About this property

Lakeside Housekeeping Cottage in Leeds, Maine on Androscoggin Lake

Canada Goose Cottage is one of nine cottages situated on 25 majestic acres with a beach and boat dock. It is located at Angell Cove on Androscoggin Lake in Leeds, Maine. It is a seasonal cottage open from mid-May to mid-October.

The cottage sleeps 6: a private queen bedroom, a loft with twin beds, and a pull-out queen sleeper couch in the greatroom. A full bath with tub/shower and a half bath are on the first floor. A complete kitchen includes a microwave, refrigerator, gas range/oven, and a coffee/tea station. The greatroom has comfortable seating, a propane heater, and a dining table that seats six. The furnished front screen porch overlooking the beach provides great views of the sunsets over Monument Hill and the island where bald eagles nest. In 2021 a 10x12 attached deck was added overlooking the lake.

Built in 1991, the cottage was completely renovated in the spring of 2017. The bedroom and loft were whitewashed and the kitchen cupboards received paint and new countertops. Handpicked furnishings, fittings, and fixtures keep a traditional lakeside Maine cottage feel. The spirit of a family owned camp is evident in the knotty pine, buffalo plaid, soft lighting, and touches of cranberry red. The loft is great for napping, you can hear the loons and owls from the bedroom at night, and the screen porch is a cozy place to curl up, gaze out over the lake, and lose yourself in a good book. The boating, the bass fishing, the woods, the hiking, and the swimming, combined with the loons, bald eagles, and osprey create the perfect summer vacation. If you stay in the summer, you will want to come back in the fall to enjoy campfires on the beach and see the spectacular foliage. We welcome you to share and enjoy our beloved piece of paradise. Hopefully, it will become a yearly tradition for you too!

About the host

Host profile image
Canada Goose Cottage is one of the original cottages built at Angell Cove in Leeds, Maine in 1991. The boating, the bass fishing, the woods, the hiking, and the swimming, combined with the loons, bald eagles, and osprey created the perfect vacation getaway. We chose to stay at Angell Cove for our vacation that inaugural year and have not missed a year since. We enjoyed the swimming and fishing in the summer and came back in the fall on Columbus Day Weekend to see the spectacular foliage. Over the years we made lasting friendships with many summer guests who, like us, returned every year to this lakeside treasure in Maine. Great memories were made as our children and grandchildren grew up together water skiing, swimming, and prowling the hillsides from dawn to dusk.

Why they chose this property

Slowly, the cottages grew in number until nine quaint, lakeside cottages stood on the shore of Androscoggin Lake. Not having a favorite, we took turns staying in all nine cottages on our trips as each one had their own personality and decorating style. As time passed, Angell Cove evolved and the once privately owned cottages gained new identities as condominiums. Family and friends became owners as one-by-one the cottages were sold. This year, the opportunity arose and we purchased Cottage 2 - Canada Goose Cottage. The front porch overlooking the beach, the view of the sunsets over Monument Hill, and the location across from the black sand island where bald eagles nest were just a few factors that convinced us that this was the cottage destined to be ours.

What makes this property unique

As new owners, we made many changes. We renovated the kitchen and added a new full sized bathroom. The bedroom and loft were whitewashed and the kitchen cupboards received a coat of paint and new countertops. Handpicked furnishings, fittings, and fixtures allowed us to put our own stamp on the cottage. However, while doing this, we were always mindful that this was a traditional lakeside Maine cottage and we kept the integrity of that theme at the heart of our remodel. The spirit of a family owned camp is evident in the knotty pine, buffalo plaid, soft lighting, and touches of cranberry red. The loft is still great for napping, you can still hear the loons and owls from the bedroom at night, and the screen porch is still a cozy place to curl up, gaze out over the lake, and lose yourself in a good book. In 2021 we added a 10x12 deck overlooking the lake. We welcome you to share and enjoy our beloved piece of paradise. Hopefully, it will become a yearly tradition for you too!
