Quiet - Romantic - Secluded Cottage on Lake

Dramatically set on the side of a mountain, overlooking a sparkling clean, spring-fed 12-acre lake, our cottage is perfect for honeymooners or nature lovers-- or anyone who appreciates peace and quiet. It's tucked away down a private road-- secluded, quiet and private, surrounded by the beauty of Maine's woods. There's a horse stable on our road with beautiful horses including miniatures.

The cottage features a high deck facing our 200 feet of natural lake frontage with dock and canoe. In the dappled sunlight or under a star-blasted night sky, it’s utterly private, on 3 wooded acres.

Please note: We rent only to (non-smoking) adults. And since the bedroom is up a flight of stairs, our cottage is not suitable for handicapped individuals.

The 2005-built cottage has mahogany flooring, knotty pine paneling, and big windows with pretty views. The sunny living room has comfortable, furniture and a cozy dining area next to a cast iron heat stove (ceramic log, propane fireplace).

Due to changes in climate, I've added a heat pump with air conditioning and heating. Summers in Maine have become warmer and even sometimes humid, so air conditioning is important for a good night's rest.

Upstairs, a romantic "loft" bedroom overlooks the living room and has a custom-made, queen-size platform bed with a firm mattress with added memory foam topper. All bedding is supplied. Windows upstairs offer a view of the lake and treetops.

There's a small, quiet room at the back of the house with a futon couch/bed.

The big bathroom features a washer/dryer, a walk-in shower and a large, custom made, pine cabinet, inset with a Mexican ceramic sink and with roomy drawers for towel and extra blanket storage. Towels are supplied. Good, fresh water comes from a deep, private well and a water filter pitcher is also supplied.

In the compact kitchen are new appliances including a microwave and smooth-top range. (No dishwasher besides yourself.) Good lighting with an extra LED light over the stove. Quality cookware, knives, dishes, glassware-- fully equipped except for your groceries.

There’s a CD/radio/cassette player, a 13" TV (satellite dish connection) and DVD player with a several DVDs on hand. There’s satellite internet, and very good cell phone reception. Books, maps and brochures are supplied.

The canoe at our dock is equipped with life jackets and paddles, and the water is very clean for swimming and good for fishing-- mainly bass and pickerel.

Several more photos available on request-- interior, exterior, lake view panorama, etc...

Secluded is the best part!

My husband and I came here for our honeymoon. We enjoyed the seclusion of the property and the immediate access to the pond. My husband enjoyed using the property's canoe to fish and I loved the wake-free water for paddleboarding. We were close enough to the coast to make day trips. Great location!

Nice small house on a quiet pond

House was exactly as described. Very clean and nicely decorated. Kitchen well stocked. Great for a relaxing getaway and home base to explore other towns. Only recommendation would be some maintenance on path to pond.

House was great! Really enjoyed out stay, Wonderful layout of place- small, but doesn't feel small. Only downside was the drive in on the dirt road - not grated yet, so it had many large potholes. Luckily not a problem for out vehicle.

Getaway from it all

The place had everything we needed, was comfortable bright and clean. Surrounded by trees and plenty of sun or shade as preferred. The canoe was easy to get to and launch. The natural stone walk down to the pond was energizing. The fish were definitely jumping. Mid week very quiet and private. Weekend pretty much the same.

Not exactly ON a lake

The way down needs more accommodation. My husband made it down once with difficulty. I made it half way once. We spent the week on the deck looking at the lake. The cottage was beautiful, and better provisioned than any previous rental, but we came for the lake. Never even inflated our tubes.

Beautiful oasis

Ginger’s place is even sweeter than it looks in the pictures. The setting is idyllic and the house is set up with guests in mind with a well stocked kitchen and even shelving to store your own food and equipment in the kitchen and toiletries in the bathroom. The way to the lake is a tiny bit of a climb but anything more structured than the few stepping stones here and there would ruin its charm. There are only a few other residents around the lake but there was some construction going on directly across the lake starting on Thursday of our stay: sawing and nail guns etc which broke up the serenity. Hopefully their construction will end soon. It is a beautiful and otherwise peaceful place!

Peaceful

Clean, well equipped, cozy and quiet. Location was perfect for us to simply relax, read, cook. Kayaked much at Three Mile Pond, played a round of golf at Western View. Both 15 minutes away. Maine Cabin Masters was our draw. The coast is not far but chose to stick close and enjoy the cottage.

Great vacation spot.

We had a great time. The cabin was exactly as advertised. Secluded and quiet. Enjoyed our evening campfires, but watch out for the moose, hahah. Fishing was excellent, but watch out for the giant turtle. Excellent weather. Enjoyed every bit of our time there.

Charm and Solitude

If you are looking for a place to enjoy peace and solitude but without "roughing it", then this is your place. The serenity of the lake and canoe, the peaceful mornings on the back deck hearing nary a sound except that provided by birds and water fowl was just the tonic this tired workaholic needed to refresh and recharge. Within an hour is everything you could hope to see in Maine. Hiking trails with amazing views were plentiful and we thoroughly enjoyed the coast, especially the quaint and uncrowded scenes of Rockport and Camden where we found the locals so friendly and the food out of this world. We also headed up north on Hwy 201 toward Jackman - moose country - where we saw spectacular views and wildlife in abundance. We also found nearby Augusta to have more charm and things to do than any review hinted at. Only downside was the time of year we were here - end of June - was peak tourism season, so popular destinations such as Bar Harbor and Acadia National were jam-packed. We avoided those areas as a result and have no regrets, but if this is what you desire to see and experience, choose your dates carefully. Ginger is a gracious hostess and everything you could want is right there. We will definitely be back again to enjoy this beautiful setting.

very private and enjoyable

I was there in late July for 2 weeks. Very private lake ( only three properties ) and a very well-maintained and modern cottage ( house ). Only negatives were a poorly maintained access road and barking dogs. Loved the caretaker and her daughter. Good people.

Acerca del anfitrión

Foto de perfil del anfitrión
I'm Ginger, a retired commercial artist, born in Maine, but raised in Virginia. I love beauty, nature, and simple pleasures. In this photo, I've just bought fresh blueberries in the nearby town of Union.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

Maine is Heaven on Earth to me and I always yearned for a cottage there. This one was an unfinished summer home on 3 wild acres, bordering on a quiet lake-- my dream come true! I worked with a contractor, designing it every inch and I love it so much. It gives me great pleasure to share it with folks who feel about Maine the way I do.

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

At my cottage, you're immersed in nature-- surrounded by woods and busy wildlife. My favorite spot is leaning on the deck railing, gazing through the trees to the lake, watching for birds and chipmunks. We've had a groundhog living under a tree near the deck; we regularly see wild turkeys and deer. I've even seen a porcupine waddling down our road. Yesterday while canoeing around the lake, we startled a MOOSE on the opposite bank. And once, a giant heron stood on our dock and then came right up to our driveway.

Our cottage is uniquely private. You could go skinny-dipping, if you wanted.
Augusta is just 10 minutes away, with it's shopping centers and restaurants, but I like the local, Hussey's General Store better. A day at the pretty coast is always a possibility, --for Pemaquid Point lighthouse, local crafts, old books and antiques, and a classic lobster dinner overlooking the ocean at sunset.
