Well appointed, beautiful views.

We enjoyed a memorable ski weekend with friends in this sweet home with beautiful views. The fully equipped kitchen became a hub for cooking family-sized meals, and we loved the cozy dining room. On the day we decided not to ski, my husband took a relaxing steam, then we explored the pathway to the lake, and shopped in the cute town of Norway. In the home, the kids had fun playing outside or playing with the toys and games provided. This place is super clean and offers lots of comfortable touches. Would definitely recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Gillian Preston

Hi, I'm Gillian, and I live and work in Boston. I ride my bike everywhere, and love pilates, swimming, and reading a good book. Cooking for my family is one of my favorite things to do, so you will usually find me trying out a new recipe.

Why they chose this property

Most recently in the dentist’s chair, I took a deep breath, closed my eyes, and imagined Maine. Thoughts of my time on Lake Christopher instantly relaxed me. The Bethel region offers everything from skiing, swimming, kayaking, boating and hiking. We are so fortunate to have this gem of an area in New England.

What makes this property unique

This property is sparking clean and offers top-of-the-line everything. Modern-day conveniences are located throughout, yet this place feels like home in a cozy and inviting way. I love the stunning views of nature when sitting on the back deck! This place stands out from the rest with unique lighting, thoughtful decor, and beautiful original artwork throughout.
