About this property

Bar Harbor & Bangor are close but you won’t want to leave Beech Hill Pond!

Beech Hill Pond is a beautiful, crystal clear lake that is 4.5 miles long, 12.1 miles around and 0.5 miles wide. This lake is great for kayaking, swimming, fishing or just watching and listening to the loons call.

Whether you are sitting at the table, on the deck/dock, or shore, you will be mesmerized by the beauty of this pristine lake. The front lawn is used for gathering around the campfire, playing corn hole, watching the swimmers and boaters or just relaxing in the hammock.

Our camp offers all the comforts of home (except WiFi and this is by choice - we want people to relax and not be glued to their phones, tablets, computers). The main bedroom consists of two queen beds with a door to a private old stone patio. The second bedroom (three twin beds) is access by climbing a ship ladder - a perfect place for your teenagers!

Please enjoy our dock with stairs to enter the sandy bottom water, propane gas grill, hammock, Adirondack chairs, fire pit, wood, fully applianced kitchen, flat screen satellite TV, DVR, Wii gaming system, linens, hair dryer, washer/dryer

*Must be able to climb stairs* There are three steps into camp, three stairs into the main bedroom, ship ladder to the upstairs bedroom, and eight steps off the deck.

Our camp is located 1/2 mile down the West Shore Road (dirt) and a few camps away from the public boat launch.

If you are looking for a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday living, we welcome you to our camp. You will actually feel your blood pressure lower and stress lighten as you turn on to the dirt road.

Our second visit was even better than our first!

This was our second trip to The Beech House and we loved it even more than the first! The location on the lake is perfect. Not only are there beautiful views from the property, but it feels really private. Deb and Tim were so accommodating and the house is well stocked- we had everything we needed for a wonderful stay! We would highly recommend this wonderful place!

Paradise in Maine!

My family and I had the best time. The property was beautiful - so clean and well maintained. The view from anywhere in the house was amazing. Glorious windows with great breezes. An incredibly well stocked house as far as supplies - kitchen was a dream for preparing meals. Plenty of space for two adults and 2 kids (ages 11 and 12). It was so comfortable with the perfect amount of seating. The location on the lake is ideal. Quiet and serene. Nice deck to sit and eat. Great yard space for camp fires. Morning sunrises were amazing!

Little slice of heaven on earth

We LOVED our stay at the Beech House. The owners made the reservation and check in process so easy and the house was stocked with everything we could have needed. The setting is incredible and we loved swimming in the lake and having campfires each night. If you want to unplug and enjoy a freshwater lake. - this is the place. We can't wait to go back next year.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
My husband and I grew up in Ellsworth, Maine. Most of my childhood was spent on Branch lake (a nearby lake in Ellsworth) fishing, swimming and canoeing. When our family had the opportunity to purchase this camp, we were thrilled because now our family will get to make our own memories on the water. We live about 40 mins away so Otis is a wonderful escape from our everyday living.

Why they chose this property

This camp was perfect for us because it's close to my husbands work as well as close to other family members who live on the lake. We love our location because of the privacy, distance away from the dirt road and the 150 feet of open views of the lake. For years we have been renting different camps all around Beech Hill pond and now we finally have our own to share with people. We might be biased but it's perfect!

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the amazing views from the huge picture windows and sliders inside the camp. Our favorite place to eat is sitting on the deck watching the boats and birds. Inside the camp the kitchen/dining area wooden ceiling is just beautiful. It gives the camp a very warm and welcoming feeling.
