About this property

Welcome to your perfect summer escape — “The Point on Dodge!”

The Point on Dodge Pond — your winter basecamp in Rangeley

Winter hits different out here. The Point sits at the very tip of its own private peninsula on Dodge Pond, and when the snow comes, the whole place turns into a postcard — frozen lake, quiet pines, and some of the best skiing in New England 20 minutes from the front door.

Ski Saddleback, sleep 14. Saddleback Mountain is 11 miles away (about a 20-minute drive), and we've rented two ski lockers at the hill for our guests — leave your skis, boards, and boots there instead of hauling gear back and forth every day. When you're done on the mountain, come home to a warm house with room for everyone: the Point sleeps 14, so bring the whole crew, two families, or the full ski-trip group chat.

Snowmobile straight from the door. When Dodge Pond is completely frozen, you can ride directly from the property onto the lake and connect to the local snowmobile trail network — no trailering needed. (Travel across the frozen lake is at your own risk.) Coming from out of town with multiple sleds? There's plenty of room to park snowmobile trailers right on the property — unload and you're off. Beyond sledding, the Rangeley Lakes region is built for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and ice fishing. Mornings start slow with coffee (we've got you covered with both K-cups and drip), evenings end by the fire.

The practical stuff: check-in 4:00 PM, checkout 10:00 AM (we're flexible when we can be — just ask). EV charger on site (J1772). Tap water's safe to drink. Two full living areas, a real kitchen, wifi, and plenty of parking for the whole caravan.

Come see the Point in its winter coat.

This was a well equipped clean property. The kitchen had everything we needed. There was enough kitchenware, plates, bowls, cups, silverware for many people. The bedrooms were wonderful, clean and accommodating. Same for the bathrooms. The outside stone firepit was a great place the gather together at night.

Everything at this house was perfect. The space, the supplies, the location were more than we expected. We used it to go to Saddleback and it was a quick drive over (20-25 mins). In addition it was close proximity to restaurants and markets. The basement was a plus with all the games for the kids to enjoy. We will be coming back next year again to enjoy the house.

Bachelorette weekend

We had the best time staying here for a mellow bachelorette party! The kitchen was perfect for the private chef we had come cook dinner for us, the rooms were comfortable, clean and spacious. The property is beautiful, private and well-kept and the owner was accommodating and incredibly hospitable. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone in any season and will definitely be back in the winter for sled season!

Immaculate and well-appointed

This property was clearly remodeled very recently, and much attention to detail was paid to create a turnkey rental experience. Our stay was in the winter and it was very convenient to saddleback. We’d be very interested to see what it was like to be right on the water in the warmer months, but the outdoor space is not something I can comment on other than the fact that the view from the deck was spectacular, and walks down to the waters edge were a pleasant way to start my days and catch evening sunsets. The house was very spacious and bedroom. Space was extremely accommodating with comfortable beds, nice linens and everything we needed. No shortage of bathroom options either, so it’s easy for everybody to get ready to go. Perhaps best of all was a brand new kitchen with plenty of room to gather, and all of the kitchen gadgets and appliances needed to make meals just like we were at home. Plus, a very nice gas grill out on the deck! The living room area was wonderful to gather in with a massive sectional couch and lovely fireplace. Plus the house had plenty of tech with a very nice TV, fas Internet, etc. To top it off, our host, Eric, was extremely communicative and friendly. We’d happily return and wholeheartedly recommend!.

First time that the pictures did not do the property justice. So much room for all of us! Definitely the most well stocked house we’ve been to, wasn’t much that we were in need of. Thank you and hope to be back!
