What a great escape from the hustle and bustle of life! My husband and I loved the cottage on the lake. Everything was beautiful from the kitchen to the views to the quiet setting!

The home was perfectly clean and had everything we needed! Comfortable beds, every possible amenity, beautiful wood working and the view was unsurpassed, right on the shore. Quiet, peaceful and gorgeous. Paula was the the perfect host. She answered any question promptly and was always there if we needed anything. I wish we could leave more than 5 stars.

Perfect lake vacation

This was the perfect lake cabin for my husband and me and our daughter and son-in-law. They were delighted with the lake access just outside the door and took advantage of swimming and boating almost every day. My husband and I enjoyed the gorgeous view and quiet reading time. We did a few day trips in the area as well. The cabin was exceptionally clean and provided all the linens, kitchen supplies and boating needs we could want. The interior has been recently remodeled and is very comfortable for four people. We enjoyed our stay and would book again if in the area.

Lake house stay in Maine

The property was in great condition and very fully and attractively equipped. We didn’t even get around to using all the amenities. Having kayaks available to use on the lake was appreciated, and the lake is so close that you feel like you’re right on the water when you’re sitting in the living room. We also appreciated that the owner made it easy to recycle. Communications were easy and the owner was very responsive.

A Week on Forest Lake

Our experience in Maine was outstanding. Paula communicated clearly so that we knew what to expect. The house was clean and prepared with everything needed for a week long retreat. The kitchen had everything needed. We had access to a canoe, kayaks, life jackets and paddles. The fishing was excellent! Paula even had fresh-cut flowers and coffee waiting for us. Couldn’t have been a better experience.
