Location on lake was beautiful. First floor was super cute with a very comfortable layout. Nicely appointed with everything we needed. Love the sunroom/porch overlooking the lake. Outside was set up nice with fire pit area and kayaks and such. Giving 4 stars only because bedrooms were a little tight. No bathrooms upstairs which was ok but should take note of that if it matters to you. We were there for a training class nearby and the lake was drained a bunch for repairs so we did not take full advantage of the lake location, but we were saying it would be fun to come back when the lake is full and can bring a boat. Nice dock there. Right next to a park as well. Nice place if you’re looking for a lake getaway.

Cute Lake Cottage

We only had a couple of hiccups with the heat upon arrival and a small electrical issue, but the host communicated quickly and all was resolved without further inconvenience to our family. Clean. Beds were very comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked. Overall we had a great stay, would stay again, and recommend to others!

Great lake camp!

The property was just what we needed. We were in Maine to visit family, and we were allowed to have a cookout with our family. Enjoyed kayaking on the lake when it wasn't raining! Glad it was a cool week as I didn't notice in the listing that there is no air conditioning.

Lovely Spot

We enjoyed our long weekend at this property and the peaceful views of the lake. The house is well stocked with paper products, sheets are cozy and the fire pit offers quiet reflective time in the evening. Our only concern was that the property is not easily accessible if you are disabled or, like myself, am 94 and have to use a walker. Otherwise, my adult daughters both enjoyed kayaking on the lake and watching the loons. I think the spot would be perfect for a younger family to vacation.

A Lovely Week Away in Maine

We had a lovely week away. We loved the dock, the rope swing, the kayaks and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook all week. We caught some great pike and small mouth bass. The public area could be noisy down the road at times and the neighbors were very close, but overall it was a great house and would recommend to all! I didn't realize in the listing that there was no bathroom on the 2nd floor and the stairs were steep for our kids who had to go in the middle of the night, but there is a light, so it was doable, just FYI. Thank you for a great week!

Bates Graduation

This house was the perfect location to stay for Bates College graduation weekend. The location is close to everything; the setting is perfect; the amenities listed were all at the house. Check-in and Check-out were simple. The request to consolidate garbage in big bags was easy, as there were plenty of the larger size and we were able to put all our garbage in 2 bags. Plenty of parking (we were a family of 8 traveling from different states and easily fit 4 vehicles in the allotted space. I would definitely consider staying here for longer to really experience Sabattus Pond.

Like Staying at a Friend's Place...

With sunrises that can't be ignored, a beautiful lake/pond to play on and plenty of spaces to relax, our time at the Connors camp is now one of our top favorite family vacations. The kitchen is well stocked, more so than most rentals. Things we loved - 3-season porch, plenty of towels, couches and beds were comfortable, fishing on the dock, and watching/hearing the ducks and loons. Pictures and description in listing are accurate. We were fortunate to be there during the super blue moon in August - evening kayak trips watching the moon rise over the water are memories that will not soon be forgotten. The swing out over the water was a favorite past time as well. Thank you for sharing your special spot.

Beautiful view

Downstairs was wonderful, kitchen well stocked and back porch overlooking Sabattus Pond was gorgeous place to sit, even on the rainy days. Ducks took naps on the dock, lots of fun to watch them. Only downside was steep stairs to get to house and to 2nd floor. May have been my bad when reading description. Other thing was no coverings on bedroom windows. No privacy from road and sun was an early wake-up call. That's an easy fix. Enjoyed our stay.
