About this property

Renovated Waterfront House with sandy beach and plenty of parking!

The northeast is looking like a scorcher this summer and we have just the solution to escape the heat and humidity, inside and out!

Welcome to our home away from home. This lovely, pond-front property has a beautiful, flat, sandy beach with plenty of parking. The house has been recently renovated and includes NEW appliances (stove, fridge), kitchen, beds (all memory foam), LVP floors, drywall, paint, toilet, and more. The home is four season, 2 bedroom, 3/4 bath,1,200 square feet on .6 acres located in Shapleigh, ME.

The porch is surrounded by windows with a dining table that seats six and an oversized sectional couch for watching the sunset and relaxing with family and friends. In the afternoon, the sun fills the porch with warm light and a relaxing energy. The master bedroom has a king bed and the second has triple bunk beds (2 on bottom and one on top). The main space is open and inviting with a brand new heat pump and three settings for heat, ac and dehumidifier. Did we mention air conditioning!?

Granny Kent is a natural spring with great water quality - perfect for swimming, kayaking (we provide 3), boating, fishing, paddle boarding, or just floatin' around. Westerly facing, you will enjoy breathtaking sunsets while having shade and privacy from vegetation along the right side of the property. There is no dock currently, but the beach is a low slope to a 8-foot depth. Perfect for kids or older adults. We do have intentions on a new dock in the near future. There is a firepit (beach pit) near the water's edge that fits 8 chairs comfortably.

Bring your small boat/ fishing boat and launch directly on the property as there is no public boat launch on this pond. We also have a screen tent outside with a 7 foot table and grill tent with grill.

The home sits on a concrete slab with exterior block wall so the inside space is easy to cool on hot summer days and retains heat on cool fall evenings.

Sorry, no laundry facilities onsite and dishwasher not yet in service. Laundry is located 15 minutes away by the Milk Room, where there is also an Asian restaurant, hardware store, convenience store, gas, ATM’s and coffee. Harris Turkey Farm is only 5 minutes from the house where you can savor the most amazing maple slushie and grab a delicious bite from the food truck (see website for hours and service days).

We hope you stay with us and build many years of incredible memories!

Great stay!
Cottage was clean, spacious and right on the water. Level ground and beautiful sunset made it so enjoyable. Owners were quick to respond. Will definitely return a week in summer and winter.

About the host

Hosted by Marissa Fortier

Host profile image
Hi, We are Mat and Marissa, and we are happy to be your hosts. We live about 35 minutes from the property and are here to ensure you have a wonderful stay. We have two daughters. This is our first year renting the property (as we bought it last year), so please let us know what you need or what we can do better.

Why they chose this property

We grew up renting the cabin next to our house. We have unforgettable memories on Granny Kent and can't wait for your family to create your own.

What makes this property unique

Granny Kent is a great pond, and it's spring-fed and clean. There is plenty of space for fishing and having fun. We also have a flat, sandy, open lot with plenty of parking. The furnishings are sturdy and comfortable with a home away from home feeling.
