This was our 2nd stay at this fabulous Swan Pond cottage! Located down a dirt road, adjacent to a wildlife filled marsh, the serene setting with beautiful pond views is so peaceful and quiet. We enjoyed rowing the canoe down to Clancey's and then stopped at the island to watch hundreds of baby crabs as they darted about and into holes in the sand. Lazy afternoons reading in the hammock, evenings by the fire pit, enjoying the rainbow after an afternoon storm in addition to the sunrises & sunsets added to the experience on Swan Pond. The owners, Peggy & Russ, have created a wonderful escape from the everyday craziness of life. The cottage is clean, well equipped and dog friendly. I enjoyed our walks every morning & evening and we look forward to next year and another perfect vacation!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful home on the pond! The view was stunning and so peaceful, it made for the perfect backdrop to our long weekend. I was initially a little nervous about bringing our toddler given the waterfront location, but the yard was thoughtfully and securely fenced in. It gave us peace of mind without taking away from the amazing view.The house itself was clean, comfortable, and spacious—ideal for our family. We also loved how close it was to the beach and nearby recreational areas. Everything we needed for a relaxing and fun weekend was right at our fingertips. 10/10 recommend this property, make sure you catch a sunrise over the pond!

This is our second time coming to the cottage and we are going to try to book it for the fall. Also, we love the quiet and the pond. Everything about this little cottage is amazing if I had the money I would try so hard to buy this property.

We really enjoyed staying at Peggy’s pretty hideaway on Swan Pond. Loved being right on the water - great view and it was easy to get our kayaks in and out for a paddle. House was very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend!

Beautiful location

My husband and I stayed for a fall weekend. The cottage was clean and well appointed. The location on Swan Pond was beautiful -- sunrises over the pond were spectacular and could be viewed from the deck or anywhere in the house as well!. The dirt road approach was not as bad as some reported if taken slow. We had no problem with it. Very peaceful and relaxing. Thanks!

Beautiful home with amazing views

We stayed here with our dog and absolutely loved it! The house is beautiful and very cozy with lovely views of the pond. The location is fantastic and nothing was better than reading a book on the hammock and watching the sunrise. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone, especially if you have a dog and look forward to staying here again!

A beautiful vacation property

This fabulous property was perfect for our 5-night getaway! The house was immaculate and included towels & linens, air conditioning, 2 kayaks & a canoe for exploring Swan Pond, in addition to beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers & life jackets. I was happy to be able to bring my dog and she loved hanging out with us on the patio while enjoying the water views and nature all around. This was my idea of a perfect vacation home - it was well equipped, had comfortable furniture and the owners responded quickly to any questions I had. I look forward to another vacation in this well-kept home on Swan Pond!

Birder’s delight!

We came up in October for a long weekend. The house is just as pictured, and Peggy was a gracious host. The highlight for me was waking up to both a beautiful view of the lake and an amazing array of birds. The sunrises over Swan Pond are spectacular. Our 11-year-old daughter loved the hammock. Just a cautionary note- watch out for ticks! It’s in the woods. All in all a great vacation.

The house is very well taken care of and very clean. Close to beaches and very quiet. I think the trees should be trimmed so you can get a complete view of the pond.
