About this property

Beautiful sunsets at waterfront cottage on Snow Pond in the Belgrade Lakes.

A charming cottage with 100 feet of private waterfront on Messalonskee Lake (Snow Pond) situated in a quiet neighborhoodb on a dirt road just off Pond Road in [Sidney], Maine.
Come spend a week swimming in the warm water, exploring the lake by kayak and paddle board or relaxing in the spacious yard with the biggest decision of the day being if you eat dinner before or after the beautiful sunset!  The cottage is nicely situated between Augusta and Waterville and minutes to the town of Belgrade.
This well-appointed cottage sleeps 6-8 people and has 4 bedrooms. It has a spacious kitchen with an eat at counter overlooking the lake, dining room that seats 8 and a full bathroom with tub. The main floor has 2 bedrooms with a full bed and queen bed. Downstairs provides a large living room for relaxing on a rainy day and watching cable TV or streaming your favorite movies. Downstairs there are 2 bedrooms, a queen bed and a bunk bed.
The cottage has a wonderful large deck (located on the main floor with stairs down to the lawn) with patio table for outdoor dining and a gas grill.  Open water views, shady willow trees, oversized dock system plus waterfront with a great sandy bottom. Included with the cottage are 2 kayaks, 1 paddle board and life jackets. There is a fire pit in the front yard to end the day with s’mores.  There is a large open yard to relax, let the kids run around or play corn hole. Great bass fishing on the lake!
We allow 1 well behaved dog. NO smoking! We have a spring well and holding tank for a septic system so please use water sparingly. There is no AC but each bedroom has a ceiling or floor fan. Cottage sleeps 6-8.
We are 10 minutes from the Snow Pond Concert venue and 20 minutes from Colby College. LOTS of great golfing nearby: Belgrade Lakes, Waterville Country Club, Augusta Country Club, and Diadema Golf Club. Or day trip it to Sugarloaf or Sunday River Golf Courses. Please note the cottage is down a hill from the parking area. It might be a bit steep for some. Also - there is a boat lift and sometimes a party boat on the right hand side of the dock. We are happy to share our home with you. Please respect it and leave it as you found it. Welcome to the beautiful Belgrade Lakes!

This is the perfect Maine lake getaway. Great location, beautiful lake and couldn’t be a better spot on the lake for sunsets. The camp itself was spotless when we got there, spacious and had a great camp vibe. It’s a beautifully rural area yet close enough to the amenities of Augusta that it’s convenient. Liz was also very easy to communicate with.

Cozy camp with great view and access to the lake. Huge willows for afternoon shade and a bevy of bird sightings. Comfortable beds with beautiful quilts. Good access to a grill and plenty of kitchen utensils to feel like you're in your own kitchen. Responsive gracious owner.

Nice lakefront cabin

We enjoyed our stay. The sunsets were stunning and the area was quiet. The lack of AC is usually an issue in Maine but we were unlucky to be up during a hot and humid week. The basement bedroom and family room was still comfortable.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The lake and the neighborhood location was quiet, the cabin/camp met our needs, sunsets were gorgeous as were the frequent visits from the loons! Owner was great to work with prior to checking and preparing for departure.

Nice location

The camp was nice and good location. Wished it would have air conditioning as was extremely hot in the camp. As far as cleanliness the downstairs was full of dog hair and I think the cleaning lady forgot to put sheets on the beds, as were made but no sheets or pillow cases. But a beautiful spot on the lake. The sunsets were awesome.

Sadly the weather is out of our control! There are ceiling fans in 3 bedrooms and lots of fans to move to where you would like them. Also the downstairs usually stays cool - but it was extremely hot. I apologize for the dog hair. I kindly let the previous renter bring 2 dogs - they made a mess and I will not be able to allow dogs next year. Usually the beds are made and I’ll make sure they are in the future. Glad you enjoyed the sunsets!

Tranquil getaway

Nice clean camp! Amazing sunsets! We were afraid to set off the alarm for the holding tank so we went home to shower (luckily we only live in Oakland). The downstairs was a great space but we had to keep emptying the dehumidifier to keep the dampness out. We wish there had been a sandy beach area for easier access to the lake for our granddaughter. And... we had a couple of very hot days and the camp was hot...

Thanks for the review & glad you enjoyed your stay. Sorry you were worried about the water so much you didn’t shower. We know guests will shower - just hope they don’t take super long ones. We appreciate the downstairs stays cool on those hot days or sit outside in our bathing suits under the willow trees for shade.

Cute Maine Camp

Everything was clean and welcoming when we arrived. The kitchen and linen closet were well stocked with necessary supplies. Plenty of room for 4 adults and 4 kids (under the age of 9). Front porch overlooking Snow Pond was wonderful for morning coffee or evening boardgames. Dock was great for swimming and tying up a boat. Paddle boarding in the cove was a great morning activity that everyone enjoyed. Elizabeth was very responsive with any questions that came up throughout our stay. Will stay here again in the future.

My parents build our ‘camp’ when I was in kindergarten. I luckily inherited it a few years ago. We rent a few weeks each summer to cover some costs. I hope you enjoy it as much as we have all these years!
