Comfortable house on beautiful pond
I have been renting houses on lakes in Maine for over 30 years. This house feels like a true home, rather than a camp. The beds are comfortable, the furniture is plentiful and comfortable, and the kitchen is better stocked than most year-round kitchens. Having a truly comfortable mattress on vacation is a rare and glorious experience! It was easy to cook all kinds of meals, given that there is abundance of pots, serving dishes, and utensils. The very private master is on the first floor, and the two other bedrooms and full bath are on second floor, giving guests a lot of privacy. Having guests was easy given the setup.The owner is very responsive and communicative. We got answers to questions immediately and action was taken quickly when lightening knocked out the internet service.The pond is beautiful, and does not have any public access, so there are not a lot of boats out. We made use of the canoe and two kayaks, and spent a lot of time sitting on the dock. The one thing to be aware of is there is a summer camp across the pond from the dock. On the few really hot days, there were many kids on the water, either in various boats or swimming.I highly recommend making a reservation for the small plates or multi-course dinner at the Waterford Inne. The setting is magical, food delicious, owners lovely, and it is right up the street from the house.
