About this property

Lovely, Sprawling Log Home On Pretty, Pristine Trickey Pond.

Originally a modest log cabin, this home has been expanded to a generous 6 bedroom home with lake views from all living spaces. A pleasant mix of rustic and contemporary charm, this is an unforgettably pretty place to stretch out and enjoy the wonders of Trickey Pond, a true gem of the Lakes Region. A well-maintained deck stretches across the entire back of the home, wrapping around one side into a huge dining area (accommodates 10-12) with party-sized gas grill just a few steps below. Beyond the deck is a sweeping green lawn with the perfect combination: expansive water views with total privacy on either side. Beyond, 182 ft of private waterfront connects you to one of Maine's cleanest lakes, with a gradual shallow entry that is perfect for young children. Included in your rental fee are a canoe, two kayaks, 2 youth and 2 adult standup paddle boards with room for a motorboat at the dock. Back inside the house, take your pick: water-gazing from the dramatic 2-story living room, meal-making in a huge country kitchen, ping-pong-playing on the "other side" in the game room, complete with a second kitchen and bar. In between, a private office with water views means even the workaholics will be happy. This is a perfect house to spread out in. In perfect contrast to the privacy on the lake side, the house is on a residential street, perfect for walking, biking, stroller-pushing and meeting great neighbors. This is a safe, friendly neighborhood just 10 minutes from the village of Naples (groceries, shopping, dining, gas) 30 minutes to the quaint town of Bridgeton, 45 minutes to the dining, cultural, coastal offerings of Portland. Or, head west to mountain trails and vistas. So much to see and do within one hour of your tranquil Trickey Pond hub.

Our 2 family vacation at Leaning Pines is always the highlight of our year! The property is well maintained, large enough for 4 kids and 4 adults to have their own space (even on rainy days), and has a great outdoor area and amenities. We hope to continue coming back to this house every year. Thank you Lori for being a great property owner!

This house is absolutely breath taking. Situated perfectly on the lake we enjoy everything the property has to offer! Swimming, loon watching, sunrises, paddle boarding and if it rains - a double elimination ping pong tournament. With plenty of room for everyone to spread out and an endless amount of activities this house checks ALL the boxes. Lori, the owner, is amazing as well. Responsive, accommodating, and easy to talk to. We can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful Naples week

We love staying at Leaning Pines. It is always clean and we love the location. The yard is shady with waterfront access which was more important when the grandkids were smaller but they all love now anyway! The owner is always responsive should you have a problem too. This was not our first time and won't be our last visit to lovely Naples.

Oasis in Naples

We have stayed at this property the last coupe of years and it is a GEM. Lori is attentive and has thought of everything. Kitchen is nicely equipped with everything you need to cook a large or small meal. Questions are answered with either the adorable signage around the property or the detailed binder so there is no guesswork as to how something works, where to find things, or what to do upon checkout. We had a lovely vacation and we look forward to coming back year after year!

Second stay as good as the first - already rebooked!

This is our second time staying at Leaning Pines and it was just as wonderful as the first time. There was a small glitch when we got there but Lori reached out immediately and it was no problem at all. She is great to work with and the property is just beautiful. We actually booked 2023 while we were there as there was an opening and we grabbed it before it was gone. I've rented many VRBOs over the years and this is by far the best property/location and owner.

Amazing Vacation

Loved our family vacation at Leaning Pines on Trickey Pond. The house was perfect for our needs. It’s a little bit unusual in its set-up, but that’s what made it so charming! It’s well stocked, from towels/basic bath items to paper goods and every type of cooking gadget or utensil you’ll ever need! The ping pong table/bar area was also well stocked for entertainment. Toys were enjoyed by all! Lots of outside toys as well! Water was beautiful- very clear and perfect for swimming. Fishing was great! Owner was extremely responsive and easy to communicate with. The house is well loved and we appreciated that! Hope to return again!

Annual Family Maine Vacation

Leaning Pines is a great setup for families. There is lots of room to spread out. We were two grandparents, four parents, one adult sibling and four who were four years old and under. The home is very well stocked with kitchen items. There is a small sandy beach for littles ones to enter the water and a dock close by for them to walk back and forth to. And the float makes for good training for paddling from the dock with life vests learning to swim. Plenty of life jackets, kayaks, a canoe and a paddle board and more. Campfires with s’mores were fun, as were adult hangouts after the kids went to bed. The only challenge is the way the bedrooms are laid out on the second floor for bathroom access. Overall, the best place we have stayed at in Maine. And the owner, Lori, is very easy to work with.

Five GLOWING stars, HIGHLY Recommend

This property was absolutely perfect! There were 5 adults and 5 children sleeping at this home and there was ample space for everyone to spread out and at the same time the rooms were big enough that everyone could congregate in one room to be together. The outdoor space was stunning (chef's kiss). The floating mat was a TON of fun for everyone - lots of flips without worrying if the kids are going to hit their heads and it was easy for everyone of varying ages to get on. The dock was a perfect place to drink your morning coffee and the deck outside was sprawling. The house is beautifully appointed, and there are no questions left unanswered. A sweet welcome package greeted us when we walked in, and everything was labeled so we never had to guess or open every cabinet to wonder where things were. Lori was extremely pleasant to communicate with, very responsive, and I wish she was closer so we could meet in person! I highly recommend this wonderful property if you are looking for a place to stay in Naples, or in that area. You will NOT be disappointed.

Fantastic Week

Incredible location. Great place for the children to enjoy the water. Everyone had a week they will long remember. The kids had a great time in and on the water. Diving off the floating dock, kayaking and using the paddleboards and the canoe. It was great that the various sized life jackets are provided. Gave the parents and grandparents much comfort. The house worked really well with the number and variety of beds. The ping pong table was a plus on the one rainy day we had. Trickey Pond has the cleanest, clearest water I have ever seen! Would have giiven this more than five stars if that was an option!

Leaning Pines - Extra Special

This was the fourth time we rented Leaning Pines and will probably not be the last! The lake is so beautiful and the house has plenty of room to spread out. The owner makes every attempt for your comfort and enjoyment. It's not a noisy, crazy type of lakeside, great for relaxing, kayaking, paddle boards, water skiing, etc. We loved our time in Naples and hope we can return again! RMN from CT

This is a gem!

There are lots of good reviews that let you know all about this place. Here are some things I'll pull out to emphasize: It is very rare to find something this size with direct walk-in water access on such a clean lake. And with a lawn to play games. And a firepit. (and of course, lots of other great amenities but those are key). Lori helped us find a paddleboat from a neighbor - reach out to her if there is something you are uncertain about, any small little thing that would help make your stay even better and I bet she can help. A number of places I've stayed close off significant amounts of space for their things in closets, dressers and cabinets making it hard for you to organize food, clothes etc. Especially given that this is a place that you are staying for a week or so, it's really nice to have access to these kinds of spaces. Wifi is strong. We didn't have any challenges. The setup is a bit unique so just make sure you are comfortable with the flow of the house vis-a-vis bedrooms. Thank you, Lori for providing a place for us to gather with friends and family we could not otherwise enjoy all in one place. It was truly wonderful.

Another Amazing Week

This is our second summer spending a week at Leaning Pines on Trickey Pond. And once again, the house was spotless and stocked with everything we needed. The water was just as clear and pristine as we remembered it to be. And Lori, as always, was wondeful to work with. We feel so lucky to have spent another week on Trickey Pond on this beautiful property, making memories that will last a lifetime.

About the host

Hosted by Lori Miller

Host profile image
My late husband and I bought our vacation home in March of 1990. We chose it based on the unique meandering layout, rustic character and proximity to either mountains or coastline within an hour’s drive. We had absolutely no clue how special that snow-covered site was until we made our first trip back from Philadelphia the following June. When we saw our gorgeous view (brilliantly blue Trickey Pond lapping up against our private waterfront with nothing but natural shoreline on the opposite side) we practically did cartwheels in our new back yard. I still feel that thrill – glee mixed with gratitude – when I first arrive, even after 32 summers.

Why they chose this property

Trickey Pond is renowned as one of Maine's cleanest lakes. The opposite shoreline is still wild and untouched as far as the eye can see. The road is paved and lined with homes, runners, walkers, cyclists, baby stroller-pushers...it's a real neighborhood and everyone's friendly. In contrast, the back yard is extremely private, while offering expansive views of the lake. The north end of the lake has 2 islands, one hosts a returning loon couple, the other has a rope swing only reachable by boat...or kayak...or canoe...or stand-up paddle board!

What makes this property unique

In the summer of 2021, the driveway and walkway were repaved, exterior re-stained, the last of the original windows updated and second-floor carpets replaced with plank flooring. On the lake side, grand stone steps to the water's edge were added to make pond access safer and easier. The distinctive steps are actually repurposed curbs from downtown Portland. This fall, 2022, I will upgrade the upstairs bathrooms.
