* 'We are in vacation heaven. What a great cottage, what a great area to visit. Hope to see you next year too!'
* 'It was just what we were looking for! Peace, quiet and seclusion, comfortable house and great weather'
* 'Thank you for letting us stay in such a lovely house- what a wonderful setting on the lake! We love the open space, all green and sunny, and had many dips in the lake-lovely and cool, but not freezing. This is our second year on Biscay Pond and we look forward to coming again. Can't beat the wonderful Pemaquid scenery, good food and friendly people.'
* 'We had one of our best vacations ever in this beautiful spot. Your home was bright, fresh & extremely comfortable.'

A poem from a guest

It's Saturday and to our dismay
We must take leave from Cottage Biscay
It's been a week of non-stop fun,
Biking, boating and lying in the sun!
Our hosts Karl & Mary were simply great
And our kids enjoyed staying up late!
We'll miss the lonely cry of the loon
And the warm pond that beckoned -
morning night and noon!
Even as we load up the car,
We watch the animals, Sandy and Star.
As we close up the cottage and shut the door
We can't wait to come back in 2004!

Loved it!
Mary's place was absolutely lovely and we had a great week filled with water play, hiking, and exploring the area. We especially loved the large open lawn for yard games and play with our 5-year-old. The property has a really nice entry point into the lake with a sandy bottom - absolutely ideal for swimming and kayaking! We saw a bald eagle flying overhead one morning while kayaking. Beds are comfy, and the house is perfectly equipped for vacation fun. Kitchen has the basics that you need for cooking and eating. Mary was very helpful but also gave us our space and privacy. Couldn't ask for a better host! If I had any feedback, it would be that the dock was a bit unstable - normally we like to put chairs out on the dock and sit at night, but it pitched back and forth too much for that, and our son was a little worried to walk on it. All in all, we loved Mary's beautiful place and her hospitality. Recommend 5/5.

Perfect in every way
This was a wonderful place to stay. We are very familiar with this part of Maine, and found this home to be perfectly located to enjoy the peninsula. The house itself is great - very cozy, clean and well equipped and maintained. The location on the lake is fantastic - very beautiful and peaceful. It's also a great place to kayak - we kept our kayaks down on the lawn and entered and exited the lake easily. Mary was a great host - very friendly and engaging. We'll certainly be back.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Berger

Host profile image
My parents purchased this gorgeous acreage in 1947. They ran a boys camp here until the 1960's. My husband, sons and I completely renovated our lakefront cottage when it was our summer home. After we built a permanent home and retired here, we began renting our dream cottage. This lakeside property has always been our family's sanctuary. I have served on the Pemaquid Watershed Association & now Coastal Rivers Conservation Trust Board of Directors as well as Bremen Conservation Commission and certainly know this area’s hiking, swimming, boating, fishing and paddling areas. Just ask...

Why they chose this property

We were fortunate to have inherited these peaceful natural shorefront, fields & woodlands. There was no place else on earth we'd rather be!

What makes this property unique

Waking up each morning to see nature’s beauty on the lake. Hearing the cry of the loons in the spring, summer and fall, swimming in the silky smooth water, boating, kayaking and canoeing on these many miles of waterway. Paddling down the Pemaquid River while watching the birds, fish, painted turtles, gorgeous trees and flowers. Eating breakfast or dinner on the cottage deck. Looking up at abundant stars on a crystal clear night while sitting in the open field. Watching sunsets from the field, deck, master bedroom suite, great room or enclosed porch. Walking or driving down the quiet country Fogler Road with it's canopy of trees. Listening to nature.......
Driving less than 10 minutes for groceries, shopping, theater, excellent restaurants or oceanside lobster pounds.
