About this property

Meet "Camp George 2", the sister camp of "Camp George" located 4-1/2 miles away on the same beautiful Lake Arrowhead (visit VRBO.com/587592). When this property came on the market we immediately knew we had to own it. It is very private - you can't see any neighboring houses. Three private bedrooms and a large open concept living area with 1-1/2 baths all on one level opening to a huge (400 square foot) rear deck overlooking the private wooded back yard, more than 100' of shoreline and a private dock. Our "unfinished basement" adds another 1,000 square feet of guest friendly space. Here we have our laundry area, a table and 4 bistro chairs for board games or puzzles, an extensive assortment of DVDs, VHS tapes, board games and puzzles, a 55" Roku TV with a DVD/VCR player, ping pong, shuffleboard, practice golf putting, etc. Best of all, the adjoining lot is "Beach #1", owned and maintained by Lake Arrowhead Community Association. This beach is more than 100' wide with a cordoned off area providing safe swimming for children, picnic tables and toilet facilities. It is not open to the general public, just homeowners within the Lake Arrowhead community and their guests.

Clean and comfortable.

Cabin is very nice and was clean. Quite a steep hill down to the water. Porch could use a hand rail and bathroom tub needs a security bar. Linens not on beds and if you use the ones provided you must launder them before checking out or you will be charged a fee.

Accurate listing, welcoming owners, great quiet fun away from the rest of the world.

My family of 4 stayed at camp George 2 this August for a week. Gps got us there without a hitch. Upon arrival I was remarkably impressed with how accurate the listing for the property is to what was provided. You definitely get what they tell you they are offering! There's are no absurd house rules as with some previous houses we've stayed in either. The owners definitely provide a great vacation experience with this property. Everything we needed to use the property to it's fullest was provided (one exception potentially being child sized life vests but they mention that in the listing). The house is well organized to find things that you're looking for. The basement was a kids dream with all the old fashioned screenless fun you could enjoy. They had ample fun board games too! If the basement doesn't have it, the clubhouse did with a billiards table, air hockey and indoor pool. While we didn't rent the pontoon it was stationed on our dock as a "floating porch" and we enjoyed it immensely and it became a favorite place to enjoy the morning coffee (even if we spilled it all the way down the hill). If it hadn't been there, there were also benches up from the dock for the same enjoyment. The water crafts were in great supply and they also had fishing supplies which was super helpful since we forgot our tackle box at home. The laundry facility in the basement was a perfect set up. All the beds were creak-free and very comfortable. The kitchen was nicely stocked for cooking.

A Great Choice for us.

We usually go to Maine for the beaches, but we decided to try a place on a lake this year. This place has everything you could want, kayaks, canoes, fishing rods, games like ping pong, fuse ball, plenty of games, puzzles. There are a couple of fire pits, air conditioning in every room, a beautiful view of the lake and privacy. The house was really clean and well stocked with the essentials. We had an excellent stay at Camp George 2, and.look forward to going back!

Wonderful stay on Lake Arrowhead

We really enjoyed our time at the lake. My husband and I as well as our three college age kids found the house very welcoming and George was super accommodating. The lake is beautiful and unusual in that much of it is undeveloped. We kept waiting for a moose to appear which did not happen but the loons were everywhere and not at all bothered by people. We rented the boat and enjoyed checking out the lake and fishing. The location so close to Old Orchard Beach, Freeport, Portland and North Conway gave all of us plenty to do. I highly recommend the house and we plan to return next year.

About the host

Hosted by George Vargish

My wife Audrey and I live in New Hampshire, 70 miles from our two "Camp George" lakefront cottages. We are both retired, and our passion as Master Gardeners is to maintain our New Hampshire gardens and become involved in UNH Cooperative Extension projects. We have designed and installed registered pollinator gardens in Sandown and Auburn, NH. We both love the state of Maine and all of the wonderful attractions that the state provides. We especially like waterfront settings, both lakes and ocean, and enjoy exploring new areas when we can.

Why they chose this property

When this property came on the market we just had to own it. Unlike many other lakes in Maine, Lake Arrowhead has meandering coves and islands that are exciting to explore. It is the only "Trophy Bass Lake" certified by the state of Maine, and it is approximately 1100 acres in size. This property enjoys 111 feet of waterfront with a private dock. Its gently sloping wooded lot provides great views of the lake.

What makes this property unique

What sets this property apart from other lakefront cottages is its immediate neighbor - "Beach #1", which is owned and managed by Lake Arrowhead Community. This beach is not open to the general public - it only serves Lake Arrowhead community residents and their guests within the association. You literally can walk onto a beautiful 100+ foot stretch of sandy beach providing a cordoned off area for the kids from the edge of our property. The cottage is also very private - you can't even see any neighboring houses.
