About this property

Spectacular Cobbossee Lakefront with Hot Tub & Dog Friendly

Spacious, well-appointed year round home with 6 person hot tub (open all year), swim float, fire pit with free firewood, spectacular lake views and sunsets, air conditioning, cable TV, WIFI internet access, and beautiful lawn to the water's edge. Perfect romantic retreat for couples, or an inviting playground for a family vacation. Close to Colby College for graduation. Wake up to the relaxing sound of the loons with your own private waterfront with dock, canoe, 2 Old Town sit on top kayaks, and 2 stand up paddle boards. The house has hardwood floors throughout with a well-equipped kitchen, quartz countertops and gas stove. The living room opens up to a cozy sunroom overlooking the lake with 2 futons and a table for 8. The spacious master bedroom suite is on the main floor with a king sized bed, twin day bed, and private bath. Downstairs has 2 bedrooms (one with a queen sized bed and the other with 2 log bunkbeds with 4 twin XL mattresses) and a full bath. Each bedroom downstairs has its own sliding door to the patio, which has a hot tub and ping pong table overlooking the lake. Enjoy 130 feet of waterfront with dock and deep water for swimming, boating, and fishing. The entire property is fenced in and there is a shallow water entry for dogs or kayaks, etc. You can bring your own boat or rent one to enjoy the 10 mile long Cobbosseecontee Lake and world class bass fishing! The hot tub is open year round and there is a backup generator that powers the whole house during storms. There is excellent ice fishing near the house. Boats can be rented from Beacon Boat Rental or Lakeside Motel and Cabins. There are many restaurants nearby, a local ice cream shop, Absolem Cider House tasting room, and a new winery with restaurant in the area. Indoor Tennis, Pickleball and several Golf Courses can also be found nearby.

Please note: We have Ring cameras outside at the front (1 camera - covering the house to the entrance to the property) and the back (1 camera - covering from the house to the lake) of the property for safety when the house is not in use. We can turn them off during your stay if you prefer--- just let us know.

Our stay at this lake house last week was terrific!The dock was spacious and easy to access, we enjoyed the chairs, hammock and chaise lounges that were in the shaded area. The ping pong and cornhole games were very fun.We have rented many homes on many lakes over the past 40 years in Maine and this had the best porch with a high panoramic view of any of them.We had an unexpected family pup join for a day and the host was gracious about it.It’s a beautiful, clean lake with an easy marina to access.The AC was a godsend during the warm days and nights.Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy your home.

This was our 3rd. time staying in this home and there is a reason for that. House has everything you could need inside but mostly it's about the outside. Situated on a perfect spot of Cobbossee lake. Hot tub with lake views. Nice yard with fire pit, Adirondack chairs and hammock all with beautiful lake views. Rented a pontoon boat from Lakeside marina and kept at dock right in back yard (front yard?). Communication with host was quick and easy and check in and out was a breeze. Never want to leave.

This was one of the cleanest rentals I've ever stayed in, particularly considering that pets were welcome. The home had nearly everything we needed, the location was gorgeous, the couch and beds were comfortable -- our group of 4 adults and kids 8 - 15 had a great few days over the New Year holiday.

About the host

Hosted by Jenifer

Host profile image

I grew up on this beautiful lake!

Why they chose this property

Easy access to town and everything, but still feels miles away.

What makes this property unique

The sunsets are to die for! The island directly across will never be developed so you always have a peaceful view with lots of wildlife to enjoy. Bald eagles, osprey, the magical sounds of the loons, owls, foxes, beavers, etc. Not to mention the great bass fishing - even right off the dock.
