Just like I remember
We had an amazing stay at the cabin. I went to "Camp Brookline" every summer for 20+ years from birth and it was amazing to be back. My kids would spend all day at the beach and town is so close, we'll be back every year.

About the host

Hosted by Liz

Host profile image
We're a local family who have raised 3 boys in Bridgton. They're all out of college now so we purchased this cottage so we'd have lake access as well as walking distance to town. The sandy beach and ability to walk to town is what's most appealing. The cottage is original 1950's era, which is what we love and in 2021 we've added heat and A/C to extend our season. We've updated the bath, floors, appliances, kitchen, fixtures, bedding, furniture, etc. to make it fresh, while keeping the original charm.

Why they chose this property

The screened porch is the best part of the home with a beautiful breeze and plenty of room for dining or just hanging out.

What makes this property unique

The outdoor shower is a true gem, with room to change in the 'dressing area' of the shower. Makes for a less steamy house and plenty of privacy.
