We had an amazing stay here and would love to come back. The location was a dream, and in proximity to Bar Harbor. Thank you so much! Super clean, the lake was unreal, and I could live on that dock!!

Solar eclipse trip

We spent four days including the day of the eclipse. Of course it has to snow a foot of snow the day before we left. Our host was awesome. They communicated very well in any issues we had. They had the driveway plowed week for our arrival. We like a clean home. Well this one was very clean. Really appreciate this. The house had everything one would need The back deck, deck by the pond and fire pit are all very nice and new. Even with the precious snow we enjoyed using them. I can imagine how nice they would be during the warmer seasons. All in all, I would definitely recommend this place

Thank you so much for choosing our home for your stay! We take pride in keeping a spotless home for our guests to relax and enjoy their vacation in and appreciate guests such as yourself who treat it as they would their own! We would love to have you and your daughter back anytime! Maybe with a little less snow and a lot more sun (except of course in the event of an eclipse!)

About the host

Hosted by Abby Glidden

Host profile image
A Maine Native that enjoys all that lake life has to offer! I have three children that keep my husband and I always swimming, boating and fishing. We wanted to provide that same experience for families looking to get away and enjoy the quieter side of life.

Why they chose this property

Beech Hill pond is an absolutely amazing lake and having a camp on it has been a lifelong dream of mine. After searching for just the right property we finally found it at 451A Point rd. It was exactly the right mix of woods, water, shade and sun. The home itself has plenty of room for our family and friends with three levels of space. We have so many future plans to keep adding to our space so keep an eye out for new pictures!

What makes this property unique

This home has a space to please everyone in your party. The kitchen and living room are open concept so everyone can spend time together preparing meals and enjoying time together. Off of the main floor is a very large deck outfitted with a propane grill, and dining sets. When your ready to relax in the sun head down to the lower deck which extends right out onto the water with plenty of comfortable seating options! As the day goes on move over to the brand new fire pit with LLBean all weather Adirondack chairs. When its time for bed choose between the Bear or Moose family style rooms which have a queen bed and a twin be in each. The Main floor room has another queen bed.
