Tranquil waterfront cottage

4.91 out of 5 average rating, 85 reviews6 months ago

This Lakeside Retreat was a perfect weekend escape for two couples. In late September, we seemed to have the pond to ourselves and enjoyed sharing time around the firepit overlooking the lake. The Bathroom was spacious and one level up from the bedrooms downstairs. The kitchen had everything needed to prepare an excellent meal. I would highly recommend this cabin to a a small group of friends or family looking for a great location near Portland and Lake area attractions.Our host Bobbi was very responsive.

Cobb Cottage: Lake Beachfront Fri-Fri Jul-Aug

5 out of 5 average rating, 42 reviews5 months ago

My husband and I spent 6 days here for our anniversary. I wanted a location on the water and close to visit all the major coastal towns in Maine. This was perfect! The home, felt like home, and everything was clean and beautiful. Adam was very helpful whenever I had any questions. Sipping coffee every morning on the back porch and watching the sunrise over the lake was so peaceful. Grocery store close by and great hiking/walking areas right out the front door. Can’t wait to come back and bring the family.

⭐LAKESIDE STORY⭐2BR Log Cabin⭐ Fire Pit, Views!⭐

4.89 out of 5 average rating, 83 reviews4 months ago

We stayed over Thanksgiving. The place was just what I wanted. Big TV and fireplace. Since it was the holiday and I would be cooking I brought some pots and pans to make sure I would have what I needed. And they were needed as the kitchen is geared more toward outdoor summer meals and not cooking much inside. It was fine for the two of us in the winter. It is just as described - a log cabin, but nicely furnished.

Drift Away Cottage on Popham Beach

4.95 out of 5 average rating, 65 reviews6 months ago

For an early October weekend getaway, the cottage served us well. Access to the beach was an obstacle for us, as many of us have significant knee issues. The steep stairway to and from the beach did not serve us well, and I don’t remember reading about it prior to our booking. Thankfully we were able to access the beach another way, and enjoyed 2 beautiful sunny afternoons at the waters’ edge. This saved our weekend stay. The cottage is very well appointed and it was a joy to have a fully functioning kitchen with all the tools for cooking all our meals as we chose to stay put and enjoy the amenities provided. Thank you Barrett for sharing your beautiful family cottage with us. Memories were made and will be cherished.
