Lake Front House ~ Fire pit ~ Canoes/Kayaks ~ Large Deck ~Grill - Secluded Beach

NON SMOKING-Beautiful lake front property that has been in our family for 4 generations. The house has a large great room with a TV and a picture window over looking the lake. 3 bedrooms and a kitchen that is fully stocked. Large deck for grilling and enjoying the views. Fire pit down by the lake. 2 Canoes and 3 kayaks (1 is a double) for exploring the lake. Perfect slow grade slope at the beach edge for small children. Perfect home for a family vacation, reunion or fun with friends. We are 2 minutes to the golf course, public boat launch and the famous Lakewood theater. Even thou your time at the camp is secluded and peaceful, you are only 5-10 min drive from Dunkin dounuts, Walmart and Hanna-fords. Many great towns, hikes and lakes to visit. We are about 2 hrs from Bar Harbor so a great day trip option. Make sure to check out The Bankery Bakery in the town of Skowhegan for fresh pastries!! We hope you chose us for your next vacation for you are sure to enjoy your time!!NO EVENTS OR PARTIES! Pets require an additional $100.00 per stay per dog and you must let me know about any animals

Beautiful spot on the lake! Extremely roomy, tidy and well stocked. Very close to the wedding venue my son got married at was an extra perk. The back deck is awesome and spacious and we had a lovely night around the fire pit.

Lake vacation

The house was very nice, well spread out. The lake though, absolutely gorgeous! The water was so clean, we heard the loons, and saw bald eagles. The town was not far away so if needed to run to store it was great. Great vacation!

Guys weekend

Had a guys weekend here with a group of 11 in our late 20’s. The location is awesome; secluded, scenic, and relaxing. Yard, water access, and the fire pit really made the weekend. House was great as well. Good kitchen, bathrooms, and comfortable sleeping arrangements for the whole group. Host was accommodating and communication was easy.

Huge sandy beach with shallow swimming area

The house was big and spread out with lots of common space. We didn't feel like we were on top of each other. Had everything we could have needed. The yard and the beach are the best part for us. We spent all day out in the water. Calm enough for paddle boards. Great place! Would be perfect for children

Beautiful Lake

We had a wonderful stay at this lake house. The beach and lake on their property is clean and perfect for kids. We were worried our busy scheduled kids would be bored. In the end, we had more than enough to do with the yard games we brought, boats, swimming, games, eating. We were lucky to be there when the Skowhegan State Fair was going on. The kids had a blast! The owner was responsive. House was clean and fully stocked.

Perfect Getaway

My partner and I had such a lovely time at this home. The house interior is beautiful and spacious. The couch is so comfy! The views were amazing. It rained the whole weekend, and we weren't even bothered as the home itself was so nice to spend time in. I highly recommend sipping coffee and looking out over the lake to get those relaxing vacation vibes started. The kitchen was the most well stocked one I've experienced, it had everything we needed to cook. Host was quickly responsive, and their departure instructions were simple to follow, and completely reasonable. 100 percent would stay again.

Great Get AWAY - THANK YOU!

This vacation was super wonderful. Enjoyed the perfect Maine cottage with my growing adult families. The beach was perfect for my 2 yr. old granddaughter, the private yard was great for our dogs, and the house layout for wonderful for sleeping and gathering. We rented a poontoon and had a great time navigating the lake, which is so clean, warm, & peaceful. We felt like it was all ours, not croweded and very enjoyable. My son and I went kayaking too. The house had everything we could have wanted, so well stocked compared to other rentals. The fact that this home had so many options to sunbathe, gather on the deck, go to the sandy beach, play catch with the dogs in the yard, explore the lake, gather in the family room and relax in the dining area made our stay so enjoyable. Loved listening to the Loons.... We ventured out to the Skowhegan Fair and found Donna's Ice Cream as well as had lobsters from "High Tide, Low Tide" and went to the "Maine Grain", and "Lakewood Inn" for dinner. My family really enjoyed this home. It was a great week of relaxing and being together. Thank you Beth....we will certainly return again!
