About this house rental

Welcome to this stunning lake house on a pristine lake close to the Maine Lake Region and the city of Portland. This is a high end, well-stocked property with two buildings - the main house and a separate guest house.

This location is perfect for a special family vacation from where you can explore many different attractions in Maine - from the coast to the mountains to the city. This is also a perfect spot for families visiting colleges, including Bates (10 minutes), Bowdoin (45 minutes) and Colby (1 hour). All 4 seasons are spectacular. For young families looking for a learn-to-ski vacation, Lost Valley Ski Resort is 5 minutes away. Sunday River and Sugarloaf are also accessible for the more serious skiers.
In the main house, there's a first floor master suite with huge walk-in closet, and it's own patio through sliding doors overlooking the lake. This room has a King size bed with Dream Cloud mattress and plenty of room for a blow up mattress or travel cot. On the second floor are two large bedrooms, both with Queen size beds and Green Tea Memory Foam Mattresses. There is also a lovely bathroom on the second floor, with large walk in shower. The massive media room is on the second floor with a pull out Full Size sofa bed as part of the sectional sofa. This room contains a very large projector screen for those fun movie nights, and is equipped with Apple TV.
Back on the first floor you will be wowed by the vaulted living room and massive stone fireplace, open dining room and gourmet level kitchen, with granite countertops, Viking stove, Bosch dishwasher and SubZero refrigerator. The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans, and all items you need for a comfortable stay. There is a den off the kitchen with Queen size pullout sofa and flat screen TV, and a private office, powder room and laundry room with washer/dryer.
The separate guest house contains a studio apartment on the second floor with King size Bed and Dream Cloud mattress, Queen size pull out sofa, and lots of extra space for air mattresses if needed. The guest house contains its own modern bathroom with walk-in shower.

Great property that is very well appointed for a summer rental.

This is a gorgeous, clean, well-stocked home on a beautiful piece of land. It provides a great combination of indoor and outdoor activities, including a place to just relax. We had three generations from 5 years old to 72 years old and we all loved the vacation: playing games in the yard, going on the lake in the kayaks, paddleboard, and tubes, watching the world cup games on the huge screen in the media room, sitting by the firepit at night, relaxing on the patio and dock just looking at the lake, and spending quality time with my husband, my children, and my grandchildren. No one wanted to leave the day we had to check out. We can't wait to come back.

We stayed at this beautiful home for a week-long family vacation (6 adults, 5 kids) and it exceeded expectations on every front. The house itself was thoughtfully designed and immaculately kept, with plenty of space for our whole crew to spread out comfortably.The kitchen deserves special mention — it was one of the best-equipped kitchens we’ve encountered in a rental, with a fully stocked spice cabinet, basic pantry staples, and appliances we didn’t expect to find (rice cooker, espresso machine included). For a group that likes to cook, this made a real difference.The lakefront setting was the highlight for the kids and adults alike. We had bonfires and made s’mores a couple of nights, and the kayaks provided by the host got daily use. It’s the kind of property that makes a group trip actually relaxing instead of logistically stressful.Highly recommend for families or multi-family groups looking for a well-equipped, beautiful lake house. We’d book again without hesitation. Thank you!
