so friendly and helpful! The location of the house to the store was perfect and walking the neighbor with the dogs was great. We will definitely add this to places to come back too! It was a fantastic week at an amazing lake home.

Perfect Week on the lake
We had a perfect stay at Pokomoke. My partner in crime and 10 teenage girls had the best week. The cabins were the best, allowing 4-5 girls sleep in each. That allowed the main house to be quiet and stress free:) Can’t say enough about the great property and the views. The lake is the cleanest I’ve ever been in. With the only downside of it being very windy. Keep that in mind when having a boat. He sure to use the mooring as much as possible. Overall a perfect week. Only thing I would suggest for any group over 5 is to bring your own grill! They only have a small charcoal Weber and it is nearly impossible to grill on it for 10 people.

Terrific Scenic Property with direct access to Sebago
WE had a group of friends and this was perfect to give everyone space and enjoy Sebago ME at it's best. The property was a bit rustic so be aware but makes up for it with views and size. One sitting room is fairly updated and comfortable for sitting and entertaining with food and friends. Kids should be watched because it is on a height above lake and a lot of fun nick nacks around. Guys were fine with atmosphere and second shed bathroom. Girls a bit more concerned with spider webs but had a ball in the kitchen and with cuisinart for cooking. Boaters should know minimal options to launch on lake especially west side. Long beach marina was a beach access and a bit shallow over 20ft boat. Mooring at property this trip was a bit rough due to wind direction coming into cove. Trailering a boat needs to be under about 9ft wide to turn into property road around trees unless dropping right at marinas. Sandra was great help and very available if needed.
