About this property
Spectacular Maine Lake House with private waterfront near Bates College
Welcome to this stunning lake house on a pristine lake close to the Maine Lake Region and the city of Portland. This is a high end, well-stocked property with two buildings - the main house and a separate guest house.
This location is perfect for a special family vacation from where you can explore many different attractions in Maine - from the coast to the mountains to the city. This is also a perfect spot for families visiting colleges, including Bates (10 minutes), Bowdoin (45 minutes) and Colby (1 hour). All 4 seasons are spectacular. For young families looking for a learn-to-ski vacation, Lost Valley Ski Resort is 5 minutes away. Sunday River and Sugarloaf are also accessible for the more serious skiers.
In the main house, there's a first floor master suite with huge walk-in closet, and it's own patio through sliding doors overlooking the lake. This room has a King size bed with Dream Cloud mattress and plenty of room for a blow up mattress or travel cot. On the second floor are two large bedrooms, both with Queen size beds and Green Tea Memory Foam Mattresses. There is also a lovely bathroom on the second floor, with large walk in shower. The massive media room is on the second floor with a pull out Full Size sofa bed as part of the sectional sofa. This room contains a very large projector screen for those fun movie nights, and is equipped with Apple TV.
Back on the first floor you will be wowed by the vaulted living room and massive stone fireplace, open dining room and gourmet level kitchen, with granite countertops, Viking stove, Bosch dishwasher and SubZero refrigerator. The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans, and all items you need for a comfortable stay. There is a den off the kitchen with Queen size pullout sofa and flat screen TV, and a private office, powder room and laundry room with washer/dryer.
The separate guest house contains a studio apartment on the second floor with King size Bed and Dream Cloud mattress, Queen size pull out sofa, and lots of extra space for air mattresses if needed. The guest house contains its own modern bathroom with walk-in shower.
For help booking Peak season weeks that are blocked out on the calendar please contact the owner to verify availability as they might be available. A minimum of a week's booking is required during Peak season.
Please note the red paddle boat in the photos is no longer available, but 2 kayaks and a paddle board are available for guest use.
