Om boendet

Bokning för 2019 Lakefront, privat, hundvÀnlig, kanot och nu 2 kajaker

Waterfront stuga pÄ Sand Pond i den vackra vÀstra Maine bergen, rustikt men nyligen moderniserat, fullt möblerat kök, handdukar och sÀngklÀder tillhandahÄlls. Mysigt och vÀlkomnande. Ett steg upp till stuga, badrum och sovrum pÄ första vÄningen, mild lutning och nÄgra trappsteg till sjön och bryggan gör det möjligt för Àldre gÀster eller personer med begrÀnsad rörlighet. Den Àr liten (756 kvadratmeter) men sover 3-6 vuxna bekvÀmt. Katedralen taket och nya Hunter takflÀkt i vardagsrummet gör det kÀnns rymligt och luftigt. SkÀrmad i veranda och nedre sovrummet har takflÀktar; 2 sovrum pÄ övervÄningen och alla har en golvflÀkt och tvÀrventilation. Det hÀr Àr tyst (med undantag av snöskottsÀsongen) vinterlÀger med en grund (genomsnittlig djup 13 fot, 23 fot vid dess djupaste punkt), varm sanddamm, 40-brygga med oktagon, över en dödlig grusvÀg (och snöskoter spÄr, roligt för mountainbike och vandring), sÄ det kanske inte Àr lÀmpligt för smÄbarn som andra lÀger bosatta anvÀnder vÀgen. Statlig certifierad som Smart House i augusti 2009, anvÀndning av miljövÀnliga produkter som krÀvs. Generator installerad 2012. Firepit och kolgrill ligger precis vid vattnet, över grusvÀgen frÄn stugan. Gasgrill tillagd i maj 2017.

BOATING OCH FISHING: dammen Àr kÀnd för att vara full av stora munnen bas och vit och gul abborre och loons serenade varje sommarkvÀll. 2-kanot kanot, 4-personers pedalbÄt, 2 nya kajaker, 7 livvÀstar. Inga stora motorbÄtar finns pÄ dammen, men gÀsterna Àr vÀlkomna att ta med kajak, roddbÄt eller kanot.

ÅTGÄRDER PÅ CAMP:
Detta Àr ett mycket landsbygdsomrÄde, inte för dem som vill ha konstant underhÄllning, men bra för att lÀsa pÄ verandan (helt skÀrmad in under april 2009, bara första tvÄ bilder reflekterar detta) med utsikt över dammen eller pÄ den stora Ättkantiga dockan eller sitter i framför vedskaminen. Det finns ocksÄ en propanvÀrmare för de kallare mÄnaderna (Äret runt, isolerad stuga). Luftkonditioneringsapparat tillgÀngligt för vardagsrum, som anvÀnds en gÄng i 2013, brinner frÄn dammen brukar hÄlla det bekvÀmt.
Brandplats och picknickbord vid vattnet. Mest populÀra aktiviteter: lyssna pÄ lönen, solnedgÄngen, simning, bÄtliv och vandring, bÀrplockning, kyla i en veranda gungstol, hummergrillning, samla med vÀnner runt eldstaden efter solnedgÄngen, brÀdspel. Land telefon i stuga. Mobiltelefon mottagning Àr bra pÄ verandan, Ätminstone för Verizon och Maine Cellular abonnenter: Iffy mottagning för ATT, TMobile, Sprint. HDTV satellit / höghastighetsinternet / WiFi; TV-mottagning kan inte garanteras under grumligt vÀder.

Saker att njuta av i nÀrheten:
Du kan snabbt hitta smÄstaden 10 miles away i Farmington och vid University of Maine, shopping, en biograf och bowlinghall för regniga dagar. sommar konserter och sommar teater i nÀrheten, ett par intressanta restauranger, tvÄ oberoende bokhandlare, en glass stÀllning, antikaffÀrer i nÀrliggande stÀder och en sommar bondens marknad. 15 minuter att vÀlja jordgubbar och blÄbÀr i sÀsong och köpa nyfÄngad hummer. En halvtimme till Mt. Blue State Park, 45 minuter norr till sceniska Rangeley med strÄlande höstlövverk och dramatisk bergsutsikt (och du kan se Àlg), skidÄkning lokalt pÄ Titcomb Mountain och det Àr lika lÄngt frÄn Saddleback, Sugarloaf och Sunday River. Sand Pond Àr ca 3 1/2 timmar frÄn Boston och 90- + 20 minuter frÄn kusten.

PRIVAT MEN INTE "AV GRID":
Medan du inte kan se ett angrÀnsande lÀger förstÀrks ljudet över vatten, sÄ om nÄgon i nÀrheten sÀtter 20 personer runt sin eldkÀlla och har en fest, kommer du att höra det. Detta hÀnder inte ofta, det Àr inte ett frat party omrÄde, mestadels sjÀlvÀgda, men kan inte garanteras absolut tyst. Det hÀr Àr inte det sista lÀgret pÄ den hÀr dead end-vÀgen: 7 grannar lÀngre ner pÄ vÀgen anvÀnder den, sÄ bilar, lastbilar, ATV, cyklar, mÀnniskor som gÄr eller kör med sina hundar kommer precis framför stugan.

Myself, 2 friends and my dog niece stayed for a long weekend in late October. It was just what we needed and the cabin was perfect. Definitely would love to go back when the loons are still in the area and the lake a little warmer but you have to live fall in New England!

Refresh vacation

We enjoyed our stay and being able to enjoy nature and decompressing from the busy every day routine.. The cottage was nuce and we enjoyed the screened in porch and watching the lake and sunset. Beds were very comfortable. Loons were great and came close to be able to really see them. Fishing was good we did catch some Bass. Restaraunts were good but a distance to get to. Great place to relax and get away. Was a little.too cool to seim but woukd have enjoyed that water was clear but you may want water shoes. Nice vacation spot. Owner was great and anytbing we needed we just reached out to property manager who was one road over. Everyone there was friendly but overall you felt like you had the place to yourslef.

Peaceful Cabin on a Pond

Owner very friendly, stayed in communication with me right up until arrival. Check in went smoothly. Beautiful view of pond at dock. Kayaks, Canoe, and pedal boat added to the kids great time at the cabin. Fished for 4 days. Mouse droppings on kitchen counter every morning. Lost a loaf of bread on Day 1. Bought new loaf and just stored it in microwave. Didn't notice them anywhere else. Washer and dryer made it very convenient with being on the water every day. Thank you Carol for sharing your cabin with us.

Peace and quiet in rural Maine.

I grew up near this area, so I was familiar with the area and what this part of Maine has to offer. I chose this property for my out-of-state family’s visit because of the water access and the quiet, wooded nature of the surrounding. My family had a quiet, enjoyable stay. We were all surprised at some of the modern features that you don’t find at a “camp” on a small pond. The dish washer was an unexpected plus and the large capacity washer and dryer were very handy. If I had advice for people looking at this listing who are addicted to their electronic devices, rural Maine is not up to speed with the rest of the country. There is WiFi available at this camp, but data speed is very slow and it was prone to periodic disruptions. I highly recommend this listing for people who want to disconnect from the electronic world and just enjoy the nature.

Peaceful retreat!

Pinehurst Too is everything I was hoping. It brought back wonderful memories of a camp my family stayed at few summers growing. The location is perfect! Other cottages near by but I felt secluded. Walk in and felt right at home. Cottage is clean and had more amenities than I had expected (pots,pans, bowls misc spices, etc. The view of the pond is spectacular. Spent a good deal of the time on the screened in porch. (Favorite spot in the cottage.) one early morning I had the opportunity to use one of the kayaks and had the whole pond to myself. I am grateful for this wonderful experience, it was just what I needed and wished I could have stayed longer. I would go back in a heart beat. Carol was great to communicate with. She answer all my questions and concerns in a very timely manner. Thank you,

Nice getaway

We were looking for a relaxing place on a pond where we could stay with our dog. This place was very nice with a combination of rustic -classic Maine camp with many modern amenities. I had email correspondence with the owner Carol who was very pleasant and helpful. We were able to do some fishing and the clear water kept our dog entertained with the fish swimming by the dock. We used the canoe but came with our own kayaks, so we didn't use the two available kayaks or paddleboat. It was very quiet when we were there and it was a very nice stay and getaway. We were self-contained with our food so we didn't need to leave to go out to eat but maybe next time. I really enjoy this area and we hope to come back for another visit..maybe for a week next time. Love the screened-in porch during bug season. Great spot to chill near the water. I'd go back and it couldn't be too soon. Thanks, Carol. I appreciate you sharing your cottage with us. Nothing like time on and around water.

Pinehurst Too....Relaxing, private well appointed cottage right on beautiful Sand Pond

We had such a relaxing, wonderful stay at Pinehurst Too with our pups! Carol couldn't have made the check in process and information an easier! Right down to sending detailed directions on how to get there... especially on Maine camp roads when the gps isn't always spot on;) My husband was beyond ecstatic about those! We arrived with no issues and we're excited right away when we saw the larger than expected, screened-in porch with an amazing view of the pond. We loved that the porch included both rocking chairs & table & chairs where we ate breakfast, lunch & dinner watchimg the loons & ducks pass by. Our dogs really loved the freedom of walking in and out of the cabin out to the airy porch & they could see the pond. The cabin had everything you could possibly need while on vacation! Well stocked kitchen, dishwasher, toaster oven, you name it, it's there! Even kitchen staples, if you forgot it, most likely, Carol thought of it! Rooms were nicely decorated and had ceiling fans to keep the cabin nice & cool. The dock and waterfront were perfect for fishing for bass and taking the dogs for a swim! The paddle boat, kayaks and canoe were easily accessible and right there on the water. I was looking so forward to the paddle boat and it didn't disappoint;) We ended up bringing our own kayaks for fishing but forgot our paddles, thankfully those were included right at Pinehurst Too... The bass fishing was great, my husband is a much early riser than me and enjoyed fishing off the dock every morning with pretty good luck lots of good size fish, all catch & release. We also had a family of ducks in the cove every morning & evening as well as a few loons. At night you can see the stars so vividly from the dock and the fireplace is perfectly located on the hill just overlooking the pond. Many nights we heard the loons sereneding from Sand Pond & neighboring Locke Pond. We couldn't have hoped for a better vacation, the cottage was perfect, lots of privacy, quiet pond that isn't busy and camps are spread out. Great place to spend time with family and pups, would highly recommend Carol's place for a great get away!! Thanks again for everything Carol, we had a fabulous time and really enjoyed our time at Pinehurst Too!!! Heather, Scott, Koda & Kami

Relaxing lake house

The location is great, located close to Farmington Maine. We were able to get live lobsters and clams at Moshers not to far away as well as a Walmart and grocery store near by. The home is camp like, comfortable & well equipped with what we needed. Mike the contact person was attentive and helpful with any needs. Mike even directed us to come watch his fire work display that he orchestrated & was great. We were able to bring our dogs here which was a nice addition. The lake was warm and we loved watching the loons & baby. One couple walking one day offered us a lot of education on the loons. We had access to 2 kayaks, 1 canoe, and a peddle boat which was a nice addition. Carolyn Anderson the host was good at communicating with us and made an extended effort to get us directions to the camp because 48 hours before our stay a storm washed out a few roads that we needed to avoid. The only word of advice and this was no reflection on the home or owner is don’t count on cell or internet being reliable. Due to recent storms internet was unavailable. Carolyn made an effort to resolve this for us but due to a holiday week was not successful. We had 2 people that were intending on working remotely. 1 person was able to adjust but a 2nd guest had to come late and leave early due to this unfortunate circumstance. Carolyn did offer us a hot spot which was appreciated. I would 100 % recommend this location for a relaxing step away from hustle and bustle of life. Perfect family trip!

Quiet camping getaway

Overall the house was very cute and has everything you need during your stay. It is very much so in a rural place so if you are looking for a quiet private place this is it! There is a small downtown area about 20 minutes away in Farmington and it was fabulous! So many cute shops and amazing restaurants we made a whole day of it one day during the week. The owner was very responsive and made sure we were accommodated and clearly stated the policies and house rules so we never felt misguided. There were boats and a nice dock for us to use and we even saw loons! We went during a very hot week so there were quite a few bugs but that's what camping gets you. In all, if you are looking for a nice camping house with water activities and a cute small town atmosphere this is the place to go!

Om vÀrden

Carol Anderson owner Àr vÀrd

VĂ€rdens profilbild
I'm a quasi-retired university administrator and ESL teacher in NJ; theatergoer in New York City but need peace and quiet to balance that life. My great-grandfather bought a lakefront cottage in western Maine in the 1890s and I spent part of every summer of my childhood falling in love with this part of Maine and learning why generations of my family, mostly born in Jersey City, kept coming back to this very special place. Of course I brought my daughter here as a child to make sure she fell in love with it too! I like that my guests really enjoy this getaway and appreciate the unusually well equipped kitchen, the boats, and the hammock.

Varför vÀrden valde detta boende

Sand Pond is 10 miles from a university town with some intellectual life, two good bookstores, a few good places to eat including a memorable ice-cream stand, a fresh-from-the-ocean lobster store, shopping for all the essentials, but not a mall in sight. It's too small for big noisy boats. There are only 30-odd camps on the pond and a similar number on Locke Pond right behind it off the same private road. I like the curvy country roads (in summer anyway), the mountain vistas driving anywhere, the warm shallow pond for swimming, the fact that I can't see or hear a neighbor but know several friendly folks are a phone call or a 2-minute drive away.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

Compared to the last rental I took before buying, where a neighboring camp sounded like a remake of Animal House every weekend, this place is pristine and quiet. Loons serenade their partners every night and in 2022, a pair of owls. I like being able to build a fire in the wood stove, cook for my friends, sit on the porch with a glass of wine and a book, or on the dock with one hand in the pond. Guests comment on the exceptionally well furnished kitchen. You can boat around the pond and never see another human, or wave to children on a floating dock. Most of these cottages have not been gentrified or razed and replaced by McMansions, so it feels like a step back to a saner time and simpler pleasures--board games, jigsaw puzzles provided. If this scene makes you smile like it does me, you'll enjoy a stay here.
