Lakefront cottage, deep water, now booking Summer 2025

Situated immediately on the shore of Megunticook Lake, the largest freshwater body in the mid-coast region, “Babb Camp" enjoys spectacular views of the Camden Hills and the nature preserve, Fernald's Neck.

The camp is only 3 miles from the charms of the ocean-front town of Camden, with its many wonderful restaurants and shops, as well as a variety of opportunities to experience Penobscot Bay.

Located well-off the main road down a private road along a gently sloping wooded 2 acre lot, all the residents along this side of the lake are multi-generational owners and should you choose to stay here, you will have access to a very special section of the lake.

An American Bald Eagle is resident on the property most days and the loons can be seen swimming and heard calling at any hour day or night. Angler's can fish right off the dock or in the many coves nearby.

The Camp:

The building is an authentic example of a shingle style, traditional, rustic, Maine lakeside cabin. It has 5 bedrooms upstairs, and generous living and dining area downstairs, a large kitchen, and a large, wraparound porch. In keeping with the era, there are exposed posts and beams, original glass windows, and an original Ben Franklin wood stove. The furniture includes LLBean Lodge leather sofa and chairs, and an imported farmhouse table. There is a 42 in flatscreen TV with internet connectivity, and comfortable Amish-built Adirondack chairs on the porch. The dock is positioned to receive all day sun and is surrounded by deep, fresh water, perfect for swimming and boating.

Babb Camp getaway

Another magical stay at Babb Camp with family. Weather was not ideal but did not matter. We love the setting and the lake is so much fun. So much to do even in cloudy weather - hikes for all levels, trips to town, canoeing and kayaking. We will be back!!!

Magical lake camp

Rustic, charming and wonderful experience on the lake. Jim and Jennifer are great to deal with and the "Babb Camp" is everything you'd want in a back to basics lake front experience. We had a tremendous time and would definitely go back!

Porch for days

A charming old camp on a wonderful lake. The porch is a slice of heaven. The main living space is spacious and cozy, with lots of areas to tuck in, read a book, do a puzzle, and comfortably gather. The kitchen was well stocked. Communication with the owners was easy and super friendly! The second floor had lots of sleeping options and great lake views, but not every room is totally private as you have to walk through at least one. And some of the walls don't go to the ceiling, so it's quite rustic. Just good to know. We had a wonderful stay!

Quintessential Maine

Such a wonderful 2 weeks. Listening to the loons, waking up to a magnificent view, sitting on the porch, deep water off the dock, kayaking to jumpers rock, fishing in the canoe, enjoying dinners on the harbor, hiking surrounding mountains and soaking in family time. We didn’t want our vacation to end! Huge thank you to Jennifer for being such a great host!

That Dock...WOW!

We had such a wonderful time at Babb Camp. We cherished our sunny September stay out on that amazing dock with Adirondack Chairs. Coffee in the morning and WOW those stars at night! Lake Megunticook is crystal clear and kayaking was such a joy. The American Bald Eagle visits were a highlight, and sleeping in that room with all those windows, magical. We would highly recommend this beautiful old-world camp to those looking for rest and relaxation with family and friends. M & J

Loved Babb Camp!

We thoroughly enjoyed this charming lake house with beautiful views. Lake Megunticook water is crystal clear and clean with dramatic shorelines. Perfect for swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and SUP. We relaxed on the dock at sunrise and sunset and loved playing cards and eating family meals on the front porch. The house had everything we needed and the hosts were very responsive. Would happily stay at Babb Camp again!

Idyllic Maine Lakefront Camp

We have been spending time on Lake Megunticook for the better part of the last decade and it is always a wonderful experience. This may be my favorite spot to date. The camp has the rustic feel of a lakefront camp from a bygone era; flip flops and bathing suit are all that are required. You could not be closer to the lake. We had the pleasure of getting to know the bald eagle that visited each morning and “jumper’s rock” was a simple swim across the lake from the camp’s dock. An absolute delight!

View from the deck cannot be beat

This was our first time renting the Camp but will not be our last. It was our daughter’s first trip to Maine and definitively a memorable one. The view of the mountains and Fernald’s Neck from the house cannot be beat. The weather was variable but the covered deck was perfect as we were able to sit outside during the rain. We saw the resident bald eagle twice from the dock. The bedroom with the king bed and the sunroom were our favorite rooms in the house. Cannot wait for next summer. The hosts were very responsive leading up to our stay and were so willing to answer the many many questions I had. Thank you!

Stay at Babb Camp

My wife and I had an absolutely wonderful time at Babb camp. It's a perfect rustic cabin that still provides all the needed amenities. The lake itself is incredible, and the house provides so many great spots to relax and enjoy the views. James and Jennifer were excellent hosts. We had a few small hiccups during our stay and they were incredibly responsive and immediately sprung into action. I would note to future travelers that this property isn't totally secluded. There are neighbors, which wasn't immediately clear from the photos. This wasn't an issue for us though, everyone around is very friendly. We'd definitely come back and enjoy another stay at Babb Camp!

Fabulous stay!

We had a wonderful stay - the house is quintessential Maine camp and oh so relaxing. You can feel the memories that have been built here and it's lovely. We read on the porch, played cards, watched baby birds being fed by their parents, jumped off the wonderful dock into the deep water and were able to dock our boat. The lake is really beautiful with clean, deep water and fun to explore. Jim & Jennifer were always quick with a reply or suggestion. The master bedroom with all it's windows and views of the lake was heartwarming to wake up in, hearing the loons in the night. The neighbors showed us how they feed an eagle and were so friendly. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for sharing your home! Two things of note, not criticism - the fridge is very small and though they have a ancillary dorm fridge, it was still a tight fit for us. We like to purchase all our groceries for the week for our family so we don't have to leave camp and it just wasn't enough space for us. Second, yes, the neighbors have a large group of friends and family and you could hear them talking and laughing but they weren't being obnoxious or overly loud and they are very friendly.

Beautiful view, classic Maine summer cottage

We stayed for over a week and enjoyed every day of it, rain or shine. This camp is the quintessential classic/rustic Maine cottage. There are no bells and whistles so if you are looking for updated amenities, and renovations, this is not your place. If you're looking for an authentic Maine lake cottage experience, this is your spot! It is kept in it's natural state (and well cared for)-a lovely, old, classic summer cottage-a rare find these days! We had guests come stay with our family throughout the week, and everyone was able to sleep comfortably-the house holds quite a few people, well. It can truly sleep 9-10 people comfortably. The house really had everything we needed and the owners were very responsive to any questions we had. We spent a lot of time on the very nice dock with gorgeous views of the lake and surrounding mountains. Listening to loons and enjoying the bald eagle that came to the tree next to the house, every day, were our favorite things to do from the gorgeous wrap around porch! There is some boat traffic that comes through that area of the lake, and one house next door that has a bit of people traffic, but nothing that effected us too much. The tranquility of the house, and the lake is unlike most places we've been. We would highly recommend Babb Cottage!

Our favorite family vacation rental property ever!

This property was just awesome for our multi-generation family vacation! In fact, we get together every year, and this is our favorite family vacation rental property ever! The "Babb Camp" dates back to the 1880's, and the antiquity and simplicity of the place, combined with the panoramic views of the Camden Hills, Fernald's Neck, and Lake Megunticook, make it feel timeless, completely relaxing, even kind of spiritual. We read on the dock, swam, kayaked, relaxed and visited on the porch. We visited Camden a few times, which offers a whole different experience, with the harbor, opportunities to get on the ocean, and great shops and restaurants. A great, great vacation!

Fantastic Family Vacation

We just came back from the most amazing week at this camp. Nobody wanted to leave!! The house was perfect for our large family and after active days swimming and hiking, we were able to spend time enjoying meals at the farmers table or playing board games in the living room. The porch is as beautiful as it appears in the photos; you can relax and read a book or just sit and look at the water and mountains while listening to the loons call. The dock was ideal for swimming, canoeing, paddle boarding and fishing. We really didn't have to ever leave the camp but when we did, everything was only a short distance away- hiking, dining, rock climbing, farmers market, shopping, groceries etc. What a great spot. We feel so fortunate to have found it.

Family vacation 2015

Fabulous old school antique camp style home from 1890. Capacity for 10 even on the porch and dining area. Best views of lake Megunticook with Maiden cliffs and Mt. Megunticook in the back ground. The dock makes access to your watercrafts a breeze. A bald eagle even roosts right near the camp almost every day. Close to great hiking, shopping in Camden if you need too, but best to relax and enjoy this wonderful spot.

The cottage has been in the same family continuously.

Por qué eligió esta propiedad

This is one of the first cottages built on Megunticook Lake in the late 1800's by the Babb Family, with 180 degree views of the lake, the Fernald's Neck nature preserve, Maiden Cliff, and the Camden Hills. It has undergone many renovations and updates since then, but still retains the authentic air and charm of a classic Maine lake cottage. The cottage was featured in Conde Nast's Bon Appetit magazine (August 2016 edition).

Qué distingue a esta propiedad

Positioned to have exceptional views of Megunticook Lake and the Camden Hills; excellent boating and deep water swimming off dock.
