Our spacious vacation home is located in the Wildewood Estates in Rome, Maine. Wildewood Estates is a community of vacation homes and cabins on Long Pond, one of the Belgrade Lakes in Central Maine.
While our home is not a lakefront property, Wildewood Estates has a private beach (picture above) and a boating area for all of its member homes. It takes 10 minutes to walk from our home to either the beach or boating area but there is also parking for those who prefer to drive (less than 2 minutes). The beach area also has a swing set, picnic benches, and a port-a-potty for convenience. The swimming area is marked off and there are two swim docks for everyone’s enjoyment. Our beach area is very private as it borders conservation land and is perfect for both children and adults. Please note: dogs are not allowed in the beach area.
There is also a community recreation area immediately adjacent to our home that features a small basketball court (paved), a volleyball/badminton set up (sandy), and horse shoe pits. Bring your own equipment.
Additionally the private association roads are great for walking, running and biking. Wildewood Estates also borders the Kennebec Highlands reservation area which features several excellent hiking paths with beautiful outlooks over the Belgrade Lakes region (maps at - under "nearby" tab).
Our home is a large ranch home on 3 acres of land. It has an open layout, vaulted ceilings, and features 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths (one is a master), eat-in kitchen, dining room, living room, family room , screened porch, and deck. It is the perfect family vacation home! There is driveway parking for 2+ cars. The association beach and boating areas provide lake access for swimming and for kayaks, canoes, and paddle boards. Powerboats can be accommodated but require additional discussion with owner.
Home details: The master bedroom has a queen bed, love seat, dresser, small walk-in closet, and a master bath with Jacuzzi tub and shower. The second bedroom has a queen bed, dresser, and large closet. The third bedroom has a double bed and bunk beds (twin). The living room has a love seat, overstuffed chair, and futon. The dining room seats 8. The kitchen is fully equipped with gas stove, 18 cubic foot refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, toaster oven, and dining and cooking ware. There is also a gas grill outside. The family room has a couch, love seat, two comfy armchairs, and a wood burning fireplace (spring and fall only; not used in summer). The screened porch is off the family room and has a table with seating for 6. The backyard is large and surrounded by trees.
Wifi is provided but we offer no TV service apart from the internet; prefer games, puzzles, and quiet so bring your favorite games with you and your own electronics if desired. ☺

About the host
Hosted by Dan Szatkowski
My wife and I began vacationing in Belgrade Lakes in 1987. All eight of our children (all adults now) and our eight grandchildren love the Belgrade Lakes! We purchased our own vacation home in 2012 and a second in 2016 to accommodate our clan. This second house we rent through VRBO.
Why they chose this property
We love the size and location of our home. The interior is open and bright, the setting is country and lakeside, and the community (Wildewood Estates) is terrific. Our home provides a restful and inexpensive country/lake vacation. Long Pond is a beautiful deep water lake; it is quiet and not overbuilt. Come once and you will always want to return!
What makes this property unique
We love the Belgrade Lakes! The lakes and entire region are beautiful. The village of Belgrade Lakes, just a 5 mile drive around the lake, is a delightful place to visit. There you find ice cream, gift shops and restaurants.
