☼ Maine Lakefront Getaway ☼

Our beautiful Maine lakefront getaway offers all the modern conveniences in a traditional camp-style three bedroom home on the shore of pristine Sabbath Day Lake, a 1.5 mile lake in the Sebago Lakes region.

Enjoy beautiful sunsets and stunning views of the lake from our two decks, living room, kitchen and master bedroom. We have a main bedroom upstairs with king-size bed and private bathroom, a bedroom on the ground floor with queen-size bed and private bathroom, and a loft area upstairs with two single beds.

We have a private beach area (size depends on water level of lake) and a shared private beach with nearby homes. Enjoy swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, standup paddle boards or just sit back and listen to the loons and look for our bald eagles. Modern conveniences include a/c, dishwasher, wi-fi, washer/dryer, microwave, 50-inch TV, small office space. Newly renovated kitchen and bathrooms.

You’ll never want to leave the camp, but if you do, we are just 24 miles from Portland, 17 miles from Freeport, and minutes from the Maine Wildlife Park, Sabbathday Lake Shaker Village, Pineland Farms, and the Oxford Casino. We are also just minutes away from golf courses, shopping and restaurants.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

This is a lovely lakeside cottage. The house is comfortable and really well-equipped, everything you need is there, especially well- equipped kitchen. It appears the owners use the house and just leave everything there. It is very homey. And the lake is beautiful. I went kayaking every day. Great to have the beach too. The interior pictures don't quite do the place justice. It is really beautifully decorated. The interior stairs are a bit steep for older folks to use the master bedroom, but manageable for most people. And the view from that bedroom is spectacular. This is the best lakeside rental we have ever had.
This was the best sunset.

We had a lot of fun on the lake and spent a ton of time on the deck and the dock. All the boats and paddles were functional, and we had a great time paddling and swimming. We especially enjoyed kayaking/canoing over to the gourmet ice cream shop http://brescaandthehoneybee.com/ on the other end of the lake. On the way back to the house we stopped for a swim at a lovely little swimming beach. We fished daily and caught huge bass right off the dock. Neighbors were pleasant and friendly. We enjoyed fires on the shared beach fire pits.The local brewery was great too, only 6 minutes away, which had live music on the patio on Saturday night and fantastic pizza and beer. Supermarket and farm stands are nearby for groceries. The place was very tidy and well equipped with tons of fresh towels and sheets. The kitchen was packed with dishes, glassware and cookware. We did not need any of the spices, oils or vinegars, games, stereo, coffe makers or toys. We brought our own of all of these.The grill worked well and we used it twice. We really enjoyed the outdoor seating and table where we ate and played games a ton. I would bring one of those fly repellent fans bc sometimes the flies come out when you eat outside -sometimes in the evening only. It bears mentioning that the Maine Interstate and a small highway are close to this end of the lake. At home I live near a highway and I had hoped to escape those sounds for the week, it wasn't loud but it was there.

All the comforts of home with great Lake views, close to everything else you might need

3 Mini split ACs for total cooling was an absolute delight as was the WIFI! Fully adorned kitchen and an amazing primary suite with great lake views from all lake facing windows. An updated ensuite shower and bathroom on the second floor was wonderful. There is a queen front bedroom on the first floor with access to the first floor bathroom/tub shower. There are additional twin double beds upstairs as well, off the primary. The primary bedroom has an incredibly comfortable king bed. Fishing was steady, and you DO need water shoes (which our Host Jerry pointed out well in advance), if you take a dip off the dock due to the rocky bottom. There’s a shared beach 2 doors down that has a sandy and gradual grade into the water. A Canoe and 3 kayaks await. Jerry is accessible, prompt, detailed and accommodating should you have questions. This is a lovely home and we enjoyed our stay, as well as the lake, dock, view, A/C and access to Hannaford’s Supermarket and Pineland Farms café, bakery and shop - not to be missed.

The property on the lake was just what we needed. We enjoyed coffee and reading on the deck and dock. It was wonderful to use the kayaks and paddle boards. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had all the cooking tools you could need. It is close by many great things to visit.

Traveled from New Mexico to visit with my son. I was looking for a place which would be near my son's residence giving us a centralized place to meet. It was just a few minutes away from my son's residence. House served all our needs and was clean and neat. Beautiful views from windows and deck. Will definitely stay again!!!

Private yet close to amenities

Compact cottage with everything you might need and more. Plenty of towels and extra supplies. The beach is shady and the water is nice and shallow for small children. We especially appreciated the air conditioning upstairs and downstairs and the both the king and queen beds were very comfortable. Our hosts were quick to answer our questions about the fishing tackle and we loved seeing the hummingbirds on the window feeder. A nice bonus was the $10 lobster rolls from nearby Hannaford and our daughter in law got to see a moose for the first time at the Maine Wildlife Center.

July Stay

The camp itself and sleeping quarters were very nice with all the amenities. Issues we noticed… No cupboard space for food as cupboards were full. No beach area on the lake. No view from deck. Pitch on all deck furniture. Lower deck was overgrown and not clean which I personally cleaned up. Trash bins were full when we arrived. Owner did have them emptied. The pictures provided were very deceiving and did not represent the view.

Nice Lake getaway

We had a wonderful stay here. The hosts were extremely responsive to our questions and responded immediately. The home was very clean and had everything you could possibly need, and then some. There was comfortable seating in the living areas and the beds were also very comfortable. It would be awesome if there were less tree cover in the back so the view of the lake was more clear. But sitting on the dock was a beautiful view. Neighbors kept to themselves. The hosts kept a great binder of places to visit / restaurant recommendations in the area and we relied heavily on that when looking to venture out. The Maine wildlife park was amazing. My daughter loved it. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

All We Hoped For!

The location was perfect, we specifically wanted to stay on Sabbathday Lake (SO clean!). Everything was smooth, both check-in and out. We were pleasantly surprised by how fully stocked the rental was, from plenty of towels to everything you could think of in the kitchen. The tiniest of things but we couldn't find any trash bags, no worries at all, we left a couple for the next guests! The owners obviously have thought of everything for their guests, thank you!
