Though our weather wasn’t perfect we had a lovely time. Kids swam, went out to the islands in kayaks, built a fire, fished. Everyone enjoyed the home. There are 3 levels so we weren’t on top of each other. There is plenty of open area as well as a cozy living space. The kitchen is small but well stocked. Storage is limited in the kitchen itself but there is a lot of space in the lower level for extras. Sitting on the dock you can really enjoy the view of the water, it’s beautiful and serene. We loved the house and everyone wants to go back. For myself and husband, we found the stairs challenging both in bringing in clothes and food but also going up and down the levels. (We are 75/87)Steve was very attentive and helpful. Just a great experience!

What a wonderful vacation we had at this beautiful home! We especially loved the million dollar view of the lake from the magnificent windows. The owner goes to great lengths to make sure that renters are comfortable. We have already booked our next trip!

Fantastic lake house in a great location

Property was exactly as advertised. Beautiful home with easy lake/dock access. Home is tucked away in a well maintained neighborhood, great for a quite and peaceful trip. Owner was very responsive to any inquiries and check in and check out was seamless. I would recommend staying here, just 30 min south of Bangor and an easy 1 hour drive to Acadia and Bar Harbor.

Lake house

We spent a wonderful week at Steve's house - the house is perfect with lots of space for the 4 of us and the location right on the lake just amazing. Even though we were there in October we were able to go kayaking several times with the kayaks that were provided. We also did lots of day trips to Acadia. We would love to come back!

Amazing Lake house

Quiet getaway location. House was clean, stocked with everything you could want. Comfortable beds with upgraded bedding and towels. Acadia National Park and Bar Harbor are about an hour drive, which was perfect for us, I’ve stayed in Bar Harbor in the past but MUCH prefer this quiet get away. We used the kayaks to explore the lake. Only reason for 4 stars on check in, it was raining quite hard on our arrival and I struggled with the lock box, spotty service and the WIFI password wasn’t on site. Stephen was quick to respond with the password when I requested it. I will definitely plan a future trip back to this amazing lake house.

Nice Lake Home

Overall we had a nice stay here and great memories exploring the little islands on the small skiff we brought with us. It could have been cleaner however especially in the kitchen (utensil drawer had food debris & sticky stuff in the kitchen towel drawer), and the upstairs bedroom with twin beds had a smell in the carpet I couldn’t get out even scrubbing a few spots that I thought may have had a dog accident or something. I ended up covering it up with carpet powder and leaving it on for a whole day. It needs updating in the kitchen area. The fridge is missing shelving and drawers so for our family of 5 it was a tight squeeze for food items for a weeks stay and there was no ice maker. It’s over 20 minutes to Walmart and restaurants so we stayed in a cooked a lot of meals there. The kitchen could also use more everyday cooking items such as bakeware, plastic cups for the kids, mixing bowls, measuring cups, food storage containers for left overs, there were no spices or Saran Wrap so bring your own. Most of the other homes we’ve rented in this price range which was over $400 per night after all of the taxes/fees included these simple things to make life easier. They aren’t things you want to tote around after driving 2000+ miles. This listing also says it’s not pet friendly however there’s definitely a dog living there in the off season. The first thing we did when we arrived was take the fur covered couch cover off and wash it due to the hair. Overall, we enjoyed it. I just wasn’t happy with all of the extra housework I had to do upon arrival for the price. Also the lockbox to the property gave us an issue getting the key out and the cleaning lady showed up and started circling the home around 10 am and our checkout wasn’t until 11 am. She finally pulled in around 10:30 am in the pouring down rain as we were trying to get our stuff packed up and was in the home before 11 moving my husbands remaining stuff around. Regardless of whether they had to turn it for that day it wasn’t ok!

This beautiful, spotlessly clean lakefront home in a quiet community is hard to beat. With an easy, scenic drive to Acadia Natl Park and Bar Harbor it really fit the bill for us. Add the use of kayaks and fishing out side your door and it was a place we’ll remember for a long time.

Autumn on Phillips Lake

The house is exactly as described. It was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The beds and bedding were wonderful. The internet was fast and worked well. It is not an appropriate house for anyone with mobility issues; there are 13 stairs from the entrance to the main level/ kitchen, living room, master bed and bath. The window wall provides a beautiful view of the lake. We did make a fire in the fire pit one eve and took the kayak out. Communication with host Steve was great. Thank you for offering your home!

Beautiful solitude.

The view of the lake as the sun rises is stunning. We absolutely loved our stay at the lake house. It is so quiet and peaceful. The listing is very accurate and Stephen the manager is great to work with and if you have any questions he gets back to you very quickly. We spent a week exploring Maine and used this as our home base and it was as beautiful as everything else in the state.

Great Lake House

We had a wonderful summer vacation at Steven's place on Phillip's Lake and definitely recommend staying here. We had my parents and elementary aged children with us. We appreciated that there were 2 bathrooms (one on the top level with the 2 bedrooms and a larger bathroom on the "middle" level with the kitchen and 3rd bedroom). You walk in on the lower level which currently has 2 "sitting rooms", one with a loveseat and built in shelving and another open area with a large "L" shaped couch looking out over the lake. We loved the kayaks and beach area. Please drive slow around the lake. The road is curvy, hilly, and a pedestrian walkway. Plan your trip accordingly as you will need about 7 minutes to make the drive going a safe speed. This is a very beautiful location, and you won't be disappointed for picking this house for your vacation!

Family 4th of July on the lake

What a fantastic time! The property is beautiful - private and quiet. The home is spacious and clean with great lake views. We went on walks every morning and spent time on the lake front beach - evening campfires with s’mores! We did a little fishing off the dock and watched the fireworks around the lake on the 4th. Our 5 year olds had a blast. Host Stephen was awesome! We are looking forward to another family trip here soon!

Highly Recommended!

This is my family's second stay in the past three months. Both stays were absolutely perfect. The view out the window is breathtaking! The weather was better on our second trip and we were able to take advantage of the lawn chairs down by the lake. The lake is very beautiful, graced by small mountains in the distance. Even though it was Memorial Day weekend, we only saw a few boats on the lake. We highly recommend this home!
