About this property

Waterfront, dog-friendly cabin on China Lake with dock, canoe & firepit

The lapping waters of China Lake, the stirring call of the loons - this is the soundtrack to your stay at this beautiful waterfront cabin in Central Maine. In this special spot mere steps from the lake's edge, you'll spend your days swimming, fishing, and taking out the provided canoe from your very own dock.

You'll find this seasonal home on China Neck, the peninsula that sits in the heart of China Lake. The east-facing position makes the house a showcase of morning sunrises over the water, best enjoyed on the enclosed porch a mere 10 feet from the water's edge.

Bring your family for a magical summer of watching eagles overhead from the hammock, barbecuing and picnicking among the trees, and roasting s'mores nightly around the outdoor firepit. Inside, you'll be treated to both atmosphere and comfort, including a well-equipped kitchen, a lakefront dining space, and a gas fireplace to curl up next to in the living room. Complimentary high-speed WiFi is even on hand to help you plan your daily adventures.

Great Small Camp On China Lake

Extremely clean and orderly camp which was nice to come home to every night after working the Common Ground Fair. One bedroom with full and one with bunk beds was perfect for our group of 3.

Great stay!

Cabin was easy to locate. Access was simple and instructions to get there were completely accurate. Very clean and quiet. Dock was exactly what we needed (maybe add a pic on ad so people know what to expect). Follow up before , during and after stay was excellent. We had a great time and place was awesome.
