Ready, set—-we got you covered!

Book early. Pack your bags. Near the end of a mile long single lane dirt road(well maintained year round), you will find a secluded waterfront home situated in a quiet cove on coveted Square Pond (nearly 900 acres —5 miles of water)with expansive deck above a cascading, terraced lawn down to the waterfront. Crystal clear water for boating, swimming and fishing awaits. Sleeps 6 with two baths. Quiet and relaxing. Docks(2)and kayaks (4)and paddle boards available in the summer season. Modern home with WiFi and televisions. Forty steps from the water. Westerly view with afternoon sun. Sunsets!!

About the host

Hosted by Allan Krans

Host profile image
We are a large multi- generation family in New England with family ties to Minnesota. We are direct descendants of Nicholas Doe who emigrated from England to Dover NH in 1662. Later in the mid 19th century, descendants moved to Maine to work in the timber trade—migration to Stillwater Minnesota to continue in timber work followed. In 1978, we returned to Dover NH and in 2019, we returned to Maine.

We gather often to celebrate, relax, create memories, and enjoy life. Choose our lake home for your next vacation.

Why they chose this property

We are committed to assisting you. We hope you enjoy your stay. A recent guest wrote in our Journal as follows: “I have tears in my eyes as I write because it is our last full day and we don’t want to leave. “All the comforts of home with the serenity of the lake at our fingertips.”

What makes this property unique

Not all water bodies are the same. Choose carefully. Square Pond is one of the cleanest water bodies in the region. Big enough for boating; calm enough for kayaks. Enjoy either of our two docks for charcuterie, laughter and sunsets. Make family memories.
