About this property

A Belgrade Lakes Destination, Very Private, Tranquil [Handicap Accessible]

As you enter the private gated entrance to The Pond House and descend through our fields, you will be in awe at the most picturesque vista in the Belgrade Lakes area. Positioned on several hundred private acres, the Pond House was built in 2020. It sits close to the waters edge and provides easy boating access to Long Pond and Belgrade Lakes Village. The house is handicap accessible, tastefully decorated with an open floor concept and sleeps 8. The main house has two queen size bedrooms. The attached annex also has a handicap bathroom and a queen size bed and full size bed. We allow up to two pets with a $125 additional pet fee. Pets are not allowed on the furniture.
We offer three kayaks, two canoes and a paddleboat. There is a large dock, swim raft and inner tubes. If you bring your own boat, you can launch it at the public boat launch on Long Pond and take the scenic cruise down Long Pond and Ingham Stream back to The Pond House. You can rent boats from Central Maine Boat & RV Rentals, phone 207-931-8820 or small fishing boats from Castle Island Camps on Long Pond, phone 207-495-3312. We do not allow jet skis or wakeboard boats. The large screened porch makes for enjoyable bug free evenings. Outside, enjoy sitting around the fire pit, playing a game of corn hole or relaxing in the hammock. There are miles of walking trails that you can access directly from the house.
While staying at the Pond House, you should go up to the field on a clear night and check out the Milky Way Galaxy. It will be directly overhead and is really something to see.
We only accept one week, Saturday to Saturday, rentals during July and August. Check in is anytime after 2pm. Check out is 10am.
IF YOU CARE TO SUPPLY YOUR OWN TOWELS AND SHEETS, PLEASE LET US KNOW AHEAD OF TIME AND WE WILL DEDUCT $200 FROM YOUR RENTAL FEE.
THE POND HOUSE IS AVAILABLE FOR WINTER RENTALS. WE ARE DIRECTLY ON THE LOCAL MAIN SNOWMOBILE TRAIL.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

What makes this property unique

Very private and secluded yet only 20 minutes away from goods and services. Awesome views for picture taking. A kayaker's heaven.
The winter brings on a whole new world with awesome ice fishing for large pike and crappie along with many trails for cross country skiing or hiking right from your door step. Bald eagles are very prevalent, especially during the winter months.
