Amazing vacation!

This place was so welcoming. We had a welcome gift so we could make s’mores. There was a nice sandy beach and the water got deep gradually so it would be a great place for kids. The place was very clean and the beds were comfortable. Our only regret was we couldn’t stay longer!

Host profile image
We are an outdoor family and On The Fly Inn is our favorite place to spend time. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Although we moved away for over 25 years Downeast Maine will always be home. Say hello to the neighbors. We have some great ones. But what we love most is the peace and quiet, surrounding woods and the view of the lake!

What makes this property unique

On The Fly Inn is our favorite place in the world. We love the people, animals, lakes, rivers, woods and ocean of Downeast Maine. We are very grateful to have this beautiful lake house on a private beach and are excited to share with our guests.
