We enjoyed our stay. This house in a convenient location with lots of stores, restaurants and available activities nearby. The house inside was beautiful with a peaceful view of the water. The open concept livingroom, diningroom, and kitchen was ideal for our family to be able to spend time together while on vacation.

Great Stay!

What a wonderful house! She’s much bigger than at first glance and was perfect for our family of 7! My kids loved fishing on the pond. The busy highway was something to get used to but overall, we had a pleasant stay, thank you!!

Wonderful seamless stay. Check in was easy, host left instructions around about how to use amenities, access WiF, etc. It was great to be right on a small lake, made for very peaceful coffee on the dock in the mornings. The property is right off a busy road - so if car sounds bother you it’s something to be aware of, but did not impact our stay. Great spot for trips to Sebago or downtown Portland.

Overall our stay was great. The house was clean and spacious. The view of the pond is gorgeous. We were able to quickly get in touch with the owner to troubleshoot an issue. I will note that the house is on a very busy road and it is quite loud, even inside the house.

The house was beautiful and the lake is gorgeous. The morning views of the sun on the lake were stunning. The house was very clean and well stocked. We were a bit disappointed that the hot tub was a little run down, and there were swarms of insects under the cover so we couldn’t go in. But the pool table and game machine made up for it. Glenn was very communicative. A storm knocked out our power for a bit and caused some water pooling in the basement. Glenn was reachable immediately and offered to help. Overall a wonderful stay, and we’d definitely recommend!

The home is beautiful. In the photos, it really doesn’t show from the view of the dock, how bad the water is. We thought that the kids would have been able to swim from the dock or play in the water - unfortunately, because of the moss/muck on the bottom, they weren’t able to at all. There was sand in the hot tub when we got there. The host was wonderful ensuring that it was taken care of right away so they at least had that to play in. The home was immaculate though, and our family had a wonderful time for this staycation. We appreciate how accommodating and centrally located the house was.

Beautiful house for families, we had a great time. Glenn is an amazing host, communication 10/10. There’s two kitchens and two laundry rooms which made everything easier for us. The grill and private beach area was also nice to have right by the water.
