Our family of seven (two parents with five adult children) really enjoyed our stay here. We spent a lot of time on the dock or out on the water in the kayaks, paddleboard, and paddleboat. The pond (more like a lake to us) was beautiful and we so enjoyed seeing and hearing the loons. We made multiple meals at the house and the kitchen was well equipped. The large dining room table comfortably sat our family for meals and several nights of Pictionary. The beds were all comfortable and we appreciated having two full baths. The kids enjoyed the pool table and ping pong in the basement. The only hiccup we encountered involved us running out of water. Paula and Ken were very responsive and walked us through getting the water tank filled. We would stay here again. It all added up to a lovely weeklong family vacation.

Paula’s house was wonderful for our family reunion - the photos don’t do it justice! There were so many different watercraft available for our use, and puzzles and games to use - and it’s clear the house is well-maintained and cared for. The lake was so peaceful - the noisiest thing was the loons! We loved our stay!

Perfect family getaway

Such a great stay! The lake is beautiful and it is such a great perk to have the assortment of kayaks and canoe to use. We had a great time fishing both on the water and from the dock. The home is very roomy and comfortable, lots of movies, puzzles and games available. A great place to make memories with the family.

Peaceful Waterfront Vacation

Our family had a wonderful vacation stay at your home in Norway, Maine! The house was beautiful, spacious, and very clean. North Pond itself was lovely. It was a perfect, peaceful place to fish, kayak, and canoe. If I could rate it higher than 5 stars, I would. We loved it!!!

Very comfortable quiet home on North Pond with a sturdy dock and swimming platform. Lots of different kayaks to choose from and a 2 seater paddle boat and a canoe. Wonderful spot for swimming and star gazing at night, too. The pond has a large bog on the north end which was filled with rare plants (carnivorous sundew, bog rosemary, marsh fern, cranberry, and many others) and lots of birds. Ducks, loons, herons, kingfishers, flycatchers and we even saw 2 or 3 sandhill cranes the last morning we were there. First time sighting (for me) in Maine! The kitchen was fully equipped with clad pots and pans, and everything you might need. There was lots of counter space and an island and two nice tables. We loved the one on the screened in porch. Very comfy chairs and couches. Our grandkids visited from their rental and loved the pool table and table soccer game in the basement, too. We never used the fire pit but we will next time. The only disappointment was the outdoor grill needed a deep cleaning (yuck!). I purchased a steel brush, steel scrubbing pads and rubber gloves and when I told the owner she offered to reimburse me. There was also a moldy smell in the downstairs bathroom from a leak under the sink. We put down some baking soda and bought some room fresheners to mask the odor. I'm sure that will get repaired. We look forward to coming back again. Sunrises were spectacular, too. Ten stars!!

Perfect for a family get togerther.

We rented the house for one week. We needed a place to stay while in the area for a wedding. Everything was just as the renter had posted. Very clean and well taken care of. Fall is a beautiful time of the year to visit this area. We enjoyed the pond! It was very peaceful. The house fit all our needs.The renters are excellent to work with. Thanks for the great memories! Hope we can stay again.

A Perfect Week!

The house and lake exceeded our hopes. We had never been to Norway before, and were pleased to find everything was just as advertised or a little better. We had plenty of room for adult children and their significant others. Played lots of ping pong and pool, had campfires every night, kayaked every day. Bliss. Owners provided all the information we needed and were quick to answer questions.

taking the kids ice fishing

Wonderful spot for a kid's ice fishing trip! Walk right onto the ice to set traps and build a fire in the fire pit to watch the flags. Lots of action as the lake is full of largemouth bass. Our children had a blast chasing the flags! The house was roomie and easily accommodated our two familys. We would definitely repeat.

Wonderful Family Vacation

We had another wonderful stay at this lake house. It is so well appointed with a variety of boats, games, and everything you could once in the kitchen. I needed a potato masher and a garlic press and they were all there! From the fire pit outside to the woodburning stove in the living room, we enjoyed the loons, the deer, and the muskrat we found kayaking around the pond. What a wonderful place to bring a family for a long weekend. Comfortable beds, a large living room with an open kitchen, and the glorious screen porch for breakfast and dinners looking out on the lake. Our seven year old believes this is “his “cabin to go to in the summer.

Even better than expected!

We were lucky enough to have a brief after Christmas vacation at the cabin. It was wonderful. We had two families (4 kids total) and it fit us with plenty of room to spare. We loved the basement which had foozball and pool and ping pong. We also took advantage of some ice fishing equipment-- we only caught a few but it entertained the kids all weekend long. Just a beautiful location and Paula was so kind and accomodating. I can't recommend it enough. We will be back!

Norway Ski & Skate Adventure

The property was great -- really enjoyed the layout of the house with the central fireplace and the view of the lake. My son really enjoyed sleeping in the top floor/loft area with a sky light directly above his bed -- he was able to fall asleep while literally gazing at the stars. Plenty of room for all and then some. We enjoyed a few days of skiing at Sunday River and some quiet time ice skating on the pond -- overall a wonderful few days in Maine!! Paula was very helpful with providing clear check-in/check-out instructions, and some recommendations as to restaurants in the area -- she was a great host! I would certainly return with my family to enjoy this property in any season!

We had a really nice stay at this North Pond house. Very comfortable, clean, and fun. Great open gathering area, great views of pond (frozen during our stay), nice wood stove, and good communications and instructions from the host. We were there for skiing at Mt.

Peaceful relaxing fun!

The property was all I expected it to be. The home was clean and well cared for and located in a very peaceful neighborhood. We were able to kayak with the loons. The family time spent playing the games on site and creating beautiful puzzles was much needed! There were also many sites around the area to explore and hike. The hosts were very informative and a pleasure to work with, I would definitely rent this property again!

Amazing!! Great place to relax.

Loons, deer, eagles, fish, solitude and relaxation aplenty!! Awesome place for families to spend quality family time together. Remote enough to feel “away from it all” but close enough to local amenities. Kids loved the kayaks (and the adults loved them too)! Cottage was very homey and offered everything we would ever need! Loved it!
