The place was really nice. The only issue was that everyone in our group loves to cook. Unfortunately, the oven would only broil. So baking or roasting anything was impossible. But, we adapted. We would definitely go back. We were a group of 7. There was plenty of room to spread out. We also swam every day.

Thank you so much for the review. We are sincerely sorry about the oven issue during your stay. We regret that you had to deal with that, as it is certainly not the experience we want our guests to have! The oven has since been repaired and is now in proper working order. We hope to host you again in the future for a much better stay! :)

This was my 3rd stay at Windy Cross. I bring clients up here fishing every year, and this is by far our favorite place to stay. The location is great for fishing(even off the dock), views are spectacular, and you can't beat a hottub after a long day of spring fishing. I would highly recommend Windy Cross for staying on Rangeley Lake

Awesome place.

Super convenient for Saddleback, the IGA is 2 minutes away. Despite great accessibility, still felt secluded. Perfect. House was gorgeous, on a very pretty lot. Well stocked and in good shape. Thank you, host and owner! We had high hopes and expectations and couldn't be happier with the week we spent at windy cross.

We had such a lovely visit ! Its a beautiful property with gorgeous views. We loved the fire place and hottub. The property is as described and very clean! Fresh towels and linens provided, even for the hot tub. It's also nice that they have a washer and dryer and the basement is amazing! So much room and more beds and space for the kids to hang out!

Another great stay at Windy Cross!

This house is great - from location to amenities, it's fantastic. Wonderful dock, sunsets, and location close to town. The only thing I would recommend would be to add in stairs to the dock in addition to the ladder - for older folks. Will be back again!

Wonderful Family Vacation Spot!

We had a wonderful stay at Windy Cross with our family of 6 adults and 4 kids! The kids loved the bunk room downstairs, and there was plenty of space for all of the adults. The property was fantastic and the location on the lake was perfect. The sunsets on the lake and the hot tub were great evening additions. Morton & Furbish was extremely responsive anytime we had questions or needed anything and were so easy to work with!
