About this property

Come to Casco, Maine, a quaint town with a population of 3750. We offer a picturesque and idyllic setting off Thompson Lake on 'The Heath', known for canoes, kayaks, birds, and fishing. NO MOTORBOATS! You will lodge on a large parcel with 885' of private lake frontage and sunset view.

The Heath is a small, secluded body of water that offers pleasant meandering along its hourglass-shaped shoreline. Paddling along the forested portions of the shoreline you will hear the raucous calls of red squirrels and blue jays mixing with the pleasing calls of chickadees and nuthatches. There are a few small docks along the shoreline, the occasional canoe or kayak pulled up into the brush, and only the occasional flash of a camp hidden in the woods. For the most part the Heath is a very wild and wonderful paddling experience. Fishing is excellent on the Heath: Pickerel, Chain Whitefish, Landlocked Salmon, Largemouth bass, Northern Pike. Four canoes and two kayaks available for use on the premises.

Thompson Lake Marina is located only 1/2 mile from the house, where you can rent a motor boat or pontoon and enjoy the day on beautiful, crystal clear Thompson Lake. It is in the top 5% cleanest lakes in Maine.

Ammenities included are: linens and towels provided, full kitchen with dishes, pots and pans, large screen tv, books, board games, internet access, washer and dryer, use of 4 canoes and 2 kayaks with paddles, onsite fishing poles,

Great getaway.

This is our second summer at the house. Janet was very responsive to our commutations and the house is neat, clean and well stocked with kitchen ware. It is a quiet, cozy, comfortable location. And for those who like fishing, the Heath is some of the best bass fishing we have ever enjoyed.

Quiet Retreat

Nice quiet place to relax and enjoy time away. Our first day was rainy so we enjoyed time inside and playing games. We fished almost every day with decent luck. The large porch is great for enjoying the outdoors but would be nice if the view of the water was a little better, being the middle of summer all the leaves are on and everything is full limiting the view. The walk down to the water is a decent length but overall not bad. The rooms are a little small but worked for 4 of us. The lighting inside is quite dim though.

Little slice of heaven

Cabin was wonderful, fishing was awesome! We enjoyed the cabin so much that outside of going to Naples and Bridgton for dinner and shopping we stayed at the cabin fishing and kayaking the entire week! We got to see the resident fox almost every evening and plenty of beautiful birds and hawks, as well as the loons on the lake! If you are looking to relax and unwind this is definitely the place to go! Janet was great and was quick to respond to any questions we had!

We didn’t want to leave!!

The cabin was everything they said it was and more. We have three teenagers and going somewhere with everyone being happy is hard to find but when we were loading up to come home everyone said they didn’t want to leave and then when can we come back. It was close to things to do if you wanted but far enough away to relax and sit by the fire or go out in a canoe and fish. We can’t wait to come back.

About the host

Hosted by Janet Perkins

We are an active family who loves the outdoors, nature and peace and quiet here in Maine. We recently sold a rental property in the city and converted it to a rental property in beautiful Casco, Maine. We want to share this beautiful, scenic hideaway with others who have the same passion for the outdoors we do.

Why they chose this property

This property has it all. The minute you arrive, you are awed by the silence of all the hustle and bustle of life. It is the ultimate getaway for those who want a week or two away from the busyness of every day life. There is nothing like the sights and sounds of nature with no neighbors in sight.

What makes this property unique

This property is unique because it is located on The Heath, situated at the end of 12 mile Thompson Lake. It has not been developed and is a very private and special gem. You will fall in love with the deck view. This is a fisherman's dream. You can canoe, kayak, walk the private road, visit the nearby Mariner and dine out in the neighboring towns of Windham or Naples, with 10 minutes of the property.
