About this property

☼ Maine Lakefront Getaway ☼

Our beautiful Maine lakefront getaway offers all the modern conveniences in a traditional camp-style three bedroom home on the shore of pristine Sabbath Day Lake, a 1.5 mile lake in the Sebago Lakes region.

Enjoy beautiful sunsets and stunning views of the lake from our two decks, living room, kitchen and master bedroom. We have a main bedroom upstairs with king-size bed and private bathroom, a bedroom on the ground floor with queen-size bed and private bathroom, and a loft area upstairs with two single beds.

We have a private beach area (size depends on water level of lake) and a shared private beach with nearby homes. Enjoy swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, standup paddle boards or just sit back and listen to the loons and look for our bald eagles. Modern conveniences include a/c, dishwasher, wi-fi, washer/dryer, microwave, 50-inch TV, small office space. Newly renovated kitchen and bathrooms.

You’ll never want to leave the camp, but if you do, we are just 24 miles from Portland, 17 miles from Freeport, and minutes from the Maine Wildlife Park, Sabbathday Lake Shaker Village, Pineland Farms, and the Oxford Casino. We are also just minutes away from golf courses, shopping and restaurants.

Family vacation

The property on the lake was just what we needed. We enjoyed coffee and reading on the deck and dock. It was wonderful to use the kayaks and paddle boards. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had all the cooking tools you could need. It is close by many great things to visit.

Relaxing Time

We had a wonderful stay during our trip to Maine. The house is beyond stocked with all that you need for your week - beds were comfy and the view of the pond from the master bedroom was stunning. Great location to day trip to Freeport and Portland.

All the comforts of home with great Lake views, close to everything else you might need

3 Mini split ACs for total cooling was an absolute delight as was the WIFI! Fully adorned kitchen and an amazing primary suite with great lake views from all lake facing windows. An updated ensuite shower and bathroom on the second floor was wonderful. There is a queen front bedroom on the first floor with access to the first floor bathroom/tub shower. There are additional twin double beds upstairs as well, off the primary. The primary bedroom has an incredibly comfortable king bed. Fishing was steady, and you DO need water shoes (which our Host Jerry pointed out well in advance), if you take a dip off the dock due to the rocky bottom. There’s a shared beach 2 doors down that has a sandy and gradual grade into the water. A Canoe and 3 kayaks await. Jerry is accessible, prompt, detailed and accommodating should you have questions. This is a lovely home and we enjoyed our stay, as well as the lake, dock, view, A/C and access to Hannaford’s Supermarket and Pineland Farms café, bakery and shop - not to be missed.

Fantastic Stay!!!

Traveled from New Mexico to visit with my son. I was looking for a place which would be near my son's residence giving us a centralized place to meet. It was just a few minutes away from my son's residence. House served all our needs and was clean and neat. Beautiful views from windows and deck. Will definitely stay again!!!

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
Robyn calls it a "lakehouse," Jerry calls it a "camp," we hope you'll call it perfect. We live in upstate New York and have always wanted to own our own lakefront property. We graciously open it up to you to share the beauty and relaxation of Maine lakefront living.

Why they chose this property

We purchased this home to be near our darling new granddaughter in Portland and now we are blessed to have a second granddaughter! We love Portland, the Maine coast, and lakefront vacations. We graciously open up our home to you to share the beauty and relaxation of Maine lakefront living.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this place as soon as we saw it. The stunning views and private, easy access to the lake were everything we ever wanted in a vacation home.
