About this property
Unwind in lakeside luxury; your serene Bear Pond escape awaits.
Imagine stepping into your own cozy retreat on the serene shores of Bear Pond, right here in the heart of Maine's peaceful beauty. As the first-floor apartment in our brand-new two-story home, it's thoughtfully designed to feel like a warm embrace—whether you're a family chasing simple joys or a couple craving quiet moments together. With space for up to six, you'll find two welcoming bedrooms and a versatile family room that doubles as a haven for movie nights, complete with a comfy sofa bed, a big-screen TV, and soft lounge chairs that invite you to sink in and unwind. Wander into the bright sitting room, where wall-to-wall windows frame those breathtaking lake views and let the soft morning sun pour in from the south—it's the perfect spot to sip your coffee, lose yourself in a book, or just watch the world (and maybe a few birds) go by. The open flow leads right into our modern kitchen, stocked with everything to make your stay effortless: a microwave, dishwasher, coffee maker, Instant Pot, electric griddle, toaster, blender, and all the bakeware and cookware you'll need to whip up something special. And the bathroom? It's a little oasis with an in-ceiling Bluetooth speaker for your favorite tunes, a blow dryer, gentle soaps, and stacks of fresh towels—because we want you to feel truly pampered. When the mood strikes, step out to our covered picnic spot on the generous lot, fire up the grill, and gather around the table for lazy al fresco meals with loved ones. You're nestled in a sweet central spot, too—just an easy hour's drive to Portland's charming shops, Freeport's outlet treasures, or the snowy thrills of Sunday River and Black Mountain. Even as the loons head south for winter, Bear Pond's magic lingers in the crisp, clean air, the glassy waters, and all the gentle adventures waiting just beyond your door—hikes, paddles, or starlit evenings under the pines. This place is our heartfelt invitation to slow down, connect, and recharge as a family. We'd love to welcome you home—book today, and make some memories that stay with you long after the last sunset.
