About this property
LAKE SIDE 4-Season home, 4-bdrm 2-bath, super clean, bright & cozy
Lake Access! Bring your boat or bring your snowmobile! 4-season 4-bedroom 2-full bath private home. Enjoy cooking and eating in the fully modern appliance open concept kitchen/dining area. Linger with family over your morning coffee soaking up the sunshine from a wall of large south facing windows. Family can spread out into the 2 fully furnished living/entertainment areas. Country setting and yet close to restaurants, miniature golf, bowling, dine in movie theater. Locally made ice can be purchased at more than 3 close by ice cream shops. Two of these great ice cream locations offer miniature golf!
Just a 2-minute stroll on the gravel path from the back yard, you will arrive at your private waterfront & private dock. For those of you planning on bringing your own boat, you will be pleased to know that this property is close to the public boat launch for Mousam Lake and that The Grey House dock can accommodate a boat up to 20 feet long.
A 16ft Pontoon boat is available for rent with this property. This pontoon boat may be rented by the day or by the half day. Speak with owner or host for details.
Some of you may decide to take a day trip to historic Portland Maine or Portsmouth New Hampshire. Make a shopping day trip to beautiful North Conway New Hampshire and visit the outlet malls or check out famous Old Orchard Beach. Plan an ocean beach day and enjoy the sandy beaches of Kennebunk and Wells, less than an hour away.
In the back yard, of this newly renovated rental, you and your family can enjoy a brand-new covered patio and Solo "fire pit", conveniently located outside the kitchen door. Prepare your homemade breakfasts, lunches or Suppers, on the well-maintained Black Stone griddle, while enjoying a game of Corn Hole or one of the other outside family games provided.
The owner of this property has provided one "Old Town" canoe and adult size life vests for visiting guests 15 years old and up, For the added enjoyment of age-appropriate guests staying at this lake side home, the owner allows free use of 2 paddle boards and 2 kayaks. For the additional safety of our guests, the owner has purchased several children and adult sized life jackets. It is strongly recommended that life jackets be worn for all water sports activities.
Many of our guests enjoy the local walking trails in close proximity to this rental, that allow for some fresh air and exercise without a strenuous hike.
An added amenity for the summer of 2025, is a 4-person sunset boat ride of the picturesque Mousam Lake, ( if more than 4 guests are interested in taking advantage of this offer, 2 nights can be chosen), on an evening of the guest's choice, weather permitting.
The host and the owner are easily reached and will promptly reply to any questions, needs or concerns during your stay

About the host
Hosted by Linda Lawrence
This circa 1925 home has been in the same family until this present day. It has witnessed happy days and tragic days as it sheltered 3 generations of children. This home has just experienced its 4th renovation. The property's host and her brother the owner are third-generation children. They have loving endeavored to modernize this home, yet still be focused on keeping its original personal integrity. Throughout the home you may notice little hints of the nostalgic past.
Why they chose this property
Although we are not done with all the changes, we are in the process of making to this property, the home is now very comfortable, and we invite you to bring your family for a relaxing visit to the cool environment of Mousam Lake. We hope to add and deck, redo the outside painting of the house, and set up a place for outside activities such as a patio with firepit and a summer reading room with beverage cooler. We will be working on these projects in between the visits of our guests.
What makes this property unique
Each room has been set up with attention to detail. You can bring a large group of family or friends and still have privacy. We decided not to fill bedrooms with cots and bunk beds because we felt privacy and space was important for a truly relaxing respite. This is especially true in the case of inclement weather. Unfortunately, not every day in Maine is warm and sunny or producing fluffy snow. Our guests need to be able to go their separate ways with a good book or to watch a movie without the noise of a large crowd. This property is in close proximity to the main roads for when one desires to pick up "take out", decides to visit a nearby eatery, or catch a movie in the nearby town of Sanford.
