Why they chose this property

If you like a lake that's full of activity, with lots of roaring speed boats, this is not your place. Set on four acres of land, with just two nearby neighbors, one on either side, this is a true retreat. Comfortable and modern but set among the woods, Loon Cove is, truly, 'the way life should be'.

What makes this property unique

If you're looking for a quiet and natural place to unwind with your loved ones, or a place to relax, think about the future, read or write, this is the place. With all the comforts of home, but surrounded by the feel of central Maine, and the slower pace of the Belgrade Lakes area and the Kennebec Valley region.
