About this property
Private w/ waterfront <5 min to Pleasant Mt & town. Dock, pool table, ping-pong
July 23rd Update - last-minute 2026 summer dates - 5 nights remaining! - Sun. Aug 30th - Fri. Sept 4th - 3 night minimum if starting Sun, Mon, or Tue. ......................
Looking for an easy, private getaway with your own waterfront? A place surrounded by trees but around the corner from everything? The vacation cabin feeling with modern amenities that make time away easy and more memorable?
In the summer, jump off the dock, paddle a canoe or kayak, go fishing, or relax with a book by the water on private Beaver Pond. Or use the Moose Pond public boat launch 3 minutes down the road. And it's only a 5 minute ride to the center of Bridgton for a movie or meal anytime of the year.
During the winter, wake up and be at Plesant Mountain ( Shawnee Peak ) for skiing or riding in less than 5 minutes. Go snow-shoeing or cross-country skiing on the snow-covered pond in back or on Moose Pond or the nearby trails. Or hit the snowmobile trails on and around Moose Pond and easily connect to the Maine state-wide trail system.
This newer, comfortable 2 BR, 2BA house with private water frontage on Beaver Pond is nestled in the trees and has the extras that take stress out of getaways: - Newer appliances, including a dishwasher, washer, dryer, full oven, refrigerator with ice maker, and filtered water system - Nighttime, winter, and rainy-day fun for all, with a full-sized pool table, ping pong, air hockey, board games, puzzles and toys - Screened-in porch accessible off the great room for reading or resting outside - High-speed 2-gig fiber interne connection, satellite TV, and 4G mobile phone coverage inside or outside the house

Everything was immaculate... very clean ... hosts were great... ability to reach out to them if any issue.. close enough to towns with a little drive but far enough away for the quiet and relaxing time u want .. looking forward to visiting again
This is dog-friendly contemporary cabin full of thoughtful touches. We enjoyed the pond, wooded property and nearby hikes. I had two curious otters greet me one morning by the dock. They put on quite a show.
We had the best time. The pond was perfect. Quiet, peaceful and the perfect size. The kids loved the kids kayaks and the pool table downstairs. The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to make all our meals there with no issues. We just left and already miss it!
What a beautiful home! We loved the screened porch for early morning coffee surrounded by nature. The ping pong table was a big hit. And talk about a kitchen stocked with every kind of pan, bowl, and utensil available! Wow!. Thank you so much for an amazing stay!! More than all that, my dog was in absolute heaven!
Wonderful property! Great location to Bridgton area and only 30 minutes from North Conway. Very clean and well stocked house. Enjoyed the ping pong table in basement. We appreciated the use of the kayaks too! As noted in another review, it is a bit of a steep incline down a path to the water but once there you are greeted with a lovely sitting area, dock, and floating pad on the water.
The house was perfect for us. Fully stocked with pots and pans. We enjoyed morning on the screened in deck and evenings by the fire. The pond it a bit of a hike there and back. I have a broken toe which made it difficult but not impossible. There are kayaks and a float pad that we had fun with. The kids loved the basement with games, ping pong and pool. There area offers endless activities from water plane rides in Naples to the Cog Railway at Mt Washington. We also did tubing on the Saco River. We had a great time!
We had such a great time here. The house was amazing. We loved the privacy and we couldn’t see any neighbors. My 15 year old and his friends had a great time with the boats and fishing on beaver pond and the games in the basement. We explored the many bigger lakes in the area with our boat to fish. But beaver pond ranked as their top choice for fishing for bass! The pond water was very clean for swimming. The host sent very helpful and detailed information regarding everything a week before. They also answered questions promptly. The beds were comfortable. We have rented a lot of places but this was our favorite.
Amazing property! This lakeside home was the perfect place for a Memorial Day weekend getaway… secluded and lovely outdoors and plenty to do inside when it was rainy! We loved the beautiful decor of the home and everything was well stocked. I would definitely recommend!
The house was Clean and comfortable, everything you needed was in the house. The kitchen was well stock and if you have kids there are plenty of games and thing to do at this house. The fishing was great right off the dock! My wife and I would like to go back and relax here again.
We had a great stay at this cozy and clean house. It had everything we needed, and lots of fun games to play. Great private waterfront location. Son caught a large mouth bass out back off the dock. Close to some great restaurants. Would definitely come back and recommend to others.
We stayed for 6 nights and lived it. The house was just what we needed- the dogs loved the yard and it was close to all the great places that Bridgton and Harrison have to offer. The house was exceptionally clean and John was a great host.
Great second year renting this place, nice and relaxing, great little 4 day vacation after a crazy summer season, got to go into town and wander around, definitely recommend this place, will rent again.
What a wonderful stay, the place is amazing! The access to pleasant mountain was super convenient and the amenities were an added bonus! We loved the peace and quiet along with the homey feel. 10/10 would recommend and look forward to booking again in the future!
This is a clean and cozy cottage with a great pond-side location and lots of amenities, including a dock and watercraft, a firepit, pool table, and well-appointed kitchen.The sound of loons calling at night from the pond was lovely.None of these things presented hurdles, but FYI: The upper bunk bed is only suitable for a smaller person, but with the pull-out couch we were still able to sleep four big guys comfortably. The path to and from the dock is a bit steep and has rocks and roots, so you might want t bring good outdoor footwear.
It is always a wonderful stay with John & Melissa. They are so easy to work with and accommodating. The house is awesome and has everything you need. We will be back again!
This was the perfect long weekend with cozy yet spacious accommodations, great amenities and amazing owner communications and guidance on house operations. We were pleased to find a fully stocked kitchen with all the appliances you may ever need. A bonus was having our own skating rink, the pond skating was divine!
